Next up, let's cover the third member of Samus and Kreatz's trio, Mauk. Mauk is a huge hulking ape-man with tremendous strength and a sharp mind to go with it. His species were, up until recently, still in their proto-Neanderthal stage, and not considered sapient. Mauk is one of the first of his race to become a marine in the Federation, and feels protective of the Chozo for their advocacy for his people.

In the first part of the story, Mauk mainly uses his physical body to attack, slamming hard into his opponents and lifting them high into the air, also jumping quite high and moving with agility. Later on, after a time skip, he is seeing carrying around a large rifle-like weapon and mounted guns on his shoulders.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

Standard B: Slam

He will thrust forward with his large fists, smashing them to the ground hard.

Side B: Energy Rifle

He will hold up his rifle weapon and shoot forward an explosive projectile.

Up B: Leap

He will use his powerful legs to jump up into the air and slam back down.

Down B: Shoulder Cannons

He will activate his shoulder-mounted cannons and fire them at oncoming enemies, which will fire as a series of beams.

Final Smash: Operation Overkill

The same attack as Kreatz's, just with a little more force to it.

Entrance: He will leap down from above, wearing his camouflage.

Taunts: Up, he will raise his rifle into the air in a war chant. Side, he will cross his arms and look solemn. Down, he will crouch and look around carefully.

Kirby Hat: His hairy mane.

Kart: Based on Samus's ship.

Special Move: He will reach out with his fists and slam someone nearby, making them spin out.

Spirit Battle: On Federation Headquarters, with Samus and Kreatz.

Victory Screen: He will lower his weapon and stand proudly, saying "Mission complete."

Losing Screen: He will stagger as if injured and fall to the ground.

Color Swaps: His normal appearance, the same with red fur, the same with white fur, wearing his camouflage cloak, his older armored form, with the same red fur, with the same white fur, with black fur.

Thanks for reading! Next up, Samus and Joey's resident mechanic.
