Character Sheet: Gen VII Standalone Legendaries

NECROZMA/MAGEARNA/MARSHADOW/ZERAORA

And now, we come to the standalone Legendaries of the generation, which mostly consists of one base game Legendary and three Mythicals. First up, we have Necrozma, an anti-matter being from beyond our universe, believed to possibly be an Ultra Beast, that can open Ultra Wormholes, and feeds upon the energy given off by Solgaleo and Lunala. It can take control of them both, taking on their forms, and has an ultimate form called Ultra Necrozma.

Standard B: Prismatic Laser

Side B: Psycho Cut

Up B: Gravity

Down B: N-Solarizer/Lunarizer (changes its forms)

Final Smash: Ultra Necrozma's Ultra Blast

After that we have Magearna, a small gear-based automaton that you might find in various steampunk-type stories and settings.

Standard B: Flash Cannon

Side B: Gyro Ball

Up B: Magnetic Flux

Down B: Iron Defense

Final Smash: Mega Magearna

Next is Marshadow, the ghost of a fallen soldier (with elements of both Polynesian warriors and Roman centurions), that haunts battlefields and preys on those who desecrate them.

Standard B: Shadow Punch

Side B: Close Combat

Up B: Shadow Sneak

Down B: Drain Punch

Final Smash: Never-Ending Nightmare

And finally, we have Zeraora, a speed-focused Electric Pokemon, with some possible basis on a cheetah, but really its mostly just kind of a generic cat furry that you might find in something like Digimon or Sonic.

Standard B: Thunder Punch

Side B: Wild Charge

Up B: Agility

Down B: Volt Switch

Final Smash: Mega Zeraora

Entrances would mostly be Poke Balls, probably, except for Necrozma emerging from an Ultra Wormhole. Taunts would be tied into their respective theming. Kirby Hats would be: Kirby made from Necrozma crystal, Magearna's gears, Marshadow's ghostly helmet, and Zeraora's head fur. Karts would be the Poke Ball car, but I think Necrozma and Zeraora would just be running themselves, with their individual iconic moves. Spirit Battles would be on Altar of the Sunne/Moone, Aether Paradise, S.S. Prime Treasure, and Pasio Hotel respectively. Victory Screens would be tied into their theming, and losing screens would mostly be them fainted (Necrozma would be its defeat animation). Color Swaps would be their standard and shiny, plus a few extra standard colors.

Thanks for reading! Next up, Meltan races into battle at the speed of Mercury.
