Character Sheet: May/Brendan

MAY/BRENDAN


Starting now, we'll be going back through our main protagonists of the Pokemon series and re-evaluating them based on the distinct differences that make their games unique from each other. Our characters will be:

1. Red/Leaf

2. Ethan/Kris/Lyra

3. May/Brendan

4. Dawn/Lucas

5. Hilbert/Hilda

6. Nate/Rosa

7. Serena/Calem

8. Elio/Selene

9. Gloria/Victor

10. Florian/Juliana

11. Solana/Lunick

12. Kellyn/Kate

13. Ben/Summer

Next up, we have Brendan and May, the protagonists of Ruby and Sapphire, Emerald, and OmegaRuby and AlphaSapphire. Whichever one you don’t pick also acts as your main rival and the child of the professor who lives next door. The moveset will mostly come from the distinct unique aspects of their home games, though May’s anime appearance will also be factored in.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Luxury Ball

Will hold the opponents in a little bit longer.

 

Side B: Double Battle

Two Pokemon will come out and perform an HM move one after another.

 

Up B: Latias and Latios

Based on ORAS, where Latias and Latios act as your Ride Pokemon when using fly.

 

Down B: Contest Twirl

The player and a Pokemon will perform a dance twirl that attacks in the process.

 

Final Smash: Hoenn’s Calamity

Could also be just a team attack with Sceptile, Blaziken, and Swampert, but I do still like the idea of using the Box Pokemon instead. This would have Kyogre and Groudon start fighting in the background, causing a storm across the stage, ending when Rayquaza appears.

 

Entrance: Stepping out of Birch’s Lab (you know, maybe Fly entrance would work better for all of these. Hmm).

 

Taunts: Up, performing a contest finale move. Side, letting out two Pokemon as if for a double battle. Down, holding and looking over a red or blue orb.

 

Kirby Hat: May’s bandana and hair.

 

Kart: Based on Mega Latias/Latios

Special Move: Double Battle

 

Spirit Battle: On Sky Pillar

 

Victory Screen: Celebrating with their Pokemon.

Losing Screen: "You whited out!"

 

Color Swaps: May’s RS look, Brendan’s RS look, May’s Emerald look, Brendan’s Emerald look, May’s ORAS look, Brendan’s ORAS look, May’s contest outfit, Brendan’s contest outfit.

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Dawn and Lucas go platinum!
