Character Sheet: Brycen

BRYCEN

Next up, we have Brycen, the Ice-type gym leader of Icirrus City in the first game. He is an actor (a method-acting Daniel Day-Lewis type) who quits being a gym leader to focus on his roles in the second game, though you can encounter him making a movie at PokeStar studios, so we have some to work with.

Here’s the moveset I came up with:

 

Standard B: Beartic

Using Frost Breath

 

Side B: Slip-and-Slide

Based on his ice-covered gym. He will be posing like an action here while doing it.

 

Up B: Flying Leap

He will slide off one of the ramps from his gym and go into an action movie leap.

 

Down B: Movie Strike

He will perform one of his staged attacks from his filming in PokeStar Studios.

 

Final Smash: Icirrus Gym Icicles

He will send out Vanilluxe, Beartic, and Cryogonal, which will freeze the stage.

 

Entrance: His opening line and pose.

 

Taunts: Mostly “legally distinct” famous movie lines and poses.

 

Kirby Hat: His hair

 

Kart: Based on Beartic

Special Move: Movie Strike

 

Spirit Battle: On White Forest (omega form), with his original team

 

Victory Screen: Standing and bowing as if having just finished a performance.

Losing Screen: Handing over his badge.

 

Color Swaps: His original look, Brycen-Man, various other “legally distinct” Hollywood outfits (possibly all based on Daniel Day-Lewis roles, since his original is definitely Hawkeye from Last of the Mohicans).

 

Thanks for reading! Next up, Drayden fights like a dragon!
