LEAH
And now we come to our new playable characters debuting in Generation VIII. We have three that are not part of the PokeDex this time. They are:
1. Akari/Rei
2. Jamie/River
3. Leah
Next, we have Leah, the barista and only real named character in Pokemon Café Remix besides the Pokemon patrons. She will basically be the catch-all character for all the unique mechanics the game provides, and she should be fairly similar in style to Lucy Fleetfoot from Trozei.
Here's the moveset I came up with:
Standard B: Coffee Swirl
Leah will swish with a spoon and a swirl of Pokemon head icons will be created in front of her, bashing anyone it comes in contact with.
Side B: Helping Paw
The helping paw item will appear in front of Leah, smacking another player.
Up B: Megaphone
Leah will blast her megaphone at the ground, throwing herself upward.
Down B: Sugar Cube
Leah will place down a sugar cube as a block in front of her that will shield her from one hit. On occasion, a different obstacle may pop up, requiring a couple more hits.
Final Smash: Order Up
Pokemon icons will fill the screen, damaging all players they touch. Leah’s player will be able to swirl them around, taking players with it.
Entrance: Ringing a leader bell.
Taunts: Up, using her megaphone to shout, “Order up!” Side, ringing the leader bell around. Down, sitting and enjoying a nice cup of coffee.
Kirby Hat: Leah’s hat, ponytail, and glasses.
Kart: A mobile coffee cart.
Special Move: Coffee Swirl.
Spirit Battle: On Pokemon Café.
Victory Screen: The level cleared screen from the game.
Losing Screen: Pouring out a cup of coffee and looking disgusted.
Color Swaps: Her main colors, a very noticeably “legally distinct” Starbucks uniform, and different coffee colors.
Thanks for reading! Next up, let’s start the PokeDex again. First up, Grookey sounds the drums of war!
