If you've any thoughts on this at all, please share them.

4/8 in Deviant Smash Bros. group pics!

- CARNIVAL - (Anthro Group)
- Tricky to draw - especially at the mouth - but I managed. Good practice with fangs, too.

Standard - Reptile Fire
- Sends five thick curving lines of fire outward, which bend toward foes as they travel. Unlike Bahamut's Cherry Blossom, though, this can be aimed forward or upward, but moves slower.
Side - Splash
- A slow but powerful burst of water from the shovel. Comparable to Charizard's Rock Smash.
Up - Shovel Drill
- Spins while holding shovel like a drill, launching self in the direction it's aimed in.
Down - Pitfall
- Only usable on the ground. Digs a trap that will bury the foe if stepped on. Can only have one pitfall dug at a time.
FS - Death Roll
- Lunges forth quickly. Any foes caught will be subdued by a flurry of attacks, then sent flying. On one foe, it's a surefire KO.

- ROCKY - (XDRAGOON)
- Rocky seems to be one of the few that doesn't have projectile attacks...Well, I guess that means you wouldn't want to get near him.

Standard - Clawfire
- Builds power, then swings claws forth, emitting a burst of fire as they slash. If charged at the max, will take damage as well.
Side - Burst Fist
- A rapid lunging attack, dealing a hard horizontal trajectory. Can also be used as a recovery.
Up - Flare Wing
- Hands emit fire as Rocky dives upward. Fire pulses outward at the peak of the dive.
Down - Flare Kick
- Lunges forth foot-first. In the air, will kick-dive at a downward angle.
FS - X-Clawfire
- First, will try to catch foes with a close-range slash. Any foes caught will be subject to a succession of fiery slashes. The finisher packs immense power.

- KEEMEATA - (Pokémon)
- One of Pokémon Trainer Yoshitaka's buddies, and possibly the lightest of the three here. But, being a Latias, she'd be great at recovery.

Standard - Mist Ball
- Hurls a downy ball at an arc. Struck foes may lose power for a little while.
Side - Ice Beam
- Charges, then fires a freezing beam forth. The length of the beam depends on the charge.
Up - Fly
- Dives upward, then backflips and enters a glide.
Down - Pokémon Change
- Switches with Jans.
FS - Triple Finish
- Joins Jans and Firewing in a Psychic/Thunder/Close Combat combo.

- JANS - (Pokémon)
- The second of Yoshitaka's team here, and the fastest. He might not be as strong as his partners, though.

Standard - Spark
- Builds power, then dives forth in an electric charge. Much like Pikachu's Skull Bash.
Side - Dig
- On the ground, will hide underground. Upon button release, will lunge out in a surprise attack.
Up - Aerial Ace
- A rapid upward dive. Given the speed, it's as if Jans teleports.
Down - Pokémon Change
- Switches with Firewing.
FS - Triple Finish
- Joins Keemeata and Firewing in a Psychic/Thunder/Close Combat combo.

- FIREWING - (Pokémon)
- The power-player of Yoshitaka's team. Some of his attacks may be a bit slower than Keemeata's.

Standard - Flare Blitz
- Possibly Firewing's fastest power attack. However, upon collision with a foe, Firewing will take damage.
Side - Rock Smash
- Kicks a boulder upward, then breaks it into pieces, which go flying forth. Not strong, but a nice distraction.
Up - Sky Uppercut
- Dives upward in an upward punch. May charge a bit to increase power and diving height.
Down - Pokémon Change
- Switches with Keemeata.
FS - Triple Finish
- Joins Keemeata and Jans in a Psychic/Thunder/Close Combat combo.

- B-MAN - (Pokémon)
- One of two stand-alone lightweights of the Pokémon category. His attacks focus on hit rate, but his special moves play more with range.

Standard - Pay Day
- Quickly scatters koban forth. Keep tapping to continue throwing koban. Nowhere near strong, but a good distraction.
Side - Allure Seed
- Throws a seed forth. Any foes hit will suffer confusion, with directions mixed around.
Up - Faint Attack
- Directs a small sparkle, then warps over to the sparkle rapidly, striking away any foes in the way.
Down - Knockback Orb
- Readies the orb, which then casts a harsh pulse, knocking foes and attacks back. Weak, but can get B-Man out of tight spots.
FS - Trawl Orb
- All items on the field (and then some) are engulfed in barriers, and spiral around the stage to B-Man's feet. Foes are struck away from items on contact. New items usually consist of Food.

- ECLIPSE - (Pokémon)
- Hehehe...Of course, you'd have expected this. But no, he doesn't use the same "high risk high reward" power as the Lucario in Brawl. No, that's for two other Pokémon.

Standard - Aura Sphere
- Charges, then hurls an Aura Sphere. Pierces through foes.
Side - Ice Punch
- Throws a very strong punch capable of freezing any foes hit.
Up - Angel Wing
- Generates wings with Aura, then dives in the directions given by the player. At the end of the flight, the wings are thrust outward, then disappear.
Down - Dark Pulse
- Charges, then emits a close-range pule of darkness. Very powerful. Becomes a Light Pulse in Archangel form.
FS - Archangel
- Awakens his true identity as an "angel of the moon". Powered up like this, he can perform two more midair jumps, his attacks gain more range and a bit higher hit rate, and his chances of flinching are halved.

- ZENMEI - (Ninmenjushin)
- Main character of Ninmenjushin, obviously. That emblem is the official symbol of Iwaki, BTW. Also, he's the only character with a shield (that Wolf's Mirror). It oughta be bigger than that, though...

Standard - Bubble Wave
- Casts a wave of large bubbles, which drift outward. They burst on contact.
Side - Crescent Wave
- Launches three tall, quick waves forth from Tsukikage.
Up - Ascension
- Rise upward in a pillar of light. The pillar goes through ceilings and floors, but isn't that strong.
Down - Time Trap
- Claps Tsukikage and Wolf's Mirror, casting a time field forth. Any foe caught in it will be halted. All damage done will be applied when the effect wears off.
FS - Celestial Chain
- Augments his magic powers with the Celestial Chain. Tsukikage doubles in length, and special moves can be double-cast. Also, evasion time lasts a bit after the dodge ends.
