SSBB Moveset: Leon S. Kennedy

Leon S. Kennedy

--Character Description--

Character from Capcom's Resident Evil series.  Main character of RE4 and major character in RE2.  His appearance here is based on his RE4 appearance.  When I learned that third-party characters were in Brawl, I hoped for some appearance from the Resident Evil series, and Leon was my top choice.  He's armed with a shotgun and his knife, amongst others.  >

--Specials--

B: Shotgun - Leon shoots with his shotgun.  Good power, but short range and leaves him vulnerable for a few seconds afterwards.

B>: Lunge Kick - Leon lunges forward and delivers a fierce upwards Kick.

B^: Grappling Gun - Leon immediately shoots out a grappling hook from a pistol.  If the hook connects with a ledge, it pulls him upwards.  If the hook connects with an opponent, it immediately grabs on and plunges them earthwards.

Bv: Grenade - Leon tosses a grenade.  There is an equal chance of it being three different types: the first is a regular grenade like Snakes, the second is an incendiary grenade that bounces around shooting short-range curry-esque fireballs, and the third is a flash grenade that acts like a Deku Nut.

--Grabs--

Z: Grab

Z+A: Punch

Z^: Kick Up

Z>: Knife Slash+Throw

Zv: Throw Down +Piledriver!

Z<: Suplex.  Just like in the games.

--Final Smash--

"Chicago Typewriter"

Leon's outfit changes as he equips the ultimate weapon from RE4.  The typewriter automatically shoots hundreds of bullets without you pressing a single button; all you have to do is control Leon and move him so that the bullets are in range enough to hit opponents.  Leon is vulnerable, but good luck trying to get close!
