Oh man, this doesn't exist yet? SWEET IT BE MINE
Shy Guy, and iconic character from the Mario series. From the new mario kart to the new mario party, he's slowly being included as a playable character everywhere. Some may write him off as a common enemy. Some may claim characters like Toad have a better chance in the Mario universe
I completely agree. BUT I'm making this thread because Shy Guy is awesome, not because he has stellar chances of being included. I understand he probably won't be a playable character, but, we've had stranger turns.
waaaay back in the old days, before smashbros.com had revealed PKMN trainer, I made a Charizard for Brawl thread. People called me crazy. People flamed it up and down. People, in the end, ate their words.
So here's to the hoping for the crazy! Shy Guy for brawl!
MOVESET
Ok, This is kinda on the spot, but here I go! I'll prolly edit this later, or put up movesets people post
For now, just his specials
B UP
PROPELLER
A propeller extrudes from the top of shy guy's head, like so
and shy guy gets a quick boost upwards. it only lasts a few seconds, but movement can be controlled while in the air. Enemies struck by the propeller blade take small amounts of damage, but are knocked back sideways quite a bit
B NEUTRAL
MASK THROW
This is an interesting move. This works around the concept that shy guy's mask regenerates. every once in a while, you can shed your mask, and use it as a projectile.
When you hit B, if it's been long enough since your last throw, you turn away from the camera and tug your mask off, slowly, now holding it as an item, as a new one takes it's place from the void that is your face.
then, you can throw it. It is heavy, and slow moving, but does good damage and knockback, and shatters on impact. Think soccer ball from brawl, but scaled down damage/knockback for a move instead.
idk, maybe a 20 sec cooldown? Idk how to balance the cooldown.
B SIDE
SKATE
This may be a liiitle farfetched, but hey, I'll grab specials from where I can. Anyone play Mario Kart double dash? Remember Sherbet Land? I do.
there, it's a real thing.
Think of egg roll, kinda, but it slows down between strides. When you hit someone, it's got fair knockback, but it also stuns you for a short second as well, because you get knocked off of your skates. it is only a little faster than running.
B DOWN
TIMID
ok, this one took some research.
look up mufti guy, from yoshi's island
this is the one
Anyways, think almost like a counter, but different
When you push B DOWN, a bit of a slow animation starts where shy guy reaches behind his head and pulls this bush out, holding it above his head. If this bush gets hit by an attack (one strike) it takes the attack for shy guy, and explodes into a bunch of petals, that obscure a small amount of screen (think smoke ball effect but petals)
If shy guy doesn't get attacked, he places the bush on the ground, where it stays until hit by a move, that it will block and explode, like previously explained. He can only have 2 out at a time. if there are two on the stage, you cannot use this move.
you can use this in the air, and the bush will fall to the ground from where you let go.
although this can block any attack, it can only block one attack. things like multi hits and explosions still get you. good for blocking that one charge shot, or falcon punch
FINAL SMASH
THE VOID
think captain falcon's final smash's exact hitbox and range, and how it slows down a bit and zooms in on falcon a bit when you use it.
The same thing happens to shy guy, except, he removes he mask, only facing one side of the screen (so you can't see). The player's who see it (in that falcon FS like range) stare in shock for a few seconds, while their damage rises very fast (think kirby cooking pot). then, they are completely stunned for another second, giving Shy Guy just enough time to do whatever he wants to them, while they recover from the shock.
Think, like this

but more extreme
This probably won't garuntee a kill from 0%, but from like 20 or 30, maybe.
Also, here are some user posted movesets!
