Sceptile is a gecko-based monster from the creature collecting RPG, Pokémon that made their debut in Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald in 2002 as the 3rd evolution of the game's Grass starter, Treecko. Sceptiles are said to revitalize trees and care for the plants of the forests & jungles. They are also nimble and can jump freely from branch to branch with minimal effort

[Forest Pokemon]
Sceptile is a fast paced character that keeps all players on their toes. They mix swift claw swipes, kicks, and a few unconventional moves to make combos out of any stray hit. Some of these attacks can be Dash Canceled to negate the endlag

[Leech]
Every 5th attack that lands Leeches the enemy, doing extra damage, knockback, & heals Sceptile equivalent to the damage of the hit. Plan moves accordingly to get comebacks & unexpected combo strings

[Crawl]
Sceptile can move forward & back while crouching

[Wallcling/Wallclimb]
Sceptile can cling to the wall when holding Jump towards a wall for a period of time. Additionally, they can climb up & down the wall during the cling

[Forward-Tilt]
Leap & slash forward. This can be Dash Canceled on hit

[Neutral-Air - (Iron Tail)]
Steel the tail & spin in a circular motion. This has Soft Armor that can't be broken by weaker attacks

[Up-Air - (Bullet Seed)]
Spew explosive seeds upwards to multi-hit enemies. The 4rd seed has kill power

[Down-Air]
Flip kick downwards. If this lands, Sceptile bounces upwards and can cancel into an Aerial including itself. This knocks grounded enemies upwards and airborne enemies downwards

[Forward-Strong - (Drain Punch)]
Collect energy & punch forward. This heals Sceptile regardless if Leech is active or not. If it is, the healing is doubled

[Side-Special - (X-Scissor)]
Blink in a diagonal & slash at the end. The slash hard spikes anyone hit

[Down-Special - (Shed Tail)]
Twist and fire the tail as a projectile. This can be held to delay when it's shot. While holding, it can be Dash Canceled out of. If used in the air, the shot is angled downwards

[Up-Special - (Leaf Storm)]
Charge a tornado that propels Sceptile into the air upon release. Anyone caught in the tornado will be multi-hit, with the release launching them upwards. The ascent can be canceled into an Aerial or any other Special

Hey guys. Sorry for the wait. Am I too late to the Poke-jam?

Sceptile may be on the simpler side, but Leech makes things a sandbox. Combos will rarely go how you expect them to

Notice how most of the complicated stuff is stashed within the Normal moves. Have fun deciphering all that

Dash Canceling is the drug that keeps on drugging

You can't infinitely chain F-Tilt & Dash Attack. I would know. I tried. Would be funny though, but I have standards

Leech F-Strong is a built in meme-move. If they get hit by it, it's their fault

D-Strong was designed for the grounded footsies Rivals of Aether is known for

Go on. Fish for F-Special. Hit the style move. Don't worry. You totally won't get punished for it (lieing)

If you don't end up winning, spam D-Tilt. It usually works I swear

Don't expect any major balances or changes. There may be bug fixes here and there, but that's just about it

This character is a commission. If anything comes across, it'll have to go through me & the commissioner(s)

This character was made with balanced casual play in mind & not intended for workshop competetive play. Most feedback regarding balance towards the competetive scene will not be taken to regard. Add to tourney rosters at your own risk
