Dry Bones digs in! [2/2]

This is my second entry for Juulie's #FighterDLC contest! :warning:

Category: Unlikely :-1: 🏻

Hi fellows, and welcome to my second entry for the contest! Today I'm going to create a complete moveset for Dry Bones, which I think is unlikely because this character still has chance, since we already received Piranha Plant, a Mario enemy! With no more to say, let's begin!

Jab - Crunch Combo

Dry Bones' Jab is similar to Mario's! He firstly punches the enemy, then kicks and finally he crunches the enemy, dealing a decent amount of knock back and damage!

Forward & Back Tilt - Bone Hit

Dry Bones uses a bone to hit forward and backwards respectively! The hit comes out quickly, and causes no endlag, but it doesn't deal much. It can be compared to Bowser Jr's same moves!

Up Tilt - Bone Swing

Dry Bones uses his bone again to swing it from forward to upwards, in a 90 degrees hit! Again, I can compare this to Bowser Jr's Up Tilt since he uses the fork for the same movement. Every hit opponent by this move will be pushed upwards.

Down Tilt - Ghost Kick

Dry Bones lies down a bit and kicks forward with his foot, which detaches from the body to make it cover a further distance! After kicking, the foot will instantly re-appear attached to Dry Bones' body!

Dash Attack - Slide

While running, Dry Bones slides forward and hits every close opponent, dealing a great amount of knockback! It is similar to Mario's attack, but it covers less distance since Dry Bones is shorter.

Forward Smash - Bone Bat

To perform his Forward Smash, Dry Bones uses a big bone bat to hit close opponents! It is similar to Ness' bat, since it can also work as a projectile reflector, but it does more damage! To balance this, Dry Bones' bat can break if used too many times, and it will become available again after some seconds.

Up Smash - Ghost Fists

When performed, Dry Bones starts looking up and then throws his two fists upwards to punch the opponents! They will grow a bit, like Wario's hands when he performs some moves, and they will then return to the normal form to Dry Bones. This move causes some endlag but it's very powerful and has an high chance to kill the opponent at high percents!

Down Smash - Skeletal Earthquake

To perform this move, Dry Bones uses a different type of bone, which is sharper than the others, and he sticks it with great stength in the ground! This will cause ground around him to shake a bit and push away any close opponents! After using the move, Dry Bones takes the bone and throws it away.

Neutral Special - Bone Throw

It's time for special moves! For his Neutral Special, Dry Bones throws a bone horizontally like a boomerang, which will then come back to him! It doesn't deal much damage, but it can be really useful to start combos! Also, Dry Bones can throw two bones at time, but the second one won't deal any knock back.

Side Special - Boo Run

Dry Bones calls a friend to attack his enemies: Boo! Dry Bones will ride him and dash from one side of the stage to another, while Boo licks forward! When performed in air, Boo stops after 2 seconds, so it's very dangerous to do it while in air. Despite this fact, this move will deal a great amount of damage and knock back, resulting as one of the most effective Dry Bones' kill moves!

Up Special - Skeleton Goonie Flight

To recovery, Dry Bones is lifted up by a Skeleton Goonie, from Yoshi's Island series! It can't hurt with its flight, but it flies really high, making it one of the best recoveries in the game!

Down Special - Body Break

This is the most technical move to use, and consists in Dry Bones breaking his body and falling down. By using this, Dry Bones gains some seconds of invincibility, and he will return in the normal form after 2 seconds, causing some endlag. Seems like a useless move, but it can be used to dodge a powerful attack to confuse the opponent!

Neutral Aerial - Head Swing

While in air, Dry Bones' head detaches and starts spinning around his body, dealing damage to close opponents and pushing them away! After using this move, the head will come back to place!

Forward Aerial - Head Bonk

Just like Yoshi's Forward Air, Dry Bones' head becomes bigger and hits forward, but this time it is not working as a spike.

Back Aerial - Double Feet Kick

Many characters own this similar move, and I decided to give it to Dry Bones' too! He hits backwards with his two feet which eventually detach from the body to cover further distance!

Up Aerial - Head Detach

Dry Bones' head detaches from his body and hits upwards, causing sometimes some momentum that makes hit opponents float in the air before landing.

Down Aerial - Feet Detach

Here's Dry Bones spike move! Dry Bones' feet both detach from body and quickly hit under Dry Bones, hitting with a great strength.

Forward Throw - Powerful Kick

After grabbing the opponent, Dry Bones throws them in front of him and stabs them with a powerful kick, kicking them away!

Back Throw - Spiny Shell

After grabbing the opponent, he throws them behind him and stings them with his shell, which becomes spiny. This is because it is replaced with a spiny Bony Beetle, which then disappears after the hit.

Up Throw - Bone Goomba

Dry Bones grabs the opponent and throws them upwards. After that, a Bone Goomba appears and hits the opponent with his head, causing a small amount of knock back.

Down Throw - Piranha Crunch

Dry Bones throws his opponent on the ground, then a Bone Piranha Plant appears and crunches them, pushing them straight away in a random direction.

FINAL SMASH - Dry Bowser and Mattermouth Fury

Here's Dry Bones' Final Smash! After using it, Dry Bones calls Kamek, who casts some spells, summons giant Dry Bowser and three Mattermouths and then grabs Dry Bones to make him escape. While the three Mattermouth will crunch the stage, creating some holes where opponents can fall, Dry Bowser will spit blue fire and throw to punches to the ground, from the background! After that, Dry Bowser and the holes will disappear, and Kamek will make Dry Bones come back to the stage!

That's everything for today! Hope you liked this moveset, cya!
