Good or Bad: Neutral



History On Li:



Before the explosion, Golurk lived south of Geosenge Town in the wooded area. He would watch over the smaller Pokemon in case any threats were to come along. Many Pokemon looked up to it as it were their guardian and lived happily among the stone pillars. Unfortunaly, the subspace distaster happened the large automaton didn't have very much time to react. After the whole mess was done, Golurk spent his time at Pokemon Cove defending the weaker pokemon from any other threats that might wander up to the cave.



Storied History(Optional):http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Golurk_(Pok%C3%A9mon)



Primary Attacks:

Mega Punch - Golurks revs back and thens slugs his fist forward. This attack deals more damage than the other two primary attacks but has no additional effects.



Ice Punch - Imbuing its hand with an icy energy, Golurk punches his target with a fist of ice. This move has a ten percent chance to freeze the target solid (Much like the Freezie Item effect). When an opponent is frozen on a post, they have a twenty percent chance to thaw out. If they fail to thaw out, they must wait till their next post. The ice can be melted with fire based attacks to thaw it quicker. NOTE: A ten sided die will be rolled in order to apply the freeze chance.



Shadow Punch - Imbuing its hand with a otherworldly energy, Golurk punches his target with a fist from the shadows. This move never misses, no matter what, but can be blocked.



Special Attacks:



Earthquake (Standard Special) - One of the most powerful moves known among Pokemon, Golurk uses it mysterious power to cause the ground around him to shake in a violent manner. This throws opponents (and allies) around violently and can even crack the ground with continuous use. Golurk can use this as long as he want without pause unless he gets hit with a move that is tough enough to make him flinch.



Heavy Slam (Down Special) - Letting it's entire body fall forward, it slams into the target with its weight and the use of gravity. This attack will deal more damage the smaller the target is compared to Golurk (EX. Kirby would take a lot while a character like Bowser would not take as much). Golurk also weighs 727.5 lbs so take that into consideration.



Fly (Up Special) - Withdrawing it's arms and legs it, it can take off like a rocket by expelling flames from its empty spaces (waist and arms). The pokemon is reported to fly at mach speeds throughout the sky. The flames deal fire damage while Golurk can ram into things while flying dealing high knockback damage.



Ultimate Attack:



Giga Impact - Golurk gathers every bit of energy it has and charges into his opponent at max power.  When the move is in full effect, a white dome like shape envelopes him (EX. GIGA IMPACT IMAGE)  This attack is so powerful that the user has to rest on the next post (Golurk can still move it will just be very sluggish).



Allies/Friends: Pokemon and their Trainers,



Enemies/Rivals: No One inspecific



Any Other Information:



[[PERSONALITY]]

Seeing as most pokemon don't offer much of a character, I wanted to set one up for more character development:

Golurk is a rather difficult one to figure out. It's often lost in thought but others can't tell due to its lack of facial features. When the pokemon not in deep mental searching, it likes to walk around and help other pokemon that are in need though this branch of kindness only goes to his kind and their trainers. It may take time for the automaton to warm up to others but it will still cooperate in order to get something done. If one gets to know Golurk well, they would see that the automaton is very intelligent and able to read and work things very well. Such knowledge has unknown origin thanks to the lacking vocabulary of pokemon.

I have a small issue with Golurk's size. I don't know the other character sizes and the character size limit. Golurk is 9'2" and weighs 727.5 lbs. Would this be too big or should I just down size him to being Bowser's size?



[[IMMUNITIES]]



Due to Golurk's typing he has certain immunities; those being Electric, Normal, and Fighting. Since this is the Smash series, should this be discluded or would it be okay to include?

[Mr. Game & Watch]

This is a very interesting and unique app, although there are a couple things that need to be tweaked in order for it to be passable.

The History on Li is a bit short for site standards, but you added a section for personality so I'll over look that.

As for the movesets, some are a bit overpowered and require to be nerfed. Shadow Punch never missing is sort of a cheap tactic, I understand that the move works that way in Pokemon, but a lot of moves in Pokemon don't work here very well. I would suggest having a more diverse movepool than a series of punches since type advantage is not a concern here. I'm not saying you can't have his entire moveset be punches, but in the long run you'd probably prefer to have something outside of punching since that could become somewhat repetitive. Just a suggestion.

I have a slight issue with Earthquake being the way that it is. While there are some character who have the ability to fly, others can't and with that in mind it would probably be difficult for a lot of people to get close enough to Golurk to make him flinch. I get that its supposed to be like Donkey Kong's ground slamming move, but its still a bit too powerful. Also, there is no listed range for this attack, so I would prefer it if there was.

To answer a couple of your questions, yes Golurk should be scaled down to the size of Bowser since he would be too big at 9'2". The weight isn't a big factor so it isn't necessary to downscale that, but if you would like to I don't have an issue with that either. As for immunities, Electric would be fine to keep since that would be an interesting dynamic, but Normal and Fighting would basically mean that no one can touch him and that wouldn't be fair, besides he is one of those few Ghost types that is a solid object so realistically I don't see how those immunities would apply.
