I believe the character of Aran Ryan would work great as a Smash character. (Note that I am a young casual moron and i’m sorry if I make you cringe)

For starters he is the only boxer in Punch Out Wii that has a completely unique fighting style (not being close up), he has an arsenal (his rope gloves), and he could have some special moves based on the fact that he’s a cheater and that he has a lot of thing centered around the number 7.

Sakurai wants uniqueness in the characters he puts in and I think based on the things listed above he should be picked above (most) other characters. Of course there are others like Great Tiger, Don Flamenco, Glass Joe and Mr Sandman that would be great in smash but Aran is my fav so he’s the one i’m talking about.

Some other ideas for playstyle would be that his movements would be erratic and wonky to emphasize his insanity (like making him go forwards or backwards automatically in the air or something) and lunging forward during Smash attacks to show his out-fighter fighting style.

He could have moves like his Shamrock Squeeze and rope boxing glove thing. For Final Smash i’m unsure, maybe it could be the rope glove instead of using it as a special attack?
