Isabelle (Smash 5)

Isabelle makes her first appearance as a playable character to the Super Smash Bros. franchise in Super 5mash Bros. 5. Isabelle comes from the Animal Crossing series and was an Assist Trophy in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS. Isabelle uses a variety of items and objects as well as mehcanics found within her home franchise, Animal Crossing including fruits and city work projects.
==Attributes==
Isabelle is a bag of tricks type character with utilizing seemingly weak attacks to gain the edge on her opponents. In addition, many of her attacks have secondary features which can also influence the outcome of a match. Isabelle is largely a mixed bag that utilizes various attacks that belies her rather peaceful nature. Many of her attacks have surprising hit boxes and hurt boxes. In addition, they tend to linger - meaning that even after the attack is over; it can still do damage.
In terms of stats, Isabelle is a rather slower character but can jump fairly high. She has surprising air speed and average falling speed. She has a good doge and rolling animations. Her attacks have limited range save for a few of her projectiles. However, they lack in the power department and have lower priority thus causing opponents to be able to take advantage and cancel out her attacks. With her Lloid Donation and Works Project moves, she can also zone the stage. Her Town Ordinance moves can also boost up her stats that she lacks. Overall, she has a high learning curve and can be hazardous in the hands of a skilled player against someone unfamiliar with Isabelle.

===Move Set===
 	Name 	Damage 	Description
Neutral Attack 	Thank You Very Much! 	3% 	Isabelle bows low while closing her eyes as if she is bowing. If she hits her head on an opponent, it causes her to wince and slightly recoil back instead of returning back to her normal position. This allows for spamming the attack. It has good range and a wide hit box. If she does it more than six times, it suffers from ending lag at the end of the attack as she rubs her forehead.
Forward Tilt 	Congratulations! 	6%, 1.3% 	Isabelle pulls a party popper that shoots out confetti into the air. The initial attack does damage as well as the confetti as it lingers in the air while falling down. It lasts several seconds though it can be canceled.
Up Tilt 	WHAT?! 	5% 	Isabelle looks up with a surprise of shock. Shock-like lines appears from Isabelle with the same sound from Animal Crossing. It will knock opponents up into the air. It suffers from slight start up and ending lag.
Down Tilt 	What's This? 	3% (bow), 2% (rise), 5% (back of head) 	Isabelle will bend down bit like her standard attack but much lower and picks something up. The bending portions does damage as well as the return trip out. However, it does more damage if the back of the head hits on the return trip up. It can spike opponents at high levels. It is a rather laggy down tilt move.
Dash Attack 	HELP ME!!! 	8% (fall), 1% (papers) 4% (roll) 	Isabelle holds a stack of papers and trips, scattering the papers into the air. The appears will flutter down and can deal additional damage. The trip and papers usually connect well; especially at lower percentages. Isabelle will then go into a roll animation and will knock opponents upwards. She rolls about three spaces before returning to normal albeit has a bit of ending lag attached to the attack.
Forward Smash 	I Can't Stay Awake... 	0% 	Isabelle stretches and yawns; causing yawn marks to shoot from her mouth. These do not deal damage but will cause the opponent to momentarily fall asleep. The longer it is charged, the more the opponent will be asleep.
Up Smash 	Let's Play! 	18% (uncharged clean), 24% (charged clean), 14% (uncharged late), 20% (charged late),	Isabelle's prime killing move. She tosses a Soccer Ball into the air. It does damage at the highest point of the ball throw. It can connect with her Side Smash.
Down Smash 	It's SO Heavy! 	15% (uncharged), 20% (charged) 	Isabelle founds a heavy box of objects and begins to tremble as she holds them. She finally drops them, spiking the opponents up. It is a great attack for those holding onto the ledge. Her face looks surprised.
Neutral Aerial 	How's This? 	7% 	Isabelle spins in a circle while posing, It can hit three times but only one hitbox will launch the opponent forward. It is a quick and effective attack.
Forward Aerial 	This Is A Good Place! 	9% (point), 4% (sign) 	Isabelle pulls out one of the signs seen around the village and drops it. The pointy end of the sign does more damage and knockback compared to the sign itself. She looks surprised to find the sign fell.
Back Aerial 	I'M FALLING! 	2%, 2%, 4% 	Isabelle falls backwards and starts to flail as she spins around. Each attack deals hit stun with the final hit dealing knock back. When she lands, she has an expression of relief.
Up Aerial 	I'm a Basketball Star! 	7% 	Isabelle pulls out a Basketball and throws it up into the air. It does moderate damage but very little knockback. However, the attack has many chances to hit has it arches up and comes back down. Once it lands, it vanishes. Due to Isabelle's rather unatheltic nature, the ball doesn't actually go very far much to her surprise.
Down Aerial 	I Saw This Once Before...	1.4% (loop) 	Isabelle tries to perform Yoshi's down aerial by kicking her feet back and forth. While does looping damage, it is inferior compared to Yoshi's. However, it is faster and can be short hopped without any landing lag.
Grab 	--- 	--- 	Isabelle grabs the opponent with a face of joy.
Pummel 	Squishy! 	2% 	A very quick pummel. Isabelle pokes the opponent with her finger.
Forward Throw 	Now You're the mayor! 	3% (throw), 5% (crash 	Isabelle puts the opponent into an office chair and kicks it away. The chair dashes forward and then crashes. It also does the same amount of damage to the opponent who is hit by the attack. She waves good bye to the chair and opponent.
Back Throw 	There You Go! 	7% 	Isabelle swings the opponent around but trips as she does with both crashing down. Isabelle lands on top of the opponent and rubs her head.
Up Throw 	Hip-Hip Hooray! 	10% 	Isabelle grabs the opponent and throws the opponent upwards as if she is cheering them on.
Down Throw 	Please Carry This! 	9% 	Isabelle gives the opponent a heavy box but crashes onto them; burying them in the ground.
Floor Attack (front/back)	Excuse Me! 	4% 	Isabelle gets up and bows a deep bow while kneeling on the ground. Her head is the hitbox.
Floor Attack (trip) 	I'm OK! 	5% 	Isabelle quickly gets up but the back of her hand slams into the opponent; dealing damage.
Edge Attack 	I Could Use Some Help! 	4% 	Isabelle pulls herself up, trips, and rolls forward; launching anyone in front of her.
