Gary Oak

Gary Oak is the seventeenth playable character in Smash Bros Lawl Beatdown.
== Character Description ==
Gary Oak is a recurring character who appeared in the Pokémon anime. He is a Pokémon trainer from Pallet Town and grandson of Professor Oak. Gary is the main rival of Ash Ketchum through Kanto and Johto, and the anime counterpart of Blue. Starting his journey with the Water-type Squirtle given to him by his grandfather, Gary sets out to the number one Pokémon Trainer accompanied by his fan club and convertible (which is driven by his chauffeur). After Johto, he decided to dedicate his life to researching Pokémon.
== Moveset ==
===Playstyle===
One thing about Gary Oak is his superiority over other people. Gary is always one step ahead of Ash throughout Kanto, and that translates to how he plays here. Gary's moves grant him priority over his foes, combined with setups that allow him to get an upper hand on opponents that cannot match his girth. Extending his hitboxes with his Pokemon (and even detaching himself from them with a unique buff), rushing in with burst options and even having his fans cheer him on, Gary uses anything and everything to show that he's the top trainer.
