Super Smash Bros. Ultimate x Yo-Kai Watch

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate x Yo-Kai Watch is a collaboration between Nintendo's crossover fighting game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Level-5's Yo-Kai Watch series. As part of this Fighters Pass, content from the Yo-Kai Watch games will be added to the game through paid downloadable content. This content will include the new fighter Jibanyan, new spirits, new music, one new stage, and a new Classic Mode route that can be taken by only Jibanyan.
The inclusion of this Fighters Pass was revealed on a Smash Direct airing on February 12th, 2021, with all of the new content being released a week after on February 19th. The announcement came along with the US release of Yo-Kai Watch 4 on the Nintendo Switch, localized from its Japanese release.
This page was made by TheWikiOddish to collaborate with the other fanon Fighters Pass characters, Jibanyan being the 24th character as of the making of the page.
==What is Yo-Kai Watch?==
Yo-Kai Watch is an open-world video game series created by the company Level-5, the brains behind games such as Little Battlers Experience, Professor Layton, and Inazuma Eleven. The goal was to create a new IP that would last long and would include loveable characters and an open-world environment that the player could explore. The game was officially revealed at the E3 2011 running for the PS3 console, but was repurposed for the Nintendo 3DS. The manga adaptation of Yo-Kai Watch released in Japan on December 15, 2012, about seven months before the games first release.
Upon releasing in Japan, it had sold over 53,000 copies for its first week of release. In 2014, the amount in sales rose to 1.29 million, becoming one of the top most popular games on the 3DS system. The series, however, did not reach its greatest popularity until the release of Yo-Kai Watch 2 in 2014. As of July 2016, the game has sold over 10 million physical copies in Japan alone. The franchise was eventually localized into the West upon its success with Yo-Kai Watch 2. Many types of media including the games, anime, and manga were all localized into English and other languages. In E3 2015, the franchise would eventually be announced to localize its games and anime. In 2016, in was announced that it would be localized to Europe in countries including Spain and France. Yo-Kai Watch had sold over 650,000 copies in Europe, almost twice the sales in the West.
==Challenger Pack==
As part of this Challenger Pack, the fighter Jibanyan joins the battle!
===Fighter #81: Jibanyan===
Jibanyan has been added as a new part of the game as well as content from the Yo-Kai Watch game series.
Image + Name
Jibanyan
===Jibanyan Stats ===
Jibanyan is a lightweight fighter with a weight of 76, making him one of the top five lightest fighters in the game. To a scale, he is lighter than Mr. Game & Watch & Squirtle (75) but heavier than Fox (77). Jibanyan also has great walking and running speed. His walking speed is 1.26, tying him with Mewtwo, Mii Brawler, and Young Link as the 14th fastest walker in the game. His running speed is 1.68 on initial dash and 2.18 on speed, having the exact run stats of Banjo Kazooie, tying him for the 11th fastest runner in the game. His jump height is mediocre, giving him a 32.5 measure in a full hop, tying him with Cloud, Joker, Isabelle, and Villager, who also have the exact same jump height.
Jibanyan's moves deal lots of damage, notably his Neutral Attack and Smash Attacks which rack up damage on opponents quickly. Paired with speed and his Adrenaline move that boosts his attack, he can give damage fairly quickly. He is also good with his side special; Inspirit. It is truly a random move that could surprise the opponent by giving them a random status, allowing them to become vulnerable if a good status such as being grounded or being stunned happens. Jibanyan also excels with his Blaze move which can be used repeatedly and can be used as a Wall-Of-Pain tactic if used offstage, making it quite annoying to the opponent. His down air is also reliable as, unlike other stall-and-fall down airs, it doesn't send Jibanyan down with the opponent if it hits them.
Though Jibanyan is agile and can rack damage quickly, a character is not without its weakness. His lightweight gives him weakness to big characters such as Ganondorf and King K. Rool who can easily send Jibanyan flying with any of their Smash Attacks. Jibanyan also has one of the shortest grab ranges in the game, reaching only 070px, making him just above Meta Knight in grab range (068px). His up special, Whisper Jump, is also predictable and slow during the end, making Jibanyan susceptible to getting meteor-smashed or attacked while offstage. Paired with Whisper Jump's shorter range on repeated use, Jibanyan may just simply fail to recover if attacked offstage repeatedly, suffering a similar problem to Olimar.
Overall, Jibanyan is a simple lightweight character that can pull off combos and rack up damage, but suffers during recovery or against shields. Jibanyan can be played similarly to other lightweight characters such as Meta Knight or Kirby that either rely on their physical attacks and aerials to pull off combos or rely on their special moves which annoy opponents.
===Jibanyan Moveset===
* = Neutral Attack: A fast rapid-jab move. Jibanyan first hits forward with his left paw, then his right paw, and then unleashes a flurry of punches.
* → = Forward Tilt: Jibanyan holds his tail forward and pokes forward. The sweetspot is on the tip of the tail, which does fire damage.
* ↑ = Up Tilt: A small punch upward. It can be stringed into itself about 4 times.
* ↓ = Down Tilt: Sweeps the ground with his tails. This move has a possibility to trip the hit opponent.
*→  = Dash Attack: Lunges forward with his elbow and roughly lands on the ground.
* →→ = Forward Smash: Charges a fire-powered punch. Jibanyan punches forward when the attack is released.
* ↑↑ = Up Smash: Holds a Chocobar upward. Jibanyan twirls it upward when the attack is released.
* ↓↓ = Down Smash: Holds both of his tails. Jibanyan slams both of them down, creating a blue fire blast when the attack is released.
* in the air = Neutral Air: Spins around with his arms and legs out.
*→ in the air = Forward Air: Creates a fiery flare with his hands and shoots it forward.
*← in the air = Back Air: A backwards kick.
*↑ in the air = Up Air: Does a kick-flip upward.
*↓ in the air = Down Air: A stall-and-fall move. Jibanyan dives downward, going straight down. It is a meteor-smash when it hits an opponent offstage and grounds opponents if they are hit onstage. Unlike most stall-and-fall moves, Jibanyan stops falling if the move hits an opponent.
* = Grab: Grabs forward with both of his hands.
* during grab = Pummel: Punches/pokes the opponent.
*→ during grab = Forward Throw: Summons Whisper and uses him as a bat by holding him by the tail. He then hits the opponent, sending them forward.
*← during grab = Back Throw: Throws the opponent over his head, sending them behind him.
*↑ during grab = Up Throw: A two-part throw. Jibanyan slams the opponent forward and then throws them upward.
*↓ during grab = Down Throw: Holds the opponent down and stomps on them repeatedly.
* = Blaze: Jibanyan shoots a small flare from his hands that goes a short distance. It explodes on contact with anything (walls, floors, other fighters). The closer the target is to Jibanyan during the move, the more damage it does.
* → = Inspirit: Jibanyan inspirits the opponent if they are directly in front of him, giving them a random status. These include poisoning, randomly taunting, tripping, or getting buried among many others.
* ↑ = Whisper Jump: Jibanyan rides on top of Whispier, another Yo-Kai Watch character. The move is fast at first but slows down when it ends. The move has a cooldown that shortens the distance travelled if the move is used repeatedly.
* ↓ = Adrenaline: A semi-counter move that activiates upon contact with an attacking move. If Jibanyan is hit during this move, he counters the opponents attack and gains a slight attack boost for 15 seconds.
*= Cats Of Fury: A new spin on his Soultimate Move "Paws Of Fury". Jibanyan summons other cat Yo-Kai such as Thornyan, Chimpanyan, Grapenyan, and others. They all release a flurry of punches on whoever is trapped in the Final Smash. The move finishes off with a truck hitting the target, blasting all of the cat Yo-Kai and the target away!
