Samurai Goroh (SSS)

:This article is strictly about how Samurai Goroh appears in Super Smash Stadium. For information about him in general, see his article on the F-Zero wiki.
Whereas in the actual Smash Bros. games, Captain Falcon has been the F-Zero franchise's only playable representative thus far, Samurai Goroh, an Assist Trophy in the games, is a playable character on Super Smash Stadium, added to give Falcon some competition. He debuted alongside Big Blue.
==In his own universe==
Goroh is the closest thing the racing-oriented F-Zero franchise has to a villain. Captain Falcon's greatest rival, he is a notorious space bandit who leads a dangerous gang of thieves in Red Canyon. Much like Wario, he is very fat, yet athletic. He also acts like a stereotypical pro wrestling heel, and hams up his villain status constantly. This rivalry with Falcon ties into why he races in the F-Zero Grand Prix to begin with.
==Attributes==
"Slow but powerful" is Goroh's mantra. Many of his attacks involve his katana, thus giving him much more range than a typical heavyweight might get. Still, his attacks tend to come out slow, and telegraph themselves way in advance.
===Changes===
*Season 39: Was made slightly faster, but slightly weaker.
===Moveset===
Entrance: Drives in on his F-Zero car, #5, the Fire Stingray.
Move Name	Description
Neutral Special:
Goroh Slash	Similar to Falcon Punch, but he uses his sword. He winds up the move for a second, then lunges forward. Inflicts more damage than Falcon Punch on anyone who gets hit, but less knockback.
Kills at 120%.
Side Special:
Road Rash	Goroh grabs an opponent, slams them to the ground, drags them for half the length of Final Destination, and then slashes them. This is considered a grab, so it can hit through shields and knock Kirby out of his Stone.
Kills at 85%.
Up Special:
Sword Jump	Goroh jumps with his sword out, flips, then jumps back down. Inflicts moderate damage and knockback to anyone hit.
Kills at 90-110%.
Down Special:
Low Blow	Goroh stabs his opponent in the stomach. Much like Luigi's Jump Punch and Jigglypuff's Rest, the sweetspot for this move is very hard to land. If sourspotted, it barely does anything, but if sweetspotted, it kills the opponent instantly!
Final Smash:
Fire Stingray	Somewhat similar to Captain Falcon's Final Smash. He calls up the Fire Stingray, and anyone hit by the car gets transported to Red Canyon, where his gang surrounds the opponents and beats them down. Not a guaranteed kill.
Kills at 55%.
Ashley Variant: While Goroh just laughs through the whole thing, Ashley has a voice line: "This is something I've wanted to do for years, after some damn "feminist" with big-ass hoop earrings fucked me over for "cultural appropriation" over a hula dance! Beat 'em down, boys!!!"
===Taunts===
*Up Taunt: Gives a hearty laugh.
*Side Taunt: Swipes his sword a few times.
*Down Taunt: "Mugs" for the camera.
===Victory===
*Pose: Does a few flips, then poses with his sword out.
*Theme: Team F-Zero's victory theme.
*"No Contest"/Loss Theme: Team F-Zero's loss theme.
==Costumes==
*Default
*Red
*Green
*Blue
*Yellow
*Pink/Purple
*Tuxedo: Is dressed in precisely that, and a top hat.
*Kimono: Ditto.
