Veronica (Galactic Battle)

Veronica (ヴェロニカ, Veronika) is a newcomer in Super Smash Bros. Galactic Battle.
Veronica is one of the main antagonists of Fire Emblem Heroes, having a role in all three current books in the game. Despite being the main antagonist, Veronica has been shown to have a very lonely personality, one of which that has been made more apparent by the disappearance of her brother.
Veronica is voiced by Wendee Lee, reprising her role as the character.
==How to Unlock==

==Moveset==
Veronica wields two of her signature weapons being Hliðskjálf and Élivágar. Hliðskjálf is used for many basic attacks while Élivágar is used for mostly Special Moves.

Down Aerial 	N/A 	Veronica performs a downward roundhouse kick.
Grab 	N/A 	Veronica wraps the opponent in a whirling swirl of magic. A green halo, similar to Robin's grab will appear during the grab. The green halo also appears if Veronica grabs an opponent successfully.

Forward Throw 	N/A 	Veronica launches the opponent forwards with the Wind spell.

Down Throw 	N/A 	Veronica magically slams the opponent downwards with the Wind spell, which then launches them upwards.
Neutral Special	Wind 	Veronica casts the spell Wind from her tome. When cast, a green blade of wind will manifest in the air, and hone in on the nearest opponent. The move is animated similarly to its appearance in Fire Emblem Heroes. It is the weakest of Veronica's special attacks.
Side Special 	Rexcalibur	Veronica casts the spell Rexcalibur from her tome. When cast, a series of enormous ice crystals will appear on the stage, covering a good distance of it, and freezing high damaged opponents in the process. Although it is designed to go to a specific target, the move can trap and attack any opponents in the way of it. The ice remains on the stage for 10 seconds before shattering in a flurry of whirlwinds. It is animated similarly to its appearance in Fire Emblem Heroes.
Up Special 	Elwind 	Veronica casts wind magic twice from the Elwind tome, which propels her upwards. Elwind's projectiles can be angled, letting Veronica go twice in the same direction, providing a great horizontal recovery. If used while depleted, Veronica will gain a short upward boost upward, slightly improving her change of survival. Each wind blade generates a push effect on impact with the ground.
Down Special 	Counter 	Veronica fakes taking a hit from the opponent, then proceeds to slash the opponent quickly with Hliðskjálf.
Final Smash 	Pair Up 	Veronica summons Bruno via warp magic to pair up and attack. Bruno electrocutes the opponent upward into the air and then he and Veronica relentlessly attack the opponent, with Bruno repeatedly making use of thunder magic with Valaskjálf, while Veronica casts wind magic, including Rexcalibur. After they finish their barrage, they perform a final simultaneous strike that spikes the opponent to the ground, which deals enough recoil to launch them towards the upper blast line. Bruno then disappears afterward.

Veronica's Fighter Spirit can be obtained by completing Classic Mode. It is also available periodically for purchase in the shop for 500 coins.
