Rayman (SSBUS)

Hold up! This is the version of Rayman that appears in Super Smash Bros. Universal Struggle. Looking for the real deal? Head here to find the main article on this limbless legend.
Rayman is a newcomer hailing from the Rayman series of games. He made his unofficial Super Smash Bros. debut as a trophy in the Wii U version of Super Smash Bros. 4, but his playable debut is in Super Smash Bros. Universal Struggle. Rayman's moveset derives from abilities he used in several of his games, including the ability to throw his fist out and then bring it back. 
==Trophy Description==
Rayman's trophy description has not been revealed as of yet, but it can be assumed that his trophy can be unlocked by beating Classic Mode as Rayman.

===Special Moves===
<tabber>
Default=
*Neutral Special: Wind-Up Punch - Rayman wind-ups one of his fists and then throws it forward (which does 3% damage). He can charge this and also aim it. A charged fist does 7% damage.
*Side Special: Plunger Gun - Rayman whips out his Plunger Gun from Rayman Raving Rabbids and shoots a plunger from it. He can shoot up to five shots before he must recharge for 30 seconds. The plungers do 5% damage each, but they can do 6% if the player is lucky enough.
*Up Special: Haircopter - Rayman does his signature helicopter hair move. He can throw uncharged fists while airborne which do 3% each. Rayman can also damage players from above using his hair while on the ground.
*Down Special: Metallic Slam - Rayman's fists gain a red metallic covering and then Rayman slams them into the ground. This can bury opponents near them and deal 7% damage if they are caught in the attack.
*Final Smash: Rabbid Rampage - An earthquake occurs and then a horde of Rabbids appear. They cover the entire screen and deal 15% damage to everyone on-screen besides Rayman. The amount of damage is multiplied by the overall amount of players on the stage.
