Stu Pickles

**Stu Pickles** is the twenty-first playable character in *Smash Bros Lawl Beatdown*.

## Character description

Stu Pickles is the father of Tommy and Dil Pickles and the husband of Didi Pickles. Stu is a stay-at-home inventor, who builds and experiments with countless toys to try and make the next big breakout toy. Unfortunately, his inventions and experiments, for how ambitious they are, usually go wrong one way or another. Stu is childish and optimistic, never letting his failures get him down. He's a very caring father and husband, even if disaster follows him.

#### Role in the Beatdown Lore

Stu was invited to Beatdown through the Peregrine Mendicant delivering his invitation directly to him. Stu was given the direct tour of the mansion by Dr. Rosalene, who had to cut his introduction tour short due to a staff meeting regarding the Tord break-in. Rosalene has Stu wait in the waiting room adjacent to the meeting room with Gary Oak. While Stu tried to make small talk with Gary and show his skills with his Mr. Friend doll, Gary began putting Stu down while bolstering himself. When an argument breaks out with Gary insinuating that Stu was an "embarrassment", Stu was ready to take him up on that. After the meeting, Stu stormed off, and Rosalene tried to cool him down. She lead him to his room and tells him things would get better. A dejected Stu went to his room, wishing there was something he could do while in the mansion. Upon entering, he found Ozpin is waiting for him with his busted up Friend doll. Ozpin would then offer Stu a job making and testing Training Dummies for the Beatdown Colosseum.

In BeatdownBound, Frisk can find Stu working on dummies in the colosseum. If you were to have defeated Mr. Friend beforehand, Frisk will give Stu the ruined remains of the doll. When playing as Vriska Serket, she taunts Stu for the dummies he's made, and indirectly challenges him to make something stronger.

## Moveset

### Playstyle

Stu Pickles made his name on Rugrats being a wacky inventor; he's excited to invent the next big thing but it never works in the way he thinks it will. Stu plays more calculated and defensively, with slower mobility and higher weight in exchange for wacky moves that require the opponent to react. With a great variety of stage control options from mobile and immobile attacks, Stu needs to see how the opponent will get into his space to plan accordingly.
