Him

HIM is a villian from Powerpuff girls who dons a pink tulle tutu and neck frills, a red women's jacket and high heel boots, which result in Zettai Ryouki. His other notable feature is his claws, and devilesque face.

Punch Time Explosion: Claw Drop
Him's Punch Time Explosion changes depending on the stage you play.

On certain stages, Him grows huge and his claw comes down automatically doing 6 seperate attacks. Each deals 13% on contact (creating 3 power cubes).

These are the stages this Punch Time Explosion will activate:
 * Chowder 1
 * Chowder 3
 * Ben 10 1
 * Flapjack 1
 * Flapjack 2
 * KND 1
 * Powerpuff 2
 * Foster's 1
 * Foster's 2
 * Foster's 3
 * Final Boss 1

On other stages, Him grows huge and appears in the sky with his head popping out from clouds. You can then control this cloud and press the attack button to activate his claw attack. Both of his arms will drop down and deal 22% on contact (creating 4 power cubes).


 * Computer players were not coded to use this version properly resulting in the computer player standing still with invulnerability.


 * In addition computer players should start walking back and forth around the stage, instead of actively evading the Punch Time Explosion, so as to make an easy target for general players. However, there is a significant chance that the computer players will be stuck in this walking state for the rest of the game even if the Punch Time Explosion is finished.

These are the stages this Punch Time Explosion will activate:


 * Chowder 2


 * Ben 10 2


 * Flapjack 3


 * KND 2


 * KND 3


 * Powerpuff 1 (may result in losing a life until the Punch Time Explosion ends, therefore uncontrollable)


 * Dexter 1


 * Dexter 2


 * Dexter 3
 * Grim 1
 * Grim 2


 * Grim 3
 * Samurai Jack 1


 * Samurai Jack 2
 * Samurai Jack 3
 * Training 1

Synergy: General Skarr
Skarr pulls out two large warheads, and Him morphs into his butterfly disguise, grabbing onto Skarr and lifting him into the air, allowing him to rain the bombs down on opponents.

Trivia

 * Oddly, if Him uses his down aerial on the top bunk of Foster's 3, he will stay in place and not receive any knockback from attacks until he is removed from the bed.
