The ultimate life form: SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG

[Mr.N]

 

What is the sense of my life? Why do I see pictures in my head I can't remember? Who am I? For a long time I was searching for the answer of my life. Now I know who I am.
I am the ultimate life form. I am SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG



Please read the "Specials" else it might be verry hard to understand them.


Normal Attacks

Neutral A

Three Hit Combo

Left


Right


Kick


Dash Attack
Shadow slides forward and spins





Tilts

Side Tilt

Shadow kicks with both feed. The attack can hit twice.


Up Tilt

Two kicks upwards


Down Tilt

Shadow crouches and gets invulnerable for a little period of time. Then he'll perform a low kick.




Smashes

Side Smash

Side Smash Side

Strong punch.



Side Smash Up

Verry strong attack with both hands but low range



Side Smash Down

Shadow rolles forward. Verry good distance but not as strong as Side Smash



Up Smash

Attack to both Sides with his legs. Hits two times.



Down Smash

Strong low kick to both sides




Air Attacks

Neutral Air

Shadow spins like a ball



Forward Air

A kick forward. It can hit two times and is a weak Meteor Smash.



Back Air

Shadow kicks backwards. Good knockback. It moves him back a little so it's good to surprise the enemy.



Up Air

Shadow punches upwards. He can hit two times.



Down Air

Shadow Spins like a ball. After a little period of time he'll smash down verry fast.




Specials

Neutral Special: Homing Attack

Shadow follows and attacks an enemy. On Ground he jumps higher than Sonic before he does the attack. In Air he stays spins but doesn't move upwards (different to Sonic).



Up Special: Chaos Jump

Shadow uses his chaos power to make a big, fast jump.
Now you have two possibilities:
1: Holding down B: Shadow will use his chaos power as long as you hold B. He will stay in air and fall verry slowly. He also can glide horizontal. This is very slow, too. It's good to recover and you can fly a verry long distance but Shadow is nearly helpless while gliding and much to slow to escape attacks. Shadow will fall disabled when you leave B.
2: Pushing B and leaving it before Shadow starts gliding. Shadow will jump and can move/attack freely. If you press Up B after jumping Shadow will go into gliding state.

Gliding will not end when Shadow touches the ground. He will glide on ground. It's no bug. It's some interesting/funny move.

Chaos...


...Jump


Gliding



Side Special: Weapon

Shadow has three weapons with him.
1: Machine Gun
2: Ray Gun
3: Grenade Launcher

You can cycle through them with the D-Pad. Shadow starts with the Machine Gun.
D-Pad left is Grenade Launcher, right is Ray Gun.
Machine Gun <> Ray Gun<>Grenade Launcher<>Machine Gun...

1: Shadow uses his Machine Gun. It can contain 11 bullets. If you shot 11 times you have to reload (Side B with no bullets). If you do not use all bullets the you can use the ther one later (You shot 3 times then you have 8 shots left). You can't reload when you have some bullets left. Shadow shoots as long as you hold down B. He will not fall down while shooting in air


2: Shadow uses his Ray Gun. It works like the Machine gun but has only 5 bullets.


3: Shadow uses his Grenade Launcher. He thrown a bomb verry fast. You have to reload every time you use it. If you use it in air Shadow will drop 3 bombs in a different angle.




Down Special: The Ultimate Power

Normally Down B is useless and has no effect.


During the fight Shadow can collect Evil and Hero power.
He gets Hero Power every time he gets hit.
He gets Evil Power every time he hits an enemy.
After collecting enough Hero/Evil power Shadow reaches his full power.
While having full power Evil/Hero you can't fill up any power.

Hero

BEHOLD THE ULTIMATE POWER.


Shadow goes into Hero State. He is invulnerable and needs not to reload his weapons.
This effect ends after some time when he used all his Hero power.
During Hero Mode Shadow can use his incredible Chaos Control.
He becomes so fast that every enemy seems to move slower. Chaos control lasts for some time.
Shadow needs Hero Power to use Chaos Control. That means his Hero State will end sooner.

CHAOS CONTROL



Evil

DEATH TO ALL WHO OPPOSE ME


Shadow goes into Evil State. He is invulnerable and needs not to reload his weapons.
This effect ends after some time when he used all his Evil power.
During Evil Mode Shadow can use his powerful Chaos Blast.
Shadow unleashes his full power and does high damage.
Shadow needs Evil Power to use Chaos Blast. That means his Evil State will end sooner.

CHAOS...


...BLAST



Final Smash

I haven't changed it. Super Shadow exists, too.


Further Changes

Dodges
Shadow has faster Dodger than Sonic. All dodges are teleporting.


Jump
Shadow's first jump animation has changed so that it look more like a "Shadow Jump".

Taunts
All Taunts are changed.

Grab/Throw
Down Throw is changed.

Wall Jump

Of course Shadow can use the Wall Jump.



Known Bugs
Game freezes when you use Final Smash during Hero/Evil Power.


Background knowledge

You always want attacks like Chaos Spear. I've never heared about these attacks before. I completely referred to the game "Shadow The Hedgehog". The one who have the game will know a lot of moves. The only invention I made is the Chaos Jump. There was no other good Recovery Attack.
There are already some Shadow hacks existing but I wasn't satisfied completely with them because a lot of moves from "Shadow The Hedgehog" are missing. In my opinion this is the only true Shadow.
I'm very proud of this character because Up, Side and Down Special are very much work and very complex structured. Every attack has it's own counter (bullets, power...)
"Shadow The Hedgehog" is one of Nintendo's best games ever.


Videos
Here are some videos for those who don't know the game "Shadow the Hedgehog".
The one who know it should watch them, too. They are very good and give a good impression on Shadow:

Credits

Credits completely go to my friend Ayzer. :happy:
He was my partner in this project. First he asked me to help him with his Shadow (UP B). Then I started to like this project and made a new Shadow out of it.
Thanks to you for giving me motivation (and making the Chaos Control graphic ;))

[flammable]

another great psa mr. n
*claps*

now fanboys will hav a riot >.>

[songeflemy]

This will defiantly replace the other Shadow PSA on mah SD card. Though some moves look related to the other one.

And when Shadow goes Evil Mode, It's "DEATH TO ALL WHO OPPOSE ME!!!!"

[flammable]

how do u make the alter-changing weapons? those are always a nice touch to ur masterpieces

[SiLeNtDo0m]

Wow awesome!!  Personally, I think what I'll do is use most of this moveset with mastaklo's model and parts of the moveset.  That way there could be a perfect Shadow :D

[hughie]

This is amazing, but i would like to see some chaos spear instead of weapons.
(Was in Shadow the Hedgehog, Last Boss. *Quick blue arrows that become big yellow ones when charged*
I also think the down b should be a light attack and have the hero and dark attacks *Maybe 5 dmg, low range, low knockback*

[corban123]

For some reason whenever i choose sonic as a character, its just sonic with shadows moveset and it crashes whenever i use final smash. Am i missing something here?

[songeflemy]

Read the OP carefully. It says if you use final smash while in Hero/Evil mode the game will Freeze.

[corban123]

I noticed that, though i cant tell if im in hero/evil mode. Does he mean whenever you activate it, or whenever you begin to gain hero/evil points, because if it means in the mode, then thats not the problem, since i crashed without being in it ._<

As I sayed I took Ayzer's Shadow as basic character.
Thanks. I corrected it.DEATH TO ALL WHO OPPOSE ME

You are so boring. Why replacing the weapons with Chaos Spear? The weapons are the reason why I made Shadow. I missed them in every other hack. I'll add it ;). No replacing. Adding. I'll have to find a way.

For some reason whenever i choose sonic as a character, its just sonic with shadows moveset and it crashes whenever i use final smash. Am i missing something here?

Does anyone else have this problem? I tested the Final Smash and it should work when you have no special power.
I don't know why the moveset doesn't work. Perhaps it's too big so that it won't work but on my wii it works.
Let's see whether anyone else has this problem.

Everyone please test Shadow. I'll ask some questions tomorrow.

You have to be in the mode. I'll look at it tomorrow. Surely the problem is that I used a variable in one of the counters which is used in the final Smash and that crashes game. I'll do my best to fix it.

[ADJSonic]

Someone port it to DK.
If none else does I'll do it myself.

[....]

i like it but one thing could you add mastalko no moving spines to the fitmotion plz

[corban123]

Also, it seems you have to be in the second costume for sonic to be able to look like shadow >_<

[....]

it is very hard to do such a thing as you can see all sonic and shadows over dk have glitches

[ADJSonic]

Well whats the point in having shadow if u can't have sonic??!!

I'll do it but use Shadow over DK as a base thencopy all animations except the neutral b.
I'll have to keep it the same.
