To start, a BIG Thank You for the previous owners Rosalina suporter and @Skyfox2000. Great job at starting this thread and also great job to the second owner for the improvements. Now, this is WhiteEaglePL welcoming all Members & Guests to-
Who are you? And don't you dare say my long lost sister.
*ahem* well without further ado...
The Witch is Here!!
The Umbran Witch Bayonetta, is a loved and quickly growing character from the critically acclaimed Bayonetta series created by PG* and owned by SEGA. Nintendo's basically saved the franchise and they've pretty much made Bayonetta one of thier own as seen by many Ninty fans. Always enjoying fighting angels and demons alike and getting the job done in style, she has a adorable fun side to her as well. Bayonetta is also very caring to her close companions, even going through hell to try and bring Jeanne back - sometimes she enjoys banter with them too! After being locked inside an Umbran coffin for 500 years, Bayonetta has forgotten much of her past, and who she really is, but quickly went on a quest to find out while meeting new friends along the way. She uses “Bullet Arts” as the main form of fighting, which combines melee attacks with guns as well as having a plethora of magical abilities. Throughout both of her games, Bayonetta has grown into a confident, strong and determined heroin, keeping her cool in the face of the enemy. Ultimately, she has a undeniably rich move-set potential to become a fun and unique character for everyone to enjoy - and be the perfect second SEGA rep.
I didn't ask you to tell me what I already know.

”Bayonetta is way too mature and sexy for the kid-friendly game!!”
You'll have to do better than that to earn a tip, my dear
Bayonetta's sexuality is only a very small slice of her in-depth character. You do not mention strength, confidence, sympathy ect and besides she flaunts it to her will. A lot of people don't see sexuality the 'core' of her character. Look beyond. The standard costumes from both Bayonetta games as well as most of the additional costumes are no more revealing than some of the costumes which are already in Smash Bros. Inherently she’s no more sexual than Zero Suit Samus when acting normally as usual. There's only about 4 over the top close up cutscenes in each of her two games anyways. She is much less revealing than a Shulk or ZZS and with Lady Palutena on the sexy poses list already, some potential taunts would also be perfectly acceptable. If anything, all you’d have to do is make the Wicked Weaves not strip her while showing the epic hair effects similar to the process in Bayonetta and cut the cursing - that is, if Wicked Weaves do come into play. Bayonetta not stripping (or, if possible, limited striping) will also just make it EASIER to get her in as less valuable resources are wasted creating unnecessary animations.
Another thing I'd like to add is that Nintendo was able to incorporate Solid Snake into Brawl, whose original fighting style involved pistols and rifles, which if you ask me, would be even harder to tone down than unrealistically massive, colourful fantasy guns.. Graphic finishers? Does Snake use his graphic finishers in smash? She does not need to, either, nor any lines using swear words. But they were able to make him work nonetheless, so I'm pretty confident that they can make Bayonetta work in Smash.
"Sakurai doesn't really like guns"
And your point is?
Guns? She does not require a move to fire them. They can be used as a visual/sound effect just like in her own games during punches and kicks. Plus, the flashy blue/red/purple lights as she does them is very similar to the flashy lights characters show in Smash already to emphasize the attacks. Frankly, more shells falling will be visible than actual bullets flying and all this would probabbly happen really fast. Lastly, the wishy ‘air’ sound and her voice let alone the games music and the rest of the character’s will make sure any gun sound effects won’t be overpowering.
"But...but, only 2 gamez!!!”
That's no way to talk to a lady
It’s 3 games including the cool browser game. She has also appeared in many other titles & mods.
Besides, does it really matter in the end? And it's not like there are characters in Smash who only have 1 game (Duck Hunt Duo) so 2 games is already better. Shovel Knight only have 1, yet that's not stopping people from wanting him. Two games is enough for Bayonetta to be called a series or a franchise. The game's director has plenty of ideas for the third game and a spinoff game is a possibility. Source
”She would need to be toned down so much that she would no longer be the Bayonetta fans love”A sequel to a Platinum title… I’d have to say Bayonetta 3. I have all kinds of ideas in my head for how to expand the world of Bayonetta in even more sequels, or maybe a spin-off!
You think you've got me figured out, don't you?
As mentioned in the first countered-argument, there honestly isn’t much to tone down at all, therefore the vast majority of Bayonetta shall remain the same. And after all, her personality is arguably much more significant than what she chooses to wear and do. Bayonetta's main personality would easily be able to shine through in her moves; from her brute strength to stylish and confident fighting while using many of her unique abilities.I’m sure Bayonetta fans like myself would be very happy to see one of their most beloved characters in such a great game like Smash Bros. It would certainly be a huge privilege to Bayonetta’s fans and her developers alike. Afterall, isn’t one of the main reasons why we want characters in Smash Bros because we simply like them that much?
Huh, health full.
Here is an article by @BluePikmin11 countering arguments as well. Please, take a look.

MOVE SET
First off, Moveset for the Wonderful Witch her self. Rather than giving her different attacks based off her various weapons, I feel all of her attacks, outside of Animal Transformations, should focus on what she can use with just her guns.
Yes she is a capable fighter with any weapon, but since her guns are her most iconic weapon, I feel they should be the only ones she’d use in her smash bros appearance. Note if the move she performs in a .gif has a name, it will be listed. If it doesn’t, a name describing the ability will be listed instead.
Note: as a Special Gimmick, when attacking with her standard attacks, holding down the attack button after pressing it will cause her to shoot magical bullets, just like in the Bayonetta series.
SPECIALS
- Neutral Special: Charge Bullet
- • Default: Charge energy to fire several rapid fire shots.
• Variation 1: Charges a massive orb of magic energy in her gun then fires it. Functions similarly to Samus’s Charge Shot.
• Variation 2: Instantly rapid fire small magic orbs from her gun. Functions similarly to Palutena’s Autoreticle.
- Side Special: Panther Within
- • Default: Charge energy to fire several rapid fire shots.
- • Default: Transforms into a panther and dashes forward at double standard speed. Press the button again to perform a slashing claw attack.
• Variation 1: Transforms into a panther and dashes forward at triple standard speed. Transformation lasts only a short period of time, no slash attack.
• Variation 2: Transforms into a panther and dashes a short distance before performing a powerful slash attack.
- Up Special: Crow Within
- • Default: Transforms into a panther and dashes forward at double standard speed. Press the button again to perform a slashing claw attack.
- • Default: Transforms into a crow and gains height as if from a 3rd jump. She will slowly descent while in crow form, and players are able to maneuver her as she descends. Functions similarly to Palutena’s Jump Glide.
• Variation 1: Transforms into a crow and feather darts will float around her forming a damaging shield as she descends. Functions similarly to Megaman’s Lief Shield.
• Variation 2: Transforms into a crow and darts in player generated direction. Functions similarly to Pikachu’s Quick Attack.
- Down Special: Witch Time
- • Default: Transforms into a crow and gains height as if from a 3rd jump. She will slowly descent while in crow form, and players are able to maneuver her as she descends. Functions similarly to Palutena’s Jump Glide.
- • Default: Strikes a pose, and if struck, Bayonetta will both counter the attack and the enemies movement will slow down if the attack hits, as if under the effect of the Timer item, for a short period of time.
• Variation 1: Strikes a pose, and if struck, Bayonetta will vanish then appear behind opponent and perform a meteor smash on the enemy from behind. Functions similarly to Lucario’s Double Team.
• Variation 2: Strikes a pose, and gains a temporary boost in movement and attack speed, at the cost of strength.
- • Default: Strikes a pose, and if struck, Bayonetta will both counter the attack and the enemies movement will slow down if the attack hits, as if under the effect of the Timer item, for a short period of time.

ASSIST TROPHY
Assist Trophies have become an essential in terms of items of the Smash Bros. series. So here I’m going to list off Bayonetta characters whom I think would make great Assist Trophies to represent the Bayonetta Universe.
Balder
The Biological Father of Bayonetta, and her rival in the second game. As an Assist Trophy, he will attack with his weapon, the Holy Glaive, in conjunction with powerful magics. He will function similarly to Ghirahim and Phosphora, teleporting and performing various different attacks.
- Attack 1: Holy Glaive combo
- Attack 2: Light Beam
- Attack 1: Holy Glaive combo
It's a chance for Bayonetta to get her own amiibo! Fans of Smash Bros, Bayonetta and Both will love to have one.
There's a custom ZSS made and a digital art of a Bayonetta Smash Trophy.

This last one is a real figure on top of a amiibo stand. It's far more expensive than retail-price amiibo's. Obviously, in Smash the pose won't be that suggestive , same can be said for the art above...
Huh? My lipstick
