DeDeDe Custom Move Possibilities

[Boss N]

Now that we know everyone has 2 variants on their special moves, what could DedeBe?

Since we now know that his side B is no longer randomized and he automatically throws gordo's, I believe his custom will include throwing waddle dee, which has longer reach but less power, and a single waddle too that hangs around the stage zapping people with it's beam like it did in brawl, except you could only have one out at a time.

As for his side B I can see the missile launcher from Masked De being put to use, or the jet becomes a spinning hammer attack also from masked De, the longer you charge it the more he spins.

Just throwing ideas out but what are your thoughts on his possible custom moves?

That's actually a good idea, and it's probably what'll end up happening for his side special, assuming he doesn't become the next Palutena. >_>

His down special animation could have the masked Dedede move since the aforementioned would be his side specials. However, it would be grounded and wouldn't be tiltable like R.O.B.s since he'd technically hit into the ground and cause himself knock back. It would be like Luigi's spin (obviously slower) and it's range would compensate for it's immobility. Also it could be charged (he would progressively spin faster) until you release the button to throw the mallet like a boomerang (instead of just exploding since idk how they'd do an animation of him getting another one). I guess it would be thrown in the direction you were facing upon the release and it would go further depending on how long the move is held for. Also, it wouldn't go that far since he wouldn't have his weapon for a while.

His neutral could be like Kirby's freezing effect since I can't think of another good way to inhale something . What would be a cool idea is to have him be able to inhale items/projectiles and possibly store them like villager to shoot stars back out (like Kirby).

As for his up special, he should use his hammer as a rocket. The animation would consist of him placing the hammerhead beneath him, stepping on it (feet on both sides of the handle), an then pressing a button on the shaft or swiping his foot like there's an activator. Like Zelda's, it would have a tiny bit of starting lag for the animation. Its disrance would be similar to Rosalina's recovery. When he uses the move, he would spiral upwards in the direction pressed (as the turbo boost comes out from one side causing him to spin) to cover both sides and help him land safely. However, it wouldn't have the invincibility like Super Dedede Jump; it wouldn't have the lag or risk either.
The next variation could be something that you charge (like Diddy Kong). For instance, he would inhale air then puff it out to fly upwards.

A variation of his Up-B could be a grab move with similarities to kirby and metaknight's sky drop grabs. (This would make the move kick all kinds of ass if it had the same ascending speed, but grabbed people who it went past)

As for neutral B, Dedede Blows.

Alternate Up Special: Drum Dash Jump

Right before King Dedede would jump, a red drum platform briefly appears under him. Depending on when you press B before 2 seconds, King Dedede will jump with increased height and range. The initial jump creates a shockwave that blows other fighters away from it. The drum will last for 1 second after King Dedede jumps, allowing for other characters to get a short bounce off of it.

Here's a few ideas..

Side Special

Variation 1 - Waddle Dee Toss: Dedede throws a Waddle Dee, who travels further by walking after thrown.

Variation 2 - Waddle Doo Toss: Similar to the above variation, but travels a shorter distance. Upon landing, the Waddle Doo shoots a laser out, then disappears.

You should be able to press a button at the peak of the jump to do a clap that sends another, smaller shockwave
