Right behind you with a knife.
La di da~

Neutral B: Knuckle Joe, in his parody fashion, charges up a energy ball, similar to the hadoken or kamehameha. The charge up takes a long time, and charge may not be the appropriate word. It’s more like a projectile version of the Falcon Punch, being strong with a lot of knock back, but very slow to start up. The move travels a good distance, but is moderately fast once thrown.

Forward B: KJ mimics Guile from Street Fighter, and makes a spin kick, raising himself into the air somewhat. The attack is fast, but has little knock back, but it is good against any opponents from above.

Up B: If in air, KJ starts to kick off the air rapidly, struggling but gaining no lift at first, but then a large push after a half second. If on ground, KJ will do much the same, but will also create a shockwave across the ground once he makes lift off.

Down B: KJ will stand on his head, and like a parody of Chun Li, will rotate around on his head, kicking out at both sides. Unlike Chun Li though, his attack doesn’t go forward, and he stays in place, but to compensate, little energy lines issue forth when he initially starts the attack. By spinning the control stick, KJ can keep on spinning on his head, indefinitely, but he will be vulnerable to damage from projectiles or overhead attacks, and will stop if hit hard.

Final Smash: All of KJ’s will and determination are put into one punch. Just his simple A attack jab. If his punch connects, it will send a single opponent to a almost certain death. If he misses though…to bad for Knuckle Joe.

I wasn't particularly in favor of or opposed to Knuckle Joe being a playable character. Still, seeing as how he was deconfirmed on the same day as the release of The Simpsons Movie, it's only appropriate that somebody say this...

All I have to say is, look at the bright side! At least he's in as an AT!

...but I don't look at the bright side very often and this may be stupid and won't help anybody. XD

Yes I agree with andrew14j, Knuckle Joe didnt have that good a chance to get in to start off with so you should be thankful that he is an AT. He looks awesome :)..... all the AT's look good so far

lets face it, the chances weren't even that good of him being an AT. If I was a knuckle joe fan, or even remotely knew who he was i'd be satisfied

In Akaneia, blasting every castle with a pink Land
in the Anime:

Knuckle Joe's Father

Knuckle Joe's Father (ジョーの父親) was a legendary Star Warrior who fought side by side with Meta Knight and was so powerful that he inspired many soldiers to increase their strength. But when Nightmare's army attacked, he was kidnapped by one of the monsters and taken to Nightmare, and later returned to the other Star Warriors- but under Nightmare's control. Meta Knight had no choice but to fight and kill him, but his friend's love for his son prevented him from completely surrendering to Nightmare. His last action before he died was to give Meta Knight his pendant with Joe's baby picture in it, which Meta Knight later gave to Joe. The pendant also has the power inside it that Joe used to destroy Masher 2.0.


Knuckle Joe

Knuckle Joe (ナックルジョー) is a very popular character with many Kirby fans. In the anime, he has a rude personality, often thinking that his problems can only be solved by violence. His fighting moves include Vulcan Jab, Smash Punch, Spin Kick,one hand throw,overhead throw and Rising Break, all of which are similar to those of Fighter Kirby.

Joes first came to Dream Land looking for the Star Warrior who killed his father. King Dedede made Joe think that it was Kirby, but he soon realized he was after the wrong enemy when Meta Knight stopped him from damaging Kirby any more and told him that the one he sought was Meta Knight himself. MK also called Joe a monster because of the cruel, violent way he attacked a defenseless Kirby. In his rematch with Kirby, Joe was surprised to see that, when Kirby transformed into Fighter Kirby, they were both equally matched. Nightmare transformed Joe into a needle-firing monster but when Kirby transformed into Needle Kirby, Joe stated that he did not want to be a monster anymore, and, upon being hit by Kirby's charging attack, was reverted back to his old self. Joe, realizing his errors, decided to leave Dream Land, but not before vowing to fight on Kirby's side from now on. He returned as a supposed monster manager for N.M.E., but was really a monster hunter, tricking N.M.E. into downloading hundreds of mini-monsters into Dream Land and then tricking them into downloading Masher so he and Kirby could destroy him together. Also later, Joe discovered the secret within his father's necklace and used its power to destroy the rebuilt Masher 2.0, and finally much later, Joe returned along with Sirica, Arthur, and his knights, piloting three of the Destrayers to help Kirby and his friends battle Nightmare. Knuckle Joe is an enemy in various Kirby games. He will not make an appearance in Super Smash Bros Brawl.

It Kind of lost all credibility on that. Seriously why would they add that on at the very end of that long description of him? >_> It's now been proved wrong. XD

I didn't say &quot;Generic&quot; I said &quot;Random&quot; >< haha



Owned.
LMAO.What Wiki says, happens.I'm a little confused. So, was he like a recurring rival or something, or just an enemy ala Koopa Trooper?

That's like asking how all the Pokemon can be items. He could come out of *something* and start attacking the nearest opponent.
O_o I like how you just unwittingly predicted not only Assist Tropies, but Knuckle Joe being one.

I love whoever brings these back....

Wow, awesome. This guys is a pretty cool character from the games. And...heh heh, he looks better than Dexoys. They spent more time on KJ. Dude, if they spent this much time on KJ, Dedede's gotta be in.

KJ is one of the important "minions" of the Kirby world; so it's not entirely out of the question that he's an AT, especially considering Sakurai is the creator.

All i can say is, it's cool that he's in as an Assist. A little upsetting for fans of him who wanted to play as him, but come on. He's a minor character. The likelyhood of him being in over someone like Dedede is so small. I didn't even know who he was.

The same thing happens with me every time a new Assist in announced. I instantly think it's a new character, and then realise the contrary.

Who says Dream Land citizens don't have any legs?

And yeah, Knuckle Joe's an Assist Trophy. At least he's in Brawl.
Well considering that Kirby, Dedede, Meta Knight, enemies, and even characters in the anime had no legs, I thought it was thing. lol

Ah, because Kirby etc only have feet, right?

In all fairness, though, your question is pretty pointless. It's like asking why Mario has a moustache. Because it's his character design. Same goes for Knuckle Joe.

oh my god, you guys are *******es. Read what it says on www.smashbros.com. It is a Help character, he will pop up and kick people's ***** and then dissapear again. Look it up and try posting things that are true instead of just random stuff.
