Retsigam
"Beat the Subspace Emissary mode on Intense difficulty with 100% completion"
The true final boss of Super Smash Bros. Brawl! What? Taboo? Mo' like
Da loo! (loo is what the British call a toilet, ergo Taboo=A toilet=Defecation=****. A lesson in humour-Metalord) This is a character who truly encompasses the spirit of Smash Bros., so prepare yourself!
The SSB symbol, upside-down, appears to be his insignia. What could be behind that mask? Perhaps we'll found out if the circumstances are right.
Retsigam's name holds "profound" meaning, relative to Sakurai's obsession with Latin. I wonder what it means? Maybe there's more than one way of looking at it? (mirror)
Seeing as one cannot catch a glimpse of this mysterious character without completing a task as difficult if not more so than All Star mode on Very Hard without healing, one can expect quite the battle ahead of them. But why is it so? High handicap? Huge amount of stamina? Super advanced AI? Or is it that which makes the players of Smash Bros. so restless?
Tires don exits? No, tires
do exits.
Where this character comes from, or how he came to be does not matter. What matters is that he is to be the greatest challenge which Super Smash Bros. has ever posed.

STATS
In keeping with what was implied above; God-tier stats
Power:***** As expected of the final/secret boss and moves taken from other final/secret bosses, Retsigam's attacks are nearly unparalleled in damage and knockback (although not simultaneously) All of them are so diverse however, that it would be best to read the individual descriptions for a measurement of power.
Speed:**** Landspeed comparable to Fox/ Aerial speed- Sonic / Attack speed - variable
Weight:*** Nothing special about weight, as this character was designed for offense. But I suppose full armor and a great sword doesn't hurt.
Jump: **** 3 mid-air jumps: 1st with demonic wings, 2nd angelic wings, and 3rd ethereal wings. Jump heights equal Metaknight's, Pit's, and Charizard's respectively.

What exactly is the spirit of Smash Bros.? According to Sakurai, it is the conglomeration of various universes of the dimension called video gaming. Therefore, a character which embodies that spirit is one who embodies the spirit of video gaming itself. And what better represents the spirit of video gaming in its climax, than the final boss? The last confrontation against the true and main antagonist of the story, bombarded by insane attacks surpassing anything at your disposal. So then! Face your end! Hold steadfast against the tempest of ultimate destruction, found within!
A true Super Smash Bros. moveset stays faithful to its source, (**** you Sakurai!!!) as the whole point is to pay homage to the universe and its creators. So what better can one do, for video gaming itself, then make every move that of a final boss?! Those of you who revile Brawl for its lack of representation, shall soon be appeased! (Note: This only applies to franchises and series that meet the requisites Sakurai stated, as well as those I've played)
Like Snake Retsigam has projectile A-attacks, but far more of them. This is advantageous due to their range, but they lack KO ability. His smashes are just crazy. His specials either possess "special" effects or massive KO ability. (He holds Ganondorf's sword only when using his UpB)
One special nuance about him, is that he uses his right hand for projectile and magic attacks; while his left hand performs grabs and physical moves.
Huh? Oh yes, the
throws. Are you sure you want to know? Their power is not for the human mind to comprehend; doom invariably follows in their revelation.
Alright then, imagine if you will an amoeba; a mindless creature perpetuating its meaningless existence within the slightly less meaningless universe. Powerless against us, harmless, pathetic, only fit for study by the most banal among us. Now, imagine something along the lines of this:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=FFtw7qW7Vcw being specifically used against that inconsequential amoeba. Multiply the overkill by ∞, and you get Retsigam's throws' insanity in the universe of SSB.
Thanks to The Nerd for some move ideas.
*SPOILERS*
A-Attacks
Standard: (Castlevania) "Hellfire"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gEGIT9anJ0&feature=related
Flames of hell expelled by evil incarnate, Dracula! A volley of 3 fireballs which spread out from the hand. What!? The third consecutive attack summons spheres of dark energy that obliterate the enemy! "Have at you!"
1st two attacks release 3 fireballs which move across the stage a short distance with about a second of lag between them. (Fire damage 2% each [Spicy Curry effect]) {Range - 1/5 Brawl Final Destination}
3rd attack shoots 2 spheres of dark energy a slightly further distance successively, at 2 different altitudes, which drag the opponent away. (Electric+Dark damage 6% each) {1/4 FD + High and low height}
Ending lag (1 sec)
Side: (Phoenix Wright) "The Fragrance of Dark Coffee"
The final obstacle to Phoenix Wright's ultimate turnabout. This is Godot's last challenge to Phoenix; the identity of the true murderer. An attack imbued with the entirety of Godot's despair and loathing, the enemy is engulfed in black flames which pour out from Godot's cup. Ah, the fragrance of dark coffee.
A coffee mug is thrown Godot style a short distance, bursting into black flames after breaking. The fire lingers for 1/2 second. (Dark damage/Direct-13%/Residual Fire-<5%) {Tilt Item Throw Distance} [Ganondorf's Standard A]
Up: (Mother/Earthbound) "You cannot grasp the true form of Giygas' attack!"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a4LP-kHrhQ&NR=1
An attack of pure chaos used by the manifestation of evil, Giygas. Losing his corporeality, sanity, and state of existence in this world; Giygas' attack is incomprehensible. Retsigam aims toward the sky, and fires a purple shockwave of unknown properties. The only thing certain about it, is that it repels the opponent at a completely random trajectory. Face the effects of PK Ice β, Flash Ω, and Thunder β, and taste the power of "an almighty idiot"!
(Smash damage 13% + Freezing\Poison\Electrocution) {N/A} [N/A]
Down: (Pikmin) "Titan's Arsenal"
ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1GYSdMVS8E&feature=related
The height of Earth's remnant technology utilized against an extraterrestrial visitor by a
Mandarachnia gargantium; Titan Dweevil. Olimar's greatest challenge yet, he must defeat this beast to rescue Louie! The hazards of the foreign planet combine to ravage his forces; stay strong Olimar! Retsigam equips one of the Titan Dweevil's 4 weapons: The Flare Cannon, Shock Therapist, Monster Pump, and the Comedy Bomb. He then fires toward the ground, sending the artificial elements against his opponents. The Flare Cannon sprays a blast of fire which radiates outwards, the Shock Therapist sends electrical nodes which produce damaging electromagnetic fields, the Monster Pump shoots spheres of water that trip the opponent, and the Comedy Bomb releases a stream of poisonous gas upwards.
This is the power of evolutionary weapons technology! Flinching and minor knockback.
(Fire 8%\Electric 10%\Water+Trip 7%\Poison 13%) {Bowser's down A} [N/A]
Dash: (F-Zero) "The Creators' Challenge"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=VGiD_aXvNHU
After the defeat of Deathborn, the Creators' desire Captain Falcon as their next servant; they challenge him to a race with his soul at stake. What's this?! A..an ethereal copy of Captain Falcon! This is the ultimate test! With his life on the line, the Captain gives it his all; against himself. As Retsigam is dashing, an ethereal Blue Falcon appears and he gets in the pilot's seat. BOOST POWER!! The immaterial vehicle charges into the opponent at 2000 km/h! It then disappears, leaving Retsigam standing to view a new star in the distance.
(Smash 15% After attack Retsigam continues sliding due to momentum) {Falco's Fire Bird} [Wario's Bike during FS]
Side Smash: (Metroid) "Hyper Beam"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lb4p-Qnjiw&NR=1
Samus' final encounter with Mother Brain in the time line, sees her nearly destroyed by her nemesis' ultimate attack! Mother Brain charges energy within her cerebellum, and radiates an unstoppable beam of phantasmagoric light! If not for the intervention of the Super Metroid, Samus would have no longer been of this world. So then ....FIRE!!! Retsigam shines a concentrated ray of light energy from his hand; obliterating the opponent! The beam dissipates a short distance from his position, and leaves the enemy flying laterally off the stage.
(Light+Fire 10% per second - Max Charge 3 sec.) {Wolf's fs} [N/A]
Up Smash: (Meteos) "Meteo's Shower"
Meteo, the planet which seeks to blot out all others from the universe makes its attack! It launches massive streams of phantasmagoric Meteos, for the insidious devices of annihilation. Retsigam takes that ability to obliterate his enemies. Meteos ignite when paired with 3 or more of the same kind, and blast off out of the planet's atmosphere carrying others in its path. Retsigam produces a row of Meteos above him, ready to banish pitiable fools into the vacuum of space. Meteos of the affinities of fire, air, water, iron, herb, glow, soul, soil, zap, zoo, dark, and time each posses traits analogous to its element. Enemies caught in the trajectory of Meteos are constantly affected by their element, taking astronomical amounts of damage. Charging the move increases the # of Meteos from 3 to 4 to finally 5; this inturn increases the power of the row's upward momentum, shooting it higher at a faster speed. The range of the attack is heightened as well. The frequency of a type of Meteos is determined by a stage's own elemental affinity. Note: Retsigam himself can stand on the Meteos without harm, and it acts as a normal platform. Using the us again causes him to add another row of Meteos to the first, increasing its size and upward momentum. Meteos remain after touching the ground, but lose elemental traits. (Max 9 for both) Destructable.
(Smash 10% + ^Fire\Air\Water\Earth\Slash\Electric\Grass\Smash\Light\Darkness <#ofMeteos>% per second OR Unconsciousness\Slow Time^) {Max=Enough to KO an opponent by carrying them off the stage on the upward boundry} [N/A]
Down Smash: (Tetris) "Lv. 9"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwC544Z37qo
Godspeed. That can be the only description to the rate, at which tetrominoes fall in the highest levels of Tetris. So taste the building blocks of Mother Russia! A random tetrominoe nigh instantaneously falls before Retsigam and sends the opponent rocketing into the sky. An I block causes a tetris and does twice as much damage; an L-block simply pwns the enemy. "In Soviet Russia, Tetris plays you!" (Smash damage 25% I=2x damage/L=2x knockback) {Zamus' ds} [Ganondorf's da]
Aerials
Standard: (Megaman) "Alien Wily"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=1RmG_c5jujA
After the destruction of his Wily Machine 2, the doctor is revealed to be an... alien? Yes, his attack on humanity was one of extraterrestrial origins! Megaman must now face an enemy of unknown power and ability. None of Megaman's weapons work! The only thing left is the lame Lead Bubble, and any idiot knows that it's completely useless! The Alien Wily repeats his pattern of attack, a figure 8 movement path. Bombardment by energy blasts! You have no chance to win! Oh, it was just a hologram? ...well shi-. Retsigam summons Alien Wily to circle him once in a figure 8 pattern while firing homing shots at his enemies. Touch of Death! (Smash 5% per hit + Electric 3% per hit) {Wily moves a distance of Marth's fa on each side} [Mario's standard air]
Forward: (Fire Emblem) "Dark Breath"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=8FGWt1_Pz3Q&feature=related
Dragons were a main stay of Fire Emblem games since the very beginning. Final bosses of 1, 3, 6, and 7; as well as normal bosses of almost every other, their presence often means the finality. Through their legacy, shall Roy's absence be avenged! Idoun, the dark dragon of Sword of Seals, lends her power! Retsigam expels black flames from his hand, enveloping his opponents in unfathomable agony. Perish in darkness! (Darkness+Fire 8% per second <Max 3 sec - hold A> {Basically Charizard's Flamethrower in the air} [No Knockback]
Back: (Starfox) "Hand of Andross"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=d-Pzw_ixNUQ&feature=related
The genius of Corneria; Andross reveals himself!! As usual, he manifests himself as a massive disembodied head with similarly detached hands. Disregard the obvious weak spots. Retsigam summons one of Andross' hands to sweep behind him in the air. Backhand slapping by a giant limbless hand? Why does that sound familiar? Nevertheless it's powerful and has exceptional range. Only Andross has the brains to rule!
(Smash 15%) {2x Bowser's ba} [Ganondorf's fa}
Up: (Mario) "Hammer Barrage"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=IgqTFN0V280&feature=related
Bowser's already in the game, and he has his fire breath (albeit unlike his normal attack); so this representation from the Mario franchise will utilize hammers!
Bowser's second final showdown with Mario, sees him throwing hammers at the portly plumber. Hammer Bros. are nothing compared to the rate at which Bowser's flings his mallets! Retsigam tosses a hammer into the air which arcs just like the Hammer Bros.' attack. Completely spammable like Metaknight's ua, this move makes any worker of pipings shudder in terror.
(Smash 3% each) {Hammer Bros. hammer} [Mr. Saturn]
Down: (Soul Blazer Series) "Void Light"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=EDKE9UPSoLU
Dark Gaia's most devastating attack upon the emissary of light, the ironic manifestation of horror into a ray of energy. Retsigam radiates an limited beam of light below him, which hits for large amounts of damage.
The opponent is caught for the duration of the move, and the longer you hold A, the longer the light lasts; dealing damage every .7 seconds. Max length=2.1 seconds. A very slow attack. (Magical damage 20%/ halfed every hit/+ Move repetition weakening every attack) {Ike's forward smash} [Zelda's fs]
Specials
Standard: (Golden Sun) "Djinn Storm" {Chargeable}
Game Over man! Game Over! Possibly the most devastating monster attack in Golden Sun, Dullahan cripples the heroes with its effect. The secret boss then easily secures his victory. A whirlwind of magical energy engulfs the opponent, inflicting heavy damage. When the fool tries to retaliate, it is in vain; all of his moves have been weakened to the max extent of the new repetition mechanic. You may flee, but it is for naught! Charge the attack to increase the damage and size of the debilitating whirlwind! (Slash 20% Max Charge + Attack Power Reduction <2 seconds>) {Max Charge = 1.5 Luigi Tornado's~Directly in front of Retsigam} [No Knockback]
Side: (Street Fighter) "Shun Goku Satsu" {Instant Hell Murder/The Raging Demon} [I know Akuma is not actually a final boss]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95TlG-aYwwE&NR=1
Secret technique of Ansatsuken! An effortless dash forward, that produces countless afterimages! The opponent is captured and set to be judged. With an instantaneous displacement to the Netherworld, the victim is condemned to enravagement by demons and fire. 15 hits and the victim's soul is destroyed. Their lifeless body is tossed aside by the unholy judgment. ... Retsigam stands with his back turned, a
godly man glowing in the background. (Fire+Smash+Darkness 15%+.333 of opponent's damage) {Falco Phantasm} [N/A] Note: The attack leaves the opponent unconscious like Snake's Down Throw, after knocking them a distance of Yoshi's Egg Lay. Use this to KO your opponent by throwing them off the ledge!
Up: (Legend Of Zelda) "The Dark Lord's Ascension"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx0Yfg6EasQ&feature=related
The conflict of Power and Courage, 2 holders of the Triforce fight a final duel for the fate of the world. The Dark Lord, Ganondorf, makes his move against the hero of light! He jumps with his sword extended, slicing the air in a fearsome rise; with his landing does he perform an incredible thrust and a savage cutting spin at the hero. His sword glows in the darkness, while he desires for the eternal end of light. Retsigam brandishes the true sword of Ganondorf, and leaps into the air, with the mighty sword swung in tandem. In the apex does he steady the blade at the enemy, a god waiting to **** all into the pits of hell. He dives to the earth, sword before him, and lands with otherworldy force upon his opponents. There he thrusts, supersonic!! Then he creates a vortex of slashing light, a galeforce!! With this foul blade, will I blot out the light forever!
<Like DeeDeeDee's UpB, this attack can be canceled in the air. The first movement acts like Marth's UpB only more vertical with higher distance and far greater knockback. The second movement has Retsigam diving down at an 30 degree angle, landing with a damaging shockwave and performing either a powerful thrust [If the control stick is held forward] or a mighty spin attack [Control stick held back].
(Slash 16%/Slash 5%/Ground 8% and Slash 13%\Slash 10%) {Wolf's UpB up+down and Ike's uncharged SideB\Ike's up smash} [1.5X Marth's UpB/Metaknight's fa/DDD's UpB landing and massive lateral knockback\same as range comparison]
Down: (Tales RPG) "Indignation"/ "Indignation Judgment"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9C1vlx7XvFw
"Indignation"
"I dwell amidst the abounding light of heaven, now on at the gates to the underworld; come forth thunder of the gods! INDIGNATION!!"
Although this spell is not often used by final bosses, it is often cast by the more powerful secret bosses (like Akuma). After the incantation, an array appears upon the ground and violet light shoots up to heaven. The world turns dark, and then !!!!!!! the wrath of god descends upon your enemies! An incredible bolt of lightning strikes the stage, annihilating enemies in the radius around Retsigam. Takes 5 seconds to cast, with super armour. Casting can be canceled and held, like a chargeable projectile move. The attack however, can only be used if the casting is complete. Area where attack was used is covered in an array and gets struck by lightning in 3 seconds. Can be used in mid-air. (Lightning 30% + Stun) {Diameter - 1/4 FD} [Pikachu's DB Full Hit]
"Indignation Judgment" - Up Taunt = 1 use
(Used when Up taunt is in effect, and is cast instead of Indignation with Down B)
This... is true power!!! The ultimate manifestation of God's wrath by mortal will, this spell strikes fear into both enemy and ally. An archaic array radiates on the ground as it foretells doom; bolts of lighting strike the engulfed area and then... a mighty angelic sword strikes the center, drowning victims in a wave of electricity!! A final tremendous strike of godly wrath finishes the holy cremation. "I'll show you, your powerlessness!"
(Light+Electric 66% All hit) {1/3 FD} [Ridiculous] <20% Self-Damage>
Throws
Grab: (Resident Evil) "Saddler's Grasp"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HLk_P640aps&feature=related
Saddler, leader of the Los Illuminados, controls his minions with power over the Las Plagas in their bodies. Through this he sought to control America and the world, as well as foiling Leon's attempts at rescuing Ashley. Unbeknownst to his opponents, Retsigam has already spread Los Plagas spores over the field, which have infiltrated their bodies. Although at an early stage, he is able to control them at a short distance. Wielding a living staff of perverse existence, he holds the foe in total stasis; to be subject to his will. However, the slave can break free of the hold; as they are but still in the early stages.
(Grab becomes stronger with time and damage: max grab power is 3x harder to break out of then Master Hand's) (Power resets with enemy death, power decreased at higher damages)
(Grab non-existent directly after enemy respawn:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4Ql2-9IlKw&feature=related)
Hit: (Baten Kaitos) "Enchanted Blade"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYQUpQlSR2E&feature=related
Malpercio holds the End Magnus, the card which holds the essence of nothingness. With its power it seeks to bring about the end of all things, as is the wont of Elder Gods. Against those who stand in its way, it wields a sword forged from its own bone; draining the life of its victims in a blast of energy. Retsigam swings a curved red sword down onto the enemy, causing a bright explosion of plasma and electricity; whilst absorbing their life force. With each swing, he heals 1% of damage while inflicting harm to his opponent. (Electric+Light+Slash 3% per hit) {N/A} [N/A] <Using this attack greatly weakens the strength of his grab>
Forward: (Sonic the Hedgehog) "Egg Laser"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=7RiXXl6cves
A laser powered by the Master Emerald! Infinite energy, twisted into a coherent beam of destruction by the genius Dr. Robotnik (Eggman my ***!) against his eternal nemesis; Sonic the Hedgehog. The Final Egg Bot appears behind Retsigam charging its laser! BWEW! The opponent is blown away at light speed! Is this Doomsday? (Light+Electrical 15%) {Laser extends across whole stage} [Pikachu's Full Charge Headbutt]
Back: (R-Type) "Bydo Desperation"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYiUDjCafXo
The final battle to save the universe, against the source of it all; The Bydo Mother. It..it's opening a dimensional rift!? Ah, it has entered into the world of Smash Bros.; it launches its arms at the opponent, then disappears as the tear in space time closes. The Bydo Mother appears behind the opponent and launches its arms in succession, and they tear into the victim with otherworldly ferocity! The pitiable cadaver is then sent into the darkest reaches of space. (Slash 7% each) {N/A} [Ike's Quick Draw]
Up: (Kirby) "Marx's Ideal" (Obvious a play on Carl Marx)
http://youtube.com/watch?v=RWlFBkqiTKA&feature=related
Marx, the creature that wished to rule all of Dreamland; through the use of Kirby he revived Nova and brought his dreams to fruition! Now he has become a entity beyond all others, and only Kirby stands in the way of his dominion. Marx shoots out from a portal beneath the opponent and throws them with him into the air. There he divides in two and forms a dimensional singularity, swallowing the enemy and sending them hurtling through a universe of chaos. Then they suddenly fall from the sky, into the gaping maw of inane power of Retsigam.
(Slash 10%/Darkness 10%) {N/A} [N/A]
Down: (Metal Gear Solid) "The Shagohod's Pursuit, Volgin's Last Stand" / "The Boss" 2 throws in one! 1st use "The Shagohod's Pursuit..." / consecutive uses until KO "The Boss"
"The Shagohod's Pursuit, Volgin's Last Stand"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=sZjVDx_uEK8&feature=related
<Seeing as all the final boss Metal Gears are shown in Shadow Moses Island, this move uses the Shagohod from Snake Eater.>
TIME PARADOX!!!! You can't do this!! You have to understand the future! But no matter; the pinnacle of Soviet technology has joined the fray with the descendant of its destroyer! EVA comes on her motorcycle and Retsigam jumps into the side car. The Shagohod appears, with Volgin controlling it with his electrical powers! EVA takes off across the stage with the Shagohod in pursuit (running over the opponent), and Retsigam readies an RPG. The engine of destruction reaches the opponent, and rends asunder their corpse with its Archimedes Screws.
Phoosh! A rocket is fired! BAAAAAAAAMMMMM!!!! Volgin is hit and then suddenly struck by lighting. In a shower of explosions, the Shagohod is no more. Mission Complete. There were however some... casualties. (Smash 5%/Slash 10%/Fire 15%) {N/A} [N/A]
"The Boss"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Tjsgcp4Z1xc&feature=related
Naked Snake's final battle against his mentor and mother-figure; The Boss. A master of CQC and equipped with The Patriot, she fights for her country; even at the cost of her life and the knowledge of being deceived. Her spirit lives on through the actions of Retsigam, as he CQC's the opponent (tripping and slamming into the ground, rather than suffocating like Snake) and fires with the Patriot; shooting nationalism into the enemy, even if it kills them. (Smash 10%/Slash 15%) {N/A} [N/A]
Shield: (Eternal Darkness) "Magick Shield"
"Bankorok, Santak, Chattur'gha/Ulyaoth/Xel'lotath, Pargon, Pargon, Pargon, Pargon" The 7-point shield spell cast on Augustus during the final confrontation against the chosen ones. It surrounds one with orbiting lights of magick, which protect from damage. With Chattur'gha's influence the color is red, and deflects physical attacks; stunning the enemy. With Ulyaoth, blue and reflection of the elements. With Xel'lotaht the aura is green and the forces of light and darkness, representatives of the human mind and morality, are absorbed. However, Chattur'gha's influence causes massive shield destruction against powerful elemental attacks; Ulyaoth's within the forces of light and darkness; and Xel'lotath in the presence of mindless force.
Retsigam, like Yoshi has a special shield. However, the properties as well as the aesthetics are wholly different from normality. With each life, Retsigam possess 7 Magick Shield barriers to defend with. A hit removes a barrier, but in turn it completely stops the flow of the attack. Every time the shield is used, the color of the barriers change; from red to blue to green, back to red and so on. As explained above, the colors endow special properties to the barriers. It must be known though, that if the shield is hit by an attack of a preceding affinity to that of the current color; 2 barriers are taken. 1 Barrier unit is recovered every 30 seconds. Note: Retsigam cannot shield when all barriers are gone.
Power Shield/Perfect Shield: "Shield of Mantorok"
A magick shield formed from the power of the Ancient of Death and Decay. It's strength far surpasses that of Augustus' master. The shield defends against all attacks of the mortal kind. If a perfect shield is performed, no matter what the current color is, the barriers will be purple. This endows the shield with all the properties of the 3 gods' influences, as well as that of a normal perfect shield.
Roll Dodge: (Tales RPG) "Angelic Movement"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=D_neAV6cZ3o
Like Mithos, Retsigam is able to warp time and space and teleport instantaneously a short distance from his current position. In a flash of light, Retsigam displaces himself behind the enemy or backwards to evade.
Side Step: (Fire Emblem) "Dark Illusion"
http://youtube.com/watch?v=3UuAOa-A4Rc&feature=related
<Although Nergal isn't actually a final boss, his dodge was just too analogous to the circumstances around Retsigam>
Nergal, the man who harnessed quintessence to transcend humanity, is beset by the heroes. There is no hope in their pathetic existence of touching him, his magicks swiftly move him from their futility. An instantaneous dodge back, his incredible aura leaves an outline of his path. Truly, the worthlessness of humans is amazing. Retsigam steps into the "depth" of the world, leaving an afterimage to confuse the opponent.
Aerial Dodge: (Super Smash Bros.) "Teleporting Taboo"
(I'm not going to put a link to the video, because 1. You have already seen the final boss battle or 2. You're going to see it anyway)
Directly from the pathetic, non-secret, default, final boss of SSBB; Retsigam harnesses Taboo's ability to instantaneously disappear in mid-air. He leaves a flash of light from where he disappeared, and is carried by momentum even in his material absence.

Side: Laughs maniacally and wags his finger at the opponent. (If the opponent isn't on the stage, then he faces the screen; mocking the player) Sonic takes 1% if this is used against him.
Down: Snaps and changes the stage's music into an analogous boss theme, relative to one of the origins of his moveset. (Mushroomy Kingdom-Bowser's Boss Music/Green Hill-Sonic 3 Final Boss Music etc.) Use again to change music back.
