This character's moves are based around various NES Zapper games, not just Duck Hunt.

This is the greatest wtf character idea ever! The Duck Hunter would just be a hand holding an NES Zapper. The hand would look like a white glove, like Master Hand only smaller. He'd stay in the background like Pokemon Trainer, and you'd control his dog.

I usually think that making up move sets for characters is pretty pointless, but I know if I don't people are going to say "What moves would he have?" I'm not going to make an entire move list, but I'll put what I think his specials could be.

Special Moves:
B: The dog hits you with his bone.

Up B: A duck flies the dog upward.

Side B: The dog throws a clay disc from clay shooter. You can control the direction of the disc by tilting the control stick up and down, just like Pit's arrows. Letting go of B makes the hunter shoot this disc, and it crumbles into a cloud of dust that hurts anyone hit by it. This move would be similar to Zelda's Side B in Melee.

Down B: The dog drops a cardboard cut out from Hogan's Alley. The cut out stands up and the hunter shoots it down. The idea would be to try to drop the cardboard cut outs on players so they get shot.

Taunt: You hear the sound of a missed gun shot and the dog laughs.

Final Smash: The dog starts spraying out a bunch of feathers. Anyone hit by the feathers becomes dressed like a duck and the hunter shoots at them. These shots are more powerful than usual, like being hit with a bob-omb.

This is the only character I can think of that would have the same wtf effect that G&W had in Melee. Now that we've seen G&W, characters like Sukapon and other that people have said just aren't as shocking. This character brings the same wtf-ness that G&W did, but in a way different enough from G&W to still surprise people when they see him in the game.

Jag förstår inte. Vad sa du?
*face palm* joke thread, right? If not, you need some serious help...those happy drugs get inside your mind, man...you'll go crazy:psycho:

EDIT: my bad, Freeman, didn't notice it was you...meh, still, a WTF character fo' sho'
EDIT (again): Just read the moveset...I'm guessing the dog does most of the fighting, and has the hunter in the foreground, out of sight? Meh...I can see that...*goes into deep contemplation*

I really would like to question what ever possessed you to think up this character and what demon told you it would be a good character.... But I really fear karma.

I love how you say it's based off various NES Zapper games, not just Duck Hunt.

But then the moveset is clearly based only on Duck Hunt.

Yeah, I like the part in Duck Hunt with the clay disks and the Hogan's Alley targets.

Ya, noticed that after the post. My bad.

Still, pretty minimal. What with the Duck Hunt Dog and everything, it's obviously a majority of Duck Hunt.

So whatever, still not a very good character idea, in my opinion. Why not just have the dog? Why do you have to have the stupid hand? Unless the character is going to change to represent the different games (like Pokemon Trainer) then why do you have to have the extra character in the background if it's not there to tie together something else?

Once again, my bad.

I shouldn't reply to threads if I don't actually care enough about the character to read the moveset.

Oh well. I still think it's a dumb character. So... Whatever.

I like how pretty much everyone who's criticized my idea has admitted to not even reading it.
