Smash Champion
Summon Name: The Prism
Summon "Series": Pink Floyd
Summon Origin: Dark Side of the Moon (Album, 1973)
Who doesn't love collecting albums? I think that if we're going for the "gotta catch 'em all" style gameplay, then a wacky thing like this seems fun. When summoned, the Prism will simply sit on the ground... but suddenly, a beam of white light will shoot from the sky, hitting the prism - and from the other side will spring a rainbow! Whilst the rainbow does damage if it hits you directly, it's interesting in that it acts as a platform that can be stood on. The angle will slightly change over time as the angle of the laser changes - and if the Prism is hit, it'll move, moving the platform with it! (Notably, the white laser isn't a platform.) It'll stay on stage for around 30 seconds before the light goes out and the Prism disappears by ascending to the great gig in the sky.
Need I say why this should be represented somehow? Dark Side of the Moon is one of the best-selling albums ever, a work of auditory (and visual!) art, and the source of endless band kids asking what brand you're wearing and, in response, asking who "Pink Floyd" is. The icongraphy of this art alone is baked into pop culture as a cornerstone of an entire format of entertainment, a representation of albums as a whole (and far more appropriate than other artistic covers like Nirvana's Nevermind.)
Also, I should explain this - the concept is based on, well, the very concept of collecting. One of the biggest things for people to collect (aside from maybe stamps and coins) is albums, because if it wasn't, you wouldn't have had folks in the 90s and 00s diving through crates of endless records looking for samples of Doctor in Distress for their new jungle album that'll sell like two copies! Whilst it's not a Pokemon, or from another monster collecting game, the very concept of collecting that's such an integral part of those games has a basis in earlier forms - and before you whippersnappers had those Gamey Boys and Nintendoes, we had good old vinyl players! (why am I saying this I'm literally 18)
But yeah, feel free to tell me if this isn't allowed or something of the like but I hope it's at least somewhat of interest.
