Specials :GCB:
Neutral Special: Bull Kiss/ My Name Is
Viola pulls out and throws four ether fueled darts forward. Mashing "B" makes her throw darts repeatedly.
If "B" is held, she charges up the darts with explosive magic, then throws them forward in a "V" formation.
The darts are thrown downward while mid-air and explode on contact with opponents or after 2 seconds.
(Origin: Bayonetta 3)


Side Special: Disc Changer
Viola throws Mab Dachi forward, making it rapidly spin in place to deal continuous damage before it returns.
Charging halfway covers Mab Dachi in flames. Charging completely summons Cheshire's claws once thrown.
Tilting the Left Stick upward after inputting Side Special makes Viola throw Mab Dachi directly above herself.
(Origin: Bayonetta 3)


Up Special: Shredder
Viola conjures a magic circle and propels herself with it, quickly charging forward with Mab Dachi outstretched.
If Viola comes into contact with an opponent, she uses Mab Dachi to summon Cheshire's claws for a follow up.
Using this move while mid-air propels Viola upwards instead. Cheshire's claws can bury or spike the opponent.
(Origin: Bayonetta 3)


Down Special: Witch Time/ Upsurge
Viola briefly enters a defensive stance with Mab Dachi. Block an attack and she'll slows down the opponent.
Witch Time's duration depends on the damage dealt. Blocking at the last second makes Witch Time longer.
If inputted mid-air, Viola plummets downward to punch the ground, creating a shockwave of magic energy.
(Origin: Bayonetta 3)


Shield Special: Hey, Cheshire!
Viola throws Mab Dachi a set distance forward, stabbing the ground, then summoning Cheshire temporarily.
Once onstage, Cheshire will use five moves (Brute Bite, Caliente Claw, Torchin' Tail, Body Press & Bass Boost).
This means Viola will fight bare-handed until the summoning is deactivated manually or when time runs out.
(Origin: Bayonetta 3)


Final Smash: Faerie’s Ferociousness
Viola stabs herself with Mab Dachi while saying "Hara-kiri!", creating an explosion of magic crystals around herself.
Any opponents caught in the explosion of crystals are sent to Ginnungagap and confronted by Viola in Faerie Form.
Then she darts around to attack with her claws, stomps on them, then finishes off by firing an energy beam at them.
