----V.F: Piccolo----
Piccolo is Gokuu's oldest rival (unless you count Kuririn or Yamcha). His
father was Piccolo Daimou, the evil incarnate that was released from Kami. Kami
had to get rid of all the evil in his body to become God, and Piccolo was that
evil. When Gokuu killed Piccolo Daimou, Piccolo vowed his revenge, and spit out
an egg with this Piccolo in it.
This Piccolo has fought alongside and against Gokuu, but has played an even
more important role in Gohan's life. As Gohan's fighting trainer, he instilled
a fighting sense into Gohan. He even began to care for the little tyke. After
a while, Piccolo gave up on the whole rivalry. Being a Namekian, Piccolo has
the ability to regenerate lost limbs, extend body parts great distances, and use
magical powers.
Move list:
Hold L (or R) + B = Sonic Kick (3-D attack). As with all the 3-D attacks, they
have their uses in dodging and attacking. 8/10
Towards, Down, Down-Towards + Y = High Mystic Attack. Piccolo extends his arm a
great length. A nice, quick smack in the face. Can catch the unprepared off
guard. 7/10
Towards, Down, Down-Towards + B = Low Mystic Attack. Piccolo ducks and extends
his arm a great length. A nice, quick smack to the knee. Most people expect a
high attack, so this one is good. 8/10
Away, Down, Towards + Y = Physical Counter/Mystic Blow. If an enemy tries to
use a physical attack on you, Piccolo retaliates with a painful attack. If you
have the reflexes, then Piccolo's the man. 9/10
(While in the air) Towards, Down + B = Bukuuh Kyaku (Diving Kick Flurry). While
in the air, Piccolo dives downward and kicks like a mad man...er, mad Namekian.
If it connects, it really looks painful! And it is! 6/10
Away, Down + A = Shocking Stunner. Piccolo uses his amazing mental powers to
freeze the enemy in his tracks, rendering them stunned for a brief moment. Too
hard to hit them with it, though. 5/10
Towards, Down, Down-Towards + A = Yuudoh Energy Dan (Seeking Ki blast). Piccolo
launches a small orb that seeks out the enemy and smacks them. Good for enemies
that like to hop around a lot. Does a fair amount of damage, too. 8/10
*Away, Down, Towards + A = Gekiretsudokan. Piccolo's massive 1-arm shot is his
45 degree blast. This attack is considered by some to be his most powerful
attack, while the next attack is what the rest of use think his is.
**Down, Away, Towards + A = Mankaksopoppo. Piccolo's "Screw Beam" attack. This
attack differs from most of the Super Shots because it doesn't explode once
hitting the enemy, it drills through them, hitting several times. Even if they
block it, it'll still travel through them, hitting several times for blocked
damage. 9/10
%Towards, Away, Down, Up + Y = Desperation Attack: Aerial Assault (Chou
Bakuretsu Ken). Piccolo uppercuts them, beats them around, then launches 5
blasts that explode on the enemy. It must hurt being you. 8/10
Overall:
Piccolo is a surprisingly good character. His Mankaksopoppo hits more than
once, and leaves them reeling. He can hit you at a distance, he can counter
attacks, he can freeze you and attack you, and he can do several other things
that just make you cry out in pain. Mix it up between offensive and defensive
with him. Throw them off, then throw them even further. |
