5	%% * References like MythologyGag, CaptainErsatz, ContinuityNod, Expy, "NoCelebritiesWereHarmed",
6	%% or ShoutOut go in ShoutOut/CapcomVsWhatever. No exceptions!
7	%%
8	%% * If a character's tropes are only relevant in their original series/franchise but aren't featured
9	%% in this game, they don't have a place here. No exceptions!
10	%%
11	%% * Check the Trivia and YMMV tabs under Trivia/TatsunokoVsCapcom and YMMV/TatsunokoVsCapcom to see if
12	%% the example you're going to add isn't there. If it's subjective or a factoid, it doesn't belong here.
13	%% No exceptions!
14	%%
15	%% * Remember to follow proper example indentation: Tropes should not be grouped together, even if one trope
16	%% naturally leads into another. If multiple tropes can describe one attack, mentioning the same attack twice
17	%% is preferable to having both tropes on one bullet point with a slash between them.
18	%%
19	%% * Don't get clever with potholes. Changing trope names to make it "more accurate" to the specific example
20	%% is confusing and unnecessary. On a similar note, don't hide the trope name with spoilers, even if it would
21	%% spoil the character's ending. This game has an Excuse Plot, so spoilers aren't a big deal anyway.

32	--> ''"You can talk the talk, but you can't walk the walk yet, loser!"''
33
34	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/HirokiYasumoto
35	-> '''First appearance:''' ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII: The New Generation''
36
37	-> The main character of the ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' series, he's a New York grappler who holds a grudge against [[BigBad Gill]], after he'd beaten up Alex's trainer, Tom. After it, he decided to continue fighting and improving his skills against new opponents.
38
39	* BackStab: Keeping a staple from the ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' series, his Flash Chop changes his grab attacks, as his opponent is facing away from him.
40	%%* BattleStrip: In his intro pose.
41	* BerserkButton: It doesn't matter how much he wants to fight Ryu. Call him "stupid", and Alex will kick your ass so bad, that you won't sit in any chair for the rest of your life, as seen in his ending:
42	--> [[spoiler:'''Galactor Soldier:''']] ''Do you really want to spend the rest of your life chasing after some stupid Japanese street fighter?''
43	--> '''Alex:''' ''Stupid...?''
44	--> (cue asskicking)
45	* BootstrappedTheme: "Jazzy NYC". Another of the thousands of remixes of the NYC level from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII''.
46	%%* BrooklynRage
47	* CaptainObvious: His victory quote towards Tekkaman somehow sounded like one [[SubvertedTrope until you read the other sentence]].
48	--> ''"You must be an ''outer'' space knight. Cuz that getup would never catch on in the Bronx!"''
49	* GratuitousEnglish: He's voiced in this game by Creator/HirokiYasumoto. As an Internet dweller noted, he now sounds like a Japanese man trying and failing to sound like a dude from Brooklyn.
50	--> ''"Ret's rumble!"''
51	--> ''"Why we waiting?"''
52	%%* MartialArtsHeadband
53	%%* MeteorMove: His "Hyper Bomb".
54	* MightyGlacier: Albeit not at the same level he was in his home series, though he is one of the only normal-sized characters in the game with no double jump, limiting his mobility. But as usual, once he's on the offensive, he can dish it out quite well in the hands of a skilled player.
55	* SwitchOutMove: His Dropkick special forces a Snapback, forcing his opponent's partner to take over. He is the only solo fighter capable of using a Snapback, since the only others are Lightan and PTX.
56	* SuplexFinisher: Gets one, which is also one of the few which works against giants as well as it does against foes his own size.
57	--> '''Gold Lightan:''' ''You threw me! You really threw me! Are you really human!?''
58	* UseYourHead: His "Stun Gun Headbutt" Level 1 Super: a flurry of headbutts which damages and stuns the opponent.
59	%%* WalkingShirtlessScene
60	* WorthyOpponent: He praises Ryu as the world's strongest fighter ever. See BerserkButton above.
61	--> ''"Never thought I'd meet you here, Ryu. Guess I should be grateful for this opportunity!"''
62	* WrestlerInAllOfUs: His arsenal includes slams and wrestling moves. In this game, he gains a dropkick followup to his "Slash Elbow". Of course, Alex ''is'' a grappler. That said, some of his moves are more rooted in kickboxing.
63	--> '''''HYPA BOMB!'''''

67	[[quoteright:191:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tvc-batsu_1973.png]]
68
69	--> ''"There's only one rule to fighting: the strong will win."''
70
71	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/NobuyukiHiyama
72	-> '''First appearance:''' ''VideoGame/RivalSchools: United By Fate''
73
74	-> The main character of the ''VideoGame/RivalSchools'' franchise, Batsu is a HotBlooded teen who got transferred to the Taiyo High School, and got involved in many fights going on between his new school and competing education centers.
75
76	* AscendedExtra: Prior to his ascension to playable, he appeared as part of Kyosuke's Level 3 super in ''[[VideoGame/CapcomVsSNK2MarkOfTheMillennium Capcom vs. SNK 2]]''.
77	* BootstrappedTheme: The "Taiyo High School Rooftop" theme.
78	* CombinationAttack: His Level 3 super (carried over from ''Rival Schools'') is a special case as he teams up with his partner to perform one of three suped-up versions of his own specials, the specific attack depending on your choice of characters. If his partner is down, he'll always use his Hyper Guts Bullet, but it's been buffed thanks to his partner's spirit.
79	* CounterAttack: A variation of this via his Tardy Counter from his home series, where he's able to guard cancel into a move that provides SuperArmor and a nasty amount of flinching on hit.
80	* DivingKick: His Ryuusei Kick (Meteor/Shooting Star Kick). Oddly enough, it also shares the same name as Casshern's variation of it.
81	* GratuitousEnglish: Mocked in his victory quote against Alex:
82	--> ''"Um... Um... I... don'toh... speaku Engrish! Sankyu! Good-bye!"''
83	* HotBlooded: His attacks are based on his "burning vigor".
84	--> '''Jun The Swan:''' ''You think it only takes guts to win? Someone needs a reality check.''
85	--> '''Karas:''' ''... You are full of passion... That is something a Karas lacks...''
86	* ManlyTears: His "Team-Up Technique" hyper move makes use of his partner. If said partner has been KO'd already, not only is it changed so that it's the partner's spirit helping him out and Batsu is crying, but [[ThePowerOfFriendship the attack does more damage.]]
87	* ShotoClone: Seems to take [[Franchise/StreetFighter Ken's]] place, with his fiery Guts Uppercut, and weak but still useful projectile. And much like Ken himself, he's one of the stronger characters on offense with some solid and quick simple moves and mixup.
88	* TitleDrop: His Level 3 Super, where he teams up with his partner, is called "United By Fate".
89	* UnskilledButStrong: By his own admission.
90	--> ""I betcha don't have as much guts as me!""
91	* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes:
92	--> (after winning against Casshan) ''"I... I can't take it anymore! I absolutely hate dogs! Sorry, but I've got to get out of here!"''

100	-> '''First appearance:''' ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII: The World Warriors''
101
102	-> An InterpolSpecialAgent who holds a grudge against [[BigBad M. Bison]] for [[YouKilledMyFather killing her father]].
103
104	* AmazonianBeauty: Her legs are massive pillars of muscle and [[KickChick most of her attacks and poses emphasize them]].
105	* AnimeChineseGirl: One of the most famous examples in all media.
106	* BadassAdorable: Would you expect a woman like her to jump for joy or strike a V Sign and proclaim "Yatta!"?
107	* BootstrappedTheme: "China Stage" from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII''.
108	* ButtonMashing: Her Lightning Kick is triggered by mashing the attack buttons, much like in her home series.
109	* DoubleJump: One of the few members of the cast who can perform a ''Triple'' Jump, actually.
110	* GoombaStomp: Her iconic Yousoukyaku (Hawk Claw Leg) command normal and her Kakukyaku Raku (Crane Leg Fall) command normal have her stomping on her enemies mid-jump.
111	* EnergyBall: Her Kikouken (Qigong Fist) and Kikoushou (Qigong Palm) fire a slow moving projectile and generate a giant SphereOfDestruction in front of her, respectively.
112	* FragileSpeedster: Has somewhat below-average HP, but is meant to dominate with her solid speed, decently-bulky normals and aerial versatility. [[WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer Though sadly, her projectile game isn't as efficient while also having a rather linear playstyle]].
113	* KickChick: Much like in her home series, her fighting style heavily prioritizes kicks, as exemplified by her signature Hyakuretsukyaku and Spinning Bird Kick specials.
114	* MurderousThighs
115	--> (after winning a MirrorMatch) ''"After fighting you I can't but wonder... Are my thighs really that thick?"''
116	--> '''Tekkaman Blade:''' ''Those are some amazing leg muscles. What do you do to work them out? Oh... Sorry. I didn't know you were self-conscious about them.''
117	--> '''Zero:''' ''Your kicks are impressive for a human. I'd probably lose a couple of parts if you were to land one on me.''
118	%%* {{Odango}}: Covered variant.
119	* RapidFireFisticuffs: Her iconic Hyakuretsukyaku (Hundred Rending Legs) AKA Lightning Kick is a kick-based variant.
120	%%* SheFu
121	* StormingTheCastle: Her ending in ''Ultimate All-Stars'' involves [[spoiler:her and the Tatsunoko heroes raiding the Shadaloo base]].
122	* SuperCop: An InterpolSpecialAgent.
123	--> '''Ken The Eagle:''' ''I had no idea Interpol had such powerful agents. Science Ninja cannot be remiss in its training!''

126	[[folder:Kaijin No Soki]]
127	[[quoteright:239:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tvc-kaijinnosoki_6511.png]]
128
129	--> ''"When my mind and body are one, cutting even the strongest steel is no different than slicing tofu!"''
130
131	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToshiyukiKusuda
132	-> '''First appearance:''' ''VideoGame/OnimushaDawnOfDreams''
133
134	-> A powerful warrior clad in a blue armor who stand against the evil Hideyoshi and burn down the "Genma Trees" which are gathered from all Japan.
135
136	* AwesomeButImpractical:
137	** [[ChargedAttack He can power up his Oni Senjutsu (Ogre War Tactics) Level 1 Hyper Combo to become a big shockwave/thunderstorm]], too bad it takes way too long to work in a real match. And usually there tends to be a number of setups/gimmicks required for it to work. Other than that, it's often best to find followups for the non-charged versions.
138	** His [[CounterAttack deflect moves]], as Soki is best at gaining momentum and the frames for those counters tend to be short.
139	* BadPowersGoodPeople
140	--> '''Tekkaman Blade:''' ''Your soul is given over to evil. That path is one all humans fear to tread... I fear that it might be my destiny...''
141	* BattleAura: His body is surrounded by a mist of darkness during his Level 3.
142	* BootstrappedTheme: Two of them: "Blue/Pale Oni" is his battle theme. When he activates his SuperMode, it changes to "Red Oni".
143	* {{BFS}}: He even has two, which wields in the successful ending of his Level 3 super. (See SuperpoweredEvilSide) His standing light attack is ''the'' furthest reaching one in the game, and his forward heavy attack command normal has a ton of insane range on that behalf.
144	* CounterAttack: His Hajiki Issen (Repel Brandish), as per his home series' tradition. Doesn't work against projectiles however, and the windows for the counter frames tend to be short.
145	* DarkIsNotEvil: He's one of the "heroes" of the game. In his ending, he even [[spoiler:helps [[VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins Arthur]]]].
146	* HealThyself: Absorbing/catching the Oni souls either heals him or also steals his opponent's super bar energy to extend his transformation.
147	* ImmuneToFlinching: A unique shtick of his is that he has super armor on some of his moves, while his Level 3 transformation has full-on Hyper Armor for the duration. His Tetsu Saiha (Iron Smash Crush) shoulder tackle is one prime example of the former.
148	* ImplacableMan: While he is unable to summon his partner during his Level 3, he can shake off ''anything'' you throw at him [[TheSlowWalk as he slowly approaches you]]. Hilariously in ''[=UAS=]'' test builds though, his super armor was removed during his Level 3, but was returned in later versions.
149	* KatanasAreJustBetter: His main {{BFS}} is curved like a katana. Oddly enough, due to Soki's demon blood, he and Karas are portrayed as rivals in this game.
150	* LauncherMove: Not only his standard launcher, but his Rensa Issen (Connecting Brandish) attack where he performs a single-turning swing forward that launches the opponent a small bit. Done as a followup from a huge majority of his moves to provide offensive utility.
151	* LateArrivalSpoiler: For those who haven't played ''VideoGame/OnimushaDawnOfDreams'', Soki is [[spoiler:the reincarnation of the Omnipotent God of Darkness]], hence his powers.
152	* MightyGlacier: Has one of the higher HP pools of the game (though he funny enough, doesn't share a spot with anyone due to being in between Alex/Tekkaman and three other characters below him). However, his moves are a bit sluggish and his mobility is still something left to be desired.
153	%%* PlayingWithFire: His Joukaken (Purification Sword) Level 1 Hyper Combo.
154	* PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: His voice drops several octaves during his Level 3.
155	* RedBaron:
156	--> ''"I am Soki-slayer of demons, destroyer of Darkness! I am the '''Oni of the Ashes'''!"''
157	** Also ties into MeaningfulName, where it literally means "Pale Ogre of the Embers". Guess what color Soki is decked out in and the color of his primary sword.
158	%%* RedOniBlueOni: Invoked by his theme songs.
159	* TheRival: Karas. They are both swordsmen with a demonic motif, and are seen crossing swords in the game's opening cinematic.
160	%%* ShockAndAwe: Again, his Oni Senjutsu.
161	* StormingTheCastle: His ending in this game and ''Cross Generation of Heroes'', where [[spoiler:he joins Arthur to storm [[BigBad Astaroth]]'s castle]].
162	* SuperpoweredEvilSide: His Level 3 hyper combo, Oni Kakusei (Ogre Awakening), consists of him [[DarkIsNotEvil tapping into his Oni powers]] and transforming into his "Black Oni" Onimusha form (though at the cost of losing his ability to use his partner). This, along with PowerGlows and MaskOfPower, is a sign to ''get as far away as possible''.
163	%%* PoweredArmor: A feature of his transformation.
164	* PowerEchoes: When he transforms into the Black Oni. [[TheUnintelligible His voice is also incomprehensible during the state]].
165	* TwentyFourHourArmor: The Black Oni mode also gradually consumes his Super bar.
166	* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: With each successful attack he lands in his Black Oni form, Oni Souls are released (which Soki can collect/absorb by using the partner button). Once he obtains 7 red orbs, he can activate his ''true'' level 3 hyper combo, the Oni Nagi (Ogre Mower), where he [[DualWielding wields]] ''[[DualWielding both]]'' of his {{BFS}}es and sends you on a one-way trip to Pain Central (and it does indeed inflict a notable amount of damage for the effort).
167	%%* RedEyesTakeWarning: During his Level 3
168	* SwordPlant: His Oiuchi (Pursuit Strike/Final Blow) attack, which not only hits low, but of course, can also [[KickThemWhileTheyAreDown hit downed opponents]].
169	* TooLongDidntDub: "Kaijin no Soki" in the localization of ''Ultimate All Stars''. Probably done to prevent confusion with Saki. Still pretty strange, since many earlier promotional videos from ''Cross Generation of Heroes'' had shown english translation for the characters of the game, and there he was "Souki" (his name when fully romanized with the extra vowel).

176
177	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/MayumiTanaka
178	-> '''First appearance:''' ''VideoGame/MegaManLegends''
179
180	-> A digger who, alongside his friends/surrogates Roll and Barrel Caskett, explores the ruins left by the {{precursors}} searching for energy-generating refractors that are more precious than gold in their Scavenger World.
181
182	* AmbidextrousSprite: Volnutt's buster arm is switched when he switches sides.
183	* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: [[http://tatsunoko.vscapcom.com/cha_volnutt.html# He]] looks hardcore in his ''Ultimate All-Stars'' art compared to their ''Cross Generation of Heroes'' art.
184	* ArmCannon: The Mega Buster of course, plus the Machine Gun if you switch to it.
185	* BeamOWar: When done with supers, his machine gun will generally win. This is because it has one of the longest durations and will thus hit an opponent immediately after their beam ends, has a firing rate that is equal to beams despite not being an actual beam, has a fast startup even if you enter it in late, and can be done concurrently with the charging of the best non-super projectile in the game.
186	* BootstrappedTheme: "The Flutter vs. Gesellschaft".
187	* ButtonMashing: His Level 3 Hyper does more damage the more you do this.
188	* ChargedAttack: Gets one in this game in the form of his [[SignatureMove signature Mega/Rock Buster]].
189	* DifficultButAwesome: By weapon switching in between combos, Mega can extend and increase his combos EXPONENTIALLY.
190	* MoreDakka: His "Machine Gun Sweep" Level 1 super has him shooting a plenty amount of bullets from his ArmCannon.
191	* SwissArmyAppendage: His hand can become an ArmCannon, [[ThisIsADrill a drill]], and a [[DeflectorShields shield generator]].
192	* ThisIsADrill: His second Level 1 Hyper Combo transforms his ArmCannon into a drill.
193	--> '''Batsu:''' ''I've fought a lot of punks in my time, but none of 'em have ever brought a drill to a fight!''

200
201	-> '''Voiced by:''' YayoiJinguji
202	-> '''First appearance:''' ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}: The Night Warriors''
203
204	-> The daughter of Belial Aensland, she was born with power that rivaled S class high nobles. Fearing that that Morrigan would lose control of that power, Belial split her soul in half, taking part of her power. She spent her days as a Rebellious Princess and generally being the combat-crazy version of Paris Hilton.
205
206	* AssistCharacter: She's assisted by Lilith in her Darkness Illusion Level 3 Super.
207	* AwesomeButImpractical: Her Level 1 Hypers are not as good in this game, especially her Finishing Shower. Neither can be comboed into, but if they somehow land they deal as much damage as a Level 3 Hyper.
208	* BattleAura: Most likely to show the results of her FusionDance [[SplitPersonalityMerge with Lilith]].
209	* BaitAndSwitch: In her ''Ultimate All-Stars'' ending, at first it looks like she’s having sex with a young boy, complete with some obvious double entendres... but then it’s revealed they were playing at an arcade and Morrigan was just trying to distract him. She still lost, amusingly enough.
210	* BootstrappedTheme: The Scotland stage theme from the first ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}''.
211	%%* CapeWings
212	%%* CombatStilettos
213	* CorruptTheCutie: Her win quote against Yatterman-2
214	--> ''"Such a pure and innocent child... Would you like a little taste of the dark side? Just one little scratch and you'll be in a world of pleasure."''
215	* DarkIsNotEvil: She is a [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubus]], but sits firmly in heroic territory.
216	* DoubleEntendre: The All-Time champion on her home series, also brought here:
217	--> (when winning against Casshan) ''"I wouldn't move if I were you. It's so difficult trying to find the balance between pleasure and pain."''
218	--> (when winning against Frank West) ''"Why use a lens to take me in? Come over here and I'll show you something that you could never hope to capture on film."''
219	--> (when winning against Gold Lightan) ''"I find the discrepancy between your physical size and your ambitions to be so disappointing."''
220	--> (when winning against Karas) ''"What? You don't want me to see what's inside that armor? That just makes me want to try harder."''
221	--> (when winning against PTX-40A, referring to it's pilot) ''"How can you sleep in an iron cage like that? My body would do a better job of keeping you warm."''
222	--> (when winning against Yatterman-1) ''"If you're done playing hero now, maybe I can show you how to really have a good time."''
223	* GamerChick: As seen in both of her endings. As if she hadn't hit enough kinks already...
224	* GratuitousEnglish: Listen to her audio for Soul Fist and Shadow Blade.
225	* IDontKnowMortalKombat: After entering the RealWorld from a dimensional rift, she tries and fails to beat a kid in playing the game in which she herself is a playable character.
226	* MrsRobinson: PlayedWith in her American ending where at first it looks like she’s having sex with boy '''MUCH''' younger than her but then it turns out they were just playing a videogame.
227	%%* MacrossMissileMassacre: Her Finishing Shower Level 1 super.
228	%%* MsFanservice

232	--> '''Joe The Condor:''' ''Sorry, Miss, but I don't believe in the occult. I'm not a fan of anything you can't shoot with a real gun.''
233	--> '''Ken The Eagle:''' ''Your flirtations will not work on highly trained warriors like us, temptress! You will not hinder us on our mission!''
234	--> '''Mega Man Volnutt:''' ''P-Please! Stop messing with me, OK?!''
235	--> '''PTX-40A:''' ''I detect multiple life form readings inside you. Whoever you are, you aren't human.''

237	--> '''Tekkaman Blade:''' ''I'll admit, you are very attractive... But so what?''
238	--> '''Viewtiful Joe:''' ''Sorry lady, but I've got too many older, bat-guano crazy women in my life as it is!''

241	%%* PowerFloats
242	%%* SexyBacklessOutfit: Obscured by the wings, but yes.
243	%%* ShapeshifterWeapon: Her wings.
244	* {{Shotoclone}}: And quite balanced as one too, with her being able to zone and rushdown thanks to her instant overhead-setup dash. However, her damage output isn't as good.
245	* {{Stripperific}}: She's technically ''[[{{Vaporwear}} not wearing clothes]]''.
246	* ThisIsADrill: One of her supers transforms her legs into a flying drill.
247	* WelcomeToTheRealWorld: Her ending in ''Ultimate All-Stars''. She travels through one of the dimensional rifts in search of a good time... and ends up outside the game. This culminates in her defeat in the actual game at the hands of the young boy named Manabu who is NotDistractedByTheSexy. In her ending we can even appreciate [[Anime/{{Yatterman}} Gan-chan and Ai-chan]] walking in front of the local, looking very surprised at Morrigan's reaction. (Or [[MsFanservice attire]])

263	* {{BFS}}: Normal sized in relation to a HumongousMecha, but it can use its energy blades as a Super.
264	* BadassBoast: The pilot delivers some towards most of the cast during the results screen:
265	--> '''vs. Ippatsuman''': You have no chance of snatching a victory from the jaws of defeat. Lay down your weapons and surrender!
266	--> '''vs. Zero''': I've already calculated every move you could possibly make. The only thing you can do is surrender immediately.
267	--> '''vs. Yatterman-1''': You're such an easy target with all those crazy clothes. You're just begging to get shot.
268	--> '''vs. Yatterman-2''': That little toy of yours couldn't even tickle Ivan here.

271	--> '''vs. Lightan''': You sure can take a hit, and you take a lot of them because there's so much of you to hit.
272	--> '''vs. [[MirrorMatch PTX-40A]]''': We have the same machine, but I think we both know which of us is the better pilot!
273	* BootstrappedTheme: Its theme is a remix of the main theme of ''Lost Planet''.
274	%%* ChainsawGood: One of its specials. Also, one of its Level 1 (Tactical Calibur) Supers.
275	%%* DoABarrelRoll: Its crouching fierce.
276	* FlashOfPain: Because it doesn't flinch when damaged (as compensation for fighting alone), it needs confirmation that the hits are landing, which is more obvious than just its health bar.
277	%%* GatlingGood
278	%%* HumongousMecha
279	* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In the opening video, The Pilot says
280	--> "This is a perfectly balanced VS."
281	** While what it is supposed to refer to is the Giant mech, or the "VS Suit," in context it also could be taken to complement the game's balance.
282	--> '''Joe The Condor:''' ''Your firepower and mobility is most impressive. ...I wonder what Dr. Nambu would make of it.''
283	%%* HyperspaceArsenal
284	* ICallItVera: One of the pilot's win quotes evidently calls the VS [[MeaningfulName "Ivan"]]. The announcer at the character select screen also refers to it as such.
285	* MoreDakka: Its "Arsenal Barrage" super revolves around this.
286	* OneManParty: It can't be paired with anyone due to its own power.
287	* OneWingedAngel: Transforms into the LP-9999 for his Level 3, slashing the enemy repeatedly before finishing with a DiagonalCut.
288	* PoweredArmor: Though after several hits they would get dizzy.
289	%%* RealRobot
290	* RunningGag: Many of the characters mistake it for a sentient robot.
291	* ToastedBuns: Many of its normal attacks involve roasting his opponents with his thruster-fire.
292	* TransformingMecha: Changes in its Level 3 Super for a devastating attack.
293	* TheVoiceless: It only makes robotic noises. It has, however, a nameless pilot from NEVEC who is seen in the ending and says the victory quotes.
294	* WeaponizedExhaust: Its various normal moves involve using its thrusters to burn the enemy or to act as a quick escape. It's also one of its bread and butter moves.
295	* WritingAroundTrademarks: The PTX's ending strongly suggests that the mech's nameless, faceless pilot is indeed Wayne Holden, ''Lost Planet's'' protagonist. He's just being unidentified to keep from having to pay royalties to Creator/LeeByungHun, who provided his likeness to Wayne.

305
306	-> The third humanoid robot built by Light Labs, and a "sister unit" of sorts to Mega Man and Proto Man.
307
308	* AdaptationalBadass: Somewhat, though she sometimes isn't even present enough to tell either way. Knocking much larger opponents off their feet and repeatedly ramming them [[GroinAttack in the groin]] with a mop is pretty hardcore.
309	* AmericanKirbyIsHardcore: [[http://tatsunoko.vscapcom.com/cha_roll.html# She]] does look hardcore in her ''Ultimate All-Stars'' art compared to their ''Cross Generation of Heroes''.
310	* BootstrappedTheme: "Kaze Yo Tsutaete". Like the main theme of the game, it has two versions.

313	* CuteBruiser
314	-->'''Kaijin No Soki:''' ''Ah... If only Jubei had your poise and charm.''
315	* DevelopmentGag: Her ending contains a far obscure one. [[spoiler:In it, she awakes both [[VideoGame/StarGladiator Vector]] and [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Huitzil]]. Huitzil's original design was that of a housekeeper robot]].
316	* DialogueTree: She will mention that Volnutt reminds her of [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic her brother]] before the fight and calls VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe a "Quickman cosplayer". In turn, Zero comments on what robotic model Roll is, as well as calling her a housekeeping reploid, and VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe will comment on Roll being a cute girl, after defeating her.
317	* FlyingBroomstick: Used in her dash, and in her appearance in the MiniGameCredits.
318	%%* GlacierWaif
319	* GlassCannon: If you make her sweep her own puddle, she binks, giving her a permanent damage buff for ALL of her attacks. You can sweep up to five puddles, wherein she's about as strong as Tekkaman. [[ButWaitTheresMore And that's not all]]: you can gain the maximum buff of five puddles while sweeping only one puddle if you use her Sweep Turbo super move! On top of that, one of her specials serves the purpose of granting a damage buff to her next special. So.. Yeah. ''Really'' damaging if you play her right (and she can even deal decent damage without her buffs as well). Can't take much punishment, though, as her health is just above Karas' by one tier.
320	* HealThyself: One of Roll's hypers allows her to heal some of her health back.
321	* HitboxDissonance: Her small size makes her a hard target to hit. And with the addition of her broom, a weapon with good reach, this was '''furthered'''.
322	* ImageSong: "Kaze Yo Tsutaete", christened to "When The Wind Blows" in ''UAS''.
323	* ImprobableWeaponUser: Because Capcom wanted the character to be true to her origins, she fights as a house-keeping robot, so she attacks enemies with her broom and bucket of water. Some characters praises her because of that:
324	--> '''Alex:''' ''...This girl is like a hardware shop and an armory all rolled into one!''
325	--> '''Frank West:''' ''Ah, the simple mop. Not a bad weapon. It will take out your basic zombie. Good durability. You could do worse.''
326	--> '''Tekkaman:''' ''When one masters a weapon, a person's potential increases accordingly. That being said, that broom is deadly in your hands.''
327	* {{Irony}}: Roll's storyline emphasizes the fact that Roll was not built for combat. Yet she's totally able to put giant robots, superheroes, monsters, street fighters or [[spoiler:the lord of darkness himself]] in their place. Plus, she has made the most appearances in the ''VideoGame/CapcomVs'' series than any other character from the entire franchise.
328	--> (when winning against Frank West) ''"You say I need to fight more and clean less so you can take a good picture... Sorry, but cleaning is what I do best!"''
329
330	--> '''Chun-Li:''' ''One of the rules of fighting is to never underestimate your opponent. I should have remembered that...''
331	* LethalJokeCharacter: She has a disjointed hitbox, a Level 1 [[HealThyself healing]] hyper move, and very damaging attacks. Unlike some examples, she's not this by mistake, that's for sure.
332	%%* LittleMissBadass
333	* MiniGameCredits: The same game where Doronjo and her henchmen are featured can be played with Roll if the player finishes the game with her. The same rules apply.
334	%%* RobotGirl
335	* RumpRoast: The first half of her Level 3 combo has her sweeping so hard that it causes a fire in front of her, which lights the rival's backside on fire. The second half of it is Roll trying to put it out with a ''huge'' bucket that causes [[GiantWallofWateryDoom a tidal wave]].

458	** When fighting under-aged girls like Roll and Saki:
459	---> ''"Um, a kid like you could get hurt playing around here!"''
460	** And then, there's his winning quote against Jun The Swan.
461	---> ''"Jun, give me the camera back! I told you I deleted the pictures of your underwear!"''
462	* CoolHelmet: The Servbot helmet he uses in his Level 3 against everyone not named [[HumongousMecha Gold Lightan or PTX-40A]].
463	* DeathFromAbove: When facing the large robots, his Level 3 is changed. A zombie falls from the sky to where [[HumongousMecha PTX-40A or Gold Lightan]] is standing. Should it connect, more zombies will body slam the large mecha, giving time to Frank to set up oxygen tanks around the robot and shoot them for a large explosion.
464	** Also his Knee Drop command normal from his home game.
465	* EnemyMine: He's "aided" by zombies in battle. Although they will damage anyone that touches them, including Frank himself. They can be used in conjunction with some of his moves - Frank can hit them with his Grad Slam as a projectile, and the same can be said with his Giant Swing with the added benefit of damaging nearby enemies.
466	* FightingClown: He's completely out of place in this game (that's probably the intention). He has deadly moves such as cosplaying as Mega Man, and zombies in shopping carts. That said, Frank can easily lock his opponents down with random zombies for space control and when possible, can lay out a lot of damage.
467	--> '''Viewtiful Joe:''' ''You... A hero...? I don't think you really belong here, do you?''
468	* HomeRunHitter: Can even deflect projectiles with his bat if timed right.

471	--> ''"So that's the "world's strongest ''lance''," huh? Big deal, I'm free''lance'' pal! Ha ha ha! ... [[DontExplainTheJoke Get it?]]"''
472	* InkSuitActor: Strangely, his in-gameplay likeness appears to be a dead-ringer for Creator/NicolasCage of all people, and looks nothing like his artwork or his original ''Dead Rising'' design.
473	* MegatonPunch: He uses his opponent's head to punch through a horde of zombies in his Level 3 Hyper Combo. ("THAT'S HILARIOUS!")
474	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: He is drawn far more realistically than everyone else. The rest of the game is drawn in an anime style. Even so, the Frank West of this game is far more cartoony than his home series.
475	* RuleOfFunny: A zombie in a shopping cart. It can even hit OTG and wallbounce for good measure.
476	* SecretCharacter: In Ultimate All-Stars. To unlock him you must get 3 different Capcom characters' Arcade endings.

478	* StuffBlowingUp: He can perform a unique Level 3 Hyper Combo against the giant characters in which he distracts them with some zombies, [[{{Hammerspace}} plants a massive amount of gas canisters]] around them before blowing them up from a distance with a shotgun, a la ''Film/{{Jaws}}''.
479	* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: His fighting style (with zombies as [[AssistCharacter helpers]]) has been compared to [[Franchise/ResidentEvil Jill]]'s in ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom2''.
480	* TitleDrop:
481	** His Level 1 grab Hyper is called "Dead Rising". He even shouts it when doing it.
482	** He does another when asked for the title of a picture he took with the Tatsunoko heroes in his ending. His answer is to name it the Ultimate All-Stars.
483	* VocalDissonance: The voice actor in this game sounds very different from Terence J. Rotolo's original portrayal that defined Frank's character. He sounds much more nasally and comical in this game, which doesn't quite fit with his image as a burly, rough-around-the-edges journalist/zombie slayer.
484	* WaveMotionGun: His Real Mega Buster. How the hell he can fire a genuine laser beam with a toy Mega Buster is anyone's guess.

511	* DeathFromAbove: His Rekkouha (Rending Light Rule) super summons several blasts from above.
512	* DifficultButAwesome: A majority of his combos require some tough execution, especially due to needing to stick his Hyper Zero Blaster (albeit charged) in combos through some quick fingers and button bypasses. Most players can get some simple bread and butters down, but it takes quite a few long and skillful combos to dish out most of his damage.
513	** That said, his Level 1 Hyper Combos aren't too practical in the open either.
514	* DivingKick: His Sentsuizan (Spinning Crash Slash). [[ArtifactTitle Even if it doesn't actually involve spinning]] like in ''X6'', its game of origin.
515	* DoppelgangerAttack: His Sougenmu (Twin Phantasm), but this only works for his damageable specials and his copy has a shade of blue.
516	* FragileSpeedster: He has an easily spammeable dash attack (his "Shippuuga"; lit. Hurricane Fang) and overall decent mobility (being the only character in the game that legit sprints/runs forward as opposed to short-dashing); durability is his only lacking field in terms of defining his actual defense.
517	--> '''Frank West:''' ''You're one fast robot! I could barely keep you in frame, even with my high-speed lens.''
518	* GlassCannon: Expert players can whip out positively mammoth strings of heavy damage that doesn't work well as one-shot damage, but can come in the form of fairly low-scaled and consistent damage per hit (on top of also having some solid blockstring pressure and Hienkyaku cross-ups). However, he can't exactly take a hit either. There's a reason he's been christened as a spiritual successor to Akuma/Gouki.[[note]]They both would even share the same health total in the vanilla version of ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', funny enough.[[/note]] However, his HP actually only the second lowest along with Roll's in the game; even then in his home series, he didn't have any other armor upgrades available.

541	%%* BigBad
542	* BlowYouAway: His third form can stir up a tornado with a flick of his fingers.
543	%%* CollisionDamage: One of his supers. The whole combo does 58 hits!!!
544	* DarkIsEvil: His name literally means "darkness". In his game, he is the source of all evil plaguing Japan. In this one, he proceeds to screw reality itself.
545	* EldritchAbomination: The three forms he assumes in this game are alien by themselves, but his true nature is even more bizarre: [[spoiler:Yami's true appearance is a small fetus-like creature hidden inside the robot]].
546	* FlashOfPain: Because he doesn't flinch when damaged, he needs confirmation that the hits are landing which are more obvious than just his health bar.
547	* GiantHandsOfDoom: His third form. His grab is extremely damaging.
548	* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere:
549	** In ''[=CGoH=]''. Sure, it's an arcade mode, but did ''anyone'' expect him to appear? And after you defeat him, as the ending shows up, a completely different event is happening, with the characters [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment not mentioning the battle ever]]. You'd think defeating ''the lord of darkness'' would be something to talk about. Some characters do point out that they defeated a monster like VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe and [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic Roll]]. But having him in the game itself is surprising, despite being "teased" in the ''Cross Generations of Heroes'' opening (he shows up right after the logo fades from the opening movie).
550	** Totally averted in ''[=UAS=]'', since most of the endings refer to [=him=] as the manipulator of reality.
551	%%* GroundPound: One of his third form's specials.
552	%%* MechanicalLifeforms
553	%%* OneWingedAngel
554	* PlayingWithFire: His third form super uses a [[EnergyWeapon Frickin' Laser Beam]] engulfed in fire.
555	%%* PoweredArmor
556	* PowerGlows: Each time he activates a super, he glows in red and black.
557	* SequentialBoss: He is fought in three separate phases, first as a sphere that can unfold into chainsaws, missiles and hammers, then a giant mecha with lightning bolts for limbs, and finally as a demonic hand.
558	* ShockAndAwe: His second form fights with whips made of electricity. Also, one of his third form's specials involves him throwing a huge EnergyBall composed of electricity.
559	* SNKBoss: His third form is particularly hard, primarily because it has a grab move with a damage rivaling a level 3 hyper combo! That being said, long-range specialists work wonderfully against it - it's close-up fighters like Polymar who really feel the heat.[[note]] or the giant characters for that matter[[/note]]
560	* ThemeMusicPowerUp: When you face his last form in the final battle, "The Sun Rises" starts playing.
561	* TransformingMecha: After you defeat one of his forms, he'll change to the next one.
562	%%* TronLines
563	* VictoryFakeout: Like [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom2 Abyss]] before him, he does this twice after beating his first two forms. The only difference is that there is a loading screen between forms and the fact that your health is restored.
564	* TheVoiceless: Much like in his series, he doesn't at all, but can roar in anger.
