History Characters / ARMS

* FiftiesHair: His [[DelinquentHair cobalt blue]] [[SpringCoil spring-like hair]] does give him a meaning. Although he isn't a deliquent himself, his hair seems to be a reminiscent of a typical pompadour worn by JapaneseDelinquents.

* StuffBlowingUp: His Triblast ARMS have the Explosion element.

* CombiningMecha: When they hit their LimitBreak, they combine into one robot. They actually abused this feature to get into the ARMS Grand Prix in the first place by signing up while combined.
* ClockworkCreature: Were introduced as the "Clockwork Cops" and have visible {{Windup Key}}s.

* ConfusionFu: One of the key aspects to Lola's fighting style is her unpredictability; having plenty of unusual movement patterns and a selection of ARMS that have all sorts of wacky effects to keep opponents guessing.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: After many years as a Street Performer and dreaming of starting one, she uses the money and press from winning the Grand Prix to open up the circus of her dreams.

* TemporaryBulkChange: Her main ability is puffing up her whole body to block attacks.
* WeaponBasedCharacterization: Her unpredictable and wacky fighting style perfectly fit her signature nunchuck weapons.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Max's Brass critical permacharge means that his two signature Explosion-type ARMS make him a bigger target. Fortunately, his buffed state means he takes half damage from it as well as not flinching.

* MultiArmedAndDangerous: She can gain a third ARM when charging left or right, and her "[[SNKBoss boss]]" version can gain ''two''. [[spoiler:Then Hedlok steals her body for the TrueFinalBoss if playing on Level 6 or 7.]]

* BadassInDistress: When you defeat him in the Grand Prix on level 4 or higher, [[TrueFinalBoss{{Hedlok}}]] comes in and possesses him. The only way to save him is by beating the metal monster off.

* DoubleJump: She can jump in the air four times.

* PerpetualFrowner: Always has either a determined scowl or an ambivalent grimace, even in her victory animations. The only few times we see her smiling is a nervous smile in one of her character arts where she's surrounded by younger fans, and a particularly big smile in another one after winning the Party Crash Bash. In another art, while the other girls seem excited at the presence of Lola Pop, she's scowling. However she's seen smiling in both her trailer and her official render for ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate''.

* FaceOfTheBand: [[invoked]] Barq appears to be this for the duo. Fans of them wear helmets like Barq's rather than hats like Byte's.

* TheHero: More or less the main character of the game, with a StockShonenHero personality to boot.

* DoubleMeaning: One of their win quotes has Byte call the team the "''long arms'' of the law".
** The Long Arm of the Law is also what they are referred to as in the German and Dutch versions of the game instead of the Clockwork Cops.

* NoWaterproofingInTheFuture: Their bio mentions one of their hobbies is avoiding salt water, and their weakest stat is "water resistance". You'd think they wouldn't have been assigned to ''beach'' patrol. Coyle's notes on the duo have her suggest she could give them waterproof bodies but she probably won't.
** [[https://twitter.com/ARMS_Cobutter/status/875911639324794882 This tweet shares with us the fact they will use umbrellas when it's raining.]]

* LittleMissBadass: [[TeensAreShort Lit]][[ShorterMeansSmarter tle]]? Check. Miss? Check. {{Badass|Normal}}? Check!

* TeensAreShort: Is fifteen and 5'1" when outside her suit.

* PeekABangs: Her thumbs down-shaped hair covers her right eye.

* AlienHair: Her hair may look like a blonde bob cut at first glance, but it's actually made of noodles!

* TrueFinalBoss: On levels 1-3 in Grand Prix, you beat Max and take home the title. Play on level 4 and higher, and Hedlok pulls an [[VideoGame/StreetFighter Akuma]], taking Max's [[spoiler: or Coyle's]] body and giving you one final [[SNKBoss super-challenging]] opponent. And what makes him so challenging? The fact that he is the only fight in the Grand Prix where there is no timer; it's KO or be KO'd.

* BlowYouAway: Her primary Funchucks have the wind element.

* BadassBaritone: If he has a chance to speak, it's a soft-spoken, deep, and raspy voice that drills other's spine. The way he also slowly says "Cobra..." at the end of his trailer [[EvilSoundsDeep does have a sinister element to it]]. [[{{Kayfabe}} Though, he probably isn't necessarily evil]].

* WhipItGood: Her Slapamander ARMS work as a whip.

* WhipItGood: His primary Slamamander ARMS acts a whip similar to Ribbon Girl's Slapamander, but with the [[BlowYouAway wind]] element.

* EvilKnockoff: Of Spring Man. It's not known if he's actually evil, but he is very aggressive and interrupts your Grand Prix challenges.

* SpreadShot: His tertiary Tribolt ARMS are a horizontal-type multi-shot weapon.

* NonElemental: His signature Megaton ARMS do not have any special attributes, unlike the other two starting ARMS available to him (Retorcher and Phoenix) which use [[PlayingWithFire fire]].
* PlayingWithFire: His secondary Retorcher and tertiary Phoenix are both fire-elemental.

* BadassNormal: She's the only member of the cast who lacks the Arms ability. She uses a robot as a substitute. Along with the artificial fighters Helix and Byte & Barq, she is classified as a "second generation" fighter.

* GeniusSweetTooth: Implied by Biff when she goes up against Lola Pop.

* InstantAwesomeJustAddMecha: Mechanica fights by piloting a MiniMecha.

* StuffBlowingUp: Her tertiary Homie ARMS have the Explosion element.

* PowerFist: Similar to Ninjara's Buffs, his tertiary Bubb ARMS are basic gloves with no element.

* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Mongoose?]]: It is implied on [[RobotAthlete Springtron's]] Grand Prix battle against Kid Cobra that the ladder is afraid of [[SnakeVersusMongoose mongoose]], which fits the [[AnimalMotifs King Cobra motif]] very well.

* ArtAttacker: One of Lola's default ARMS, the Biffler, [[InterfaceScrew covers the screen]] with stamps of Biff's face to temporarily hide her opponent's view.

* BadWithTheBone: His Skully ARMS effectively allows you to stab the opponent with a stripped-down, envenomed bird skull.

* CoveredInGunge: His Glushers are like Helix's Blorbs in that they're balls of liquid that spatter the target with slime. And given its Poison attribute, unlike what Biff says about the blue Blorbs, this purple slime ''is'' toxic.
* EquippableAlly: A currently unnamed creature floats beside him that can become a second MaskOfPower.

* MightyGlacier: The big guy has all of Spring Man's abilities and then adds in more of his own, but pays for it with noticable slower walkspeed and a much larger hitbox.

* AttackReflector: Downplayed with his mini-shockwaves.

* MegaTwintails: Large enough to be weaponized.

* PunnyName: Doubling as a MeaningfulName based on her MegaTwintails which she is able to use in battle instead of ARMS.

* MsFanservice: Curvaceous figure, alluring appeal, SexyWalk, a strong helping of MaleGaze, and being [[EveryoneLooksSexierIfFrench a French actress]] all add up to this trope.

* SexyWalk: Her walking animation has her [[ThirdPersonSeductress sensually swinging her hips]] [[https://i.imgur.com/GNvr6It.gif while putting her hands on them]], [[https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/256/164/d7c.gif with varying speeds]].

* TheChick: The female foil to TheHero, and the most feminine and spirited fighter as a cheerleader.

* WeaponOfChoice: Each fighter has three signature ARMS associated with them, though they are able to use the ARMS of fellow combatants if unlocked.

* FightingWithChucks: One of her default arms are called the Funchuks. They work by having her swinging around a large pair of nunchakus that can also stun opponents.

* FightingWithChucks: One of her default ARMS are ice type nunchuks.

A strange robotic fighter resembling Spring Man. He shows up to challenge you in Grand Prix if you're doing TOO well. Originally an NPC BonusBoss, he became playable with the fourth update. His unique trait is that charging his ARMS will release a energy pulse that disables any ARMS that comes in contact with it. Like Spring Man, he can also parry punches after charging but unlike Spring Man, he doesn't stay charged at low health.

* BonusBoss: Added in the 3.2 update to challenge the player right before Max Brass if they've had a perfect run so far.

* SNKBoss: As to be expected of a BonusBoss in a fighting game. He's slow and weak under normal circumstances but his signature ability is a shockwave that, in order, disables your arms, charges his arms, and makes him really fast. Good Luck.

* DarkSkinnedBlonde: Her hair is a platinum color.

* AllAmericanFace: His physical body closely evokes shades of Little Mac, a native New Yorker, his home stage of Spring Stadium is in what closely resembles a downtown of that very city, and his color scheme is red, white and blue.

->'''Voiced by:''' Ryouta Takeuchi

* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NW2W-kjwjjc A foreboding rock song with various vocal soundbytes (most prominently a metallic groan) that, unlike other songs in the game, does not remix the game's main theme.]] Elements of this song are mixed with Max Brass's theme to make [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhWlFEx3ETQ a new song for his battle in Grand Prix]], but the dark guitar riff and metallic groan do show up before the battle starts.
** When facing a Level 8 Hedlok after the 5.0.0 update, he gets [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUUds7A5rhM a more hard rock/metal remix of his original theme, which starts with Hedlok himself seemingly screaming in rage.]] [[spoiler:This theme is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqVNp95uJ0g mixed with Dr. Coyle's theme]] in the Level 6 or 7 Grand Prix final battle for the showdown with the two of them.]]

* NiceHat: Min Min wears one that resembles a ramen bowl.

* NiceHat: Byte wears a custodian helmet to show off his police nature.
