Added DiffLines:

* BattleIntro: Each fighter will have an intro animation before the fight starts, usually with some sort of throwback to the character's original series. For example, the Animorphs will fly onto the stage, each using their signature flight morphs, and a platform will raise Katniss and Peeta onto the stage from underground.


Added DiffLines:

* VictoryQuote: And not just for the end of the match either! Characters will also quip one-liners every time they score a KO during the match. While all characters will have a few generic ones, each character will also have some character specific lines. A few examples:
-->Rachel(after [=KOing=] David): Me and [[SixthRangerTraitor guys named David]] don't get along too well.
-->Amy (after [=KOing=] Harry): H...''[[{{Fangirl}} Harry Potter!?]]''
-->Marco (after [=KOing=] Rachel): What's wrong? Having an off-day, [[Series/XenaWarriorPrincess Xena?]]
-->Cassie (after [=KOing=] Slappy): [[YouKnowImBlackRight That's for calling me a slave!]]
-->Harry (after [=KOing=] George & Harold): I heard about the 'Hairy Potty' thing. I'm not amused.

When fighters get attacked, they drop small orbs.  Collecting these orbs will fill up a meter that, once it's filled up, will allow the character to perform their ultimate attack called a Spellbinding Climax.  (Just like in VideoGame/CartoonNetworkPunchTimeExplosion)

In addition, the game will also have [[AssistCharacter Assist Characters]] that you can equip to your playable fighter.  However, you can only have two equipped at a time.  During gameplay, your two assists are always displayed on the bottom screen, one on each side of the screen.  When activated, assists will momentarily appear in front of your character and (depending on the assist) will either do an attack, heal you, or help you out in some other way, before disappearing.  Only one assist can be activated at a time, and when an assist is used, that assist can't be used again until its "cool-down period" ends, which is indicated by the "Wait Bars" on display below each Assist on the bottom screen. Using Assists can be risky, though.  If your Assist is hit by an attack while it is out, you will be "Assist Blocked" and you won't be able to use that Assist for awhile.

* ImprobableWeaponUser: Quite of a few of them. And it's not even a complete list.
** As mentioned above, Lizzy's attacks utilize various objects or monsters from throughout the Goosebumps series (Monster Blood, the Evil Camera, the Shrunken Head, etc.)
** Scipio can attack opponents with bells and bags of "loot".
** Some of Kristy's moves use objects such as a thermometer, a rag doll, and a flashlight. She can even attack you by ''giving you'' '''''[[DeathGlare The Look!]]'''''
** One of Job's special moves is spraying his opponents in the face with shaving cream.
** Mem fights using objects such as a feather pin, a bucket, a rake, scorched peas, and more. Basically, anything Mem used during ''A Journey to the New World'' is fair game for her moveset.
** Of course, Sandry's primary method of attack is using her magic to control ''[[HeartIsAnAwesomePower thread.]]''
** Slappy has a hedge clippers special move.

* CarFu: Ron summons the Flying Ford Anglia to fly into opponents for his Spellbinding Climax. Also, Ms. Frizzle's entire moveset.



* KamehameHadoken: Harry's Spellbinding Climax is firing an Expelliarmus in this fashion. Of course, it also causes opponents to drop any item that they're carrying.



* IKnowMaddenKombat: Kristy uses her baseball skills for a fair amount of her moves. Also, Ron can smack down airborne opponents and knockback projectiles, referencing his skills as a Keeper.

In addition, the game will also have {{AssistCharacter}}s that you can equip to your playable fighter.  However, you can only have two equipped at a time.  During gameplay, your two assists are always displayed on the bottom screen, one on each side of the screen.  When activated, assists will momentarily appear in front of your character and (depending on the assist) will either do an attack, heal you, or help you out in some other way, before disappearing.  Only one assist can be activated at a time, and when an assist is used, that assist can't be used again until its "cool-down period" ends, which is indicated by the "Wait Bars" on display below each Assist on the bottom screen. Using Assists can be risky, though.  If your Assist is hit by an attack while it is out, you will be "Assist Blocked" and you won't be able to use that Assist for awhile.

''Scholastic Books: Spellbinding Battles'' is a Nintendo3DS video game that only exists in Troper/{{Nexus}}' head. It's a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover PlatformFighter using characters from various children's books published by Scholastic.[[note]] When this troper first came up with this idea, he wasn't aware that some of these book series' have different publishers in different countries. This troper is American, so the game's representation consist of book series' published by Scholastic's U.S. branch.[[/note]]

Plays similarly to VideoGame/SuperSmashBros in the sense that up to four players fight on multi-tiered battlefields on a 2-D plane, along with items that periodically drop and stage hazards. Unlike SSB, however, players are defeated by having their Hit Points depleted rather than getting knocked off the stage.

When fighters get attacked, they drop small orbs.  Collecting these orbs will fill up a meter that, once it's filled up, will allow the character to perform their ultimate attack called a Spellbinding Climax.  (Just like in VideoGame/CartoonNetworkPunchTimeExplosion)

In addition, the game will also have {{AssistCharacter}}s that you can equip to your playable fighter.  However, you can only have two equipped at a time.  During gameplay, your two assists are always displayed on the bottom screen, one on each side of the screen.  When activated, assists will momentarily appear in front of your character and (depending on the assist) will either do an attack, heal you, or help you out in some other way, before disappearing.  Only one assist can be activated at a time, and when an assist is used, that assist can't be used again until its "cool-down period" ends, which is indicated by the "Wait Bars" on display below each Assist on the bottom screen. Using Assists can be risky, though.  If your Assist is hit by an attack while it is out, you will be "Assist Blocked" and you won't be able to use that Assist for awhile.

Certain items can also be collected and equipped before a match, though you can only equip a max of four items at a time and once you use an item, it's used up for the match.

Game modes include Versus Mode (both local and online), Arcade Mode, Story Mode, Practice Mode, Options Menu, and Chronicles (similar to SSB's Masterpieces, this will let you read sample chapters of the books the characters originated from.)

----
!!This game provides examples of:

* CompositeCharacter: All of Lizzy's attacks utilize various objects or monsters from throughout the Goosebumps series (Monster Blood, the Evil Camera, the Shrunken Head, etc.), making her more of a stand-in for Goosebumps main characters in general.
* FightingClown: Captain Underpants and George&Harold are obvious choices for this.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: At least one character's ''name'' counts as this because it spoils a major twist in the first book of that character's series.
* PowerCreepPowerSeep: Obvious when characters like Kristy and Mem can stand on even grounds wizards, superheroes, and the like.
* {{Shotoclone}}: Harry Potter. Yes, really.
* UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny: Where else will you find Katniss fighting Voldemort?
* TheUnexpected: A few characters.
** Kristy Thomas, due to being from a non-SpeculativeFiction SliceOfLife series and having no canon fighting ability whatsoever.
** Mem, for mostly the same reasons as Kristy.
** While having Goosebumps monsters like Slappy and The Haunted Mask on the roster isn't surprising, having Lizzy Morris, one of the ''protagonists'' from Goosebumps, on the roster IS a little surprising.
** Ms. Frizzle, ''ESPECIALLY'' since she fights WITH the bus.
**[[spoiler: Count Morbida, due to being from a magazine that was mostly popular way back in the 70s and 80s.]]
