(OLD) Golem, the Megaton Pokemon

Description
(NOTE: VER-TYX IS THE CREATOR OF THIS MOD. THIS ACCOUNT IS ONLY USED TO UPLOAD THE MOD)
(NO-NOTE: There is a higher quality version available. If you still prefer this one, good, but if you wanna try the new version go check my account.)

After nth time in development, I decided to "release" my first mod ever: Golem, the Megaton Pokemon, and my favorite one.

Golem is a superheavy character that puts all of the focus on comboes, as odd as that may sound. You can, and WILL, punish your opponent's mistakes with powerful comboes, 50/50, setups and all that crazy stuff.
Of course, this comes at a price: Golem is very, very slow, just like in Pokemon. While he has a projectile to help him fight approaches and put pressure and big hitboxes, Golem's low speed will often make you struggle greatly at approaching yourself and will force you to stand your ground when you're face to face with the enemy.
Not only that, but the weight, while granting extra-survival, will make you combo food at lower percents.

His main and only gimmick is Sturdy, straight from the source material: while Golem is at 0%, he will gain Super Armor, easily taking any hit and winning clashes, but easy to outmanoeuver if using projectiles and multihits. This effectively makes Golem even better at dealing with rushdown playstyles and punishing mistakes, while also making you struggle with zoning.

This is my first mod, and also my first experiment at coding ever, and considering my complete lack of experience I'd say I did a pretty good job, but such an opinion cannot be held for long if I can't get any feedback. I hope you can have the same fun playing this character that I did making it.

Thanks :)

I tried to fight Golem with the Boss Buddy, with Golem as the boss, and the juggernaut mode activated... I regret it.

4 Coffee: It was written in the character tips. USpecial is cancelable to FSpecial, so you're supposed to first use USpecial and then mash FSpecial.

Fill di che parli? Per Bernard intendi Sandbert? Veh che il taunt io l'ho messo, magari ri-verifico ma a me non da il problema.
Magari prova a riscaricarlo.

For Ninja: Yeah DSpecial isn't really meant to last that long, but nobody complained so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
