Cocua

A standoffish punk with a cold demeanor, Cocua Vanilyan was once set to lead the Vanilyan crime syndicate, but took a stand against her father out of a strong sense of justice; with her unforgiving fighting style and the power of her elemental plasma gauntlets, Cocua now seeks to forge her own path and protect her new-found family, no matter how great the cost.

Cocua is an aggressive, quick on her feet character that can weave in and out thanks to her excellent horizontal mobility and strong advantage.
Using her Elemental Plasma Gauntlets, she can control the pace of a game and, if necessary, break her own limits to enhance her attacks, trading percentage for power.
How much are you willing to push your limits in order to claim victory?
She also has a home-stage, the Han-Sen Workshop!


Cocua can charge her Strongs for additional time -- up to three times -- to increase their damage, range and speed, gaining Plasma Charges in the process.

Pressing Parry while charging a Strong will cancel it, letting you pocket a Plasma Charge.
Plasma Charges increase the power, range and speed of your Strongs, and unlock new options for each Special move based on your level. This, however, comes at the cost of taking residual damage for each Charge you have.


Cocua attempts to grab the opponent with an uppercut swing! Though relatively quick, its short-range makes it a risky move to go for.
If successful, Cocua will chokehold and throw her opponent onto the opposite side on the ground, siphoning energy from the target to slam them down. It forces your opponent into a mix-up and can lead into more comboes with good timing! It also grants you one Plasma Charge, giving you a more offensive way of accumulating them.
When you have at least one Plasma Charge, you can hold down Special to unleash a powerful explosion. Its strength will scale with your Plasma Charges, but it will also exhaust your Charge supply, so use this version when you know it'll lead to a kill!


Cocua winds back her elbow, then takes off for a brutal shoulder charge! This move can be jump-cancelled on hit with good timing.
With at least two Plasma Charges, it can be jump-cancelled when you're in the air, giving you incredible horizontal speed.
Finally, with three Plasma Charges, it charges twice as fast, letting you catch your opponent off-guard with a sudden burst option!


Cocua takes off with a fast-spinning double jump. By itself, this move deals no damage and has a noticeable amount of landing lag, making you particularly vulnerable when recovering.
With at least two Plasma Charges, this move both will no longer put you into pratfall, and you can cancel it into aerial attacks, giving you more options while recovering.
With three Plasma Charges, this move will travel even further vertically, giving you both a much better recovery and an explosive vertical option while on-stage!


Cocua quickly assumes a defensive stance. During this stance, you can press left or right to quickly teleport, granting a few frames of invulnerability at the cost of being a laggy option. You can also cancel this move into any other attack, or press Parry to wind down from it.
This move really comes into its own when you have Plasma Charges, which gives you new directional options when using either Attack or Special:

^ : A short-ranged knee strike with limited range, but excellent kill power!
<- or ->: Cocua teleports up and does a rapidly travelling dive-kick with great knockback!
v : Cocua teleports up, then slams back down to the ground with a fist strike. The only move in her kit that can spike!
Neutral Input: Performs NSpecial.
The starting frames for these moves share the same limited invulnerability as the left/right teleports. Try to mix up your opponent by suddenly going into one of these options from teleporting!


Cocua dashes forward and grabs the first person she comes into contact with. Mercilessly, she drags them up into the air towards the middle of the stage, and slams them back onto the ground several times! It's a real "Me when I find you" kind of move.

-DAir is a quick downwards stomp. Rather than spiking, it will bounce both Cocua and the enemy upwards, allowing for follow-ups into any of your aerials or even Specials with good timing!
-You can't Cocua-cide with NSpecial's grab. It will still drag anyone you grab in the air straight down however, and it does stop right near the blastzone when you're off stage. If you're really bold, you can try to go for a follow-up right near the blastzone!
-The characters name is pronounced "Cuh-coh-uh", like you were saying "Cocoa" literally!

Also big shoutouts to my homies who have both inspired me to bring this character back and finally make an OC of my own for this game! I never thought I'd get this far with modding this game, but I'm glad I have <3
