Torchic/YAMAKICHI's version

''Torchic, or "Achamo", as it is called in japanese, is one of Hoenn's three starters. All of them start off rather weak, and Torchic is no execption. That still doesn't mean that it can't rack up a few combos.''

Gameplay


Torchic is a 5 buttoned character, but the layout is quite unorthodox. , and  are are its Basic Attacks,  is used to call on its two strikers, and  is used exclusively in one of its Hypers.

Torchic isn't extremly combo heavy, but it is still able to rack up a few rather short combos. Torchic has two power costing strikers. Both cause low damage, possibly hinting at their use as combo extenders.

When it comes to power usage, Torchic is flawed. Its strikers cost as much as a level one Hyper, but do barely any damage. One of its level one Hypers also does almost the same amount of damage as its level two Hyper.

Torchic's A.I is moderate, as it will make do with its combos, but will use strikers quite often if it has power.
