SpongeBob SquarePants

SpongeBob SquarePants is the main protagonist and the eponymous character of the Nickelodeon animated comedy of the same name.

He was designed by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg, and is voiced by Tom Kenny. SpongeBob is a childish, eccentric sea sponge who lives in a pineapple in the underwater city of Bikini Bottom. He works as a fry cook at the Krusty Krab, a job which he is exceptionally skilled at. SpongeBob lacks a lot of knowledge and is a constant annoyance to those around him (especially Squidward Tentacles), but he is very good natured (or at least he tries to be). He appears in all of the episodes in the series. He is also a star of many YouTube Poops.

In M.U.G.E.N, there are many versions of SpongeBob. SpongeBob was first released by UchichaCody, then MugenJF took its sprites and replaced all the coding with someone else's creation's coding and called it "SpongeBob 2.0". Other people made their own sprites and made different versions of SpongeBob such as "Orochi SpongeBob".

UchihaCody's version


Perhaps the first SpongeBob character to be released for M.U.G.E.N, this character leaves a lot to be desired and has a very simple gameplay with very few moves. The sprites originate from various SpongeBob games on the GBA.

MUGENJF's 2.0 SpongeBob Edit


MUGENJF's edit of the original SpongeBob was a spriteswap, as only replacing the original sprites and using new ripped SpongeBob sprites like the original one, although his is not liked in M.U.G.E.N. Community. This SpongeBob is supposedly a spriteswap of Sayuri. Because of this, many considered this SpongeBob being low-quality. However, he does play better than all the other SpongeBob spriteswaps. An older version of this SpongeBob was supposedly a spriteswap of Metool.

FelixMario2011's SpongeBob


This SpongeBob (previously known as Kinoshita SpongeBob) was created by Placemario (now known as FelixMario2011), and was at some point the most known SpongeBob character, and the most widely used. A major flaw with its original A.I. programming allowed it to spam bazooka shots and lazer visors, with being seemingly overpowered. FelixMario2011 has since fixed this problem, giving it a much better A.I. in the process; this newer A.I. programming allows SpongeBob to rack up some heavy combos when controlled by the computer, making him a very challenging opponent, but there's an alternative version that has a different select portrait and a win portrait drawn by WlanmaniaX.

While not being a flaw as such, but rather a universal intolerance of the community, is that this character's base is the infamous SMvC EoH template created by the Infinity Mugen Team. The grammer used in the Winquotes are also deplorable.

Specials and hypers that have a * means it is only in the Kinoshita version of SpongeBob.

General

 * "hi!you!you Need to eat a Krabby Patty?"
 * "Gary?......wow!..had a good time"
 * "Do you want to catch jellyfish?"
 * "hey!You like a in TV in the characters.!"
 * "You no like a fish, such as another organism."
 * "i'm ready!i'm ready!i'm ready!i'm ready!"
 * "Oops!i am Ripped pants"
 * "i am ready for work"

Jedipolice's Edit


Jedipolice decided to release a new edit to FelixMario's SpongeBob. Although gameplay was no different, he added and edited sprites in his attacks and winposes. A major flaw though, was that now SpongeBob's palettes are not shared, making them not work.

General

 * "hi!you!you Need to eat a Krabby Patty?"
 * "Gary?......wow!..had a good time"
 * "Do you want to catch jellyfish?"
 * "hey!You like a in TV in the characters.!"

 * "Oops!i am Ripped pants"
 * "i am ready for work"

Infantry's Edit


This edit of FelixMario2011's SpongeBob may not seem different at first, but contains new specials and hypers against his foes, making him much more powerful, but there's an alternative version of this edit that has a different select portrait and a win portrait drawn by WlanmaniaX.

Specials
Note: These only contain the new specials and hypers.

Ivan Luiz's SpongeBob


Ivan Luiz made a SpongeBob, and he called it "SuperSpongeBob". It was basically an image of FelixMario2011's SpongeBob portrait. When it attacks, it switches into the Super Brawl portrait of him, like Ivan's older characters, he is a spriteswap of TheIranSonic's Poisonberry. You can only damage him in his Standing Animation, which makes him pretty impossible to kill. Overall, Ivan Luiz's version is often considered to be one of the worst SpongeBobs ever made.

Doug1105's version


With custom sprites and a familiar magenta outline, it's pretty obvious who made this character -- actually, it was one of his first. There's a noticeable hint of Marvel vs. Capcom in this character, but unlike many others, it doesn't use that infamous template.

Christian Taylor Nuñez Plúa's SpongeBob
This version of SpongeBob SquarePants uses sprites from SpongeBob Atlantis SquarePants for the Gameboy Advance, and is a spriteswap of Chansey.

Tanicfan22's SpongeBob


Tanicfan22/TF2 also made a SpongeBob once, but was clearly not viewed well to the M.U.G.E.N community, due to the creator and the character itself. Tanicfan22's SpongeBob is nothing than a Kung Fu Man spriteswap. He would have at least used Kung Fu Man as a base and give it original moves and fixing the clns, but Tanicfan22 stated he will not update this character anymore, leaving it the same as it is.

Mugenfan's SpongeBob


This SpongeBob uses sprites from SpongeBob SqaurePants: Lights, Camera, Pants! He is a spriteswap of Wanted|Ammo's SpongeBob. This character plays exactly like Wanted|Ammo's SpongeBob and has no original moves. His sprites were also clearly not edited much, as some sprites of the Wanted|Ammo's SpongeBob still remains.

Skulper34's SpongeBob


Another SpongeBob has been made by someone named Skulper34, AKA: The Doctor. His sprites come from Nicktoons: Freeze Frame Frenzy. This character is ridiculously small and hard to hit, making larger characters have a huge disadvantage. This SpongeBob has only one special and two hypers, making this character have a limited amount of choices for fighting. His A.I. is also easy, and lacks an appropriate lose pose.

Orochi SpongeBob


This version of SpongeBob uses the same sprites as Skulper34's version, and is a spriteswap of Orochi Ken, copying all of Ken's moves in the process. His creator is unknown since the name of Orochi Ken's was left behind. As far as his gameplay goes, he plays exactly like Orochi Ken and has no original moves. His AI is also cheap and his hypers are overpowered.

He turns into Orochi Ken in his lose pose, proving even further he is a spriteswap.

AngryNoahs' SpongeBob


AngryNoahs made a MvC Spongebob, though (like most MvC characters) uses the infamous EoH template, and as such, has the spammy A.I. that comes with it. Though the sprites are custom-made, they look pretty shoddy and rushed, much like the rest of the character. Its attacks are a single frame long and cannot be blocked, allowing for devastating combos and plenty of infinites, but also leaves itself wide open during its hypers, seeing as the hitstun is nowhere near as long as the attack itself. Its "Jump Hard Punch" can KO the average opponent in two hits, as just one hit deals about 551 damage.

All of its specials deal the same amount of damage, regardless of whether it's a light, medium, or heavy variant, and they all appear to be rather jumbled up, seeing as "Special 2" is activated by all the quarter-circle backwards motions, as well as the b and c quarter-circle forward motions (which should be "Special 3"), even though the a, b and c quarter-circle backwards motions are supposed to activate "Special 4", which (according to the character's animations) should be some form of attack involving a tall Krabby Patty that's 0 ticks long. Unlike its basic attacks, the hypers and specials can be blocked.

AngryNoahs' Spongebob V3


This version of SpongeBob doesn't use the infamous EoH template. It instead uses N64Mario's Template. It uses sprites from Legend of the Lost Spatula. It has 2 specials, 2 hypers, a Power Charge, and a Dash Attack, according to AngryNoahs himself. However, this said Dash attack can be spammed infinitely, making it somewhat cheap when played as. This version of SpongeBob is also voiceless. It also has missing sprites, causing debug errors. This character is somewhat better than AngryNoahs' other version of SpongeBob, but is mediocre overall.

Unknown Creator's Robot Chicken SpongeBob
Main Article: Robot Chicken Spongebob



This version comes from a Skit from Robot Chicken about SpongeBob finding out that Krabby Patties are made out of real crabs. It was made by Unknown Creator. It is a spriteswap of Fluttershy.

Schzmo's SpongeBoob CraPants


This version of Spongebob is a punching bag with sprites miscolored from Ivan Luiz's Spongebob. It is of poor quality, and can actually move, unlike other punching bags. Strangely, it also seems to have Haruhi Suzumiya's icon. It is a spriteswap of Mugenfan's Iran Soto.

ABSOLUTE-Yveltal's Dark Spongebob


ABSOLUTE-Yveltal edited FelixMario2011's Spongebob into a dark edit much like Dark Donald or Dark Sanders, it has the direct traits of a "dark" edit such as regeneration, faster attacks, regening power and the infamous 12th palette mode (start +  Z at select screen) which makes Dark Spongebob even more cheap, to the point of being able to take down characters such as Omega Tom Hanks with a special reversal. This spongebob is considered the cheapest version available at the moment. He has many new moves, such as Patty Bomb, Noivern Striker, Dark Sanders Striker, Lightning Summon, Black Hole Chaos and more. He also has a special intro when fighting himself, Felix's Spongebob or Blazing Sanders. Newer versions are much stronger, with 3.02 being the strongest as it is now armed with Chaos/F1 Killer when facing F1. It also has the power to cancel out pauses and super pauses using a pause canceller helper. He also has OTHK priority as well as All Projectile priority.

ABSOLUTE-Yveltal's Spongebob_ABSOLUTE
Basically an edit of Dark Spongebob with most cheap aspects removed, it still has the same moveset only the OHKO moves can only be used in his special palettes. This edit is considered to be more custom like Dark Spongebob or much like the rest of his ABSOLUTE edit series.

Yuranto70's SpongeBob SquarePants


Yuranto70's version is an edit of Skulper34's Spongebob. It is a minor edit of Skulper's Spongebob with a Patrick striker added in.

imomj1's version
An edit of Placemario's Spongebob, this version is overpowered, probably meant to be a boss battle. Cheap characters can deal with it quickly.

TheNoahGuy1's version
TheNoahGuy1 also made a SpongeBob, although it was rather poorly made and somewhat cheap. TheNoahGuy1 later updated the character, fixing these problems and adding more Specials and Hypers. The sprites were ripped and edited from ''NickToons: Freeze Frame Frenzy. There is also a Hyper that is a reference to NickToons Racing.''

ONI-Dark Spongebob


ONI-Dark Spongebob is an odd edit of Dark Spongebob, edited by TurretJACK. The differences between Dark Spongebob and ONI-Dark Spongebob are the different sounds and different palette, to make him be a parody of Iekurah's ONI edits.

Trivia

 * FelixMario2011's SpongeBob is the first SpongeBob to be made with custom sprites.
 * ABSOLUTE-Yveltal's Dark Spongebob has strikers such as Mewtwo, Dark Sanders and Onvern. ABSOLUTE stated that Dark Spongebob is mostly a parody of these characters and is not to be taken seriously.
 * ABSOLUTE-Yveltal's Dark Spongebob ironically has a special intro when fighting Blazing Colonel, another edit by the same author. He also has the same intro when fighting himself and when fighting Felix's Spongebob.
