This being football (armor and helmet), boxing (fighting style), Wild West (revolvers and pilot's last name, Crocket) and surfing (it didn't say why). The gorilla chest is there to complement.

Grade: C, for beginners, A- for masters. Gundam Rose GF13-009NF ?x Rose Bits 2x Head Vulcan 1x Chevalier Saber Dodge: Evade Description: Newtype USA strikes again with another helpful explanation. Three themes backup this one with, Alexandre Dumas's "The Three Musketeers" (Chivalry, sword and such), the look was based on the Napoleonic era, traditional French attire and finally the rose, which it's idea of romance was based on associations made by the French to it. Anime Info: Specials Vulcans: D, F, Punch, (Ammo, Variable) Des: You should know what this is by now 1:5 Ratio Anime: Com: Not Good on him, lacks damage Light Screen: D, B, Punch Des: Purple Shield comes from saber, absorbing projectiles Anime: Com: If you are fast enough, can be effective, but otherwise, no. Saber Combo: B, D, F, Punch Des: Jumps up about 2 meters from the ground, gives his sword a few swings Anime: Com: Inaccurate, and not powerful enough to be used Rose Deploy and Attack: B, D, F, Kick (Funnel) Des: Deploys roses that follow you around and, to an extent, protect you. Repeat the combo and the roses will fly at your opponent, pull off two shots and return to your suit. Keep in mind that when you are down, you can still order them to attack and they are not invulnerable, So watch it. Anime: Out of the few episodes I've seen, this was actually used. Com: Situational, but worth it. Saber Rise to Stab: F, D, F, Punch then Punch for stab Des: Flings sword up, then stabs flying forward Anime: Com: 6 hits, low damage but looks cool Saber Rondo: F, D, B, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Saber Turns purple, stabs forward Anime: Com: 5 hits, weak, try something else. Super: Rose Hurricane (Ground Only) Des: Roses make a small storm in front of you, causing a blur Anime: Similar to Rose Deploy and Attack Com: 37 hits, powerful, short ranged. Not too bad, if you stun them first The Good: Super, annoys your opponent with long attacks. The Bad: Most everything else The Ugly: The Pilot's Costume Com: Based on honor, so stay close Grade: C+ Bolt Gundam GF13-013NR 4x Head Vulcans 1x Gravitron Hammer Dodge: Evade Description: A relatively fat unit, big body, legs, etc. Anime Info: Specials: Vulcans: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Largest bullets of all the G-Gundam units and fires a lot at once 1:5 Ratio Anime: Com: Better, but doesn't really have great power. Fires 24 for strong, the most of any unit. (Not even Heavyarms competes with this) Throw: F, D, F Punch (Ground Only) Des: Grabs Opponent, brings over head and gives them a toss. Anime: Com: Rather interesting, good damage, and floors them. Gravitron Hammer: D, B, Punch (Ground Only) Des: Throws a ball attached to an energy chain at opponent, repeat during impact for double swing. Anime: Com: Swing for two if they don't block, if they do, just let it come back. Nice damage too. Shoulder Dash F, D, F, Kick (Ground Only) Des: Runs at opponent, shoulder hits them for damage. Anime: Com: Not bad, be close to insure full effect. Heavy Double Punch: F, D, B, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Fists glow and strikes with both arms at once. Anime: Com: Fast, really fast, 1/4 bar of damage and a knockdown, a really fast attack for a normally slow mecha. Super: Sakuretsu Giga-Crush (Ground Only) Des: Jumps up, both fists curled above head, and whacks down for damage, plus and energy wave that shoots out of the impact. Anime: Com: Strong, deals about 3/4 of a bar, and just plain beastly. The wave isn't very effective, so stay close. The Good: Lots of power and powerful attacks The Bad: Hard to move, dash is slow The Ugly: Jump and press strong punch, what is he doing? Com: If you can overcome the speed problem, he's quite good Grade: B+ The Mobile Armor Devil Gundam (Dark) JDG-00X 4x Head Vulcan (Not Used) 2x Devil Finger 1x Beam Cannon ?x Gundam Heads Dodge: None Description: The only thing you see is the head portion, has a lot of faces (Literally) and snakes with heads coming out of the ground. Anime Info: Specials: Electric Shock: D, F, Punch (Ground Only) Des: Electric field comes out of hand, slowly advances for damage Anime: Com: Not great, easily avoided Punch Combo: F, D, F, Punch Des: A series of 3 "one two" punches for a total of 6 hits, taking half a bar. Anime: Com: Very good and annoying, but if you miss, you are left wide open. Electric Field: F, D, F, Kick (Ground Only) Des: The name says it all, an energy field surrounds you, and whoever touches it, takes damage. Anime: Com: If your enemy is projectile happy, use this to protect yourself, otherwise, avoid it. Beam Cannons: D, B, Punch Des: 3 beams shoot out from upper body, hitting for damage Anime: Com: Decent, Good damage and effective against mobile armors. Dual Darkness Wave: F, D, B, Punch (Ground only, Can't Defend) Des: 2 Beams come from hand Anime: Com: A move you can stick to, has a lot of power, long range and fast, not to mention you can't guard against it (Heck, it would be good even without it). Master Asia: "Hey! That's my attack!" Super: Super Snake Attack Des: 3 gigantic snakes of the Devil Gundam attack and advance towards opponent. Anime: Com: Half a bar, good enough, but on the slow side. The Good: Powerful, big, and a beastly can't defend move. The Bad: As with all mobile armors, they sacrifice mobility for size. In other words, he's very slow. The Ugly: The Metal Snakes Com: Mobile armors require aggressive training to become something to you. Good luck though Grade: A- AC: After Colony 196: New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz Wing Gundam Zero Custom XXXG-00W0 2x Machine Cannons 2x Beam Sabers 1x Twin Buster Rifle Dodge: Evade Description: The angel wings and the twin buster rifle says it all. Unfortunately, the animators for this unit forgot that the wings are rather thick, to hold verniers and engines, but they left it out, so it's a bit unrealistic. Another thing is the fact that the wings bend and move around and have a much larger wingspan. Anime: The original Gundam of the series, modified to include angel wings and a higher power buster rifle, was never built originally for fear that it would be too powerful and go out of control. The Zero system that is included in the cockpit greatly enhances the pilot's ability to fight by showing him or her who their true enemies are, to the point where they don't even fear their own death. Piloted by almost everyone in the series, the system changed many of their lives in one way or another. A monster suit with unlimited capabilities. Specials: Machine Cannons: D, F, Punch (Variable, Ammo) Des: The cannons mounted on his shoulders pop out, deliver a few rounds and hide. 1:5 Ratio Anime: Used against Nataku, Epyon, and other suits plenty. Com: For long range combat, stick to the rifles, it's very weak. Buster Rifle Shots: D, B, Punch Des: Rifles separate, fire a shot, then recombine. Anime: Used wherever and whenever it fights, it's trump card and signature. Com: Holy cow this attack rules. Takes 3/10 of a bar, just annoying. Bird Tackle: D, B, Kick Des: Forewings come around to cover body, and you jump towards your opponent. Anime: No, and it would cause too much suit damage. Com: Less damage than the rifles, but adds one small advantage of shielding against bullets. Rising Bird Tackle: F, D, F, Kick Des: Forewings come around to cover body, and you jump vertically. Anime: Again no, and it would cause too much suit damage. Com: Pointless, only for a few instances and way too slow. Cluster Beam Shot: B, D, F, Punch Des: Gathers energy at the end of the rifle, then shoots it off in 5 directions. Anime: No, it only fires straight, not in all directions. Com: Too slow, too weak. Beam Saber: F, D, B, Punch (Can't Defend, Ground Only) Des: Saber appears from nowhere, becomes too big, and stabs opponent. Anime: Very often, especially when the buster rifle is running out of energy or for dueling. Com: The animators again messed up with this suit, the saber is really thin, but they made it thick. Anyway, it's not too bad, but you need to be close. Super: Final Twin Buster Blast (Ground Only) Cry: "I'll kill you" (Japanese "omae o korosu") Des: Wing leaps into the air, takes aim and shoots the most famous shot ever. Anime: Often, this blast can destroy a colony, a natural resource satellite or even a space battleship in one shot. Com: Why is it so weak! With what it did in the series, it should destroy any suit in one shot! 39 hits and 5/8 of a bar are taken. What a rip off! The Good: Excellent for beginners and experts alike, can stay airborne forever. The Bad: Half it's attacks don't really have a use, super was extremely downgraded. The Ugly: The animation job Com: Great suit, interesting super, and a cheap attack that works. Grade: A+ Gundam Deathcythe Hell Custom XXXG-01D2 2x Vulcan 1X Beam Scythe 2X Hyper Jammer Dodge: Evade Description: Gigantic bat wings, AKA the active cloak, and beam scythe are the signatures of this suit. Anime: The original was designed for operation meteor, but captured by OZ and destroyed by Trowa Barton. The Gundam designers, decided to rebuild Deathscythe and Shenlong, but scraped the idea and said we shouldn't just rebuild them, we need to make them better. Rebuilt, it had wings, modifications for space combat, an improved buster shield and a twin beam scythe. Modified to change the wing opening removed the shield and reverted the scythe back to a single beam, making it the custom model. Based solely on speed, stealth and a hilarious pilot this suit was the idea of 'get in, destroy something and get out with out anyone noticing'. Specials: Vulcans: D, F, Punch (Variable, Ammo) Des: Head deals some bullets, 1:2 Ratio Anime: Never used, or never seen that is, but used by the original model. Com: I think this is the weakest vulcan in the game Despite it's ammo efficiency. Scythe Power Slash Up: F, D, F, Punch (Can't Defend, Ground Only) Des: Inverts scythe, lowers it, waits a half second and slashes up. Anime: Yes, but not like this. Com: Stick to triangle if you can not do this and juggle your opponent. Kick Attack: D, F, Kick Des: Jump towards your opponent, give him a kick. Anime: No. Com: Powerful and Knocks opponent down. Scythe Energy Shot: F, D, F, Kick Cry: (Inaudible Word) Slash Des: Energy from Scythe Spin forward in a double spin like two dogs chasing each others tail in a circle, dealing damage and preventing projectiles. Anime: No, have you ever seen an energy attack in Gundam Wing? Com: Good against projectiles, and can deal damage if you are in close. Cloak: D, B, Kick then hold any direction Des: Wings surround Deathscythe, and cloak him for about a second while going somewhere. Can be canceled into an attack and he is invulnerable while doing so. Anime: Yes, of course he disappeared. Com: Get in, or get out, either way it has it's uses. Super #1: Scythe Throw (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Cry: "Slash, Slash, Slash!" (Street) Then "Die" (Any) Des: Name says it all, throws scythe at opponent, dealing damage. Anime: No, it's his primary weapon, why would he get rid of it?! Com: Bad, could be better, and leaves your venerable. Super #2" Air Scythe Throw (Can't Defend, Air Only) Cry: "Slash, Slash, Slash!" Then "Die" Des: Name says it all, throws scythe at opponent while airborne, dealing damage. Anime: No, it's his primary weapon, why would he get rid of it?! Com: Bad attack made interesting, Fire off your vulcans then the super combo and it will be thrown in air. The Good: Fast, has some good attacks and an aerial super. The Bad: Not too powerful and weak super. The Ugly: Duo's bad jokes and such. Com: If you can move fast enough and not get hit, use him. Grade: C for beginners, A- for experts Tallgeese III OZ-00MS2B 2x Vulcan (Not Used) 2x Beam Saber 1x Heat Rod 1x Mega Cannon Dodge: Evade Description: Tall, the 3rd largest mobile suit in the game, the cannon on his right arm, big engines, heat rod and gigantic legs are everything to this suit. Anime: The original mobile suit of the series, Tallgeese was scraped 21 years ago because the designers and builders thought it to be too big. It needed to be that tall to maintain it's power. But that was changed and the standard size of about 16 meters was adopted (the series is of suits are 17.4). 20 years after the prototype was scraped and stashed at the Mediterranean base where Leos are manufactured, Zechs comes across it, looking for a suit to compete with the Gundams. Fixed, this suit becomes used by him for about 30 episodes. Severely damaged, he self-detonates it, and takes Wing Gundam Zero for a while. Tallgeese II was created by Treize Khushrenada and inspired by Epyon for some modifications, it was for the battle to end all wars, however it was destroyed and Treize was killed by Wufei. Tallgeese III was made sometime during this battle, but wasn't finished in time, so the Preventers confiscated it and stowed it away, hoping to never use it. However in Endless Waltz, Zechs comes back (everyone thinks he's dead except his ever faithful Lucrezia Noin) and pilots it to destroy MO III where the invasion force was based at, but reluctantly attacked after he heard that L3-X18999 would be dropped onto earth if he destroyed it. Later hearing it won't happen, he blows it too hell and heads to earth. He fights on earth to disable the incoming invasion force of Serpent Custom suits. (Big Important suit. There is your background on it.) Specials: Cannon Shot: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Cannon shoots some energy shots, 1:35 Ratio Anime: Yes, but not like this. Com: Not too bad, but not to great either, more info in the next move. Rail Cannon Shot: D, F, Kick (Ammo, Varies) Des: Cannon shoots green energy shots that go through your opponent. 1:45 Ratio Anime: Yes, but not like this. Com: Up to 3 hits per shot on a suit, and more damage. Against mobile armors, it's more like 5 hits and a lot of damage. Depending on opponent, you should choose wisely the shot you want to use. Heat Rod: D, B, Punch (Ground Only) Des: Rod comes out of shield, heats it and gives it a swing. Anime: Used to grab a suit by the foot, drag it to knock over two others Com: 1/4 of a bar and 2 hits, good. Similar version of the attack can be used by pressing up and strong punch in air. Tall Charge: F, D, F, Punch Des: Puts hands guarding face, and flies up and over your opponent, usually hitting them if you can aim. Anime: He never hit anybody physically Com: It's back, from New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Endless Duel it's made a triumphant return, a movement technique with damage and a knock down, Nice! Tall Kick to Buster Shot: F, D, F, Kick (Ground Only) Des: Jump at opponent, kick, deliver 3 buster shot's from cannon. Anime: Again, he never hit anybody physically, and it never shot like that. Com: If you can hit your opponent, gets you in, hitting and out with good damage. Beam Saber: F, D, B, Punch (Ground, Can't Defend) Des: Saber comes from over head, gives it a huge swing. Anime: Of course, why not? Com: Strong, Long and very fast. The best beam saber attack in the game. Super: Mega Cannon Cry: "Mega Cannon!" Des: Cannon Opens up all the way, points it and lets the beam fly. Anime: The only time it's seen, and this is the way it was, destroying MOIII Com: 5/8 of a bar, 27 hit's and very nice. But it was held over his shoulder not under his arm. Anyways, like with Wing Gundam Zero Custom, it destroyed a resource satellite, why can't it destroy a suit in one shot?! The Good: Lot's of projectile fun, and fast. The Bad: As darkdude3 said in his guide to New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Endless Duel for the SNES, "Tallgeese = Big Target". The Ugly: Gold Plated Alternate Armor? Com: Requires some work, but very effective for anyone Grade: A- Gundam Sandrock Custom XXXG-01SR2 2x Heat Shotel 2x Vulcans Dodge: Evade Description: Blue Armor, White body, and gigantic shotels hanging out on it's back. Once again the animators messed up. The shotels are supposed to be dead white, while the body is a metallic silver. Anime: One of the original suits designed and built for operation meteor, Sandrock was known for the shotels and it's high armor ability, to protect the pilot because he was the heir to a wealthy aristocratic family. When the pilots decided to return to space, Sandrock was self detonated to ensure two of the other pilots (Duo and Wu Fei) and suits got out alive. Attempted to be rebuilt/repaired by OZ, it was captured by Quatre's good friends and allies, the Maguanac Corps. Worked on some by them, it was completely repaired and Quatre took the suit to protect the Sanc Kingdom and later fight with the other pilots in space. While in space, it was modified to for space combat, and given a beam sub-machine gun. Taking away most of it's armaments (sub-machine gun and dual homing missiles) and changing some armor, made this suit more maneuverable and athletic resulting in the custom model. This suit wipes out countless Serpent Customs in the movie. Specials: Energy Vulcans: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: There Back and better than ever! 1:5 Ratio Anime: Nope, not any model Com: Strong Ammo, and quite useful Shotel Energy Spin: D, B, Punch (Varies) Des: Flips shotels in front of him, shooting an energy cyclone at opponent. Weak is single hit infinite range and strong is multi-hit shorter range. Anime: Again, no energy attacks in Gundam Wing Com: Good damage and effective, just make sure you know which one to use at the right time. Underhand Shotel Energy Spin: F, D, F, Punch (Varies, Ground Only) Des: Same thing as before, but instead of shooting it forward, it goes up then down. Anime: Similar to the first, so it never happened. Com: Very nice against mobile armors, and good against suits, just aim. Shotel Flip Attack: D, F, Kick Des: Heats shotels flips twice in the air, making the shotels do the dirty work. Anime: If he's going to attack with them, they are in his hands or in the air. Com: Good against mobile armors, but not against suits. Shotel Combo: D, B, Kick then kick to end (Ground Only) Des: Takes out shotels, gives a 4 hit advancing combo and slams down (Provided you hit kick to finish it) Anime: Yes! And kinda like this. Com: Very Effective, and excellent knockdown move. Shotel Charge: F, D, B, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Takes out shotels, super heats them, and charges towards your opponent. Anime: Yes indeed Com: Huge range makes up for the lack of damage. Super: Earth Slash Des: Hesitates, then swings shotels up hard to send two pink flying waves at his opponent. Anime: Uh, no Com: 10 hit's and less than half a bar taken? Oh please, Sandrock is much better than that. Very slow, and your opponent can easily move. Com2: Just recently fount this can do more than I said it did. 18 hits and almost an entire bar taken, but you need to be about a suit's (standing up) distance away for it to be effective. Com3: But I still think the Gundam Wing: Endless Duel super would have been a bit more fun. The Good: Lot's of powerful attacks The Bad: Timing and intelligence to know what to do and when it's needed, can't stick to just one attack. The Ugly: Weak kick, strong kick on ground. (Repeat to raise hell) Com: While lacking it's true power, it's not too bad. Grade: B- Gundam Nataku (Altron Gundam) XXXG-01S2 2x Vulcans 2x Dragon Arms and Claws 1x Twin Beam Trident Dodge: Evade Description: All green, big arms and hands. Anime: The original was designed for operation meteor, but captured by OZ and dismantled by the Gundam scientists. The Gundam designers, decided to rebuild Shenlong and Deathscythe, but scraped the idea and said we shouldn't just rebuild them, we need to make them better. From single dragon arm to dual, vulcan to beam cannon tail, beam glaive to dual beam trident and space wings for space combat, this suit receives the most massive upgrade for any suit. I hate what was done to it for the custom model, but that's an opinion. No beam cannon, no flamethrowers and the vulcans are back. The only plus is the huge dragon arms. The suit didn't do much in Endless Waltz just dueled with Heero. Based on the "direct approach" made for suit destruction and a fighting ability reflecting the pilot. Specials: Energy Vulcans: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Duh! 1:5 ratio Anime: Custom model, no, original, yes. Com: You know the drill, but it's got decent damage. Forearm Throw: D, B, Punch Des: Dragon arm extends some, and grips opponent. Anime: Of course, the arms aren't there for nothing. Com: If you can clamp your opponent, he'll get knocked down. Good damage and 4 hits if you are close. It would be nice if this was like the Endless Duel version, attack, grab and throw to the other side of the screen. Shield Jump: D, B, Kick (Varies) Des: Puts arms in front of face and jumps forward for strong, backward for weak. Anime: Uses them as shields, but not moving like this. Com: Movement while guarding. Useless. Uppercut to Claw Strike: F, D, F, Punch (Ground Only, Doesn't Effect Mobile Armors) Des: Uppercuts opponent, then shoots claw at them for extra damage. Anime: Not really. Com: If your close, can be effective. Trident Jump Attack: F, D, B, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Jumps up, Pulls out trident and slams down. Anime: Yes, plenty. Com: Four hits on suits, more on armors. Damage isn't that good however. Trident Combo Attack: F, D, B, F, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Pulls out trident, and gives a three slash combo. Anime: Yes, and more like this. Com: Better damage, and effective against both suits and mobile armors. 5-6 hits. The insanely long combo is way to hard to master Super: Claw Combo (Ground only) Des: Fires back claw first, the fore, then both together. Anime: Yes, interestingly enough Com: 11 hits, but segmented to 3-3-5 so your opponent can guard after the first three. So it's not that good. Can usually take more than half a bar out (provided your opponent is a real baka). The Good: Plenty of attacks, and claws add good range. The Bad: Pathetic super, Some good attacks are hard. The Ugly: The Color change is confusing for two of them dueling. Com: Long range and good damage, but still lacking some. Grade: D For beginners B+ for experts. Gundam Heavyarms Custom XXXG-01H2 52x Micro-Missiles 36x Homing Missiles 4x Gatling Cannons (In Chest) 2x Vulcans 2x Machine Cannons 2x Dual Beam Gatling Cannons Dodge: Evade Description: Huge shoulders, leg pods, huge chest, and, of course, the dual beam gatling cannons for arms. Anime: One of the five suits for operation meteor, it's the only one that has never been destroyed or self-detonated. All those powerful weapons, so what happens when you run out of ammo? The answer was an army knife on it's right arm. It was taken into space by Heero and was space modified and included was a second beam gatling cannon in addition to the one on it's left arm. In Endless Waltz, it was made nuts, but after all the ammo was gone, it was useless. 4 gatlings, 4 beam gatlings, well, you read the armaments. Literally shoots missiles out of the air, Serpent Customs out of the sky and mowing them down on the ground, one exceptional suit with massive guns. Specials: Beam Gatling Guns: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Delivers powerful beams from the arm cannons, 1:5 Ratio Anime: Duh! What do you think their for? Com: Powerful, I needn't say more. Leg Homing Missiles: D, B, Punch Des: Fires off 8 missiles that follow your opponent around. Anime: Not there for show folks. Com: Annoy someone with this, good damage and a well rounded attack. Back flip: D, B, Kick (Ground Only) Des: Heavyarms does a nice back flip, his pilot is a gymnast Anime: Believe it or not, yes. Com: Leaves you invulnerable for about a second and gets you out of a problem, not bad. Anti-Air Kick Storm: F, D, F, Punch (Ground Only) Des: Slides in, kicks up, delivers 12 rounds Anime: Not like this. Com: Get somewhat close and surprise someone who thinks your all long range. Shock Missiles: F, D, B, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Fires heavy missiles straight. Anime: I believe so Com: Good, for his can't defend move. Super: Full Fire Des: Everything opens up, or gets pointed and Trowa just lets lose. Anime: Duh! One reason he kicked so much behind. Com: Not Bad, stun your opponent first, very effective against mobile armors. The Good: Lots of heavy projectile weapons, and they hurt too. The Bad: Slow The Ugly: Your opponent after your done with him. Com: Awesome suit, great for anyone. Grade A+ Gundam Epyon OZ-13MS 1x Heat Rod 1x Heavy Beam Sword Dodge: Evade Description: Wings, the heat rod/shield, claws and a dark red and black color. Anime: Built by Treize (He never piloted it though) based on the data from the Gundams and his ideals of honor and courage, in other words, no projectiles. Also equipped with the Zero System, and the heavy beam sword, you can't get a better close combat suit. No suit, with the exception of Heero and Wing Gundam Zero, can beat it. Period. Specials: Demon Strike #1: D, F, Punch Des: Shields face with claws, and flies in any direction you pick. Invulnerable for some time. Anime: No, No physical attacks Com: Pull off the next move and it's useful. Demon Strike #2: D, F, Punch Right after #1 hit's your opponent and you are still airborne. Des: Same thing, just longer charge and moves further. Anime: No Com: Now it's useful, keep your opponent on his/her toes and adds a knockdown. Demon Strike #3: D, B, Punch Des: Demon Strike going straight up. Anime: Again, No Com: Does a lot of damage and adds knockdown, be close though. Standing Long Jump: D, B, Kick Des: Holy cow it's back. Jump at opponent. Anime: Nah Com: In Endless Duel, if this was chained, it did more damage, your opponent couldn't defend and had a knockdown if it was done right. Now all it has is surprise. Beam Sword Up-slash: F, D, B, Punch (Can't Defend, Ground Only) Des: Uppercut slash at opponent. Anime: Of course! What's it there for?! Com: Remember what Tallgeese's speed with his saber was? Well this is faster, delivers more hits and a knockdown. I wish it was like episode 34 it can extend long enough to cut 4 suits in half. Super: Beam Sword Combo (Can't Defend, Ground Only) Des: Sword on, slash up, down then jump up. Anime: Like this plenty. Com: Good attack, and has the knockdown at the end. But...Why couldn't we have the super from Endless Duel?! It ruled! 20 hits and about half a bar (one and a half in this game), not to mention it was projectile, come on! The Good: Fast, strong sword. The Bad: No projectiles (Who needs them?) The Ugly: Not as fun anymore Com: Excellent suit if your fast. But if you're a newbie, prepare to get whooped. Grade: F for beginners A- for experts. Hydra Gundam (ID#) (Armaments) Dodge: Evade Description: Bulky for a suit, and also the second tallest. Has a rifle and shield hanging on shoulders that are his dual beam cannons. That's an interesting use of space. The name and the suit don't seem to match. Anime: Manga series only, other than that, I don't know. Specials: Beam Rifle #1: D, F, Punch (Ground Only, Ammo, Varies) Des: Rifle points at opponent, and fires a few rounds 1:15 Ratio Manga (It's not in the anime is it?): Com: Nice, and decent damage. Beam Rifle #2: D, F, Punch (Air, Ammo, Varies) Des: Rifle is taken off hook, pointed and shot 1:15 Ratio Manga: Com: Same thing, but a little slower. Buster Shots: D, B, Punch Des: Takes sword and shield off cannons, points and delivers four rounds in two volleys. Manga: Com: Slower and less punch than Wing Gundam Zero Custom, so don't use it that often. Beam Saber One-Two: F, D, B, Punch (Ground, Can't Defend) Des: Saber swing up, saber swing down. Manga: Com: You typically get two hits in before your opponent gets knocked back too far and the downswing is nothing but cleaving the air. Super: Hydra Punch-Kick-Sword Rush Combo: (Ground Only, Conditional Can't Defend) Des: Four Punches, Three kicks and a three hit beam saber attack, all while advancing towards your opponent. Manga: Com: Something on this mecha does work? Really? Ok, stun your opponent and let lose your fury. Something I feel like mentioning: His guard move is completely unique in the fact that projectiles seem to hit something relevant to an I-Field (see Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory or anything afterwards) in other words, projectiles don't affect him while guarding. The Good: The Guard Move The Bad: Three specials? The Ugly: Uh... Nice hair, I guess. Com: No variety of specials and the ones it has aren't even worth using. Grade: D- (The shield prevented me from giving it an F) UC: Universal Century: Mobile Suit Gundam (UC: 0079) Gundam RX-78-2 + FF-X7 Core Fighter 2x Head Vulcans 2x Beam Sabers 1x Javelin Attachment for Beam Saber 1x Beam Rifle 1x Hyper Bazooka (Not Used) 1x Hyper Hammer (Not Used) Dodge: Evade Description: The most human-looking mecha in the game, mostly white colored, with a rifle in his right hand, shield is his left and two beam sabers hanging out the backpack, it just looks like a well armed human that's 18 meters tall. Anime: The second (RX-78-1 was the original) prototype close combat mobile suit for the Earth Federal Forces (AKA The Federation) was picked up by Amuro Ray and with no experience whatsoever takes out two Zeon Zakus and manages to save the colony where he lived (battle #1 in street mode replicates this). He helped evacuate the remaining civilians in the colony and joins the Federation on their advanced Assault Carrier, White Base that was in charge of Gundam, Guncannon and Guntank's operations. Little did he know that he was getting himself into quite the war and an endless rivalry with Char Aznable. While he is a Newtype he doesn't have the ability to use a Newtype shield. Specials Beam Rifle: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Points rifle and lets a few rounds fly 1:40 ratio Anime: It's not there for show folks... Com: Excellent projectile move and takes about 3/16 of a bar per shot, but watch your ammo consumption. Shield Uppercut: F, D, F, Punch (Ground Only) Des: Slides in and uppercuts with shield for damage Anime: Not that I know of Com: A bit to unruly to use but if timed correctly, can deliver under half a bar and a knockdown. Hammer Toss: B, D, F, Punch (Ground Only) Des: Rifle disappears, Hammer appears and he swings it underhanded at opponent Cry: Hammer Anime: Yeah, somewhat like this Com: Excellent move when your cornered, your opponent is knocked back half the screen and the damage is about 1/4 of a bar. Vulcan Cannons: B, F, Punch (Ground Only, Varies) Des: Head fires short range bullets in an up and down sweeping motion. Weak fires off four bullets, but if you hit strong and keep pressing it, you can fire more bullets (I've done up to 24 rounds). Anime: Well yeah, but used the beam rifle more often Com: An Easter egg technique, so it doesn't do much in the form of damage and the range is too short. Saber Stab: D, B, Punch (Can't Defend, Ground Only) Des: Jumps in the air a couple of meters, puts saber over head and stabs down Anime: He slashed it more often and stabbed with it too, but not like this Com: Good speed and half a bar provided you put some distance between you and your opponent. Saber Slash: F, D, B, Punch (Can't Defend, Ground Only) Des: Takes a saber out of the backpack and does a full frontal down slash Anime: More like this when it was used Com: About the same stuff as the saber stab, but the distance between you doesn't make a difference Beam Javelin: F, D, B, Punch (Air Only, Can't Defend) Cry: Gundam Javelin Des: Takes saber out with javelin attachment and stabs downward Anime: Exactly like it is but used against a mobile fortress and not a mecha Com: Don't bother against suits with this, it's a bit inaccurate, but go all out against mobile armors with this. Super: Gundam Hammer Spin Cry: "Gundam Hammer!" Des: Swings hammer to his side then swings it forward at opponent Anime: Yes, somewhat like this too Com: YES!!!! I don't mean to exclaim it but this attack rules! Well anyways, it does an entire bar of damage in one, that's right, one hit. It's hard to aim, but with practice, it will become second nature. The Good: Lot's of strong attacks, and a one bar super The Bad: Almost nothing, no particular weaknesses The Ugly: An inexperienced pilot in the Federation's most advanced mobile suit spells a whole lot of trouble. Com: Incredible suit, nothing but the best for it Grade: B+ for beginners A+ for experts Zaku II and Zaku IIS MS-06F and MS-06S ?x Cracker Grenade 2x 3-Missle Pod (Not Used, Zaku II only) 1x Zaku Machine Gun 1x Bazooka (Not Used) Dodge: Evade Description: Looks like a tough workhorse mecha with a shield, machine gun and a green/red and gray color scheme. Anime: The second in series of mass produced mobile suits, the Zaku II is the cheapest and easiest to manufacture mecha in the series. Incorporating very basic and simple technology because the federation didn't have the means to counter 17.5-meter unit just reeking havoc on everything. Uncountable numbers of these units were made, like the idea of strength in numbers. A second and slightly upgraded version, also called the Commander Type, contained a little more power, and had stronger thrusters. Char is a Newtype, but the suit isn't equipped with a psycommu system. Specials Zaku Rifle: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Point, shoot. 1:10 ratio Anime: Uh, yeah, what else would it attack with? Com: Waste of ammo, the shots are incredibly weak, strong takes 1/4 bar Cracker Grenade: D, B, Punch Des: Gun goes away and tosses three grenades forward if you're on the ground and down if you're air Anime: Saw it in 0080: War in the Pocket, but not anywhere else Com: Same as the rifle with no ammo use and a shorter range Shoulder Charge Jump: D, B, Punch Des: Jump in the air and hit something for damage Anime: Uh, not that I know of Com: Decent against anything, but leaves you wide open if you miss Heat Hawk Swing: D, F, Kick (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Heats the heat hawk and gives it a swing for damage Anime: Well yeah, you run out of ammo you have got to have a weapon Com: Does a surprising amount of damage for the power that they really have about 1/3 of a bar Super Cracker Grenade 1-2-3 Des: Tosses three cracker grenades in one hand, then the other then back for a total of nine grenades fired three at a time. Anime: I don't think this many at once Com: Can score almost a full bar if you can get close enough, but not too great anyways Zaku II, Zaku IIs, what's the difference? Thrusters are the only difference, IIs is obviously better at it so it can jump all over the place with no trouble. The Good: IIs is hard to hit, II doesn't have anything going for it The Bad: All the attacks except the super The Ugly: You mean to tell me this pathetic suit is really that unstoppable? Com: If you want a slight challenge, pick one. Grade: D For II C- for IIs The Mobile Armor for 0079 Big Zam MA-08 28x Anti-Aircraft Mega Particle Guns 6X Air to Air Missiles (50 in the game) 2x 105mm Vulcan Guns (Not Used) 1X Large Mega Particle Cannon Dodge: None Description: Huge legs and head, thrusters coming out the ying-yang and cannons on the head pointing in every direction, as well as a large one in front. Anime: Haven't seen it Special (Yes, only one): Air to Air Missiles: D, F, Punch (Ammo) Des: Five missiles come out of the bottom of the head and home in on opponent Anime: Com: For it's only special, it raises hell and can take almost a bar off a suit Super: Large Mega Particle Cannon Des: Cannon's safeties are removed and the cannon lets energy fly Anime: Com: 50 hits and usually a bar and a fragment, it's faster then the missles, auto targets your opponet, but the little lag gives your opponent the edge of what you are doing, so just let it fly when they are doing there super to counter. The Good: Strong with attacks to match The Bad: Getting hit behind your back and it's insanely slow The Ugly: Big Zam is ugly Com: Don't let anyone get behind you, or else you'll never hear the end of it. Grade: D for newbies, B for Experts Zeong MSN-02 2x Mega Particle Gun attached to torso (Not Used) 2x Five Barrel Mega Particle gun (AKA Zeong's fingers) 1x Mega Particle Gun attached to Head Dodge: Newtype Shield Description: A rather bizarre looking suit, with a huge torso, big hands, and stubby legs that are just housing for verniers, and nothing more. His head antennas kinda look like the horns of a demon or something of the sort. Anime: Didn't show up in the series very long, just long enough to duel RX-78-2 one more time (the second to last time). A psycommu system allows Char to control many of the more sophisticated moves, EX. His super. The suit isn't in it's finished state however, the legs are supposed to be longer, but Char needed sooner, but he was told it's ready for zero-g combat. It doesn't last though, it was dealt with by RX-78-2 and Char wasn't seen again for 14 years. (More with Sazabi) Specials: Mega Particle Hand Cannons: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Points four fingers straight at opponent, and let's a few energy rounds fly in bursts. 1:10 Ratio Anime: (I forgot) Com: Would you believe the weak version twice does more than the strong? It does. Punch Up Attack D, B, Punch Des: A swing uppercut puts your opponent airborne, and finishes with a one-two-three punch combo Anime: Com: Good, and if you miss, the attack stops. Also effective against mobile armors. Energy Hand Attack: F, D, B, Punch (Ground Only, Can't Defend) Des: Raises hand, and a green energy ball forms at the end of it, then swings down. Anime: Com: 3/8 of a bar, and decent speed, potentially good for any purpose. Super: Fly By Wire Hands and Head Mega Particle Cannon Combo (Call it Star Wars for short) Des: Hands come out of sockets, fly around at opponent while the cannons fire at it. Anime: Com: Can take more then one bar out if you are ranged correctly, and just the lightsaber sound makes it cool. The Good: Attacks are good, kicks do a lot of damage, and the super is really something. The Bad: Not very many specials The Ugly: That's one ugly red color there..... Com: Newbies will like the strong attacks, Good players will like the super, and the masters will raise hell using both Grade: A Ball RB-79 1x Cannon Dodge: Evade Description: A ball with stubby arms, small backpack and a head cannon. Anime: Didn't make many appearances because it was wasted first. Lightly armed, and not very functional, this is not the weapon of choice for combat but rather maintenance and construction purposes. Specials: Cannon Shot: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Cannon lets one or three shots fly, 1:100 Ratio (Worst in game) Anime: Com: Ok damage but Ammo Inefficient Hammer Thrust: D, B, Punch Des: Pulls a hammer out of his pack of tools and hits six times Anime: Com: An annoying attack, but probably his best Helicopter Spin: D, B, Kick Des: The cannon spins, you jump at your opponent Anime: Com: Doesn't hit much, but against mobile armors it's not bad Super: Doesn't have one (If it did, what would it look like?) The Good: Jack Squat! (Thank You Chris Farley) The Bad: Everything The Ugly: This Mecha is gameworthy? Com: It's almost useless, unless you want to humiliate your friends. [Ball (You) Level 1 VS Anything Level 9] Grade: F Acguy 12x Extendible Claws 4x Vulcan Gun 1x Six Tube Rocket Launcher (Not Used) 1X Mega Particle Gun (Not Used) Dodge: Evade Description: Big head and body, thick arms with extendible claws. Anime: An amphibious mecha used mostly in underwater operations, similar features, parts and designs of the Zaku. Specials: Hand Vulcan: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Puts out hand and lets a few rounds fly, 1:10 Ratio Anime: Com: It's ok, but that's about it. Claw Strike: D, B, Punch (Ground) Des: Extends claws and drills in an uppercut fashion Anime: Com: Trump, it's all fun. Claw Jump: F, D, B, Punch (Ground, Can't Defend) Des: Spins claws up and leaps at opponent with them out in front. He looks evil when spinning the claws. Anime: Com: More fun than strike, and deals 3/8 of a bar Super: Tuck and Roll Des: Curls up and starts rolling all over the screen, covering it twice. Anime: Com: It's annoying and looks cool, but damage wise isn't that good. The Good: Evil looking claws and attacks The Bad: Pathetic super and no real power The Ugly: What is Akahana Wearing? A Bear Suit? Com: He's alright, I guess Grade: C Gundam 0080 War in the Pocket Hygogg MSM-03C 4x Torpedo Launcher 2x Beam Cannon 2x Hand Missile Unit (Not Used) Dodge: Evade Description: Short legs, head as body, really long arms and an orange backpack housing torpedoes and verniers. Anime: This Gundam made an appearance of about five minutes or so, but anyways, it is an amphibious mecha that's only mission was to stop the Gundam "Alex" from reaching outer space, but failed at it. Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory Gundam Physalis RX-78GP-02A 2x 60MM Vulcan Guns (Not Used) 2x Beam Saber 1x Atomic Bazooka with MK-82 Shell Dodge: Evade Description: A very bulky mecha, with a massive shield and giant shoulder verniers. Anime: One of three prototype Gundams for use by the Earth Federation. This unit was designed for tactical nuclear strikes from a closer range than Federation cruisers and bases. It was taken to Earth for testing in a gravity situation, but was stolen by Anavel Gato and taken to the Delaz fleet for use in operation stardust, where the nuke destroyed about 60% of the federation's entire fleet. The Mobile Armor for 0083 Neue Ziel AMA-X2 (Axis Fleet) or AMX-002 (Delaz Fleet) 9x Mega Particle Gun (Not used) 4x Hidden Sub Arm (1x Used) 4x Beam Gun/Beam Saber (On Sub Arms) (1x Used) 4x Large Missile launcher (Not Used) 2x 12-tube Missile Launcher 2x Wired Heavy Claw Arm 2x Beam Gun/Beam Saber (On Heavy Claws) 1x Mega Cannon (Holy cow this thing's loaded) Dodge: Evade Description: The Largest Unit in the game, period. Has large shoulders coming out then coming down, legs that are just verniers and a host other indescribable things. Anime: (I haven't seen that part yet) Double-Zeta Gundam Full Armor Enhanced ZZ Gundam (Drop the enhanced for the game name) FA-010S 2x Hyper Beam Saber/Double Beam Cannon 2x 60mm Vulcan Gun (Not Used) 2x 18-tube Missile Launcher 2x 8-tube Missile Launcher 2x 2-tube Large Missile Pod 2x 6-tube Spray Missile Launcher 1x Hyper Mega Cannon 1x 3-tube Missile Launcher 1x Double Beam Rifle Dodge: Newtype Shield Description: Uh, hmm, this one's hard. Basically you see double barrel shield/gun and sabers pointing out the back, but it mostly looks like RX-78-2 with some heavy armor. Anime: (Haven't Seen Zeta Or Double Zeta, Doh!) Quin Mantha NZ-000 30x Funnel Bits 2x Mega Particle Gun 2x Beam Saber 1x Three Barrel Mega Particle Gun Dodge: Evade Description: Big, bulky with odd shoulder attachments and a greenish color.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack Sazabi MSN-04 6x Funnel 3x Small Missile (Not Used) 2x Beam Saber (Not Used) 1x Beam shot rifle 1x Mega Particle Gun Dodge: Evade Description: It's all red with gray joints very big feet, a shield in hand and funnel holders out the back. Anime: Specials: Beam Shot Rifle: D, F, Punch (Ammo, Varies) Des: Fires beams like a shotgun, 1:30 Ratio Anime: Com: Waste of ammo, too little damage and the spray idea makes it hard to hit your opponent. Flip Kick: D, B, Kick Des: An odd looking front flip that clobbers your opponent to the ground Anime: Com: 3/8 damage and a knock down it's alright, I guess. Funnel Attack: B, D, F, Punch (D, F, Punch to fire) Des: Small red spinning bits float above Sazabi and shoot twice Anime: Com: Not bad, but could be better, see Gundam Rose for more info on bits and funnel attacks. Heat Tomahawk: F, D, B, Punch (Ground, Can't Defend) Des: Pulls out the heat hawk, lets it heat for a second then swings it down and up. Anime: Com: Three hits and 1/4 of a bar, meh, could have been better Super: Mega Particle Cannon Des: Char lets the cannon fly with 20 hits in a relatively straight line. Anime: Com: This is a very nice attack, can take more than 3/4 of a bar if lucky. Stun and fire. The Good: Nice super and ok specials The Bad: The ammo shot and not many specials The Ugly: Make it Blue, again Com: I know someone who absolutely rips with this guy, but I don't see how he's so great.

Fin Funnels: B, D, F, Punch (D, F, Punch to Fire) Des: Funnels come out and protect Nu Gundam, but have one difference, they can't be destroyed by projectiles. Anime: Com: Not bad, low damage but the projectile defense is more than enough to make it up. Beam Saber: Des: Similar to RX-78-2, but doesn't do a full half moon swing. Anime: Com: Yeah, Same as RX-78-2, again. Super: Doesn't have one (Gundam Hammer on this mecha would have been nice) The Good: Funnels that don't die, good kicks The Bad: Lack of a super The Ugly: That's a really nice purple tint you have there...
