     so i cracked open smash ultimate because i wanted to just take lucas’s moveset by the frames to see what kuma would focus on showing him when it came to teaching him stuff, but i thought i’d look at ness’s stuff just because i was curious to see the differences between them. now im gonna post some probably not interesting things that i find interesting because im a nerd.

lucas typically uses two fingers, pointer and middle, for his pk moves, but ness only uses one, pointer. makes me wonder if there’s a difference or if general preference.

lucas doesn’t punch, like, at all. the only thing that could be considered a ‘punch’ is his side tilt, but that turns into a more slap-like hand gesture before it comes anywhere close to connecting. he’s a very kicky boi. ness only punches with the first two parts of his jab so neither of them are particularly punchy but that’s still more than lucas’s zero (0)

we all know this one but ness’s psi particles are circular while lucas’s are hexagonal.

ness’s smash 64 art radiates “your motherfucking life ends thirty minutes from now” energy and i really don’t like it.

ness’s model stretches out like fuckin silly putty during his double jump and it’s weird and i dont like it please dont slow motion this kid’s double jump.

ness uses less pk moves because he’s got his yo-yo alongside his bat, makes me wonder how he’d do without his equipment since all lucas has is a stick and a snake. 

kumatora still didn’t show lucas how to fuckin blow himself up btw, that was all ness. she was like “duster was nice enough to lend you rope snake, he should be fine enough with getting you on the platform when you’re sent flying”. and then ness showed up like “have you tried SeLf DeToNaTiOn” and that’s how he got his recovery. 

i’m overly intrigued by the hand motions that the kidses use when doing their pk moves, because ness shoots his pk fire out with his finger, but lucas full on kamehamehas that shit. my brain wants to say that lucas’ moves are a touch more forceful because bold and brash aka kumatora taught him how to do them, but that’s just me thinking.

their psi magnet is interesting. ness holds his around his body but lucas holds his out in front of him. makes me think that kuma showed it to lucas like “yeh it’s meant for turning foes’ energies into your own strength but you can also use it to knick people if you wanna. everything can be used to keep your opponents on their toes if you’re smart enough” while traditional poo was like “it’s. for healing. just use it for healing.”
