Super Smash Bros. Ultimate/Lucas

Ness is a psychic powered kid from Earthbound. In his series, he must save his home from Porky Minch, who, after being lost to time in Earthbound (the one where Ness is the main character), has come back to conquer the Nowhere Island for its resources. Lucas shares all of his combos with Ness and has numerous ranged combos and strategies in SSBU.

Strategies
Lucas has multiple ranged strategies and combos (the latter option uses PK Thunder in a lot of them) and a few good smash attacks.

The "Earthbound Combo"
This is a simple combo that requires you to be able to spam attacks. First, hit the opponent with a forward tilt, then follow up by spamming PK Fire, then using PK Freeze, and then end with a forward smash. This combo deals a large amount of damage due to the fact that PK Fire does good damage over time and forward smash launches opponents pretty far. This can be used on an opponent who has already been dealt a large amount of damage, as the forward smash will most likely finish them off.

PK Fire
PK Fire does quite a bit of damage over time, and can be pretty useful in all game modes (using it in Home-Run Contest 7 times and then using the bat will most likely cause the sandbag to go 400-500 km at most) and is useful for edgeguarding, as the fire created by it will travel downwards in mid-air.

PK Thunder
PK Thunder is one of the best attacks in the game. It can be used as a dash attack (if you hit yourself with it), a great recovery option (launch yourself with it) or a great finisher. It's one of the most versatile moves in the game and has many different uses. Here is a list of them:


 * Use it for launching


 * Can be used as a recovery move


 * Can be used as a dash attack


 * Can be used on an opponent in mid-air to launch them over the top blast line


 * Can be used in mid-air on your head to turn you into a human meteor. Very useful for edgeguarding

Point is, PK Thunder can be used as a number of things I named and quite a few that I haven't. Lucas's PK Thunder can turn a lot quicker than Ness's, giving Lucas a bit of an advantage over Ness.

Inferno Combo
This is a combo involving Lucas's smash attacks and his PK Fire. First, start by stunning them with PK Thunder, then use PK Fire on them to rack up damage. From there, you can end the combo in two different ways. If they are on the edge, use a down throw and follow up by hitting them with PK Thunder when they try to recover. The other option is to finish them with PK Freeze and then use the forward smash. This will most likely work because the opponent will have been dealt a large amount of damage from the PK Fire.
