Snom
Snom the Generation 8 Ice/Bug Pokemon is here!
Snom is a tricky character that relies on alternate mobility options and wave dashing to get around! Use Snom’s tricky moves to maneuver around your opponents! Hold Attack and Jump during the countdown to display Snom’s attacks on the HUD.
Forward Special is Powder Snow – Summons a cloud that Snom and other players can stand on. Opponents that run under the cloud are forced into a walk and their horizontal speed is reduced as long as they’re not in hitstun. (Tip: Use Fair and Bair to guide opponents under the cloud to combo into other aerials easier)
Up Special is Icy Wind – On the ground Snom summons a wind pillar that shoots players upward. Players get infinite jumps in the pillar and holding down allows players to descend in the pillar. The Pillar significantly increases horizontal speed if an opponent goes through it, even during hitstun.
Down Special is Substitute – Fly upwards leaving a Substitute in your place. If an opponent hits the Substitute they go into Parry Stun and Snom teleports near the Substitute (Tip: Hold in the direction the substitute flies when hit to teleport exactly where the substitute lands). Snom can also hit the substitute and teleport on their own!
Neutral Special is Rest – Snom will gradually heal percent and heal from status effects such as burn or poison but Snom be unable to move! Pressing Special while Resting will make Snom use Snore! Dealing a massive blow to anyone near Snom. Pressing Attack while Resting will make Snom use Sleep Talk! Randomly selecting a grounded attack for Snom to use from their arsenal.
Down Strong is Mirror Coat – The longer Snom charges this attack the longer the Coat lasts. All projectiles will reflect if they fly near Snom.
Down Tilt is Facade – This move gets stronger if Snom is burned or poison or has any other status inflicted on them!
————————— Extra Comments —————————
Snom was made as a way to practice particle and hit effects and less on character animations in between original projects.
I know Snom can stall a lot, I thought it was funny so I left it in.
I know Snom is super slow, Snom has one of the lowest base speeds in all of Pokemon. Wave Dash to get around, Snom is an icicle it only makes sense it can slide around.
That said, expect future Pokemon from me in between bigger works! Comment who you’d like to see, I might add them to the list! And if you enjoyed Snom don’t forget to Like this page!
