Scratch Cat

Start Project
A Scratch Project window will pop up, and a cursor hits the green flag, which unfreezes Scratch Cat and causes him to pop out.

Playstyle
Scratch is an online programming language where people can make projects and share them publicly for users to interact with. However, Scratch has a lot of scripts and functions that are not easy to get used to and are hard to master. In Aureus, Scratch Cat has a complex moveset that involves a huge amount of control over the battlefield and opponents, but does suffer from being a lightweight. While his stats are lacking and his moves being hard to master, they can be very rewarding in battle.

Broadcasting
Scratch Cat will throw forward a broadcasting block forward. Opponents hit by the block will become "Remixers". This is where the Remix Meter comes in. Most Specials used by Remixers will fill up the Remix Meter by one bar, but some moves or variations of moves will fill the meter by 2 bars. The meter has no effect on Scratch's standards, but it will be fully depleted if he is KOed. Holding down the Special button will pull up an interface that looks similar and controls like Shulk's Monado Arts. Letting go of the Special button when on an option will summon a broadcast block that Scratch Cat will send forwards. These include:


 * Motion Script: The opponent is forced to take five steps backwards.
 * Sound Script: Causes an opponent to dance for two seconds.
 * Looks Script: This will pop opponents upwards and change their costumes.
 * Control Script: This causes an opponent to fall to the ground.

The scripts can be stored for future use by shielding.

Backpack
Scratch Cat will place down a backpack in front of him. Opponents can walk by the backpack without being harmed in any way. If they try to attack the backpack using projectiles, however, they will be absorbed by the bag. This will also fill the Remix Meter depending if the opponent is a Remixer or not. If there are traps or items near the bag, then they will be sucked in and kept captive. Pressing Side B releases the traps/items, though they can cause damage to yourself and other opponents. By pressing Side B near the backpack with a trap inside, you can wear it. Wearing the backpack increases your defense but also your weight. If the Neutral Special is used on the bag, it will be absorbed for future use. If opponents try to approach the bag during this, the script will activate. The bag will sustain 20% of damage. After this, everything inside the bag will fall out before the bag fades away.

 Inspiration : Scratch's Backpack feature.

Make It Fly!
Scratch Cat will fly upward in a chosen direction, and then be put into a freefall. Pressing B while flying will have Scratch Cat fly forwards, giving a horizontal recovery. This can also be used to grab items such as your backpack. You can use Aerials in between flight to perform combo attacks.

 Inspiration : Scratch's "Make It Fly Tutorial", which is heavily based on The Powerpuff Girls Reboot.

Remixing
This is where the Remix Meter comes into play. Holding Down B will have Scrach Cat create a "crappy clone" of a Remixer. The clone in question will mindlessly wander onstage and use its only attack if it encounters opponents. The more bars used to create the clone and the longer you hold down B, the higher the health and time onstage. You can also use scripts on the clones for future use.

 Inspiration : Scratch MIT's remixing demonstration, showing a large amount of Remixes.

LET'S GET SCRATCHING!
Scratch Cat will leap upwards offstage. In the FS, you now control a pencil instead of Scratch Cat. You can move the pencil wherever you want and it can hit opponents in its path. Pressing A/B will draw a line which acts as a platform and can trap opponents drawn over. The platforms cannot be destroyed, but can be used by opponents. Multiple flying cats will come in and hit opponents at random. After fifteen seconds are up, the opponent/opponents are dealt the accumulated amount of damage taken (Pencil - 5%, Flying Cats - 15%, Falling Off Stage - 40%). If anyone falls offstage during the FS, they will simply be warped back onstage.

KO Sounds
Scratch Cat doesn't have KO Sounds.

Taunts

 * Side: SC will meow (with a speech bubble popping up labeled "Meow!") at opponents.
 * Up: SC will pull up a map, look at it, then quickly put it away.
 * Down: SC will rapidly shift colors, then turn back to normal.

Cheesy Puffs

Victory Options

 * 1: SC will jump to the air happily, while a streamer sound plays in the background.
 * 2: SC will fly from left to right with multiple flying tacos following behind him.
 * 3: SC dances to the song "Celebrate" by Kool & The Gang.

Lose Pose
