[Ehrgeiz] Yoko Move List + alpha

Updated: 28 March 1998
Created: 24 March 1998

Disclaimer: Crude combination of Yoko's moves from four move lists. 8(
Correct me if I'm wrong.

[BTW, Ehrgeiz means "ambition" in German. Konnen Sie mir Geld leihen?]

Convention

G			Guard button
L			Low button
H			High button
S			Special button
90			down, down-forward, forward
180			back, down-back, down, down-forward, forward
(from crouch)		hold G, release G
(step)			hold G, tap stick, neutral
(while crouching)	hold G
(while higher)		Yoko is higher than her enemy

Common Moves

neutral		high block (Note guard effect.)
hold G		low block (Note guard effect.)

H			high attack; or throw axe/knife
H+L			middle attack
L			low attack; or get axe/knife; or drop
			axe/knife
G+H			strong high attack
G+L			strong low attack
G+L+H		throw (Thrown boxes are Unblockable.)
S			special attack (Unblockable.)
stick+Start	taunt

[For 90, 180, and 360 throws, I *guess* the player can: while holding G,
roll stick, then add L+H.]

walk			while holding G, hold stick (any direction)
run			hold stick
jump			tap stick, then tap or hold stick; or G+S;
			how long Yoko stays in the air depends on how
			long the player holds the stick or buttons
throw escape	tap G just as throw hits, when Yoko is
			blinking white
tackle		while running, G+L+H (Unblockable.)
tackle escape	tap G just as tackle hits
dodge missile	hold stick + tap G repeatedly
parry sword	tap G just before sword hits
break fall	tap G after Yoko is knocked down but before
			she lands
rise			after Yoko lands, tap G
roll and rise	after Yoko lands, tap G and hold stick

Story: [Zzz.]

MISCELLANEOUS (Rumours R Us)

	Choose 2P costume. When choosing character, hold up (stick).
	(Confirmed. Yoko's 2P costume is a sailor fuku. (Sukeban Deka? After all,
Minamino *Youko* played one of the Sukeban Deka heroines.))

	Dasher Inoba becomes angry. In two-player games, have a win streak of 20+
games.

	Eye movement. During a victory pose, move the stick to move the
character's eyes.
	(Confirmed.)

	Hidden bosses. In an one-player game, if the player clears the first 8
stages and reaches the 9th stage in less than 6'40", the player fights Tifa
and Cloud of FF7.
	If the player clears the rest of the game in less than 10', the player
fights a third hidden boss.
	(Only Cloud and Tifa confirmed by other Netters. Cloud is renamed
Guardian, and Tifa is renamed Summoner. (BattleTech?))

	Sasuke's smoke bombs. When Sasuke jumps and throws smoke bombs, they hit
high only, and his enemy can crouch under them.

	Time-release characters. After 30 days, Cloud is playable. After 60 days,
Tifa is playable. After 90 days, Django is playable. (Who's Django?) After
120 days, Heihachi is playable.
	(Cloud confirmed by other Netters.)

	Namco fighting game characters I used. (Motto: "Speed is life.")
	Tekken 3: Julia.
	Tekken 2: Roger, Jun, Lei.
	Soul Edge Ver.II: Sophitia, Taki, Hwang, Voldo, Li Long.
