Move name: Raging Demoness
Combatant: Violent Lin - https://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/f215aebe2e421b705dbf815f7ab8a52c
Description: Literally just Akuma's Shun Goku Satsu. Subtlety clearly isn't my forte, considering vanilla Lin's is currently the most boring one on the list, so here we are.
6.2
Fighting style: Judo
Move name: Judo fuck yourself
Combatant: Lin Yin - https://youtube.com/shorts/bHEn2z1J3Fc
Description: Ended up giving vanilla Lin (vanilina) judo since Betty stole her thunder. Tomoe nage into one of Abel's from SF4. Looked more interesting if she locked a limb so snapped his wanking arm for good measure.

Move name: (n/a)
Combatant: Betty T. Baseball Bitch - https://53xy83457.newgrounds.com/news/post/1272506

8
Fighting style: MMA
Move name: Pound Town
Combatant: Mad Nadia - https://youtube.com/shorts/r_da4UgLb9U

9
Fighting style: Lucha Libre
Move name: Pain Bow
Combatant: La Tormenta (The Storm) - https://www.newgrounds.com/dump/item/86988bfdac2b822612762b257c79849d
Description: Jumping death valley driver, probably with an arc to match the name. Or I'll rename it to pain drop, whatever. UPDATE: Might do an arcing frankensteiner instead and save the above for our next wrestler if I screw her's up.

Fighting style: Kickboxing
Move name: Fear Circus
Combatant: JD - https://53xy83457.newgrounds.com/news/post/1438244
Description: I'll maybe just do her (reverse) namesake's dread carnival finishing with one of his multi-hit uppercuts. Resulted in a completely unfitting move name but let's leave it and see what direction it sends people in (if they take the challenge from there without reading this of course).
12
Fighting style: Taekwondo

14
Fighting style: Ballet
Move name: Frère Jackass
Combatant: Helena Gaultier - https://youtube.com/shorts/spdwF4kg9oM
Description: Combo of ballet looking kicks. Maybe she lands on them and pirouettes on their face or something.

Combatant: Waddles - https://youtube.com/shorts/SBQq9CWUIxE
Description: She takes out a gun and shoots the fuck out of the opponent.

27
Fighting style: I don't know, summons
Move name: Sydney Shark
Combatant: Nicky Taylor - https://youtube.com/shorts/k4TwnyTdf78

28
Fighting style: Halloween horror
Move name: Vine Boom
Combatant: Pumpkin Batch - https://youtube.com/shorts/B7-wT-Wm0dQ
Description: Launches vines towards the opponent which tangle them and drag them into the ground. They then get launched back up with an explosion of hellfire.
29
Fighting style: Moth style
Move name: Moth Diver
Combatant: Mothy - https://www.newgrounds.com/art/view/confusedsnowman/moth-girl-oc-belongs-to-53xy83457
Description: Thought of something more unique. She either knocks the opponent over before flying high into the air or takes them along for the ride before dropping them. From a Mothy's eye view she moves her foot over the distant adversary, as if stepping on a pesky bug, before dive bombing down on top of them.
(Previously: Can't remember if I've even drawn her yet but would like to think of something for her, she's cute. Grab, fly into air, piledriver or something.)
30
Fighting style: Cheap SNK final boss

BONUS
Fighting style: Dead end job
Move name: Apex Trigger
Combatant: (n/a)
Description: Meant to do something with this sooner but might as well include it here. Recently found out there's an accounting software used in my office called Apex Trigger! Why's it named after a limit break from Final Fantasy!? Anyway, I was going to create a character, probably a cute lady in business attire, and give them an inappropriately over the top finisher to match the name.
