Knack

Knack is a mysterious creature with unique abilities.

Biography
THE CREATURE CREATED BY RELICS OF THE ANCIENT PAST!

When Doctor Vargas stumbled into a temple he thought was going to be empty like all the others, he didn't expect to stumble upon a curious orb of ancient design. After years of experiments and development, that curious orb became his greatest creation: Knack. His body is composed of ancient relics suspended in a humanoid figure, but this accumulation of relics can grow as he collects them in his adventures, growing him to gigantic sizes. He was assigned to aid humanity in fighting the Goblin forces, led by the dreaded Gundahar.

THE LEGACY OF KNACK
 * Knack

Arcade
Opening:

Knack's story opens as he is just playing around with Lucas at the garden. The Doctor approaches them telling Knack that there is new trouble arising and he needs Knack to see what's it about. Knack goes off with The Doctor and Lucas waving good-bye and good luck.

"Knack? Knack! Come on, over here, I've got great news. Apparently, there's a strong source of energy gathering a lot of deadly weird creatures. Oh you'd better see them for yourself. I've prepared an auto-piloted plain that'll take you to the place. I want you to get there and check out what this gathering is about and if it is any harm to mankind. (Knack nods and goes) Farewell, Knack! Good luck - hope to see you soon!"  - The Doctor

Rival: Crash Bandicoot

Reason: Knack still searches for the source of energy when he suddenly encounters Crash and Aku Aku. Because of Crash`s appearance he thought he was one of Gundahar`s minions. When Knack says he should go away Crash says nothing. Instead Aku Aku says that he`s not going away.

Connection: Both Crash and Knack hold visual similarities. Also, it pits two completely different generations against each other. A classic hero from the PS1 era vs a new hero from the PS4 era.

Ending:

Returning home safe and sound and with another victory on his shoulders, Knack is welcomed back by Dr. Vargas and Lucas who ask him how the battles went and who that source of energy was. But Knack says that it was no problem but surpassed everything he's ever seen as of now.

''"Oh, Knack? Didn't expect you to be back so soon. So, how did the battles went? Did you find out what that source of energy was or those warriors?" - The Doctor''

''"I'm not sure what it was but it's defeated. And those warriors? Their battling style even surpasses their weird looks." - Knack''

Gameplay
As far as his attacks, Knack's are pretty basic. Where Knack becomes different from the other opponents is the way that his Super Meter affects him, increasing his attack power. 
 * One-Two-Punch! - [[File:Btn_square.png]] [[File:Btn_square.png]] [[File:Btn_square.png]] - Knack punches forward with the first press of [[File:Btn_square.png]], uses his other hand to throw a hook with the next, and finishes with a spinning backhand with the last.
 * Dash Swipe - [[File:Playstation-Lstick-Left.png]] or [[File:Playstation-Lstick-Right.png]] [[File:Btn_square.png]] - Knack dashes forward, ending with a spin and powerful swipe. Holding [[File:Btn_square.png]] delays the swipe, making the dash travel further.
