Robert E.O. Speedwagon, a major ally in ''Phantom Blood'', the first part of ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'', is a "stance-switch" style character who can call between two companions in order to adapt to the situation at hand.

On the other hand, when accompanied by The Asian, Speedwagon's game plan is centered around pestering the opponent in neutral. | |||

Ogre Street
Speedwagon possesses his own unique style in the form of "Ogre Street". By pressing the Style button, Speedwagon can switch his companion to either Tattoo or the Kempo Fighter (referred to as The Asian in-game); most of Speedwagon's special moves change depending on which companion is out (rounds start with Tattoo). Additionally, Speedwagon can use 0.5 HH Gauge to swap between the two in a combo with each version of 6H.
As they act separately from him, Tattoo and the Kempo Fighter will continue performing their respective moves even if Speedwagon is attacked; inversely, they themselves can be struck by the opponent directly to interrupt their moves, even if Speedwagon himself isn't hit. As an additional rule, any move involving either of the two would not be possible if they're a set distance away from Speedwagon, needing to move to his back in order to be used again.
