Story
Pentagon is an angel-winged, high-flying Justice Choujin from California, USA. Aside from his obvious striking appearance, he is known for having the greatest jumping power in the Choujin community (for what that's worth), and for being popular with the ladies. In his first appearance, Pentagon primarily fights with his acrobatic aerial techniques, which ultimately ended with him getting gored by Warsman's Bear Claws. He got better somehow, and returned for the Dream Choujin Tag Tournament along with his cousin Black Hole, as the "4D Killer Combo". As part of his 4D wrestling style, Pentagon is now able to swap places with his opponent instantaneously, and he is can literally stop time with the (appropriately named) Stop the Time technique. Why he did not make use of these moves in his earlier bout was not particularly explained.
Pentagon's favorite food is hamburgers. This is deemed important enough info to be mentioned both in his personal bio, as well as in the form of a remark in his image song.
Gameplay
After a significant fall from grace from the first Kinnikuman Muscle Grand Prix, Pentagon now epitomizes the "fragile speedster" or "pixie" character archetype, with buttons that are fast, long-ranged, and with built-in movement. All these combined allows Pentagon to play a fast-paced neutral where (often with the help of meter,) Pentagon can convert stray hits into full juggles. As an icing on the cake, Pentagon has his Stop the Time (421A+S) super, a unique counter super that freezes the opponent on successful counter, allowing Pentagon to do unique time-stop combos for potentially over 70% damage in optimal conditions.
The big trade-off to this is Pentagon does well below-average damage; his damage rating of 11 is tied for lowest in the game, to the point that his optimal situation combos are frequently out-damaged by the average character's day 1 juggles. Exacerbating this problem is Pentagon's lack of a special throw to easily meter dump for damage, meaning he has to settle for his markedly inferior hitgrabs. On a different negative note, Pentagon's frame data leaves quite a lot to be desired, with several of his otherwise best pokes being quite unsafe; this gives his neutral game a significant asterisk, where a poorly timed or spaced poke, and/or a flubbed block/whiff punish, can lead to Pentagon being punished harshly in-turn.
