Introduction

The sneaky sneakster is up to no good as usual, and it plays no fair games! With 4 Scraggies by his side and a rather copius amount of items, Scrafty and his arsenal is a force to be reckoned with!

He loves items! And good thing he has good meter options to go along with it! From removing one meter from the opponent, a mid screen command grab super and even more items, Scrafty is not lacking on the meter front! Of course, he wouldn't be a gang leader without close combat! His combos, whilst incredibly complex to pull off, can be absolutely devastating to the opponent!

However - for all his strengths, complex is the one thing Scrafty absolutely is - compared to the rest of the cast, Scrafty mains are going to have to try a little harder for that KO.

Overall -wha- AAAaaaahhhhhhh!

Scrafty here. As I always like to say - 4 Scraggies a day keeps the Blaziken away, perfect for combos! Overall, I make a pretty good deal, don't I? Try me out! And if you resist, I have four burly Scraggies at the door...
