Hello once again! Well, some mistakes were found and some people asked for a different type of format so I decided to correct the problems and make two types of faqs; one with ascii directions and one with D,DF,F style directions. If there is anything that you would like changed then feel free to e-mail me. Thanks again to everyone who helped me. Enjoy! oh, I have seen people say that the motion for Sophia's Laugh taunt is incorrect. Hmm, I can seem to do it; Does anyone have a different motion for it?
The special moves are listed with ascii directions which represent one of the eight directions on the pad.

Super moves are special moves that can be done at any time but can be a pain to pull off. Most are worth the effort and they look cool! Attacks in ( ) mean that you must hit both attack buttons listed at the same time.
Desperation moves are moves that can only be done when your energy bar is flashing red. These can drastically change the outcome of a match. They are easy to do and can take away alot of energy. Another way of doing them is to hit the two right top buttons simultaneously.

To fight Sho who is the games real last boss, you must go through the game without using a continue and you must be on NORMAL difficulty or harder. Sho has the moves of Kayin and Eiji and then some. You will receive the games real endings by beating Sho.
When you beat the game on a difficulty below NORMAL, you will only fight Gaia. If you beat Gaia, you will recieve a desperation move. If you beat the game on a difficulty of NORMAL or harder and reach Sho by not using any continues, and beat him, you will recieve a super move. It is alright to continue when fighting against Sho.
This list was not compiled by me alone. Alot of people are helping me. A BIG thanks to those who did. Please send me your e-mail address so I can reinclude it again. Unfortunately this copy I found after I deleted my original (oops) had the credits taken out by someone.
