Pluto

Pluto was designed for jungle combat, and as his appearance suggests, he has very quick reflexes and is agile like a feline. Dr. Wily later used him as the inspiration for Slash Man's design. His main weapon is the Break Dash, which allows him to dash at supersonic speed over short distances and temporarily become immune to damage while doing so. He can also slash enemies up close with the claws on his knuckles, cling onto walls, and fire two types of energy shots from his hands: shockwave/fireball-type projectiles and a bigger homing shot.

Despite his appearance, Pluto dislikes the cold. He enjoys taking care of his claws with regular manicures and sometimes tries his hand at nail art as well, but he is somewhat vain and gets annoyed when his claws get damaged in combat, and he dislikes pedicures due to his feet not having nails. He does not get along with Mercury, one possible reason being because he is weak to Mercury's weapon, the Grab Buster.

Overview
General breakdowns of passive abilities, gimmicks, and their movement + health.

Main
Break Shot

Break Buster fires multiple orbs quite quickly. However, they disappear after a short distance, so you cannot use it for long range attacks.

Alt
Break Dash

Break Dash is a controllable dash attack that rips through enemies. Holding altfire after the attack is done will cause you to perform the Reload attack, Fury Swipes, until you let go. Can be used twice in the air.

Item
Meow

Pluto Meows. No, it doesn't do anything, but you can trick people with it.

Reload
Fury Swipes

Fury Swipes is basically Slash Claw.
