Overview

With a wide range of support moves and an extremely powerful traits, Kinu easily fits onto almost any team that is not glass-cannon oriented. Protector allows Kinu to provide permanent value simply by pivoting in, and once it hits the field it has multiple support options to help its partner or hinder the enemy. Benefactor allows some stall teams to become unkillable. This means that Kinu can be built fast, bulky, or surprisingly hard hitting thanks to its versatile technique pool and multiple viable Gear choices.

(1.3 DUKE'S NOTES - YEAH THIS THING STILL SLAPS, RESIN AND BETA IS GREAT COVERAGE, HYPNO AND TURBO ARE GREAT UTILITY. CAN DO BENEFACTOR INSTEAD OF PROTECTOR FOR MORE HEALING.)

Kinu is the face of supportive tems, having great healing, sleep, and ways to boost speed, defense, and special defense. While Protector, Revitalize, and Sacrifice have all seen their power levels decreased, Kinu is still a great addition to almost any team.

This Kinu TV spread gives it decent bulk and enough speed to use Revitalize, Hypnosis, and Sacrifice before its ally takes a heavy hit, Protector helps out as well, and Beta Burst can handle melee and neutral tems at times. Kinu has a lot of moves that can legitimately see play: Lifeful Sap, Resin Trap, Turbo Choreography, and Lullaby. Adjust your Kinu's bulk, damage, and speed to get the most out of those moves depending on what your team needs.
