Virtua Fighter 5 (Lion Rafale) By: Alex "Joker" Hall Started on: April 30, 2007 Completed on: September 16, 2007 E-Mail: Sanctuary_Remix@yahoo.com - Well I'll put it simply....I've been working on getting a Virtua Fighter 5 walkthrough up as a means of my "coming out of retirement" kinda deal. Well I'm still hard at work with it, but I figured as much that I should at least put out there some character walkthroughs as well. I was planning on doing this in the first place once I got the full walkthrough up, but I figured what the hell....lets do it now. So with that being said I'm here to give you all this guide on Lion. - As with every other guide that I've wrote, this guide is my own property! I happily made this for all to enjoy and to use, and all that I ask is that if you are planning on using this for your site, then just ask me for permission ok. I'm really easy to get along with and generally don't mind it so long as you ask for my permission first. Don't go thinking "Oh he'll never say ok, lets just rip the guide and post it anyways" because that's a flawed way of thinking. Just give it a shot sometime and you may be surprised! My e-mail box is always open! - A big reminder to everyone out there....if you're looking for updates to this guide, then head on over to www.gamefaqs.com. I write for that site and that site only.....or at least, that's where the guide's origins are. Any update that I do will hit there. I don't really plan on keeping up with how many other hundreds of sites have my guides up for their use and have to go and update it on their site as well, so save yourself some trouble and headache and check my guide out at GameFAQs ok. I really don't want to deal with a million e-mails asking me about updates and info and such when I'm telling you now what to do. * Lion Rafale * = Backstory and Stats = Move Set = Costumes and Clothes Sets = Personal Opinion (User Created Tactics) (Credits) *** Lion Rafale *** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=~=============================================+=+++++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~===============~,,.,,,~:==~~~=+=+===============++++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~==~=~==:,::~=+=:,,,=Z7I$7$=~~================++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=~~~~:~~,.,.,,~?~::,,$OOZ++?7I+=:===========++++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=~,:=+~:,.,::,,,,,,,,,Z?I=?~=~+=~~~~======++++++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=~=~~~::=??+=+==??=::,,~?7++==~~~~~~~::=======++++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=~~~==+???+=:::::,,~7::::I+I?+~~~~+=~:,,~==++=+++=++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=+=~=+?=~~~==III77?+=:,:?:=$ZI=III?~:,:+=:,,========++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~==~=+??=~+??77?~:=:~:::=~,=?7$7I++~~==:::,:=~,:+===++++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=+~==??=~~+?I~++=????======~:I$$7I$?+~+?+=~~,,~~:,==+===+++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=+==+?~=~====?+7ZII$7=+?======I$$7++===:=::,~~~,,::,:++=++++++++ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~==++?=+=~+~~?I7+$7777$I~===I7I=7Z$7?==~,,.,,,:,~~:,,,,.+===++++++ ::::~~~~~~~~~~==+?++=+~=~+==+II$$7I7$III+?Z+?$7$7$$7?=~:,..,,,,,::,.,,.=++++++++ :::::::~~~~~~==??++??++====III$77I7777$ZZZZ77$Z7$777$7I+~...,,,,,,,.,,,.=+=+++=+ :::::::::::~~=?+=??=+===++?I777II?I$$$$ZZZZZ$ZZ$$I?77II?~,...,,,,,,,...,,+=+++== ::::::::::~~=+++??+====???IIIII??I77Z$ZOZZZZZZ$?$7$7$7II?=:,..,,,:,,...,.:++++== :::::::::::=+=+?++==+=+?+??II?+++?7$ZZZZZZZZZZO$$7$777II?I=~,..,..,,,.....+=+=== ::::::::::~==+?+===+==?=+???++=+?+$OZZZZOZZZZZZ7$77$II77I++=:...,.,:,.....==+=== ::::::::~:~=+++======+~~+??+=+=++Z$$$ZZZZZZZZZ$$$7II$7III?~~:,....,,:.....,===== :::::::::~~+?===~+==~~:=+++~=++=I=?+?I77$ZZZZZ$$$7I7I7I$7I+:~,.....,:,.....===== :::::::~:~+?===:=+~~=:~==?~~=+===~::::~==?+77$$77I7II7I7I?7~:~......,~.....:==== ::::::::~=?===:===~+,:~~?::~~~+=~::,,::::~~:~++====++???II7+:~,...,..,,.....==== ::::::::=?===:=++~+~::~+::~~~+~~~:,,,::::::~~~~~=====+++????~:,...,,..,.....==== ::::::,~~=~=~~=+~+~::===,~:~?=~~::,:::::::~~~~~~===+++++??II~,,.......:.....==== :::::::~~~=~~=+~==:~~=~::~~=+~~::::::::::~~~~~====+++++++??I~,,.....,..,....==== ,,,:,::~~~=:=+~===~~+:~,~:===~::::,,:::::~~~=====+++???????I=,,........,....~=== ,,:,,,::~+:~=~=~=~~~+=:,::=+~~:,,,,,,:::~~~~=====++????????I?:,........,....==== ,,,,,:::::~~~=~~=~~=~~,:,:==::,,,,,,,,:~~~=~=====+++++++??+?+~:.............==== ,,,,:,::::~~~~~~~~~=:,,~:~?+::,,,,,,,::::~~~=======+++++++==~~,......:.....,==== ,,,,,,:::::=~:==~=~~~::~::?D8ZI=::,,,:::~~~~==============~~~:,......:,....,==== ,,,,,,::::~~:==~~~=~~:~=~=?I7DN88$=~:::~~==========~=======~::.......:,....:~=== ,,,,,,:,::~I$~==:=~~+~===+7$$$ZZODDO7?+++++=====~~~+?I7$Z88D~,.......,.....:~~== ,,,,,,::~:~ZI~:::~~~+~=??==DOMMNNDZZO8O$???+??I7$ZODDNNNNDO7=,....,.,,.....:~~~= ,,,,,,::::I$:~::~~~~~~=+??=$7$ZD??D7$7II=++?IZ8D88OOZZ$$$7Z?=,...,:,.,.....:==~= ,,,,,,,:::+~?=::~:~~::===+I7$Z7I$8887?+~::~?77ZOZZDD8MNMMMD+~:.,,,:,,,,....:==== ,,,,,,,:~:~I+Z,:,,::::===??II$77II?++=~:,,:=+7$$8O?=O$OODIOI~+,,,:,,,,:...:,==== ,,,,,,,::::++$,,,..,,,~~~+++=++?+==~:,,,,:~++?7I7$Z$ZO$$787+::,,,~,,,,:,.,:~~=== ,,,,,,,:::,,:?,,,..,,,:~~====~~~::,,,,,:,:=??+?III77$$$$$Z+:+=,,,,:~,::..::~~=== .,,,,,:~,~:,,~:.,,,,,,:~~===~~~:::,,::,,,:=?++++????+????I=:+~:,,,~7+I:.:~~=~~== .,,,,,::,:?,,,..,,,,,,:~:==~~~~::::,,:,,,:=?+??+++++====++~~?=~,::=II+,:~======= ,,,,,,,:,:?:,,:,,,,::::::~~~~~~~:::,,:,,,:=+++?++++=====+~???+~::,$=?~,~~~~=~=== ,,,,,,,:,~?I~:~:,,::::::~~~~~~~~::::::,,.,~=++??+++++==+?I?7?+~::=I=~.:~~~~===== ,,,,,,,,::?77?I?,,:::::~~~~~~~~~~~::::,,,,~=++???+++++???II7?+~=,=+::,~~~~~===~~ ,,,,,,,,~~+77I77,,::::~~~~~~~~~===::::::~=+??I?II?++++??I????+~:::~.,:~~~~~~~~~~ ,,,,,,,,:~+77777:,,::::~~~~~======~===~~+III???7I????????????+=,:~,:,~~~~~~~~~~~ ,,,,,,,,::?I7777I,,:::::~~~~~==~===I$??+$77O$I7III???????I???~7~:,,::~~~~~~~~~== ,,,,,,,,::+?7$$77,,,:::::~~~~~~~~~==+?+?I7$$$7IIII??????I??I+=~,,,,:~~~~~~~~~~~~ ,,,,,,,,,~+?7$$$7,,,,::::~~~~~~::::~~=?IIII77II????????IIII+~=:,,,::~~~~~~~~~~~~ ,,,,,,,,,~??I$$$7,,,,:::::~=?+~::::::~~+=+??I?II?I?????????=+~,,:,~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ,,,,,,,,,~??I$$$I,,,::::::~~~=O$777777$$$$$I????I???IIIII?===:.~:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ,,,,,,,,,???I$$$?,,,,:::::~~~~~+++7ZOOOZZOZZZZ$$7I??IIII?=+=:,.:~~~~~~~~~~~~~=== ,,,,,,,,:??+?$$$~,,:::::::~~==~==+==~=+I7$777$I?IIIIIIII+?+=:,::~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~= ,,,,,,,,~+?+?$77+,,:~:::::~~~===+?I777777$$$7IIIIIIIII?++==~,.~~~~~~~~~~~~~===~= +++?+?I+??I+?777?,,,:~::::~~~==++?7$ZZZZZZZ$77777IIII?=,+==,,.+=+==~~~~~=~~==~== ??=+===~+?I+?77I+,,,:~~~::~~~~~=++??II77$$$$$7777I7I?~.:?+~,..I$$$ZZ$$7I?+=~~~== ~~::::=+???+??7+~:,::~=~~~:~~~~~~===+???II777777777?=,.+~=:,..788OOZOO8OZZ777+~~ :,,~$NO8++I????~:+:::~~~~~=~~~~=~====+???III77777I7?~.:+=:,,,,ZNMNNND88O8OOZ$77? ~IONN8Z????=?++:,~~::~=~~~~=+==++++???IIIII77777$$7+:,~,~....:DNNNNNNN88888OOZ$?

He had not been able to win the tournament, but was satisfied with his performance and fighting. His father congratulated him as well, and it seemed that his life would continue without incident. But one day, Lion stumbled on the documents that seemed to link his father's company to J6. Lion threw himself into his training, trying to forget his suspicions. Just when he could no longer stand to keep quiet, an invitation arrived for the Fifth World Fighting Tournament. Somewhat bothered by the timing of the invitation arrival, Lion decides to enter the tournament, in part to learn about his father's involvement with J6. - Stats - Nationality - French Birthday - 12/24/1979 Hobby - Skateboarding Height - 180 cm (5'11) Weight - 79 kg (175 lbs) Measurements - 90/84/88 Blood Type - AB Occupation - Student Fighting Style - Tourou-Ken Voice Actor - N/A First Game - Virtua Fighter 2 - Move Set - - Now it's time to learn how to use Lion properly.

Personal Opinion - - Ok....here's basically my take on Lion: Well if you're the type that loves to cheese your way out of matches, then look no further for your character. Lion offers up some of the sneakiest moves that I've ever seen from a fighting character in any game. First off you have a blazing speed advantage with him, which works extremely well with the kind of moves that you'll be performing with him. Secondly he has a tight game of making you guess where he'll strike. What sometimes may look like he's about to go for a high attack to the head, it turns out that he is really aiming for your legs with a low attack. It's more annoying trying to figure out how to put up a solid defense against this guy, than it is trying to learn how to use him. Lion can be summed up as a middle tier character that you'd want to use. Give yourself some time to learn alittle bit of the game, and get a feel for it before moving on to Lion. This is because his style, while relatively simple in theory, requires you to set up opponents more so for deep combo punishment rather than going on blitz offensives. Now you can easily enough go for blitz's with Lion, but the majority of them will be low attacks that have great range. The down side you ask? Well people will eventually catch on to the low game that you're playing and then you're screwed if you don't have anything else that you can do in terms of being flexible with him. Lion does offer up a nice set countering that does help him to lead into his better combos and big damage pay outs, but once again....it's all a matter of being patient with him. It can be easy to get overly excited with Lion since his character is all about speed and quick attacks, making yourself cocky enough to want to lash out alot at opponents. But this is a newb's mistake. Like I said, Lion is best handled by players after they've put some time into the game to learn it alittle bit and get a feel for things. If you can master using Lion to luring opponents to doing what you want them to do when you want them to do it, then people will soon start to hate you like it isn't even funny. Use his low attacks sparringly to say the least so you don't show a pattern that your opponents can use against you. Lion isn't built to take a huge beating ya know! All in all though, if you want to use a smart alecky, fast-paced, stylish, and dangerous character, then you've got that and more in Lion! (User Character Tactics) Ahhhh....the final chapter of this glorious guide of mine....to think I finally made it this far. This part though isn't written entirely by me... This part is written by all of you! That's right....no matter what I say or do to tell you things about characters or explaining their ins and outs, everyone has their own style and their own way doing things with each character. In that respect I give to all of you this section. E-mail in your tips, tricks, and fighting techs that you find to be useful for the given character in the given situation you're in. The only way this section can get bigger, is by all of you, so flood my e-mail box ok! I know it's at the top, but for convienence my e-mail is: sanctuary_remix@yahoo.com I will give full credit to you that send in your tips and tricks, so be a pal and help out those around you by contributing to this guide! * Lion * (Credits) - First and foremost I give credit to Sega for coming out with one kick ass fighter. I've never been so jaw dropped before by a fighting game with all that it shows off. I'm still going strong with it, so I think I'm now turning into a Virtua Fighter fan! Way to go Sega, by making an addictive game like this! - Secondly I'd like to give creds to all of those out there that asked for me to come back and make more walkthroughs. You have no clue how much I missed doing these, and just because I'm in the Marines, doesn't mean I have to retire from walkthrough writing! Thank you for all the support and e-mails that all of you have sent telling me how good my past walkthroughs were and that you all wanted to see more. Without the support, I think the drive and the love for walkthrough writing would of left me a long time ago. - If there's anything that you wish to add or correct in my walkthrough, then by all means, shoot me an e-mail at sanctuary_remix@yahoo.com. I'll take your comments and concerns seriously and get back to you as fast as I can. You will be given the proper credit as well for contributing to my guide. Thanks again, and I'll sees yas all later! Alex "Joker" Hall Sanctuary Remix
