Well I meant to post this one before but never got around to it until now.

So, first off, since Raiden kept breaking for people I've completely cleared his moveset. It's sad, but he's been reuploaded with a completely default set except for signatures / finishers and taunts. He shouldn't break on download now, but you'll have to build him an appropriate moveset yourselves.
If he does break on download, please let me know ASAP so I can clear out everything and try one last time!
Now, since I'm never happy unless I have a bunch of CAWs with the same or similar names (Caim, Kain, and Kane; Yuri and Yuri; Zero and Zero), I give you Raiden!

Damn that's a good Raiden...are you the one responsible for making that awesome Johnny Cage?
Also, that is a horrifying...but surprisingly good Strong Mad + The Cheat.
I... just don't know what to say with that Strong Mad/Cheat CAW. It's definitely memorable and I have to give you kudos for finding a way to remove a characters head but not make it creepy. That Meta knight from a while ago was a good example of the creepiness you managed to avoid.
Well at the Rock would say...FINALLLY, THE RECOOME HAS COME BACK TO THE VGCW FORUM!
Warning, entrance was changed in order to get him uploaded cause I have to download the season pass, regardless of the fact I downloading their DLC...thanks THQ...

Reposting these, but I figure it might help if I give Team Flare Grunt and Lysandre a pitch, similar to what BRYN requires when you submit a character to him.
Reference
Team Flare Grunt Pitch
A very silly choice for a member of the VGCW roster. But Team Flare Grunt manages to be one of the more hilarious Pokemon grunts in the series.
First of all, the grunts are all obsessed about style and beauty. Lysandre's trying to destroy the whole damn world, but these guys are running around and making dumb fucking poses and saying some of the most hilarious and outrageous things you'll ever hear in your life. Granted, that's what Lysandre TELLS them to believe in, and they are aware of the more nefarious things that Lysandre plans, but the fact that they look like idiots but follow an evil Frenchman just makes them more comical.
There's one particular Flare Grunt who you beat THREE times over the course of the game, and every time he'll say "When I lose, I go out in style!" The grunts are totally aware that they're complete jobbers, but they don't care because they've got SWAG FOR DAYS. And instead of hanging out in some nefarious hidden base, they hide in a CAFE that holds an entrance TO said secret base! And they give away the entrance to you on complete accident! Reminder that this is one of the MOST deadly villains in Pokemon. They are failures in every sense of the word, but are the most amusing (and dangerous) failures of all time.
WHAT GRUNT COULD DO: Team Flare Grunt could be attacking people constantly in backstage brawls, and either losing horribly each time or winning. This makes sense since he's a random encounter, but also fits in with the "gang" ideal of Team Flare. And if not, the Ric Flair jokes are plentiful and he's hilarious to watch in combat.
Reference
Lysandre Pitch
Lysandre, like I was elaborating on before, is one of the more threatening gang villains in the Pokemon series. He holds a device that can make everything immortal and was holding X/Y's legendary Pokemon in his clutches. The man wants to make a change for the better because of all the flaws and stupidity he sees in humanity, but he's doing it by wiping everyone else out. Pokemon AND humans, that is.
Lysandre is a badass. Just look at his fight intro:
He just stands there and opens his eyes, and just casually tosses out a pokeball. No flashy bullshit; he means business. That dark and blaring remix of the Flare Grunt encounter, compiled with his beliefs, just make him a really menacing threat. If you need anyone to be the Kane to Ganon's Undertaker, look no further.
WHAT LYSANDRE COULD DO: Lysandre is a perfect monster heel. He's so diabolical that he can generate interesting discussion in chat, but he also looks human and isn't a completely obvious "monster" hell, if you see what I'm getting at. People can point to Ganon and Illidan and go, "Oh, that guy's an evil giant!" but Lysandre is just a very large and tall human. I can almost assure you that he wouldn't be booed just because he looks like another heel.
And finally, as a tag team:
"Team Flare" Tag Team Pitch
You can use Team Flare in two various different ways:
1. Grunt as Manager/Fighter, with Lysandre as the true threat. It would make sense for Lysandre's underlings to make sure he's only fighting the strongest and worthiest opponents while also causing trouble themselves.
2. Vice Versa: Lysandre's the manager, with Grunt as his fighter. Lysandre's badass enough to handle fights himself, but this would make a bit more sense and also be good to fit into plot. A comical jobber like Team Flare Grunt doesn't pose a threat to anyone, but he's a perfect distraction while Lysandre tries to reach his true goals of eliminating the unbeautiful in backstage matches.
Team Flare would become an AWESOME enemy to put Red back in the spotlight, or for Gary to sick Illidan on. Lysandre, being a leader of a large organization, could also easily feud with Gabe and Jensen as he tries to change VGCW into his own ideals. A strong supergenius who hates stupidity versus a ditzy genius who IS stupidity itself. Not to mention that Grunt could be giving Jensen a headache by constantly bothering him and trying to get him to betray Gabe and join Team Flare. Not to mention that they just add a certain FLAIR that other Pokemon villains couldn't add.
Jack is the name of a series of robots that are upgraded in each main installment in the Tekken series of fighting games. At the completion of the 5th King of Iron Fist Tournament, Jack 5 was upgraded to Jack-6, made with 10 times the power, he was entered into the King of Iron Fist Tournament 6.
I think he'd work pretty well in VGCW, he's a robot so he could easily work in any position, for example, a 'replacement' or help for the disciplinary committee, or a bodyguard, or sent in to VGCW to reek havoc. He also fits as a Tekken Representative now that Kazuya's gone.
EDIT: Gonna be editing this with a few more things over the next couple of days with hopefully an unsteady video as well
