His Finale move is the Mario Finale which comes from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Mario shoots a large blast of fire forward, damaging everyone in its path.
Sonic the Hedgehog
Sonic the Hedgehog
Even though his more recent games have been piles of crap, Sonic is still the speedy, kind-hearted character most of us know and love. His primary forms of attack include the Spin Dash, Boost, and Homing Attack abilities as opposed to swords, a werewolf form, a genie, or little aliens.
Sonic's Finale move is Super Sonic. Sonic collects 50 rings and uses the Chaos Emeralds to transform into his golden Super Sonic form. In this form, Sonic is able to fire Chaos Spears at opponents and is faster and invincible. This form lasts for 30 glorious seconds before Sonic runs out of rings and returns to his original state.
A brash imp who plays a video game. Can't get much more than he asks for, can he? Kirbopher is a swordfighter with a few tricks up his sleeve like being able to become the mysterious Zetto and being able to manipulate Ki in that form.
Kirbopher/Zetto's Finale move is Dragon Bug. Zetto summons the Dragon Bug, which fires a large beam of energy that sweeps the stage.
Hatty Hattington
BattleBlock Theater
Hatty Hattington is the friendliest and most sinister guy around, along with being the walking definition of a handsome gentleman. Most of Hatty's moves come from the weapons that both his minions (which are cats) and the player were able to use in his home game, BattleBlock Theater.
Hatty's Finale move is Furbottom's Fury, which has him unleashing a large green laser from his spooky, yet fashionable hat. The laser only goes upward, but it can be rotated by pressing the left and right buttons on the D-Pad.

Apollo Robbins
Brain Games
Better known as the host of the television show Brain Games, Apollo Robbins is an illusionist who can literally plays mind games with his opponents. He can pickpocket unsuspecting civilians and hey...come back with my wallet!! I'll come back to this later. Description Guy, away!
Apollo's Finale move is unknown at this time.
Maxwell
Scribblenauts
Despite his small stature, Maxwell has a lot of fighting potential. That green notebook in his hand allows him to write in various objects like angel wings and rifles to help him fight. Anything he writes pops into existence! Maxwell also has some weak physical attacks.
Maxwell's Finale move is Post 217. Maxwell writes the word and numbers into his notebook and then a picture of him riding a dinosaur or something appears next to him. He interacts with it, causing it to beep and then explode. The explosion is about as large as a Smart Bomb explosion in the Super Smash Bros. series.

Heavy
Team Fortress 2
Heavy is like a hibernating bear. Disturb him and he comes running with his trusty Minigun Sasha and a few other weapons. Okay, maybe he's not completely like a bear, but he is a strong character.
Heavy's Finale move is Cry Some More. Heavy's fellow teammate - the Medic - uses his Medi Gun to Ubercharge Heavy, giving him invulnerability to all attacks, an increased shield, and more power for his attacks....for 30 seconds. After that, a Spy backstabs the Medic, leaving Heavy without the health regeneration.
Sans
Undertale
Sans is one of the two skeleton brothers, the other being Papyrus, and has a scientific background. Not that that is important or anything, as he uses his Gaster Blasters and various other powers to fight.
Sans's Finale move is GET DUNKED ON, which begins with Sans rushing toward a random opponent. He then picks them up and throws them through a basketball hoop as they are encased in flames.

Inori Aizawa
Internet Explorer
Definitely a strange yet unique fighter, Inori is the human personification of....Internet Explorer. Not sure what that indicates but she can use several weapons and objects from the browser she represents to attack opponents. Inori also has a tabbing system, which allows her to copy herself and thusly dealing more damage to enemies.
Inori's Finale move is unknown at this time.
Scott Pilgrim
Scott Pilgrim
Scott Pilgrim, by definition, is the most awesome 24-year old Canadian you will ever meet. He took on 6 guys and a roller-skating chick just to be in love with someone from New York. Scott wields two swords and has plenty of fighting game references to use in his moves.
Scott's Finale move is Multiplayer Mode. His girlfriend, Ramona Flowers, appears wielding one of his swords and then the two cross blades in a slashing motion.

Angry Birds
Nobody knows the true reason of why this bird is so pissed of, but I guess he can fight. Do I have the correct memo? Anyways, Red can launch himself using a slingshot and also use various items from several Angry Birds spin-offs and the power-ups from Angry Birds 2.
Red's Finale move is Heroic Strike, originating from Angry Birds Epic. Red targets the enemy/enemies with the most remaining health and then delivers a strong slash that depletes a good majority of their health.
