Bayonetta is one of the last of the near-extinct Umbra Witches clan. She's a master of the Bullet Arts and can use her hair as a conduit to bring forth Infernal Demons. She brings all these skills and more to Smash, where she'll unleash additional damage if you hold the attack button. Damage and distract your foes with this move!

Bayonetta (Alt.)
If you use Bayonetta's side special in midair, she'll do a diagonal kick upward that goes through platforms. If you press down just before doing the move, it'll turn into a downward attack! Plus, if you hit an enemy in midair, you can use the attack again before you hit the ground—great for combos and recoveries!
Bayonetta (Original)
This Umbra Witch awakens after hundreds of years without any memories of her past life. Usually Bayonetta spends her days pretending to be a nun to lure out angels, until a witch with the same powers as her starts to slowly bring her memories back. She ends up embroiled in a battle to save the world!

Bayonetta was a witch that lost her memory. Her real name is Cereza. She uses her arms and legs to wield four guns, and has mastered the Bullet Arts fighting style.
Bayonetta alternates which guns she fires each time you use this move. Keep hitting the button while she's firing to let off more shots.
Hold down the button to unleash more powerful Charge Bullets. Only the first four shots are boosted; the follow-up shots won't be affected.
Performs a low, sliding kick. Hold down the button to get in a few gunshots, and then end with a flip attack for good measure.
If you land a hit with After Burner Kick, you'll have a one-second window to use the kick again. This allows you to travel long distances and combo opponents.
Tilt the control stick down immediately before or after using After Burner Kick to make the move go diagonally down.
This versatile move is great for combos or recovery! Do a midair jump after using the move and you can get in a sneaky extra Witch Twist.
The angle foes are launched at changes between the first and second Witch Twists. Adjust your tactics to the situation to get the best combos.
A successful counter will cause time to slow down. The more damage the opponent has, the longer time will slow down for.
A clock will appear over an enemy to tell you how much Witch Time is left. Try to get your attacks in before the clock counts down!
Witch Time won't last long if you keep using it against every single attack. Keep it in reserve for when you really need it!
If you can counter the opponent's projectile, you can slow the opponent down if you're not too far away from them.
For Bayonetta's Final Smash, she enters Witch Time. If you fill up the Climax Gauge by attacking opponents, you can summon Gomorrah. The Climax Gauge has a time limit, so don't dilly dally.
The Climax Gauge stays around even after Gomorrah is summoned. If you press attack and light up all eight symbols, you'll deal more damage. If the opponent has over 100% damage, they'll be KO'd.
Keep pressing the button and Bayonetta will do a three-kick attack. The last kick launches foes, so go for a quick midair attack right after!
This move covers a big area above Bayonetta, and it also hits opponents in front of her. Like many other tilt attacks, it's a great setup for a follow-up attack.
Bayonetta quickly sweeps enemies off their feet and will shoot ahead and behind if you hold the button. The guns firing ahead deal more damage.
Summon the crushing foot of a demon to slam down with a meteor effect, particularly effective in preventing foes from recovering from falls or climbing up edges.
Keep pressing the button for three shots in the air. Perfect for foes trying to recover. Or hold the button to pile on the pressure with a hail of bullets!
Bayonetta drops straight down into a split kick. She'll constantly deal damage as she drops, and her foot has a meteor effect.
For Bayonetta's forward throw, she borrows Akira's infamous move from the Virtua Fighter series. When Bayonetta performs this move, she sometimes delivers his catchphrase along with it.
Keep the button held down after any normal attack (and some specials) to fire your guns.
Even if an attack misses, you can still hold the button and get a few shots in. You can even steal a KO by hitting a launched foe on their way out! Cheeky.
If Bayonetta is hit during the dodge or during her down special, she'll change into a burst of bats, taking half the damage.
The gauge fills as you land attacks in Witch Time during Bayonetta's Final Smash. If you focus on a single target, you'll waste time chasing them each time they're launched, so try to attack multiple opponents.
