Name1:
Joy Joy Block: qcf + A/C/AC (Hold d to increase the speed)
* description
* Ai calls for a Tetris piece to fall from the sky. Using A calls for square shaped pieces at a close range. C will call for "z", "s", and "L" shaped Tetris pieces at midscreen. Using both A and C together will call for "L", "I", and "t" shaped Tetris pieces at long range. While holding the button, press down to increase the speed. This move causes knockdown.
Name2:
Baseball Stars: qcb + A
* description
* Ai swings with a baseball bat. This does one hit, and can be canceled into a super. This causes knockdown.
Baseball Stars Professional: qcb + C
* Ai does her baseball bat swing, but instead it hits for 2 hits instead of one. All of the properties for this move are the same as in qcb + A. Both moves can deflect projectiles.
Baseball Stars 2: qcb + AC
* Ai calls for a square shaped Tetris piece, then swings her bat to hit it towards her opponent. The block will go across the whole screen towards the opponent.
Joy Joy Balloon: A+B+C (possible in the air)
* Ai jumps in the air into a balloon that materializes as she jumps. Her movement is minimized, but she gains a few different moves also.
Joy Joy Treasure: A+B+C ~ A/C
* While Ai is in the balloon, she will throw out projectiles. The button strength determines the type of projectiles. A shoots out small ones, and C shoots out big projectiles.
Joy Joy Kick: A+B+C ~ B
* While Ai is in the balloon, she will do a kick. There's nothing really special about this move.
Joy Joy Block: A+B+C ~ qcf + A/C
* While Ai is in the balloon, she will call out a square shaped Tetris piece that stays in the air for a few seconds. This is one of her only real defensive move while in Joy Joy Balloon mode.
Lightning Ball: A+B+C ~ A+B+C
* While Ai is in the balloon, her character will turn black while energy emits from behind the balloon, causing a huge ball of energy to do damage.
Cancel Balloon: A+B+C ~ D
* While Ai is in the balloon, she will jump out, and the balloon will disappear. She can do 2 moves after this jump.
Fire Spinning Top: A+B+C ~ D ~ A/C
* While Ai jumps out of the balloon, she attacks with a jump attack that does fire damage. This move knocks down.
Name3:
Moon-Sault: A+B+C ~ D ~ B/D
* description
* Ai does the same move as Fire Spinning Top, except it doesn't do fire damage, and does not knock down.
Alter Ego: qcf + B/D
* Ai does a pose while a doppelganger image dashes in front of her. Using B keeps Ai in place, while the image moves. She can still attack while the image moves. Using D teleports Ai forward, and/or to the other side of the opponent.
2020 Super Catch: hcb + B/D
* Ai uses a robotic glove to catch projectiles. This move does not counter anything, it just absorbs the projectile into her meter. Using B catches high projectiles, and using D catches low projectiles.

Charge Power! Shoot the Unit!: During Last Resort, qcb + A/C

==General Strategy==
==General Strategy==
*
* Keeping opponents confused is something that Ai excels at. Using both qcb + A/C and hcb + B/D can keep opponents guessing as to whether or not she wants to absorb or deflect projectiles. While rushing down, canceling a move into qcf + B/D can add to the confusion, unless the opponent is smart and is looking at what Ai is doing during the teleport. Her qcf + A/C/AC moves at a distance can constantly keep opponents from wanting to dash or jump in at times, and using the AC version might throw them for a loop at times (use sparingly). If possible, Ai can call out a far Tetris block, and throw the opponent towards it, so that on wake up Ai's safe to apply pressure without fear of getting hit.
*
* With the lack of a sweep, her only really good knockdown move is st. D and at times b/f + C. Her best poke is cr. B, which should be hit confirmed into a cr. A to df + D and qcb + A. Cr. A is too short to be reliable, and cr. C is a joke in all honesty. Ai can't really do a cr. D, because its her Hyper Tackle, which hits mid/high.
*
* Like some lower tier characters, she shines in the corner as well. Her Last Resort super can really do a massive amount of damage if there's enough meter to keep the combo going. Ai's j. C and j.

'''Ai Primer Version I(by Dark Geese)'''
- Before you go on trying to tackle her infinite..you need to know the basics of Ai first.
- Her bnb combo is Cr.b, cr.a, df+D to qcb+p Bat..this can link into the qcbx2 p super.
- Another variation of her bnb is st.b to Df+C to bat to ourobouros.
- -Ai doesn’t have a really good Sweep..so be careful.
- The bat reflects projectiles..builds good battery by itself and is a good thing to use.
- Her teleport is good and its qcf+k..one button makes her actually teleport while the other is a fake..
- Her OuroBouros Super is good for rush down and can be released I believe by doing another qcbx2+p to release it.
- Her Joy Joy Balloon is mid-air ABC in the air..D dismounts and can dismount via a crossup..this is key for mastering the infinite. If you Press D again after the first D she will do a dive kick that will crossup.
- Pressing ABC again while on the Joy Joy Balloon will make it explode.
- Forward+ C is a good normal to use as well.
- Far St. D is a good poke to use sparingly with Ai also.
