Lloyd Irving

Lloyd is the protagonist of the game Tales of Symphonia from the Tales series. He's a playable character in Super Smash Flash and Super Smash Flash 2. He was one of the first four playable characters in the Super Smash Flash 2 Demo, alongside Mario, Kirby and Ichigo. Notably, he has two swords; one of fire (called the Flamberge), and one of ice (called the Vorpal Sword). They are called the Material Blades. They can combine with each other to create the Eternal Sword which allows one to attack enemies using its space and time properties (as he does when he uses Falcon's Crest).

In Super Smash Flash
Lloyd appears in this game as an unlockable character and the only character representation of the Tales universe. He's unlocked once you accumulate an hour playing Adventure Mode. His sprites are from Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 3 for the Game Boy Advance.

In Super Smash Flash 2
Lloyd reappears but this time as a starter character along with new moves and attacks. He has the same sprites he used in SSF, meaning he didn't get any new sprites. Most of his special attacks involve him using techs ("artes") from Tales of Symphonia.

Trivia

 * In his return into Super Smash Flash 2, Lloyd, along all the Sonic playable characters, didn't received a sprite change or brawlification, meaning he is staying with his Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 3's sprites that were seen in his Super Smash Flash's appearance.
 * Prior to version 0.2b if the SSF2 Demo, Lloyd's Falcon's Crest attacked the enemy with multiple explosions instead of the current move which involves Lloyd trapping the enemy and hitting it with a powerful 2-hit explosions.
 * Prior to version 0.5a if the SSF2 Demo, Lloyd's Side Special Move was Sonic Thrust instead of Beast. Sonic Thrust, however, wasn't cut out of LLoyd's moveset after that because was turned into his third standard attack, although less powerful.
