Shulk

Shulk (シュルク Shuruku?) is the main protagonist of the game Xenoblade Chronicles. He appears as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Character description
Shulk is an 18-year-old male who lives in Colony 9 of the Bionis. His main quest is to stop the threat of the Mechon, and he is often accompanied by his allies Reyn, Fiora, Dunban, Sharla, Melia, and Riki. Shulk uses the sacred weapon Monado, and is one of only a few people able to do so.

Xenoblade Chronicles had been in development since before the Wii was released, but was not unveiled until E3 2009. It was named Xenoblade to honor Tetsuya Takahashi, who played a major role in the game's development. Xenoblade Chronicles was met with acclaim from critics, who praised the game for revitalizing the Japanese RPG, and also praised the relationships between Shulk and the other characters.

Abilities
As the sole wielder of the Monado sword, Shulk can use several arts which affect his abilities in battle.

One of Shulk's more famous abilities is Vision, the ability to see the future and tell what attack the enemy is going to use next, an invaluable asset in battle.
