Yatterman-2: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Moves, Combos, Strategy Guide
Last updated on Jan. 28, 2010
Character Overview
Yatterman-2 is a great offensive pressure character. She can trap her opponent with Spark Fireballs while she advances and to set up her attacks.
Her Omotchama's Roll Hyper move summons a helpful robot attacker that will often break up your enemy's combos and attacks, she's fast, has great combos and looks like she'll be one of the better characters in the game.
All of this comes at a big price though, a couple of combos will wipe her out as her stamina is extremely low. Still if you can keep your opponent off of you — she can dish out a beating.
Special Moves
A (2) next to an arrow means to hold the joystick in that direction for 2 seconds to 'charge' the move.
With moves that charge by holding back or down, you can use the diagonal positions to charge up as well. For example, if you're holding back, you can jump backwards or block low and still maintain your charge.
(Can also be performed in the air)
• Spark Fireball (Yatter Swing) •
Yatterman-2 hits out a sparkling projectile that will bounce off surfaces multiple times until it smacks your opponent or runs out of power. When this connects, it cause a fair amount of stagger letting you set up some combos.
Light Punch sends out the spark at a down-towards angle, Medium straight across the screen and Hard creates a spark that flies up and then comes down to hit your opponent on the head.
This is a good lockdown tool as you can jump and shoot out a Medium Spark Fireball right above your enemy's head and have it bounce back and forth while you advance preventing them from jumping to escape your offensive attacks.
Not a traditional projectile by any means, but a great way to pressure your opponent.
• Yatter Shield •
Yatterman-2 spins her wand around which reflects projectiles back at your opponent, although this doesn't work against Hyper moves. You can also knock the other player back with this if they get too close, but the damage is less than if you would have connected with a single light attack.
• Yatter Step •
Executing this makes you dash forward, the strength of the button pressed controls how far you lunge forward with Hard traveling the most distance. Pressing an attack button while you're in this animation will do the following:
Does a straight ahead poke.
An overhead attack.
A wand attack that must be blocked low.
(Mash Attack button, can also be performed in the air)
• Yatter Splash •
Much like Chun-Li's Lightning Leg Kicks in the Street Fighter games, just mash an attack button and Yatterman-2 starts poking rapidly with her wand.
When you're on the ground, mashing Light Attack will make her jab straight ahead, Medium at an up-towards angle and Hard is straight ahead as well, but she hops forward a bit before starting her attack.
While you're jumping, Light Attack again goes straight across the screen, Medium is at a down-towards angle and Hard makes her stab her wand straight down, which is handy if you're directly above someone.
Hyper (Super) Moves
(Hold down attack buttons to charge up move)
• Super Passion (Level 1) •
A Hyper version of your Spark Fireball. Holding down the attack buttons will charge up this move and you can release them when you want to send out your fireball. It takes awhile to fully charge this up though.
• Omotchama's Roll (Level 1) •
Summons a little robot that hangs out for about 10 seconds and will randomly attack your enemy. This thing is awesome because Yatterman-2 has such low stamina a few big combos can easily kill her off, but this little guy has a good habit of combo breaking your enemy right when they get going.
Also, you can build up Hyper meter while the robot is on the screen, which means if you get your stuff down you can consistently keep this guy on screen.
A good defensive and offensive tool, this robot is already hated by many players.
(Mash Attack buttons)
• This Week's Surprise Robots (Level 3) •
Deceptively good range on this Level 3 Hyper. It won't connect from full screen, but about 3/4ths screens distance will still land.
It makes a big Yatter robot come out and do a bunch of damage. Fast start up time means it's easy to combo with and mashing all of the buttons will make it do more hits and damage.
Normal Moves
• Launcher •
This will launch your opponent up into the air.

Question!
Does she actually have good supers? Instead of yattermans crappy... and i mean terrible ass lvl 1 supers.

@FUMN Her level 1 supers aren't really the combo-extending supers. They're more of strategic supers. Super Passion is a chargeable heart that bounces around the screen that might combo if you use some assist. Omocchama's Roll is a tiny robot that attacks by himself occasionally. Used to keep the opponent in a constant defensive position. However, I'm not entirely sure about the whole absolutely non-combo extender. I'm not a pro at her. =P

Unlike Zero's Sougenmu, Yatterman 2 can still build up meter during Omotchama's Roll, so she can essentially pressure while Omotchama confuses the enemy or breaks an enemy's attempt to offense. And because Ai is still gaining a meter, she can pretty much keep on pumping Omotchama's Roll.

Wait, doesn't she also have a super where she puts her wand straight up and grows a giant electrical heart? How does she do that?
Posted by Tazzy on January 28, 2010 at 8:31 p.m. #5
@Ryan D. You can charge her electrical heart. The bigger it is, the slower it travels. It's much easier to continue a combo with it uncharged.

I've beeb player her...not alot though...but word on the net and Youtube say she might be near Karas tier in this game.
I got to play her more to see it for myself.

just spent a few hours playing with her... wow. Her run away is top notch and can be amazingly annoying for your opponent. Just string those Omotchama's together and bounce that horizontal electric ball above their head. Mean s--t.

I main her, and i gotta say she's one of the better characters, gotta stay on your toes when you're up against her.

Got to stay on your toes when you're playing as her to. Two good combos and you're toast.

Does anyone know how to do the giant heart instead of the star when doing "Super Passion"?
And on "This Week's Surprise Robots" I can't seem to get the xtra hits when I mash the buttons, any tips?
Posted by SoulCaster on January 31, 2010 at 11:33 a.m. #11
I think you have to mash all attack buttons including the Partner button to get the additional hits for her "This Week's Surprise Robots" hyper move, it's the only way I got it to work.
