Guard Skill (action)

The Guard Skill is a mechanic that appears in Sonic Battle. It is used by all the characters to determine their guarding movement.

Description
Guard Skills are techniques that allow the user to defend themselves against incoming attacks during a match. How the Guard Skill is performed depends on the user, although the user generally forms a swirling purple shield around themselves when using it.

When performed, the Guard Skill makes the user invulnerable to damage. In addition, if the player successfully blocks an attack with the user's Guard Skill, half of the received damage will be transferred to the Ichikoro Gauge. If the blocked attack was a Special Move, the player's Ichikoro Gauge becomes completely filled up instead.

While all Guard Skills are the same in function, there are some whose functions vary; some last for only for about a second when used while others may last a little bit longer.

To perform a character's Guard Skill in gameplay, the player has to press.
