Pupa is an average girl from Brazil that likes to eat, dance, practice capoeira, assemble and disassemble machinery, party, and cause problems! She's the youngest child of the family and is the one always getting into trouble compared to her brother. Pupa lived in Brazil with her oldest brother and father, who is an engineer, that would raise them after their mother passed when pupa was only five years old. For her fifth birthday, she received an orange handmade hat from her mother before her passing. Shortly after, her father decided to send his three kids to America to attend a proper school. Her brother was shocked by the big city and soon started to get mixed into the wrong crowd. One night, her brother didn't come home and it worried her to the point of looking for him. She was confident in herself but knew the city was a dangerous place so she asked Pupa to help look for her brother since he was famous for being tough. Pepe noticed how worried Pupa was getting over her lost brother, so he decided to go with her to look for her brother.

Pupa is an average neutral character with good defensive and average offensive capabilities. She's easy to pick up but has a slight skill curve to her combos since she has to micro walk to link her BnB's.
Pros	Cons
Great Normals: Pupa's normals are great for neutral control. Having a two-hit safe sweep, fast B buttons, and a good 2C anti-air. Small Hurtboxes: Pupa is small, especially when she crouches. This also reflects her hurt boxes and she can low-profile a lot of mid-hitting moves.+	Combos Require Microwalks: Most of Pupa's combos require micro walks to link her 3B properly. There's plenty of time to get the walk, but it's still a big learning curve that's specific to her. Below Average Special Moves: All of Pupa's special moves are very average. Most of her specials are for gimmicks or deal less damage than the optimal routes.
