Movelist

	Frames	Advantage	Cancel	Block	Hitbox		Notes
Standing Close
	3/6/5			HL
	3/6/6		C,S,Su	L			Low and cancelable, like Kyo's. Great move to slow cancel into f+A (ie inputting f+A a little late in order to have it retain it's overhead properties).
	4/10/15		C,S,Su	HL			Fast and cancelable, good as a meaty too.
	7/8*6/13			HL
Standing Far
	3/6/5			HL			Not that great for a standing A, can be anti-air vs short hop.
	5/7/7			HL			Not bad medium range poke.
	5/10/21			HL			Very good and fast long range poke, but some characters can crouch under it.
				HL			Slower than standing C, but longer range, bigger hitbox, and only Choi/Chin can crouch under it.
+	11/4/23		S,Su	HL
Crouching
	4/6/6		C,S,Su	HL
	3/6/5		S,Su	L			Nice range cancelable (not chainable into command normals) low, the main poking tool into combos.
	3/2+3/25		C,S,Su	HL			Very fast anti-air and ground poke! Cancelable. Not bad to slow cancel into f+A.
	7/5/24		C,S,Su	L			Medium speed long range sweep. Cancelable, and a good meaty. Good to slow cancel into f+A.
Jump
	4/11	-/-		H			Crazy big hitbox but at a sort of weird angle. Can actually cross-up, too.
	4/9	-/-		H			Can cross up, alright as a jump-in, but jumping D is better.
	4/9	-/-		H
	8/7	-/-		H			The tip of his foot on this poke tends to beat a LOT of things. One of the best air-to-ground 'poking' moves, or even air-to-air jumping back.
+	11/6	KD/-		HL			Great air-to-air.
Command Normals
f+	16/5/12			H			Best overhead in the game! Advantage on block, more advantage on hit, and a combo starter off a meaty hit. Not only is it the best overhead, it's great as a long range poke, too. If it hits, you can go for a type of 50/50 with hcf+K throw or cr.B xx hcb+B. The meatier the better. Remember that you can delay the input off of mvoes chained into this to retain it's slower/overhead properties instead of just comboing. When chained, it combos from hard hits, is non-overhead, and cancelable into the Dive Kick (qcf+K in air).
f+ (cancel)	16/5/12		S	HL
f+	16/3/30		S,Su	HL			Always the same speed and cancelable whether it's chained or done alone. Good combo filler, but never stop at this move as it is punishable on block.
