This led to him being teased endlessly by his classmates at school. He was unwilling to take this, especially when his mother was mentioned, leading him to become a relentless scrapper among the World Video Boxing Association- in the Wii game, he seems particularly sadistic and possibly masochistic as well, punching himself in the face between rounds. |
− | Ryan first | + | Ryan first appears in ''[[Super Punch-Out!! (SNES)|Super Punch-Out!!]]'' for the Super Nintendo, where he was a relatively normal competitor and was the #3 challenger in the World Circuit. One of his abilities involved hugging his opponent (in a manner similar to [[Pizza Pasta]]) to regain health. When attacked, he would sometimes respond with his own more difficult version of the Piston Hurricane. |
− | He reappeared in [[Punch-Out!! (Wii)| | + | He reappeared in ''[[Punch-Out!! (Wii)|Punch-Out!!'' for the Wii]], where he was shown as being particularly cruel and cheating. In his introduction slideshow, he was shown taunting and sabotaging other fighters (tickling one's armpit with a feather while he was bench-pressing), as well as stuffing his boxing glove with horseshoes. During battle, Aran fought swiftly and erraticly, and even as he was knocked down he would attempt to get in one last punch (although the punch would never reach Mac). He also used the unorthodox move of bouncing himself off of the ring's ropes and trying to headbutt [[Little Mac]]. In Title Defense Mode, he uses the more illegal attack method of a boxing glove on a string, which he could use to hit Mac even when being knocked out, and he will also attack with his elbows. |
