VS Battles Wiki
Just like a person holding a sword trying to protect something. That may be one's life, or place in society, or reputation, things that one loves, things that one believes; it matters not if it's good or bad, the will to 'protect it' does not change.
~ Yoruichi to Inoue and Chad

Weaknesses: None notable

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Shunpo: A Shinigami movement technique which allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow. As speed is the main factor of the technique, the method is best characterized by how fast one can get from point A to point B in the least number of steps.

  • Utsusemi: This technique allows the user to move at great speed to avoid an attack, creating an afterimage to substitute the damage.
  • Takigoi:: The practitioner utilizes this technique to create an opening in their opponent's defense.
  • Taketonbo:: A technique in which the user violently flips the opponent on their backs.
  • Raiōken:: A technique pummeling the opponent with multiple high-speed punches.
Yoruichi Shunko

Shunkō

Shunkō (Lightning):: An advanced technique which combines Hakuda with Kidō. This technique enhances Yoruichi by wrapping her body with compressed Kido, Yoruichi, in particular, having the element of lightning. Yoruichi can fire off this Kido to create explosions and neutralize enemy movement with her reiatsu.

  • Shunkō: Raijin Senkei: The lightning emitted from Yoruichi's back creates a circle of electrical energy in the shape of Raijin's drums behind her as Yoruichi unleashes a giant column of concentrated electrical energy to engulf her opponent.
  • Shunkō: Raiju Senkei: Shunryū Kokubyō Senkei: After being enveloped in a column of lightning, Yoruichi develops a form that is a cross between her feline and human forms. Aside from her abilities enhancing dramatically, her reiatsu signature changes 48 times per second in response to her mood. It also makes her extremely fickle like a cat as a side effect.

Kidō

Yoruichi Unnamed Barrier

Unknown Barrier

Kidō: Spells cast by Shinigami with strong enough Reiryoku and Reiryoku control. Kidō is divided into mainly three categories: Hadō for attacks, Bakudō for battle support and Kaidō for healing. The spells are ranking from 1-99 with 1 being the weaker and easier spells to cast and 99 being the most powerful and difficult to cast. Skilled users can cast Kidō without the need of an incantation; however, casting without incantation does reduce the Kidō's effectiveness to less than a third of its full potential.

  • Hanki: This technique is used by Yoruichi during Shunkō. It can be used to cancel enemy attacks.
