Description
Sylux is one of those highly requested fighters that I agree definitely could use his shot as a Super Smash Bros. fighter, he'd be someone from the Metroid Prime series with a far unique moveset compared to Dark Samus might I add. Let's not forget that Sylux would also be another fighter whose system of origin was the DS, so for the only Smash Bros. Fighter that originated in a DS game is Lucario. For whatever he does do in Metroid Prime 4, that should definitely be implemented into his moveset, of which I believe could be something like this (some moves used actually come from other Bounty Hunters seen in Metroid Prime Hunters):

For a stage entrance in VS Mode, I guess it could be Sylux's way of making an entrance.

Special Moves
*Standard: Shock Coil
With a move like this, Sylux can unleash an electrical wave blast forward, which can also be fired in multiple shots at once up to 3 times. The attack can also travel through opponents, dealing damage to anyone standing by that opponent as well.
*Side: Imperialist
An energy beam is fired in a straight line. Works a bit like how Ness and Lucas use PK Fire, but the attack is longer.
*Up: Launch
Sylux launches himself up into the air with the jets on his armour for a limited amount of time. Works a bit like ROB's up special.
*Down: Magmaul
I know people think it would likely be Lockjaw, nut c'mon, a special attack that transforms and you don't become a different fighter altogther? With an attack like this, Sylux fires a bomb downwards which'll then fire molten projectiles in a large splash radius. Let's say that this works like the down special of Inkling and the Belmonts.

For a final smash, we won't be able to know what it is until we see it in action in Metroid Prime 4, so I left a question mark placeholder since this deviation was posted before it was known of. Come Metroid Prime 4, Sylux could unleash a super powered attack or have a transformation which would totally make sense for a Final Smash.

For basic attacks, aerial attacks, smash attacks, throws and dash attack, Sylux could make use of moves used by himself and other bounty hunters that don't appear as special moves, along with moves used by enemies in the Metroid Prime series and moves used by Samus that don't appear in her own moveset. One of those move types if you ask me could have Sylux shapeshift into his lockjaw form, but I don't know what for certain right now.

For idle animations, one could have Sylux do a pose similar to Samus' taunt from the first 2 Smash Bros. games, another could have him do an idle pose used in Metroid Prime Hunters.

For taunts (I have no specific way of the input to say for sure):
*One where Sylux points his arm cannon forward and chuckles.
*One where Sylux hovers slightly whilst making a mechanical yell.
*One where Sylux puts his hand on his visor scanning the area.

For palette swaps, they can be based off the other bounty hunters seen in Metroid Prime Hunters, along with some enemies seen in the Metroid Prime series.

When Kirby copies Sylux, he’d gain a metallic green stripe on his head similar to what Sylux has on his armour.

For victory poses, one can have Sylux aiming his arm cannon amid to the camera, another can have him use his mechanical laughter, and another can have him launch off holding up a stolen item.

For a victory theme, it would be the more sinister version of the tune that plays when Samus obtains an item used by the Metroid Villains: youtu.be/FJMpS5lfaTU
