Paladins are holy knights who will protect and help anyone who needs protection. As such, they tend to be tanks, meaning that defeating one will be a difficult task due to the Paladins' naturally high defenses.
As a tank, the Paladin is skilled at taking hits and the more he is hit, the stronger some of his attacks are. He is more of a Ground attacker, although a number of his moves can also be done in the air. In contrast to most, if not all, Paladins, this one cannot heal at all, not even in EX Mode, so it is advised to be careful on which attacks to take and which ones to avoid.
