As you know, I'm not particularly fond of Chandelure... In fact, I'd go as far to say that she's in my top three least favorite Pokken Tournament characters. Chandelure is a Pokemon based on an inanimate object, a character that doesn't have many combos, and one known for projectile-spamming.
However, after spending the day practicing with the fiery ghost, I've come to the conclusion that Chandelure is not so bad. First off, she is a power-type character, and that is my favorite kind! Secondly, I love the way Hex (Down + A) works--it makes for some interesting strategies. Also, pendulum mode just looks awesome... The way it swings about is so eerie and childish, which perfectly captures Chandelure's personality!
Oh, and I found this one insane combo! Chandelure doesn't have many, but this one is just breath-taking... Midair Up + X (Hold) --> Jump (Forward) --> Midair A --> Midair Up + X (Forward) (Hold) --> Y Y. Sure, it's difficult to approach with Midair Up + X, but it's well worth it! I'll post some screenshots of me doing the combo tomorrow.
I think I'm going to really enjoy using the luring Pokemon in our upcoming tournament!
On a side note, what support set do you guys use with Chandelure? Since Chandelure is a powerful zoning character, I like to use Fennekin to keep my foes away!
EDIT: Here are some of those screenshots! I have pictures of the first, second, and fourth hit; I haven't managed to get the third one. It's hard to simultaneously hit the 'home' button while pressing up forward and A...
EDIT 2: Finally got that picture! :)
