In '' | In ''Persona 5 Royal'', Joker uses a grappling hook to reach far-off locations when dungeon crawling. He can also use the grappling hook for combat; by increasing his rank in the Faith Confidant, he learns the Chaînés Hook ability, allowing him to latch onto unaware enemies from afar and zip towards them for an ambush (curiously, this is the exact opposite of how the attack interacts with opponents in ''Smash Bros.''). The animation for the attack in ''Smash Bros.'', with Joker's spinning flourish before shooting the hook out of his left sleeve, is identical to his animation when using the grappling hook in ''Royal''. ''Royal'' received its first previews showcasing the use of the grappling hook a few days after Joker's DLC release, heavily suggesting that the idea for having the grappling hook in his moveset came from ''Royal''. | ||
Wings of Rebellion has no solid base in ''Persona 5'', but is likely based on the fact that Arsène is capable of flight. It is also a possible reference to the intro of the game, which shows Joker summoning Arsène to take flight. The name of the attack calls back to a speech that is heard whenever Joker begins a new Confidant: a voice informs him that the bond he has just forged "shall become the ''wings of rebellion'' that breaketh thy chains of captivity." | Wings of Rebellion has no solid base in ''Persona 5'', but is likely based on the fact that Arsène is capable of flight.
