| '''Richter Belmont''' is a vampire hunter from the ''{{wp|Castlevania}}'' series of games, and the descendant of [[Simon Belmont]], who debuted as the main protagonist of ''{{wp|Castlevania: Rondo of Blood}}''. Richter faces the resurrected [[Dracula]] in the year 1792, storming Castlevania after the town of Aljiba was burned by Dracula's forces and innocent maidens were kidnapped, including Richter's girlfriend. He is a playable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

| |
| Richter makes his ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' debut in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' as a third-party character. He appears alongside fellow Konami characters [[Solid Snake]] and Simon Belmont, Sega's [[Sonic the Hedgehog]], [[Bayonetta]], and [[Joker]], Capcom's [[Mega Man]], [[Ryu]], and [[Ken Masters]], Bandai Namco's [[Pac-Man]], Square Enix's [[Cloud Strife]] and [[Hero]], Microsoft's [[Banjo]] & [[Kazooie]], and SNK's [[Terry Bogard]]. He and Simon were confirmed to be in the game via a Nintendo Direct that took place on August 8th, 2018. Richter is voiced in English by {{wp|David Vincent (actor)|David Vincent}}, reprising his role from previous ''Castlevania'' titles, including ''{{wp|Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin|Portrait of Ruin}}'', ''{{wp|Castlevania: Harmony of Despair|Harmony of Despair}}'', and ''The Dracula X Chronicles''<ref>[https://twitter.com/davidvincentva/status/1027644213851246592 Tweet by David Vincent]</ref>; and in Japanese by {{wp|Kiyoyuki Yanada}}, his voice actor in ''{{wp|Castlevania: Symphony of the Night|Symphony of the Night}}''.
| |
| | |
| Richter is classified as an Echo Fighter of Simon, with his moveset and animations being based directly on Simon's (although the two actually take inspiration from each other), making him the first third-party Echo Fighter and the only one of a newcomer instead of a veteran fighter. Richter's special attacks are Axe, an ax that is a powerful projectile; Holy Water, a multi-hitting projectile, with a blue flame that does aura damage instead of an orange burning one that does flame damage; Cross, a projectile with boomerang-esque properties; and Uppercut, a powerful uppercut that functions as his recovery move. Richter's Final Smash, Grand Cross, is functionally identical to Simon's identically-named Final Smash.
| |
| | |
| In Simon's debut trailer, he saves his ancestor Simon from Dracula's attack, and shouts a variant of his famous line from ''{{wp|Castlevania: Symphony of the Night}}'' (quoted above), "Die monster. You don't belong in this world!"
| |
| | |
| Similar to [[King Dedede]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and [[Lucina]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', Richter's name is announced differently in the Japanese version to reflect the pronunciation in that language. This trait is also shared with Simon and [[King K. Rool]].

| ====Palutena's Guidance====
| |
| *'''Pit''': Um... Who's this guy with the chain whip?
| |
| *'''Palutena''': That would be Richter Belmont.
| |
| *'''Alucard''': Pardon the interruption.
| |
| *'''Pit''': GAH! Don't sneak up on us like that!
| |
| *'''Palutena''': Ahh, Alucard. Hello! Pit, meet Alucard. He's the son of Count Dracula.
| |
| *'''Pit''': Dracula's your dad?! That's so cool! Hey, do you have fangs? Are they sharp?
| |
| *'''Viridi''': Pit! That's pretty personal. And do you really want to bring up blood-sucking fangs?
| |
| *'''Pit''': What are you... Oh no! You're not here to suck my blood, are you? I need it!
| |
| *'''Alucard''': No, I don't like the taste. And my mother taught me not to cause suffering. My father chose another path, and so I've sworn to stop him. Richter here is the descendant of a man who shared my burden. He has a strong sense of justice and is an honest man. But that in turn makes him easy to manipulate. He was once cursed by the dark priest Shaft who used him as a puppet to control Dracula's Castle.
| |
| *'''Pit''': So you're saying he's kind of...uh...simple?
| |
| *'''Viridi''': Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house, Pit. I very much doubt that YOU could effectively run a castle.
| |
| *'''Alucard''': In any case, Richter is a formidable opponent. Underestimating him would be your undoing.
| |
| *'''Palutena''': Alucard, do you also intend to participate?
| |
| *'''Alucard''': I am merely here to [[Assist Trophy|assist Richter...and anyone else who calls upon me.]]
