In Ultimate Ninja Storm, Shikamaru will transform into a werewolf. In the game, when the fight is getting too "troublesome," then he will make his transformation. His ponytail will come loose and then start to spread all over his body. Then the sky will turn dark to cause a dramatic effect. His shadow will be Shikamaru's silhouette so that you know it is still him. He will run on all 4's when he moves but when he stops he will stand on his hind legs. Wherever he goes, clawmarks will be left. He would make growling noises that sound like a dog's growl and he will look very vicious. His teeth would be razor sharp and very long, like he could easily bite off a piece of the EIffel Tower! TO block different jutsu from his opponent, he will use his tail as a big shield and he can diflect kunai with his claws by swatting them as if they were flies! When you want to taunt, Shikamaru get on all fours as if he is preparing to run but instead he lets out a roar and his shadow is going biserk underneath him, as if his shadow is trying to get away but is going in all directions. Shikamaru can't throw kunai while in this form but he can still call for help, which might not be nessecary.
He would still use shadow possesion as his signature move, and he will be able to attack though it as well. His main jutsu would be:
Savage Shadow Possesion
With this jutsu, you must be extra careful not to get caught in the shadow. What he does to catch you is he starts to quiver. This gives you a warning that he is going to use it. Then he puts one of his paws on the ground and a long shadow reaches you. If you don't dodge then you will not be able to move and then after a few seconds, something that looks like an explosion with come out from your back and then you'll get blasted into a tree or in water, depending where you are fighting and lose some health points. When Shikamaru is using this jutsu, he isn't loosing any chakra because, like Naruto's transformation in the previous Ultimate Ninjas, his chakra is unlimited while in this form.
Beastly Bawl
This jutsu is my favorite. With this jutsu, instead of quivering, he does a little growl to give you a heads up. Then all of a sudden his chest gets really big and he lets out a loud roar. While he is doing that, black ghosts/shadows come from his mouth and attack you from all directions. The only way to get away from this jutsu is to jump before they get you, but they move so fast that is will be very difficult to do. If it does hit, the ghosts will go through you and then fly into the sky, causing damage to the victim, and Shikamaru won't loose any chakra while still in his transformation stage.
His ultimate jutsu would be:
Crushing Claw Jutsu
Though Beasty Bawl is my fav, this one looks the coolest. Okay, with this jutsu, SHikamaru doesn't do anything at first. The warning that you get is when a full moon comes from the dark sky and is covered again by the clouds. This gives Shikamaru the power to do his next jutsu, it revitalizes him. But this time, you can interfere. When the moon comes out, Shikamaru cannot move, so this gives the unlucky opponent a chance to get in as many hits as possible. Then you better run for cover cause he has enough power to do the jutsu. In this jutsu, he slowly lifts up the paw that is the closest to the screen. So if he is on the left side of the screen, his right paw will show and vice versa. When his paw reaches over his head, he will punch the ground a giant hand will come out and crush, much like his regular jutsu "Shadow Crushing Palm Jutsu" but intead of a human hand, a paw will appear and his class will be the most frightening thing. No matter how far you are, the claws will get you. They are so ominous because they are all black and then they are super huge. You better be careful when dealing with this jutsu cause it can couse you some major damage point.
If the person looses too much heath before Shikamaru's transformation is comeplete, then when the "You won" screen pops up, that screen will show Shikamaru changing back into his original form, and to add humor to that, he crouches down and scratches off the exess hair with his feet like a dog would.
If SHikamaru completes his transformation and you are, somehow, still healthy enough to continue fighting, then you will witness his transformation and try to get some payback too. After transforming back into the Shikamaru we love, he will have absolutely NO CHAKRA!! This wll be your chance to use everything you have to get him while he's down!
