Note: This FAQ is primarily based on the second "Ver.B"

Also, I'll not mind if the writers of other VF4
character FAQs borrow the flexible layout of this FAQ.

3. NUTRITION INFORMATION (Profile)
Note: To paraphrase the anime studio KSS, all
characters, stock prices, and three sizes in this game are
fictional.
Name: Pai CHAN
Nickname: ?

Debut: Virtua Fighter 1
Sex: Female
Height: 166 cm (5'5")

Dislikes: ?

"Difficulty" means whether this VF4 chara is easy or
hard for players to learn, use, and master.
(By now, Pai is virtually 26 years old, a "Christmas
Cake".)
1P Costume (G): Blue hat, blouse, and pants, with
yellow embroidery. Red sash. No socks. Blue shoes, with
white bottoms.
2P Costume (G+Start): Red head-dress. Red vest with
two tuxedo-like tails. An embroidered "banner" hangs down
from under the front of the vest. The banner has a dark
green rear side. Pink sleeves and pants. No socks. White
shoes.
(I don't think Pai's hat can fall off or be knocked
off. Neither can Kage's head-ring. Also, Pai bounces
(nudge, wink), but isn't as "bouncy and full of life" as
Sarah or Dural.)
VF1 Costume: According to the 2001.09.21 issue of Bi
Weekly Dorimaga, which has photographic proof, the
conditions to choose any VF4 chara's blocky VF1 appearance
are:
- Use a VF4 Character Access Card (VF.NET).
- The player's ranking is above Shodan.
- In the chara select screen, hold P+K when the
player selects his chara.
VF4 chara who weren't in VF1, such as Aoi and Vanessa,
also have blocky VF1 appearances.
I presume this also allows the VF4 chara, except
Vanessa and Lei Fei, to do their winning poses from
previous VF games.
Stage: Aquarium
Size: 10 m x 10 m
High Fences: Yes and unbreakable
Ring Out: No
Floor: Clear, flat, and unbreakable
BGM: ?
(I don't think the glass tiles on the floor can be
damaged.
In one corner of the background is a dolphin (Ecco).
When a round begins and that corner is in the screen, the
dolphin quickly comes to loiter behind Pai.
Does the dolphin do a back flip at random? Or does it
do a back flip whenever Pai does a back flip, but not when
she does a front flip? Or whenever either Pai or her enemy
does a back flip?
Also, does the dolphin roll over and sink below the
window frame when Pai is knocked down or rolling on the
floor?)
3.1 1ST IMPRESSION
[Ramble ON]
One of the differences between VF4 and VF3tb is when
a defender blocks an attack, the attacker's limb passes
through the defender's limb. In VF3tb and VF3, the
attacker's limb stops at the defender's limb. This way,
VF4 fights more like FMM and VF2.
Because of her speed, at Stage 3, CPU Pai is an Ensign
Eliminator to VF4 novice players.
What's with the Japanese arcade fighting game
programmers' current fascination with the names Christie and
Vanessa?
New characters in DOA3 and Tekken 4 are named Christie,
and new characters in KOF2000 and VF4 are named Vanessa.
There must be a conspiracy somewhere in this.
Given the 3D fighting games of DOA3 (Tecmo), Soul
Calibur 2 (Namco), Tekken 4 (Namco), and VF4 (Sega), I'm now
more interested in Cassandra Alexandra of Soul Calibur 2.
Thanks to Satomix of Japan, here's the seiyuu (voice
actor) list of VF4 for arcade, typed up in the format of
Doi Hitoshi's Seiyuu Database HP.
Virtua Fighter 4 [Arcade, PlayStation 2]
# Arcade: Sega, 2001.08.01 (first), 2001.08.20 (Ver.B)
# PlayStation 2: Sega, 2002.01.31
Umenokouji Aoi :: Kumagaya Niina
Pai Chan :: Takayama Minami
? :: Claire O'Connor
? :: Colleen Lanki
? :: Donna Burke
Sarah Bryant :: Lenny Hardt {PlayStation 2}
system voice :: Lenny Hardt {PlayStation 2}

? :: Sakai Tetsuya
? :: Sakurai Takahiro
? :: Tsujimura Mahito
? :: Eric Kelso
? :: Dennis Gun
? :: Jeff Manning
Jeffry McWild :: Marcus Hood
? :: Ryan Drees
The list in the staff roll at the end of the game,
doesn't actually specify who voices whom, but based on the
lists of the previous VF games, Kumagaya Nina is probably
Umenokouji Aoi again, and Takayama Minami probably
replaces Iwao Junko as Pai Chan.
Miki Shinichirou, Chiba Shigeru, and Mitsuyoshi
Takenobu are probably Yuuki Akira, Lau Chan, and Kagemaru
again.
Satomix has a VF4 fan page at:
http://www.page.sannet.ne.jp/satomix/vf4/
In return, Satomix wants to know who in the above
list is Jerky's seiyuu?
In the Tokyo Classified HP, a "Tokyo Talk" article has
a photo of Jeffry's seiyuu, Marcus Hood, at
Also in the Tokyo Classified HP, the "Life in Japan"
articles have interviews with and photos of two other VF4
seiyuu: the theatre artist Colleen Lanki at
http://www.tokyoclassified.com/lifeinjapanarchive349/334/lifeinjapaninc.htm
and the singer and narrator Donna Burke at
In the Tokyo Weekender - Japan's Forum for Foreigners
HP, an article has a photo of Ryan Drees at
http://www.weekender.co.jp/on_the_scene-020201.html
In the Wasedajuku (Waseda Prep School) HP, the
Wasedajuku WPN (Waseda Prep News) section has a photo of
Eric Kelso at
http://www.wasedajuku.com/02honka/05mdia/p64_list.htm
Besides the voice actor list of VF4, I'm also looking
for the complete voice actor lists of Soul Calibur 2 and
Tekken 4.
3.2 2ND IMPRESSION
In VF4, in an one-player game, I think the player's
chara only does her before-match pose once, before the
first match.
Before the second and later matches, only the CPU
chara do their before-match poses.
When a standing loser is KO and falling, the winner can
continue to attack or throw the loser to humiliate him.
OTOH, Shun players use this loss time to add 2-3 DP.
When the timer is 0.00 and the game announces
"Time Up", attacks that hit will cause no damage. Also,
VF4 chara have no Time Up animations.
For documentary purpose, I've been understandably
watching Pai a lot, and noticed a feature. (Yes, I'm
lifeless.)
When Pai's knocked down, lands on her back, and remains
on the ground for a second, her thighs automatically close.
When she lands on her back after a sacrificial throw, such as
her DDT (Tenchi Touraku), her thighs also close. When she
lands on her front, her legs don't move.
The other female chara, plus Dural, also have this
feature. The male chara don't have this feature WRT modesty,
however they land.
(OTOH, I'll not be amused if Jerky has it.)
For comparison, the female chara in Soul Calibur 1 also
have this feature, even when they land face-down.
(All right, I'll crawl back into the woodwork now.)
Lastly, the proper pronunciations of some VF4 chara's
names:
Pai pie (rhymes with "eye")
Akira ah-key-rah
Kage car-geh (not "cage" or car-jeh)
Lion lee-orn
Jacky Jerky

3.3 3RD IMPRESSION
From CreeD (2001.11.22):
In Dural's stage, that boring tiled background that
looks like a bunch of big metal plates? There are little
cubbyholes in the center and in those cubbyholes are mini
Durals.

4. COMMANDS
The data in this section are derived from:
- Bi Weekly Dorimaga, Vol.6/2001 (Softbank Publishing,
2001.08.10).
- Bi Weekly Dorimaga, 2001.09.21 extra issue (Softbank
Publishing, 2001.09.21).
- Various English Websites (see the Links section).
- Various Japanese Websites (see the Links section).
- Wojciech Dworak's VF4 FAQ (now off-line).
Note: Correct me if I'm wrong.
See Wojciech Dworak's VF4 FAQ (if able) for
explanations of the standardised abbreviations used in this
section.
Though the commands in this FAQ are written as P-K-G,
the buttons should be wired as G-P-K. Most players place
their thumb, index finger, and middle finger on the G, P,
and K buttons. Other players may place their index finger,
middle finger, and ring finger on the buttons. YMMV (Your
Mileage May Vary).
4.1 BASIC COMMANDS

Walk in that direction.
f,f
Dash forward.
d,d

4.2 ADVANCED COMMANDS
The Advanced Commands below are divided into
these groups:
- Regular Attacks
- Special Attacks (Attacks that execute from the
Bokutai and Meishouho stances.)
- Throws
- Reversals
- Jumping Attacks
- Ground Attacks
- Turn-Towards Attacks
- Wall Attacks
- Rising Attacks
Note: Damage is measured in damage points, not damage
percentages or Shun's drink points (DP). Each VF4 chara,
regardless of costume and weight, normally (at standard
difficulty settings) has an energy bar that represents 200
damage points before KO. The damage of an attack increases
when the attack hits as counter.
A normal hit causes a white flash. A counter hit causes
a yellow flash. A staggering hit causes a red flash.
Some hit levels are incorrect or missing. Correct me if
I'm wrong.
(HHH) means when the first strike hits as normal, the
other strikes in the brackets also hit.
[HHH] means when the first strike hits as counter, the
other strikes in the brackets also hit.
For convenience, the technique names below are
transliterated into English alphabets by the more
common Hepburn convention, instead of the more precise
Kunrei convention.
Warning: To sabotage non-Japanese game mag writers who
cowardly steal materials from non-Japanese game FAQs that
are deposited at Websites and don't honestly credit the
authors of those materials, plus just for fun, some of the
technique names are in fact items from the menu of a local
Japanese restaurant.
(No, I'm not as creative as the great Jirawat Uttayaya.)

4.3 ADVANCED COMMANDS II
This is a condensed version of the above section, which
players can cut out, print, and use at arcades.
(Under construction!)
4.4 OTHER COMMANDS
POSES AND QUOTES
----------------
The player can choose Pai's pose and quote before and
after a match by pressing G, P, or K.
For precision, the quotes are transliterated into
English alphabets by the Kunrei convention.
The English translations are approximate and aren't
necessarily literal.
? At the end, she crosses her hands a short distance
before her face, and glares at the camera.
"haa--"
? (Pose?)
"anata ga taisen aite ne. yorosiku ne."
("You are the opponent, aren't you. It's
good to see you.")
? Pai steps forwards and makes a respectful gesture:
her hands are before her at neck level, and her
left fist presses against her right palm. Her
right fingers are straight.
(Quote?)
Press: Winning poses and quotes:
P At the end, Pai stands still, with one foot before
the other. Her head is looking left. Her left hand
is at her left hip, and her right hand is raised
above her head.
"zyuunen hayakatta wane!"
("You were ten years too early, weren't
you!" In other words, "You should have
trained for ten more years before you fought
me!")
K Pai stays standing, looks at her enemy, brushes or
wipes her left hand on her left thigh, and places
both hands on her hips.
(Quote?)
? (Pose?)
"anata niha KUNHUU ga tarinai wa!"
("Your skill is insufficient!")
? (Pose?)
"anata tte zenzen kawattenai none."
("You are completely unchanged, aren't you."
In other words, "You haven't improved since
VF2 or VF3tb, have you.")
P+K (Pose? Quote?)
P+K+G (Pose? Quote?)
According to shoda clinic, to do the P+K and P+K+G
poses, the player must have a VF.NET card and be higher
than 2nd Dan. These two poses are reportedly old poses
from the previous VF games.
During "Continue?" countdown:
Pai kneels on the ground, looks down, and slightly
swings her limp arms by her sides. Her fingers point at the
ground. Later, her body shakes once as she sobs. At the end,
she bends forwards and places her hands on the ground.
(Quote?)
If the player continues:
Pai looks up (forwards) and says her quote.
(Quote?)
Ring Out:
(Pose? Quote?)
(When a standing VF4 chara is pushed out of an
unwalled ring, or he voluntarily walks out of the ring,
while the game announces "Ring Out" and before the next
round begins, the loser does a short animation. When the
loser is knocked down and lands outside the ring, he
won't get up even when his energy isn't zero, AFAIK. If
the winner walks out of the ring after the loser is RO,
the winner stays standing and doesn't do any animation.)
5. PAI STRATEGIES
"The enemy invariably attacks you under one of two
conditions. One, when you're ready for them. Or two, when
you're not ready for them."
- Murphy's Laws of Combat
Against a low-level AI, and even in the later stages,
Pai can KO the CPU enemies by a continuous stream of K,K; or
uf+K,K; or P,P; or P,P,P. Plus the occasional pounces. Don't
bother with the G button.
(I once witnessed an oblivious masher reached Dural's
stage this way.)
From Rolander (2001.10.18):
General comments about VF4 over VF3:
- Generally, recovery time after many attacks appear to be shortened
in VF4. IMHO, this
has caused a little
confusion among former VF3 players as counterattacks that
work in VF3 are not guaranteed in VF4.
VF3 Pai moves in VF4:
- Most standard attacks have survived relatively
unchanged for Pai. VF3 Pai players can fight fairly well
in VF4 player vs player using VF3 tactics (at least I
did).
- f+K+G was mostly useless in VF3. In VF4, the
recovery time has shortened enough considerably to make
it hard to counter if it hits.
- df+K+G is no longer a guaranteed knockdown, unless
on a counter, it will stumble the opponent briefly if
it hits.
- The b+K in P,P,P,b+K and df+P,P,P,b+K no longer
knocks down.
New Pai moves in VF4:
- u+K+G: Pai does a quick high jump and attempts to
stomp on her opponent. On a hit, the opponent is knocked
down and Pai backflips away after landing. Only useful as
a surprise move. Low damage and inability to combo makes
this move useless for anything else.
- New f+K,K and (P,P,)K,K: Pai does a slow hop
mid-kick for the first kick, and a stronger hop kick which knocks down on a
hit for the
second kick. f+K,K
comes out too slow to be useful as a fast pressure move,
though the range of the second kick is considerable and
may catch an opponent at mid-range off guard. P,P,K,K is
potentially a very useful addition to Pai's P,P combos
since it helps mix up attack levels and confuse a victim
of Pai's rushes.
- Most of Pai's new moves are concentrated into her
special stances. To that end, b+K then d for Bokutai
stance is not that good, as the b+K is not too fast and
Bokutai can be interrupted by a d+P at close range.
b+P+K+G into Meishouho is significantly better, and the
follow-up combos can be somewhat confusing for the
opponent, especially when mixed into Bokutai stance.
5.1 PAI COMBOS
From Don "Gamera" Chan (2001.11.14):
Though the following combos are arbitrarily
translated or mistranslated from Japanese VF4 Pai fan
pages, the writers of the fan pages are acknowledged in
the, well, Acknowledgements section and the Links section.
The combos are sorted in order of ascending minimum total
normal (not counter) damage.
BASIC COMBOS
------------
db+P -> K,K 12 + 40 = 52
Close stance only, because db+P changes footing. Both
attacks decrease Shun's drink points.
Against a light-weight enemy, can cheap in one or more
P.
b+P -> f+K,K 20 + 36 = 56
b+P must hit as counter.
K -> f+K,K 20 + 36 = 56
K -> f,f+P,K 20 + 40 = 60
Against a heavy-weight enemy, plus Akira and Jerky,
when the first K hits as normal.
Against a light-weight enemy, can replace with:
K -> P -> d+P -> f,f+P,K 20 + 10 + 12 + 40 = 82
f+K,K does less damage than f,f+P,K, but f+K,K has
shorter recovery time, and is easier to deal with an enemy
who quick recovers, or when the enemy hits the wall and Pai
follows with another combo.
b+P -> f,f+P,K 20 + 40 = 60
b+P must hit as counter. The most damaging combo after a
b+P. If the enemy quick recovers and rolls left or right,
can try the Special Combo (see below).
K -> K,K 20 + 40 = 60
K -> K,P,K 20 + 57 = 77
K -> K,P,(hold K) 20 + 77 = 97
Open stance and the enemy is floated. After the K,K, a
df+P is guaranteed. Or, when the enemy doesn't quick
recover, can follow with a u+P.
Against a light-weight enemy, can cheap in one or more
P.
Against all enemies, when the first db+P hits as
normal.
f+K+G -> K,K 32 + 40 = 72
Even applicable against a heavy-weight enemy, when the
f+K+G hits as counter. Easy to see whether the f+K+G hits as
counter because when it doesn't hit as counter, it doesn't
knock down.
Reportedly less or not effective against Lion.
Even applicable against a heavy-weight enemy, when the
P+K hits as counter.
K -> P,P,K,K 20 + 55 = 75
K -> P,P,P,d+K 20 + 62 = 82
Against a light- or medium-weight enemy, except Akira
or Jerky, when the first K hits as normal. Not limited by
footing.
P,P,K,K does less damage than P,P,P,d+K, but P,P,K,K
moves Pai forwards, and is easier to deal with an enemy who
quick recovers.
D,f+P -> P,P,P,d+K 20 + 62 = 82
Against a light- or medium-weight enemy, can cheap in
one or more P:
D,f+P -> P -> P,P,P,d+K 20 + 10 + 62 = 92
K -> P -> D,f+P -> f,f+P,K 20 + 10 + 20 + 40 = 90
Against a light-weight enemy, not guaranteed when the
first K hits as normal. Against a medium- or heavy-weight
enemy, the first K must hit as counter.
(while rising) middle K -> P,P,P,d+K 30 + 62 = 92
When the while-rising middle-level K hits an enemy
who's in mid-air, such as when he's pouncing, and spins him.
Probably not applicable against a heavy-weight enemy.
Note: Combos that begins with K can follow any of the
following hits under the specified conditions:
Against an enemy who isn't Akira, Jeffry, or Wolf. Can
input as: after the K, hold DF and tap P,P,K,K.
Against Akira, Jeffry, and Wolf, replace with a
f,f+P,K. Or, a K,K -> U+P when the enemy slow recovers.
Against a light-weight enemy. The K can be blocked by
an enemy who quick recovers. The K can also miss Aoi, Pai,
Vanessa, Jeffry, and Lei Fang when they don't recover.
Against such enemies, can replace with an uf+K,K.
The f,f+K can be blocked by an enemy who quick recovers,
but reportedly effective against a CPU enemy. Can follow the
K,K with a df+P.
The K,K is reportedly less or not effective against
Lion.
BOUND COMBOS
------------
Note: Combos against an enemy who doesn't quick recover.
df+P,K -> db+K+G 37 + 25 = 62
The df+P,K spins the enemy, which can be hard to quick
recover.
To try to Ring Out the enemy in a stage with breakable
walls. After the P,P,K,K hits the enemy, and he hits and
breaks the wall at the highest point of his float, the f+K,K
tries to Ring Out him.
Against a light-weight enemy, can hit as normal.
Against a medium- or heavy-weight enemy, must hit as
counter.
Against a light-weight enemy, can also cheap in one or
more P.
Only when the b+P hits as counter, the f,f+P,K knocks
down the enemy, and the enemy quick recovers and rolls
left or right. When the df+K hits the enemy while he's
quick recovering and rolling left or right, it staggers
him while he's turned away from Pai. Crouch-dash towards
him to execute the D,f+P.
If the enemy can quick recover and block the D,f+P,
replace with a uf+K,K after the df+K.
