All-Star Battle R ★ Weather Report
Weather Report (ウェザー・リポート, Wezā Ripōto) was announced for the game alongside Enrico Pucci (Final) and the Kennedy Space Center stage on November 25, 2022.[1] He released on December 1st, 2022, as a free character along with the v1.4.0 update to coincide with the release of the final set of episodes for the Stone Ocean anime.[2]
His moveset is similar to that of his Eyes of Heaven appearance, with modifications and new aspects added to better fit him in with All-Star Battle R's different style of gameplay.
In the English localization of All-Star Battle R, Weather Report and his Stand's name are both localized as "Weather Forecast", carried on from its first official usage in All-Star Battle.
Having voiced Weather Report in the Stone Ocean anime adaptation, Yuichiro Umehara reprises his role in this game. As Yuichiro Umehara replaces Weather Report's Eyes of Heaven voice actor, Toru Okawa, voicelines for Weather Report were added and re-recorded.
Gameplay
Weather Report has 900 health and uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, fighting foes with Weather Report. During battle, he can use a variety of abilities that were featured during the course of Stone Ocean.

- Weather will passively reflect non-HHA/GHA projectiles back at his opponent.
- The opponent will be burned and ignite if they strike Weather with a melee attack while in close-range, causing them to lose health at a gradual rate.
- Weather's normal attacks, "You can't get away from me!" command normal, "Don't you dare touch me! I'll kill you!", and "I'm blowing in!" are augmented with lightning power for additional damage and hits. Using any heavy normal attack will change its property, causing either a crumple, groundbounce, or launching the opponent depending on the attack.
This ability will end prematurely if Weather executes his GHA, or if he's Thrown by the opponent.
- Currently, a bug exists where the projectile-reflecting properties of "Weather Report" fail to trigger, allowing projectiles to strike Weather even while active.
In earlier versions of the game, this special was erroneously unblockable despite the in-game description and Practice Mode's Attack Type Display listing the attack as simply hitting High.
Attack type: High
- Light : The tornado travels a short distance, and staggers the opponent upon connecting. It can withstand collision with one opposing projectile before being destroyed.
- Medium : The tornado travels a moderate distance, and knocks the opponent off their feet upon connecting. It can withstand collision with up to two opposing projectiles before being destroyed.
- Heavy : The tornado travels a long distance, and launches the opponent high into the air upon connecting. It can withstand collision with up to three opposing projectiles before being destroyed.

- Light : Weather rushes straight forward. (Flash Cancel comboable while grounded)
- Medium : Weather rushes at a diagonally upwards angle. If performed in the air, he will instead rush at a diagonally downwards angle in a middle attack.
- Heavy : Weather rushes directly upwards not unlike a Super Jump, and will strike the opponent twice. If performed in the air, he will instead rush directly downward towards the ground in a middle attack that bounces the opponent off the ground. (Comboable)

Damage: 110
A gauge above Weather Report's Heart Heat Gauge displays how long the transformation lasts, and rapidly depletes while the opponent is a snail. A small amount is also depleted as Weather deals damage to them, proportional to damage dealt, hastening their recovery. If Weather strikes the opponent with a Throw or his GHA, they will revert prematurely.
The only character known to be immune to Weather's HHA is Wamuu after his "I shall see the wind!" special has been activated, due to his self-inflicted blindness.
