How the hell do I unlock Saiki and Hillbilly?

[meow]

I've done the required things in Arcade Mode and I just keep getting challenged by Ash. Do I need to do it with specific characters or something?

To be challenged by Saiki you have to perform a lot of target actions per round. It helps to set the CPU to very easy so you can just do like 10 target actions each round. Eventually he will challenge you (doesn't take too long). I think for Billy it's the opposite, avoid doing target actions whenever possible and he'll challenge you.

Yeah, this is it. I did about 6 actions per round.

Actually, I did a lot of Target Actions and I still got Billy on my first arcade run. Granted, I didn't count them, but still.

For Saiki you need to do at least 10 target actions per round and rank s on the three first battles.
For Billy you need to do at least 5 target actions per round.

I'm getting incredibly mixed messages here.

An easy way to unlock Saiki is putting difficult in level easy, with this, CPU AI almost are stand and you can do a lot target actions per round.

10 PER ROUND??

Are you sure? Gamefaqs says only 5 per match and I don't recall having to have to do so many for the consoles...

I did at least per 5 round before, but I'm unsure if I got 'S' ranks in the first three battles... no Saiki. At what point does the character jump in to challenge you if you've satisfied the prerequisites?

[Shinusagi]

False, I did only 5 per round on the first walkthrough and got Saiki, then exit, restart again, only 3 per round and got Billy.
I think if you die with a character, those actions are not considered, so you need to do a whole 5 actions with your next character on the same round

But FOR SURE, TESTED, only 5 per round with a same character to get Saiki, and only 3 to get Saiki.

I thought they were unlocked already? I guess it was the beta version only then, darn I even did not notice because I do not even use those characters.

I had seen on the internet that this was the way to unlock Saiki, was when I bought the console version, I did like that on the console and the PC.
And now I find out that it was much easier.

ROUND or MATCH?

Because 5 per round is 15 per match, and that's a high demand.

[MightyKombat]

Round. For Billy you just have to do 2. I did 2 per round and got him.

Which means you do 2 actions, beat the current enemy, then do 2 more against the next opponent and so on.

[meow]

So I got Saiki and now I'm not sure what to do with Billy.

A wiki somewhere said to do NO target actions...

[MightyKombat]

Weird. But I did 2 each round and got him so try tht.
