Missing: Two Pits, a Friendship, and a Morph.
This is a reasonably complete list of moves and finishers for Mortal Kombat
Trilogy. As such, it's rather long. Everything on here I've confirmed
myself, including stuff "known" from MK3 and UMK3, since some of the ranges
were changed. (Although some of them, like Baraka's Animality, are a real
pain for me to pull off successfully.)
NOTE: This list was designed for the Sony Playstation version. And if the
"Official Strategy Guides" being sold out there are any clue, a good
amount of this information will be invalid for the N64 version.
"?" Option Enable: Hold L1, L2, R1, R2 and Up on the option screen.
Wait for the screen to shake. You can now choose the
"?" and the options therein.
Stage Select: Up and Start while on Sonya, then select character as normal.
CHAMELEON
=========
To play as Chameleon, select any of the seven Male Ninjas. Before any round,
hold BACK + R1 + R2 + SQUARE + TRIANGLE. You will then "poof" into
Chameleon. He randomly switches between the seven male ninjas, gaining the
special moves, combos and finishing moves of whichever one he is currently
emulating. As a result, he has no special moves or finishers unique to him.
