The Funchuk's design is highly based around the weapon Nunchacku, or Nunchucks. The ARM itself is designed appear as a cyan and gray hand holding the black and light green nunchucks. A stylized version of the manufacturer logo appears on the base the hand. When charge the handle closest to the hand remain stationary as the other handle will continuously spin in a diagonal motion. There's a hexagonal pattern within the hand.

Function

"Its whirling stick thwacks opponents silly and will switch up its spin during jumps. You may feel the need to yell "hi-yah" when it's equipped."

—Official Description
