Funny Valentine (ファニー・ヴァレンタイン, Fanī Varentain) was confirmed to return for All-Star Battle R during the game's initial announcement trailer.[1]
His moveset is fundamentally the same as his from All-Star Battle, with a few tweaks being made to both balance the character and fit him into the overall gameplay tweaks that All-Star Battle R brought.
In the English version of All-Star Battle R, the full name of Valentine's Stand, Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, is localized as the phrase "Filthy acts, at a reasonable price.", as it was in the original All-Star Battle.
Yasuyuki Kase reprises his role from the original All-Star Battle. As with the majority of the game's roster, voice lines for Valentine were either added or re-recorded.
Funny Valentine has 950 health and uses the Stand (スタンド, Sutando) Battle Style, which allows him to freely summon or withdraw his Stand Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, dynamically changing his moveset in the process.
As a Steel Ball Run character, three parts of the Saint's Corpse will slowly appear on the ground as Valentine fights. He can pick up these parts to receive progressively better blessings that can boost his performance in combat. If Valentine battles Johnny Joestar, Gyro Zeppeli, Diego Brando, Parallel World Diego, or another Valentine, both combatants will have to fight over the same three parts.
Valentine briefly summons D4C to attack with a swinging sideways chop.

Stand ON/OFF (スタンドＯＮ／ＯＦＦ)
ON GROUND
Switches between User Mode and Stand Mode. Switching modes changes the skills Valentine is able to use.
Back from the "other side" (自分を「隣りへ」捨てて「入れ替わっている」)
+ 3 ATK buttons ON GROUND
An exclusive, powerful skill that can only be performed when Valentine holds all three Saint's Corpse parts and has a full three stocks of the Heart Heat Gauge. Valentine will slowly spin around with a flag in-hand, swapping places with an alternate version of himself from a parallel world. This completely and instantly restores his health to full. If Valentine is low on health and has activated Rumble Mode, then it and its boons will persist into his transition, resulting in him having Rumble Mode engaged at full health. The drawback of this ability, however, is that Valentine will drop all of the Saint's Corpse parts and his Heart Heat Gauge will be disabled for the rest of the match. The three stocks of Heart Heat are also immediately consumed upon attempting this skill regardless if Valentine succeeds or not, rendering it a heavy loss if he is interrupted. If struck by Kosaku Kawajiri's Great Heat Attack, "Bites the Dust", after having used this skill successfully, Valentine's HHG will be restored once time has looped backward.
Holy Corpse
// while near Corpse Part ON GROUND
Valentine receives a new blessing for every part of the Saint's Corpse he holds. If he is successfully knocked down, however, one Part is knocked away from him, and he loses the associated blessing.
Guard Gauge will not go down as quickly.
Defense power increases, reducing the amount of damage Valentine takes by 10%.
"D4C -Love Train-" triggers.
"D4C -Love Train-" (Ｄ４Ｃ‐ラブトレイン‐)
Automatic while holding three Saint's Corpse parts
When in possession of all three Saint's Corpse parts, D4C -Love Train- generates a barrier of light from the ground around Valentine, making him invincible to all non-HHA/GHA projectiles and traps. However, if in hitstun, Valentine will still be susceptible to these attacks, meaning that if they are used mid-combo, they will still deal their intended effects. The performance of some skills in Stand Mode will also be enhanced, and Valentine's defense will be further increased, resulting in him taking 25% percent less damage (15% more than the damage reduction granted from possessing two Saint's Corpse parts). The window in which he can Stylish Evade will also be extended during this time.
Rumble Mode (ゴゴゴモード)
Activates below 30% health
This mode is automatically activated once Valentine falls below 30% health. It increases his attack power, as well as the rate at which the Heart Heat Gauge rises, while also decreasing the rate at which the Guard Gauge drops.
Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)
It's merely self-defense. (正当なる防衛だよ)
+ //ON GROUND
Valentine draws his gun and rapidly fires a number of bullets before throwing the gun away. The number of the bullets and therefore damage increases in order, but the more bullets, the more vulnerable Valentine becomes. The bullets will miss against crouching (unless they have their Stand summoned or are on their horse) and shorter opponents entirely. (Flash Cancel comboable)
Valentine twirls an American flag around himself as another Valentine comes out from behind it, delivering a flying dive kick that causes a ground bounce if it connects. The other Valentine then disappears using his own flag. The distance away from Valentine that the alternate version emerges increases in order. This skill functions as a short-ranged projectile attack and anti-air. If Valentine is hit after casting this move, the alternate Valentine will still appear and complete his attack, allowing this skill to also function as a sort of combobreaker. Because the version has the alternate Valentine appear behind Valentine, this version of the skill can catch cross-ups. (Comboable)
Attack type: Middle Damage: 55
Hiding in the next dimension. (隣の次元へ逃れて隠れなくては…………)
+ //ON GROUND CHARGEABLE
A special movement technique where Valentine throws a flag into the air, wrapping himself inside of it and disappearing. He then reappears from the flag as it floats around. Valentine is completely invincible from the start of the jump until right before he reappears. Valentine's reappearance can be delayed by holding the inputted attack button. Valentine's jump trajectory is determined by the attack button inputted:
Light (): Valentine jumps straight up.
Medium (): Valentine jumps diagonally up and forward.
Heavy (): Valentine jumps diagonally up and backward.
If Valentine is knocked down with a non-HHA/GHA, he can enact this skill at the cost of one bar of the Heart Heat Gauge, which is particularly useful for holding onto the Saint's Corpse part he would normally lose in that situation. If an opponent is in the air during a combo, this skill will continue to juggle them. (Comboable when hitting a previously launched opponent)
Attack type: High Damage: 10
He's gone?! (消えた！！？)
+ //ON GROUND
A counter attack. Valentine strikes a pose. If hit with a non-Throw/Heart Heat Attack/Great Heat Attack, Valentine grabs the opponent and falls backward, using the opponent and the floor to disappear into another dimension while the opponent instead hits the ground and takes damage. Valentine then reappears from the ground behind the downed opponent. He will always end up on the opposite side of the opponent from where the counter was triggered. The recovery decreases in order, but the speed of the startup will also decrease.

Skills [Stand On] (コマンド技)
Well, now you've done it! (かなりムカついたぞ)
+ //ON GROUND
D4C advances forward while unleashing a barrage of chops, knocking the opponent to the ground a short distance away on the last hit. The distance D4C travels and number of hits increase in order, but the greater the increase, the more vulnerable Valentine becomes. (Flash Cancel comboable) During "D4C -Love Train-", Valentine is invincible from just after activation until the attack begins.
Attack type: High Damage: 72 / 84 / 96
I'll dispose of you! (始末する)
+ //ON GROUND
D4C shifts forward and attacks. D4C will always perform a two-hitting chop, but the follow-up attacks vary based on the attack button inputted. This attack is a Stand Rush-compatible skill that Valentine can disconnect from to freely act while it's executing. (Flash Cancel comboable)
Light (): D4C only performs the initial downward swinging chop.
Medium (): D4C moves into the air to perform a follow-up overhead chop, causing the opponent to crumple to the ground. While the two attacks do not normally combo into each other, they can be made to if the skill is Stand Rushed at the right time after the first hit. They can also combo if the opponent has been launched previously, though the second hit will knock opponents to the ground.
Heavy (): D4C moves forward even more to perform a follow-up low kick that launches the opponent into the air. The two attacks do not combo into each other. However, if used in a combo where the opponent has already been launched, these hits will juggle opponents, though the hits are still not guaranteed to combo into one another without being Stand Rushed with proper timing.
During "D4C -Love Train-", the and variants have a slightly faster startup.
Valentine pulls out and tosses a flag into the air before D4C slams it down to the ground. If the last hit connects, the opponent will disappear under the flag with Menger sponges flying out from under it. Valentine and D4C will then strike a pose as the opponent is launched into a hard knockdown. The damage increases in order, but the higher damage, the more vulnerable Valentine will become. The second hit of this skill can hit downed opponents, but only if they have not been downed by this skill previously. Damage is increased if "D4C -Love Train-" is active.
A hindrance to my country! (おまえはこの国の未来への「幸せ」を邪魔している)
2 ATK buttons at close range or ( to back-throw) ON GROUND
Valentine has D4C grab the opponent, throwing them high into the air with one hand and jabbing them in the torso with the other as they fall. It then throws them away afterward.
Attack type: Throw Damage: 130
Heart Heat Attack / Great Heat Attack (ＨＨＡ / ＧＨＡ)
Guess who's back! (連れて戻って来た！)
+ 2 ATK Buttons ON GROUND
A counter. Valentine and D4C openly present themselves to the opponent with a shrug. If the opponent's non-projectile/Throw/GHA connects, Valentine will slam them into the ground as he uses them as cover to disappear. He will return from the ground with two extra Valentines as the three proceed to beat the downed opponent. D4C finally throws the opponent into the air and in unison, all three Valentines uppercut them, sending them flying. The two extra Valentines then return to their dimensions.
Attack type: Counter Damage: 220
“
Tah-dah! Guess who's back! All for one, and one for all! (どジャアァァ～～～ん 連れて戻って来た！ みんなわたしだ！)
”
Filthy acts, at a reasonable price. (いともたやすく行われるえげつない行為)
+ 3 ATK Buttons, or ON GROUND
Valentine pulls out a large flag and blankets it forward as he declares the attack something the opponent should be honored to receive. If the opponent is caught, they are draped over by the flag and Valentine jumps under in pursuit shortly afterward. The two are pulled into a parallel world, interrupting the battle between their parallel world counterparts as the camera view is upside-down. Valentine poses with his welcoming doppelganger as the camera reorients itself, while the opponent is forcibly pulled and slammed into their counterpart, resulting in them violently disintegrating into a shower of Menger sponges.
Consider this an honor! My ability lets me freely go between here and the "world" next door! Savor the taste... (光栄に思うがいい この「隣り」の場所に自由に入って来れるのは このわたしの能力だけだ ゆっくり味わえ…)

Assist System (アシストシステム)
Assault Assist (アサルトアシスト, Asaruto Ashisuto)
ON GROUND
A three-stock assist. Valentine jumps in and covers himself with an American flag, creating a new Valentine clone that flies towards the opponent with a leg out for a kick. Valentine then poses before jumping back and covering himself with an American flag, disappearing into it.
Attack type: Middle Damage: 55
Reversal Assist (リバーサルアシスト, Ribāsaru Ashisuto)
ON GROUND
A one-stock assist. Valentine jumps in and summons D4C to punch downwards in the same way as his Jumping Heavy Attack. He then poses before jumping back off-screen.
Valentine now moves forward while punching, giving this normal more range.
Crouching Medium Attack
+ ON GROUND
Valentine now moves forward while attacking, giving this normal more range.
Crouching Heavy Attack
+ ON GROUND
D4C now shifts forward before attacking, giving this normal more range. The second hit also now launches the opponent before causing a hard knockdown instead of only causing a hard knockdown, allowing for Valentine to combo off of this attack.
Jumping Medium Attack
IN AIR OK
This attack launches the opponent on hit now.
Skills [Stand Off] (コマンド技)

+ //ON GROUND
The number of bullets Valentine fires now changes based on which attack button is inputted. He fires 2 for the variant, 4 for the variant, and the full 6 for the variant.
A gift from the other side.
+ //ON GROUND IN AIR OK
This skill now causes a groundbounce rather than a hard knockdown. It can also be used in the air now. Where the alternate Valentine appears in relation to Valentine now changes based on what attack button is used to activate the skill, resulting in the skill having a range that increases as the strength of the attack button does as opposed to being the same for all variants.
Hiding in the next dimension.
+ //ON GROUND CHARGEABLE
This skill now has a hitbox, allowing Valentine to hit opponents for a small amount of damage when he jumps into his flag. It also allows him to juggle opponents in a combo, making for completely new combo routes. The flag will also now slowly drift forward instead of floating in place while Valentine is hidden in it.
He's gone?!
+ //ON GROUND
The input for this counter has changed. Previously it was in place of . The counter is also active for a shorter amount of time than it was in All-Star Battle for all variants, with the time decreasing as the strength of the attack button inputted increases instead of increasing.

Skills [Stand On] (コマンド技)
Well, now you've done it!
+ //ON GROUND
The opponent is launched later now, making it a bit easier to combo off this skill when Flash Canceled. The last hit also deals significantly more damage.
I'll dispose of you!
+ //ON GROUND
The variant now causes a crumple in place of normal knockback, while the variant now launches the opponent into the air before causing a hard knockdown instead of only knocking them down in a hard knockdown. The second attack for both of these variants also executes faster than they did in All-Star Battle, making it slightly more difficult to react to them. However, while "D4C -Love Train-" is active, the decrease in startup speed of these variants is lesser, resulting in them actually executing slower now. For the variant, D4C also moves farther forward for the second hit.
Tah dah!
+ //ON GROUND WHEN DOWNED
There is now a hitbox on the first part of the attack where Valentine tosses the flag into the air, allowing Valentine to deal an extra hit that damages the opponent and knocks them into the air. This also makes the skill more difficult to react to as this essentially decreases the startup. Furthermore, this skill can now hit downed opponents. While "D4C -Love Train-" is active, this skill now deals significantly more damage rather than turning into a Middle attack.
General Changes
Unlike every other character in the game, Valentine's walk speed while in Stand Mode has been noticeably decreased instead of increased. Because his animation speed has not changed, it results in him looking like he is walking in place.
Valentine's first ten Taunt and Victory Lines are included in his Taunt and Victory Poses respectively, with two lines per pose; the first two poses of each type are unlocked by default, while the other three of each must be purchased for 450 G each. The remaining lines of both types can be purchased as a single set for 300 G. Valentine's Tag Lines can be purchased as a set for 140 G.

When hit by Giorno Giovanna's Heart Heat Attack, Valentine's expression mirrors his after he barely manages to shield himself from Tusk ACT4's initial burst of energy using D4C Love Train.[4]
When hit by Enrico Pucci's "It's an illusion." skill, Valentine leans over and reaches downward with both of his arms, as he does when first using D4C Love Train to redirect holes created by Johnny Joestar's nail bullets.[5]
