The truth is I don't know how to say it, but I would like for example, a hypothetical CvS3 to add a Groove inspired by the Darkstalkers saga, because the latter has interesting mechanics, such as when you defeat your opponent, he revives and They move on to the next round, and more like that.

You mean Puppet (current character becomes foe's chosen character after winning) and Shadow(mirror matches your foe's current character)? They're cool, every game should have those functions on the character select screen.

I don't see how that could be a groove though. Unless "become foe's character after winning one round" or "swap characters after winning" becomes a groove, or every character is coded to be able to use everyone else's moves with the correct groove copying their foe's moves. Didn't Guilty Gear Isuka let Robo-Ky use anyone's specials? I hear Tekken sometimes lets its characters do that too. Some supernatural/sci-fi excuse could be invented to let a character use a groove/spell/sci-fi device to temporarily shapeshift into another character and use their moves, if the developers don't want to animate everyone doing 60 extra moves.

Imagine the kind of teams that build meter in round one and then swap to the opponent's character and groove using a groove for that. Or the strategy involved in dying to a specific character on the enemy's team so your groove can copy their character and groove.
