• Monado Cyclone,  Certain Atks have a windbox effect to them
• Monado Armor, Creates Super Armor for some of his moves
• Monado Jail, Locks opponent from using certain attacks (smash atks or maybe special moves?)
• Monado Eater, Gains HP for hits (like Shulk buster but instead of damage more gains small health)

• Monado Buster, Knockback for oppenents atks is decreased

As someone who doesn't know about anything from Xenoblade, this sounds waaay too gimmicky, and also too different for an Echo Fighter. Having different properties on Monado Arts is reasonable for an Echo, as long as they're not fundamentally different or create such specific scenarios that haven't ever been implemented in Smash such as the locking an opponent's move one (not sure if it's ever been a thing in any fighting game, actually).

Not really, its easy to implement these things. Some of what i said are custom moves/items in game anyway
