Need help creating a Blaster / Brawler type based around a theme.


Advice


Hey all, the short and simple version of it is this:
I want to build a character that fights like CAPTAIN FALCON.

A singular amazing devastating punch, or a flying knee that breaks the laws of physics. Any super smash brothers player know exactly the kind of style he brings.

Requirements:
Unarmed Combat
Fast speed, or enhanced movement
Explosive burst damage.
Guts n Glory oriented.

I researched a bit and I know that you can go pure monk build and get something pretty close.
Example build here

My dream would be to make some sort of Sorcerer/Monk hybrid but most results I've found say don't bother.

The other two options i'm entertaining come from the Advance Classes playtest PDF.
The Bloodrager could be a lot of fun, but not very good at unarmed combat.
The Brawler class looks pretty interesting but I am a bit intimidated by something so new and untested.

Any and all suggestions / builds would be greatly appreciated.
Our game is a 1-20 starting at lvl 1, 20 point buy

Edit: For Refrence The Falcon Knee and the Falcon Punch


Are you intetrested on converting 3.5 material to PF? There is the Enlightened Fist PrC, that mixes monk with a caster class. It essentially allows you to scale monk features along with caster lvls, at 3rd lvl you can use a touch spell as part of your unarmed attack and at 7 lvl a ray as part of your unarmed attack. It will not break the balance of the game too, it is considered a weak prc by 3.5 standards so it should be fine on PF.

A Monk 2 / Crossblooded Empyreal Dragonic Sorcerer 3 / Enlightened Fist 10 is a solid build.

Your starting stats could be (for a Human with the +2 racial to Str):

STR 17
DEX 14
CON 14
INT 7
WIS 14
CHA 7

Liberty's Edge

Straight Qinggong Monk.

You can get Scorching Ray, Hydraulic Push, Cold Ice Strike and other blastiness, and stil have most of the core Monk goodies.


Magus using twinked out shocking grasp probably deals the most damage on a single melee attack, especially if you get a crit (however, with unarmed strikes that only happens on a 20).

You could combine that with dragon style+elemental fist for even more damage on a single attack.
