This sequence has two meaty setups which will catch an opponent either quickrise or backrise if they decide to press a button on wakeup and are (relatively) safe if blocked. They lose to invincible reversals and VShift of course. The gadouken definitely catches both recovery options, need to test the VTrigger1, backdash, medium.Dankicks one.
Starts with an early neutral jump hard kick (too late/deep and the pushback distance will be incorrect) then:
start the loop with
MP, cr.HP xx VSkill2 xx MP xx EX Gadouken (you should be +10 after this)
Followed by looping:
HP xx VSkill2 xx cr.HP xx light.Gadouken
cr.HP xx VSkill2 xx cr.HP xx light.Gadouken
and repeat until you drop it (I don't think the spacing is perfect for an "infinite" loop) or the red Gadouken comes out. End with hard.Dankicks to set up the charged light.Gadouken. This is meaty and more than +10 on hit against both quick and back rise, beating Ryu's 3-frame jab in this example.
I used cr.HP* xx VSkill2 xx cr.HP xx EX.Danretsuken into medium.Dankicks, medium.Koryuken for the stun. Sometimes you'll stun with the Dankicks. You can use whiffed koryuken to build some meter here.
I went for the loop again and ended early to lower the risk of red Gadouken. The setup ending with EX.Danretsuken then catching them with VSkill2 xx VTrigger1 as they fall lets you backdash, whiff medium.Dankicks for an ambiguous side-switch that's around +8, so you can crush with Back+HK if you're behind (I used cr.HP xx VSkill2 xx cr.HP xx fireball to close; I'd intended Koryuken but messed up, haha) or it will come out as st.hk if you're in front (if that counterhits you're +4 and can jab, jab xx hard.Koryuken/EX.Dankicks). Both are safe if blocked. Need more time to test that all out though to make sure it definitely does not lose to 3-frame buttons. It absolutely loses to invincible reversals/VShift though, and they will definitely have bar for VShift at this point unless you caught them in VTrigger at the start.
*The follow-up of cr.HP isn't optimal as HK does 10 more damage but I messed up the cancel a few times so stuck to the one I'm confident with.
