Medals
As a general tip, while going for the game]'s medals, it is wise to avoid spending any of the "Grounds Gold" you've earned until you've gotten the "Wall Street Brawler" medal.Many medals can be earned in Versus Mode, which allows you to set up specific situations to earn certain medals. You can set up computer players, change teams, and choose the stage. You can even set the Madness henchmen as opponents if you select Hank and click between his eyes.
Hoarder Patrols
5 pointsTo earn this medal, you simply have to grab 3 powerups in any match before the opponent gets one. This can be done in any mode, and is one of the game's easiest medals to obtain. You'll most likely get it while going for the rest of the medals.
People Pancakes
5 pointsThis medal is earned by getting at least two opponents killed by the trash compactor in the Junkyard Stage (the medal calls it "Scrapyard", but the game calls it "Junkyard"). This is easily done in the second stage of Pico's story. Simply stand under the compactor and the enemies (and your ally) will follow you. Jump out from under it when you see it light up, and it should smash both opponents. However, the medal is actually easier if you allow yourself to get crushed because it ensures that your opponents won't move out of the way. This is another easy medal, and can be done in a variety of characters' stories.
C-C-Combo Breaker
10 pointsFor this, you need to parry 3 times in one jump. A "parry" is executed by holding the block button ("A") right before a hit connects. This can be done easily in any match that pits you against 3 opponents, such as Challenge 11. Jump and repeatedly mash the "A" key. Repeated attempts will eventually result in earning the medal.
Wile E. Ways
10 pointsHave the opponent fall off the stage 3 times in one match. This is most easily done in the "Portal" stage. You computer opponent will eventually fall off if you force it to chase you around the stage. Many stories have 1-on-1 battles in the Portal, one of which is the first stage of the Pico story.
There is also a video walkthrough of this medal on YouTube.
C-C-Combo Makers
25 pointsDo a total of 80 damage in one jump combo. Preferred characters for this medal are Pico, Samurai Asshole, and P-Bot (personally, I've only done it with P-Bot). These characters have heavy combos (used with the "D" key) that deal repeated damage in air. This might be easier with a powerup that increases attack, but it can be done without one.
Dimplomatically Challenged

Meat Shield
25 pointsGet an opponent to kill someone on his or her team with a projectile. This can be done in any team match. Just wait for a character to get the projectile powerup and stay behind that opponent's teammate. The opponent will shoot at you and hit the other opponent. Make sure you wait until the other opponent has low life so that it can be killed easily. An easy match for this is Challenge #2. The Madness henchmen have low health and can easily kill each other if one of them has a gun.
Survival Horror
25 pointsYou must play Survival mode (after buying it for 1000 gold) on OMFG difficulty and beat the first 5 opponents. You play in the Portal and fight Alloy, Pico, P-Bot, Nene, and Samurai Asshole. I got this playing as Pico, because he has a large amount of health and a good aerial combo. Try to get in hits and anticipate powerup appearances to give yourself an edge. If you get low on health, run around the stage until a health powerup appears. For a slight advantage, you might want to buy the Regeneration powerup so that it can appear. If the opponent happens to grab the Orbital powerup (if you've bought it), just avoid them until it disappears. Also, be wary of mines. For some reason, a mine placed on the middle platform by your opponent can hit you if you're directly under it. The medal will take some practice, but it is nowhere near impossible.
Wall Street Brawler
25 pointsEarn at least 5000 gold and enter a match to earn this medal. This means that you should not spend any gold until you get this medal. Keep in mind that the lower difficulties earn you less gold, so this might be difficult if you're playing on easy. I noticed that completing all challenges and all stories (besides Convict and Piconjo who must be purchased) on normal mode should earn you a little more than 5000 gold.
The Eventually Ending Story
50 pointsClear all 12 characters' stories. For the most part, this is easier than challenge mode. The major exception is the last match of Convict's story. You might want to play this on easy mode, but it is still possible in normal mode. Beating this particular match relies mostly on luck, so hope for good transformations and make sure to grab the powerups.
Trangressive Compulsive
100 pointsTo get this, complete all challenges, complete all stories, and buy everything. Make sure you also do the tutorial at some point, because it counts towards completion. You should get the medal when you enter a match with 100% completion (you can check your percentage on the data screen in the options menu).
