How Eliot's Choryo command REALLY works

Choryo is displayed as 3_P in the move list, but the real input is a bit more complex than that.
This is a combo with many Choryo's in it:

It's actually a "Full Crouch" move.
so the "Switch Frame" speed affects its execution (skill info page 3)
so you're supposed to crouch dash (which is the fastest way to crouch in DOA, 1 frame) if you want to do many Choryos fast
but you can't crouch dash by doing 33 because Eliot has a 33P move which takes priority
so you do 623 or 663 instead which are still acceptable crouch dash inputs
soo you can't really buffer the P, you have to wait until you're crouching every time. You can buffer it if you're already crouching though. Remember that every Choryo puts you standing
proof of all of this: try doing free step 3 (press 963_ to do it). It doesn't matter how long you're pressing 3, when you press P the Choryo will never happen because you were never crouching
TL;DR
buffer 623/663 to crouch ASAP, press P (not buffered) once you're actually crouching

Update: alternatively, you can also use 663 for the crouch dash part

For the record, this applies to Hayate, Leifang, Christie and Bayman, as well.
