Fox (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)


 * ''This article is about Fox's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. For other uses, see Fox McCloud.

Fox McCloud (フォックス・マクラウド, Fokkusu Makuraudo) has been confirmed for Super Smash Bros. Brawl. He keeps all of his previous moves from SSBM.

When he was revealed in the Nintendo World 2006 trailer, he was shown with his blaster in his hand at all times, leading to much speculation over how his attacks might change in Brawl. However, his gun is shown in its holster in all subsequent screenshots shown at the Dojo.

One of Fox's new taunts involves him being surrounded by fire (similar to Fire Fox) and yelling.

His On-Screen Appearance is the same as in Super Smash Bros., where he jumps out of an Arwing.

Fox is now more floaty than he was in Super Smash Bros. Melee, with a shorter blaster range and a downwards shinespike. Fox players can still shorten the length of his Fox Illusion, and the Fox Illusion can also auto-sweetspot the ledge (like how many characters' Up Special, including his own, can). His Reflector attack is roughly twice as large when first activated.

Role in The Subspace Emissary
An Arwing is seen engaging the battleship Halberd, but is soon struck and begins to fall toward it. This causes Kirby and a princess to be blown overboard in its wake.

It is later shown that the Arwing crash-landed at the edge of a jungle, near a lake. Diddy Kong discovers the Arwing, but Rayquaza rises from the lake and territorially attacks him. As Diddy is snatched up by the provoked Pokémon, Fox springs from the cockpit of the burning Arwing and proceeds to effortlessly rescue Diddy from the clutches of the serpentine Pokémon using his Fox Illusion and Reflector. After repulsing the giant Pokémon, Fox attempts to leave, but is dragged away by Diddy deeper into the jungle. Soon, they meet up with Bowser who tries to capture one of them as a trophy. Falco Lombardi shows up from nowhere in his Arwing and saves the two from Bowser and his trophy gun.

Later on, as Peach and Sheik are making their escape with the help of Snake, Fox is seen again attacking the Halberd in his Arwing when he accidentally shot the Arwing's blasters near Peach. Sheik does a very high range teleport on top of the Arwing and Breaks open the Cockpit. Both Sheik and Fox fall to back on the Halberd. They start running towards each other at high speeds and just before they break into a fight, Peach randomly offers them a cup of tea. Both of them settle their differences and accept the tea.
