Wolf (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)


 * This article is about Wolf's appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. For other uses, see Wolf O'Donnell.

Wolf (, Urufu) is a hidden character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Wolf was confirmed in the months leading up to the release via a Japanese leak of the game. He appears to be somewhat similar to Fox and Falco, although he differs from them in several ways. He's considered the "heavy" of the three, being stronger, taller, and slower (although his attacks are actually fast). His normal attacks are unique whereas his special attacks are similar to Fox's, but very different in function. Wolf was officially confirmed on March 31st, 2008. His Japanese voice actor is Hisao Egawa and his English voice actor is Jay Ward. Wolf can be unlocked with one of the three following ways, after beating Adventure Mode, go back to "The Ruins", skip the first door you pass when riding the second elevator down (with the purple spikes). Instead enter the second door at the bottom and defeat him, play 450 VS matches. Then defeat him afterwards, or with Boss Mode unlocked, finish Boss Mode as Fox or Falco.

Grabs and Throws

 * Pummel- Right knee. Deals 1%, but is very quick.
 * Forward Throw- Uppercuts the opponent forward.
 * Back Throw- Throws the opponent up and claws them backward.
 * Up Throw- Throws the opponent up and slashes them with both claws.
 * Down Throw- Throws the opponent on the ground and claws them.

Taunts
Up: Leans backwards and howls.

Side: Does a few kicks and says "What's the matter, scared?".

Down: Slaps one hand down and snarls.

Smash Taunt: In Lylat Cruise, Wolf can do various Star Fox Conversations by pressing down on the Control Pad in one frame.

Role in Subspace Emissary
Wolf is an optional character in Subspace Emissary, much like Toon Link and Jigglypuff. He only appears if the player enters a new door in The Ruins that appears after you've finished Subspace Emissary. That door will take them to Lylat Cruise, where Wolf appears for a fight. Other than that, he doesn't have a major role.

Trivia

 * When Wolf appears in Subspace Emmisary, the small tune which plays is the beginning of the N64 version of the Star Wolf Theme. However, SSBB uses the Star Fox: Assault version of Wolf, though the Star Fox: Assault version of his theme is unlockable.


 * Wolf's Landmaster Final Smash is the same one as Fox and Falco's Final Smashes except he uses a red and black colored Landmaster. Wolf never owned a Landmaster in the Star Fox series. The trophy states that he analyzed Fox's Landmaster and built his own which explains the color. It is the strongest of the three Final Smashes, but it does not last as long.
