The Fighting Wire Frames (謎のザコ敵軍団, Nazo no Zako Tekigun Dan, also known as the Mysterious Small Fry Enemy Army Group) are common enemies in various 1-player modes in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

Wire Frames are, true to their name, a framework of pink lines in a humanoid shape. Their faces are comprised of the Super Smash Bros. logo, and a red heart-like object can be found within their chests. Wire Frames come in male and female varieties, modeled after Captain Falcon (and by association, his clone Ganondorf) and Zelda, whose standard attacks they borrow.

Wire Frames are unable to use Captain Falcon's and Zelda's B attacks, and thus are limited in their recoveries. To compensate their lack of recoveries, Wire Frames can jump high and fall slowly. Wire Frames are also unable to charge smashes and some of their moves are much weaker versions of Captain Falcon's and Zelda's attacks. Two obvious examples are the knee, which does not have the power or electricity in the Wire Frame version, and Zelda's lightning kicks, which also lack electricity. Oddly enough, the Male Wire Frame throws more like Ganondorf, and thus, is very good at chainthrowing.

Wire Frames appear in all modes of Multi-Man Melee, in Battlefield during Adventure mode, and in Event 37: Legendary Pokemon. Generally, they are weak and light fighters. Male Wire Frames are slightly more aggressive than Female Wire Frames; males always home towards the player's character, whereas the females throw attacks more or less randomly.

In Cruel Melee, however, all Wire Frames are extremely aggressive, and are also handicapped to be extremely powerful and harder to knock off-stage. Characters cannot survive easily among the Wire Frames because of their amplified power and aggressive edge-guarding.

An April Fools Joke said you could unlock Tails and Sonic by defeating 20 Wire Frames in Cruel Melee.

Wire Frames are considered to be successors to the Fighting Polygon Team and the predessors of the Fighting Alloy Team. Template:Smash Melee
