Krystal
Krystal (クリスタル, Krystal) is a character from the Star Fox series. A later addition to Team Star Fox, she also serves as a love interest to Fox McCloud. ContentsOrigin[edit]Krystal was originally conceived as the protagonist of a late Nintendo 64 game by Rare called Dinosaur Planet. This title would not come to be as originally envisioned, as Nintendo requested that Rare transform this game into a Star Fox title and move production to the Nintendo GameCube (likely as Rare was being approached by other publishers at the time and the game’s release date being the day before the studio was bought out by Microsoft). Krystal made her official debut in Star Fox Adventures. At the beginning of the game, she wields a staff to assist her telepathic abilities. She eventually loses the staff before being imprisoned by Andross. Fox eventually finds the staff and uses it throughout the game. Krystal's appearance as an Assist Trophy is based off her appearance in Star Fox Adventures, and her ability to use the staff is based on the opening portion of said game. Ice Blast is the third upgrade for the staff which allows Fox to freeze enemies and environment objects solid for combat and puzzle solving. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl[edit]As a background character[edit]![]() Krystal in a Star Fox Smash Taunt in Brawl. Krystal was considered as a potential playable character during development, but was passed over in favor of Wolf, both because of time constraints and because Wolf's movement and animations would be more similar to Fox's and would require less development.[1] As one of the many Star Fox characters who can be contacted via the Star Fox Smash Taunt on Lylat Cruise. Krystal appears in conversations triggered by all three potential characters: Fox, Falco, and Wolf. Krystal also appears as a trophy and three stickers. Trophy[edit]
