The son of James McCloud, Fox is an expert pilot and has saved the galaxy from numerous threats. He has appeared in all three Smash Bros. games.

Brawl]]'', he is voiced by Jim Walker and Kenji Nojima.

==Character description==
Fox made his appearance in ''[[Star Fox]]'' for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1993. The leader of the Star Fox team, Fox led his team through the Lylat System to save the galaxy from the evil [[Andross]]. The game was a huge hit and has led to several sequels.
 
Though the sequel to Star Fox was canceled (when the game was nearly finished), Fox would return in the [[Nintendo 64]] smash hit ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' which revealed some key details about Fox's past in this 'updated' Star Fox. Fox's father, James McCloud, who was renowned as one of the greatest pilots of his time, was the leader of the original Star Fox team. Upon investigating the planet Venom, James was presumed killed by Andross. Seeking to avenge his father, Fox formed a new Star Fox team which consisted of [[Falco Lombardi]], [[Peppy Hare]] (who was a member of the original team), and [[Slippy Toad]]. At the end of Star Fox 64, Fox independently fought and killed Andross at the end of the adventure.
 
After this, Fox would be featured in his first fighting game in the original ''Super Smash Bros.'' and has appeared in every installment of the series since.
 
[[Image:Star_Fox.jpg|thumb|left|162px|Official artwork of Fox from Star Fox Adventures.]][[Image:FoxMcloud.jpg|thumb|left|130px|Fox as he appears in Star Fox Assault]]
Fox would then be featured again in ''Star Fox Adventures'' with a new starfox member, [[Krystal]]. Which was a departure from the original Star Fox games as it was more of an action/adventure game, which saw Fox rescuing Dinosaur Planet from (unknown at the time) Andross who was seeking to revive himself after the Star Fox team became a pale shadow of its former self. After this, Fox would return in ''[[Star Fox Assault]]'', which saw a reinvigorated Star Fox team saving the galaxy from a new threat called the Aparoids. A year later, Fox would return in ''[[Star Fox Command]]''.
 
Though he has faced many hardships, Fox is spurned on by the support of his team and by his memory of his father. And as long as he remembers this, the Lylat System will know peace for many ages.
 
==In ''Super Smash Bros.''==
===As a playable character===
:''Main Article: [[Fox (SSB)]]''
[[Image:FoxSSB.gif|right|thumb|Official artwork of Fox in ''Super Smash Bros.'']]Fox appears in the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' as one of the starting eight playable characters. He is based off his appearance in [[Star Fox 64]]. Fox is a weak, but fast character. His [[Neutral B]] move is the [[Blaster (Fox)|Blaster]] which sends one powerful energy beam at his opponents. His [[Up B]] is the [[Fire Fox]] which envelops Fox in flames and sends him flying in any direction. His [[Down B]] is the [[Reflector (Fox)|Reflector]], which serves as both an offensive and defensive move (it reflects any projectiles that come in contact with it).
 
===In Single-player===
In the game's single-player mode, Fox is fought on the [[Sector Z]] stage.
 
==In ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''==
===As a playable character===
:''Main Article: [[Fox McCloud (SSBM)]]''
[[Image:Foxmelee.jpg|120px|right|thumb|Fox, as he appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.]]Fox returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', retaining his role as a starting playable character. He is based off of his appearance in [[Star Fox 64]]. His moveset has not changed much, though his blaster has changed. The blaster will not cause his enemies to [[flinch]], but he can now rapid-fire his blaster without having to recharge it. His new [[Smash B]] move is the [[Fox Illusion]] which causes Fox to rush ahead in a blur and can be used as a recovery move.
 
===In Single-player===
In Melee's Adventure Game, Fox is fought on the [[Corneria (SSBM)|Corneria]] stage. After he is beaten, the player will then have to battle Fox again, this time with back-up from his wingmen. However, if Fox is beaten quickly and has unlocked Falco, the player will battle Falco instead of Fox.
 
Fox is featured in the following Event Matches:
*'''[[Event 13: Yoshi's Egg]]''': As [[Yoshi]], you must protect a Yoshi Egg from Fox, [[Pikachu]], and [[Donkey Kong]] on the [[Rainbow Cruise]] stage for 55 seconds.
*'''[[Event 20: All-Star Match 2]]''': Fox is the final opponent you must fight in this series of staged battles. Your character battles him on the [[Corneria]] stage, and your character has 2 stock while Fox has 1. With a timer of four minutes, you must defeat him and the other four characters with the overall time and life you have: [[Samus]], [[Link]], [[Zelda]], and [[Captain Falcon]].
*'''[[Event 23: Slippy's Invention]]''': The player must battle Fox and [[Falco]] on the [[Venom]] stage, but they are both equipped with a permanent [[Cloaking Device]]. Each character has 2 stock each.
*'''[[Event 36: Space Travelers]]''': As Ness, the player faces Samus, [[Kirby]], Fox, Captain Falcon and Falco. Ness battles the first three on the [[Fourside]] stage while fighting the last two on the [[Battlefield (SSBM)|Battlefield]] stage. Each character has one stock.
*'''[[Event 43: Birds of Prey]]''': As Fox, the player faces Falco and Captain Falcon on the [[Big Blue]] stage (friendly fire turned off).
 
===Trophies===
By tradition, Fox as a playable character is featured on its personal 3 trophies. Its normal trophy is acquired by beating the Classic mode with Fox on any difficulty, and its Smash Red and Smash Blue trophies are acquired the same way by beating the Adventure and All-Star modes, respectively.
 
His Classic mode trophy reads:

:'''Fox'''
:''Fox McCloud is the leader of a band of adventurers-for-hire known as Star Fox. Fox and his fellow pilots Peppy, Slippy, and Falco patrol the Lylat system in their mother ship, the Great Fox. From the cockpit of his Arwing, Fox leads the ceaseless pursuit of the evil scientist Andross, who doomed Fox's father.''
:*Star Fox, 03/93
 
==In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''==
:''Main Article: [[Fox (SSBB)]]''
[[Image:Foxssbb.jpg|120px|right|thumb|Fox, as he appears in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.]]Fox is a starting playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. His appearance this time is a mix between his [[Star Fox Assault]] and [[Star Fox Command]] appearances. It is also the first Smash Bros game where Fox's eyes are their proper color (green). His special moves are unchanged. His [[Final Smash]] summons the [[Landmaster]] Tank.  Fox gets in and the player directly controls the tank to hover, fire shots, "do a barrel roll", and move.  Other characters can actually stand on top of the tank, though it might be wiser to hide.
 
===Trophy Info===
''The leader of the commando unit for hire known as Star Fox. He uses both the team's mother ship, the Great Fox, and his personal Arwing fighter to challenge the evil scientist Andross. He made his name as an ace pilot but has lately shown himself also to be an adventurer with a knack for hand-to-hand combat.''
 
* Star Fox
* Star Fox: Command
 
 
 
===Fox (Assault)===
''The leader of the one and only Star Fox team. Fox McCloud has superb battle skills and is an expert pilot of both the Arwing and Landmaster. In on-foot battles, Fox starts with a blaster and continues on with four other types of weapons as he fights through the Aparoids. Fox also demonstrates his skills in air combat using the plasma cannons on the Arwing.''
