As a playable character
- Main Article: Fox (SSB)
Fox appears in the original Super Smash Bros. as one of the starting eight playable characters. Fox is a weak, but fast character. His Neutral B move is the 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, 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)
Fox returns in Super Smash Bros. Melee, retaining his role as a starting playable character. 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 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 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.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
- Main Article: Fox (SSBB)
Fox is a starting playable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. His appearance this time is based on his Star Fox Command appearance, but adds several extra details, such as an eyepiece. 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.
