:''Just one kooky subset of the diverse cast of enemies in EarthBound, these strange creatures are aliens in the employ of Giygas. Variations of the Starman race include Starman, Starman Jr., Starman Deluxe, and Starman Super. They all use PSI powers, but their strength differs depending on the level on which they're found.''

The Starman trophy appears in both versions. In {{forwiiu}} it is part of the ''Mother Series'' [[Trophy Box]].

:{{Flag|North America}} ''These alien henchmen serve Giygas, the chief villain of EarthBound. In Smash Bros., the assist trophy Starman will teleport around and fire off PSI moves like PK Beam γ or PK Beam Ω. You can defeat one summoned by an opponent, but they won't go down without a fight.''

:{{Flag|Europe}} ''Starmen, the evil Giygas's henchman in the Mother series, are renowned alien space assassins. Summon one in this game, and it'll teleport about, firing off attacks like PK Beam γ, which targets a foe, and PK Beam Ω, which fires across the whole stage in up to four directions. Starmen can be taken out, but...not easily.

Starman returns as an Assist Trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', acting similarly to how it did in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', albeit KOing it now earns a point. [[Training Mode]] describes their Assist Trophy with the following: ''Warps around the stage, firing shots created from PSI.'' It cannot be summoned on Garreg Mach Monastery, King of Fighters Stadium, Mushroomy Kingdom, and Norfair.

*The Assist Trophy and Smash Run versions use different skins. They use their grey colours from ''Earthbound'' as an Assist Trophy, and their white colours from ''EarthBound Beginnings'' in Smash Run.

*A reflected PK Beam γ KO'ing Starman in one hit in Smash Run may be a reference to the original ''Earthbound Beginnings''. In that game, PK Beam γ is a one-hit KO move that Starman can use, and one strategy to defeat it is to reflect its PK Beam γ back at it with the [[Franklin Badge]].
