==Stage Layout==
==Stage overview==
The battle takes place on the [[Great Fox]]. Unlike the [[Corneria]] stage, the battle is fought on the front view of the ship, in contrast to the side view. Characters can fight on any of the ship's four wings, and also on the tailpiece in the center of the stage to an extent. This tailpiece is also a hazard that makes it difficult to travel to the other side. The top two wings of the ship slope inwards while the bottom two wings slope outwards. [[Item]]s tend to roll off of the two bottom wings of the ship.


The battle takes place on the [[Great Fox]]. Unlike the [[Corneria]] stage, the battle is fought on the front view of the ship, in contrast to the side view.

The top two wings of the ship slope inwards while the bottom two wings slope outwards. Items tend to roll off the two bottom wings of the ship.
Every now and then, an [[Arwing]] or [[Wolfen]] will appear and start firing at the ship then will fly off. Any character that gets hit by the shots will take damage. Also, when the ship flies into the cave, sometimes characters will bounce back onto the stage when smacked upwards or towards the sides due to the top, left, and right blast lines being obstructed by the cave itself, which might save one from getting [[KO]]'d.
 
As with Corneria, Fox and Falco can perform a [[Smash Taunt]] on this stage, with the messages that appear being the same ones that are used on Corneria.
 
===Ω form and Battlefield form===
In ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', the [[Ω form]] and [[Battlefield form]] are set on a slightly redesigned version of [[Corneria]]'s Ω form from ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS''; however, it is resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The three [[soft platform]]s of the Battlefield form are metallic and are unique to this form. Arwing and Wolfen do not interact with the stages.

==Origin==
[[File:VenomSF64.png|thumb|left|200px|Venom as seen in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''.]]
The planet {{s|lylatwiki|Venom}} first appeared in ''[[lylatwiki:Star Fox (game)|Star Fox]]'' (''Starwing'' in the PAL region) and has appeared in numerous ''Star Fox'' titles since; however, this stage is based on its appearance as the last level of ''{{s|lylatwiki|Star Fox 64}}'' (''Lylat Wars'' in the PAL region), and is where the final boss, {{s|lylatwiki|Andross}}, is fought. In the ''Star Fox'' games, Venom is a barren, desolate planet full of steep cliffs and deep chasms of rock that the [[lylatwiki:Star Fox (team)|Star Fox team]] must maneuver through to reach Andross, who was exiled to the deadly planet due to his crimes against {{s|lylatwiki|Corneria}}. However, unlike as seen in this stage, Venom was not shown to have volcanic activity, except on a Battle mode stage in ''{{s|lylatwiki|Star Fox 64 3D}}'', which was released almost a decade after the debut of this stage.
 
In ''Star Fox 64'', Star Fox encountered various dangers on Venom, such as holes in the cliffsides and in the ground where enemy aircraft emerged to attack, giant, jagged rocks that emerged from the ground as soon as they got close, and a barrage of stone pillars that appeared to block their path. In the background of this stage, references to these obstacles can be seen.
 
The {{s|lylatwiki|Great Fox}}, Star Fox's mobile headquarters, acts as the main platform of the stage; however, at no point in ''Star Fox 64'' does the Great Fox fly over Venom's surface. Also in this stage are {{s|lylatwiki|Arwing}}s and {{s|lylatwiki|Wolfen}}s, flown by Star Fox and Star Wolf, respectively, that occasionally appear to act as small platforms. All three aircraft are based on their appearances in ''Star Fox 64'', and the Arwings apparently have one {{s|lylatwiki|Laser Upgrade}}, as they fire two lasers at once as opposed to the standard one.  


Every now and then, an [[Arwing]] or [[Wolfen]] will appear and start firing at the ship then will fly off. Any character that gets hit by the shots will take damage. Also, when the ship flies into the cave, sometimes characters will bounce back onto the stage when smacked upwards or towards the sides due to the top, left, and right blast lines being obstructed by the cave itself, which might save one from getting [[KO]]'d.
In ''Melee'' and ''Ultimate'', the Great Fox is based on its appearance in ''Star Fox 64''. Unlike its sister stage, Corneria, which was redesigned to its appearance in ''{{s|lylatwiki|Star Fox Zero}}'', the Venom planet is still based on ''Star Fox 64''.

'''{{GameIcon|ssbu}} 9.0.2'''
This stage is from ''[[Star Fox 64]]'s'' last level, Venom. While Venom made its first appearance in the SNES game ''[[Star Fox]]'', this stage is based around the ''Star Fox 64'' version. In both games, Venom is a barren deserted planet and this can be seen when flying over the planet. There is a point in ''Star Fox 64'' where the player is flying through deep valleys of rock and can choose which path they want to take. The deep valleys of rock is retained in ''Melee'', and this can be seen when the Great Fox traverses through them. Another similarity between Venom in ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Melee'' is that the ground and the clouds in the background look similar; however, Venom in ''Melee'' has volcanic activity, which is contrary to both ''Star Fox'' games.

In both ''Star Fox'' games, there are floating obstacles that the player has to dodge. Another obstacle in ''Star Fox 64'' are pillars or rock that will suddenly shoot upward from the ground. In certain spots in ''Star Fox 64's'' Venom, there are holes in the cliffs and ground where enemies dock their ships before attacking the Star Fox team. All of the aforementioned is retained in ''Melee's'' Venom.

Ever since the first Star Fox, the Star Fox team's main aircraft that they pilot are Arwings. In this stage, Arwings can be seen flying over the Great Fox. The design of the Arwing is the same as the design used in Star Fox 64. In Star Fox 64, there is a mercenary group called Star Wolf (who can be battled on Venom in Star Fox 64) and they have aircraft similar to Arwings called Wolfens. The design of the Wolfens in this stage resemble how they were designed in Star Fox 64. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1z81qoJWGA]

Venom (惑星ベノム, Planet Venom) is a starter stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

In All-Star Mode, this is where Falco and his teammates are fought.

Stage overview[edit]

The battle takes place on the Great Fox. Unlike the Corneria stage, the battle is fought on the front view of the ship, in contrast to the side view. Characters can fight on any of the ship's four wings, and also on the tailpiece in the center of the stage to an extent. This tailpiece is also a hazard that makes it difficult to travel to the other side. The top two wings of the ship slope inwards while the bottom two wings slope outwards. Items tend to roll off of the two bottom wings of the ship.

Every now and then, an Arwing or Wolfen will appear and start firing at the ship then will fly off. Any character that gets hit by the shots will take damage. Also, when the ship flies into the cave, sometimes characters will bounce back onto the stage when smacked upwards or towards the sides due to the top, left, and right blast lines being obstructed by the cave itself, which might save one from getting KO'd.

As with Corneria, Fox and Falco can perform a Smash Taunt on this stage, with the messages that appear being the same ones that are used on Corneria.

Ω form and Battlefield form[edit]

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the Ω form and Battlefield form are set on a slightly redesigned version of Corneria's Ω form from Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS; however, it is resized and reshaped to match Final Destination and Battlefield, respectively. The three soft platforms of the Battlefield form are metallic and are unique to this form. Arwing and Wolfen do not interact with the stages.

Origin[edit]

Venom as seen in Star Fox 64.

The planet Venom first appeared in Star Fox (Starwing in the PAL region) and has appeared in numerous Star Fox titles since; however, this stage is based on its appearance as the last level of Star Fox 64 (Lylat Wars in the PAL region), and is where the final boss, Andross, is fought. In the Star Fox games, Venom is a barren, desolate planet full of steep cliffs and deep chasms of rock that the Star Fox team must maneuver through to reach Andross, who was exiled to the deadly planet due to his crimes against Corneria. However, unlike as seen in this stage, Venom was not shown to have volcanic activity, except on a Battle mode stage in Star Fox 64 3D, which was released almost a decade after the debut of this stage.

In Star Fox 64, Star Fox encountered various dangers on Venom, such as holes in the cliffsides and in the ground where enemy aircraft emerged to attack, giant, jagged rocks that emerged from the ground as soon as they got close, and a barrage of stone pillars that appeared to block their path. In the background of this stage, references to these obstacles can be seen.

The Great Fox, Star Fox's mobile headquarters, acts as the main platform of the stage; however, at no point in Star Fox 64 does the Great Fox fly over Venom's surface. Also in this stage are Arwings and Wolfens, flown by Star Fox and Star Wolf, respectively, that occasionally appear to act as small platforms. All three aircraft are based on their appearances in Star Fox 64, and the Arwings apparently have one Laser Upgrade, as they fire two lasers at once as opposed to the standard one.

In Melee and Ultimate, the Great Fox is based on its appearance in Star Fox 64. Unlike its sister stage, Corneria, which was redesigned to its appearance in Star Fox Zero, the Venom planet is still based on Star Fox 64.

Tournament legality[edit]

Venom is banned in tournaments, primarily due to the fin in the center of the stage, which can easily cause infinite combos; the bottom wings also promote camping, and the blastlines are considered to be too close to the stage.

Update history[edit]
