→‎Origin: It is clear that Fortuna was the incorrect name, and our NIWA partner Lylat Wiki holds that the planet was always Fichina in spite of the in-game name on N64, so I feel this change is appropriate.

The '''Wolfen''' ({{ja|ウルフェン|Urufen}}, ''Wolfen'') is the name of the ship piloted by [[Wolf O'Donnell]] and his team, {{s|lylatwiki|Star Wolf}}. They are similar to team Star Fox's [[Arwing]]s.


'''Wolfen''' is the name of the star fighter [[Wolf O'Donnell]] and his team [[Star Wolf]] use. They are similar to [[Arwing]]'s in terms speed, power and braking.
==Origin==
The Wolfen was manufactured by [[Andross]] and {{s|lylatwiki|Pigma Dengar}} to counter the Arwing and prevent the Star Fox team from reaching Venom. <ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/starfox/comments/y8cwc9/finally_got_around_to_doing_translations/ STAR FOX 64 Official Game Guide Japan]</ref>  With greater offense capabilities, but worse defense, the Wolfen fighters were designed to quickly dispose of anyone who got in Andross' way. As Andross is said to be the original creator of the G-Diffusor system and theory, it comes equipped with such as well.  <ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/starfox/comments/y8cwc9/finally_got_around_to_doing_translations/ STAR FOX 64 Official Game Guide Japan]</ref>


== In [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] ==
The Wolfen first appears in ''Star Fox 64'' in the 3rd mission of the game on the planet Fichina (referred to as Fortuna in the original N64 version), when the Star Fox team arrive there to stop its base from self-destructing. They are suddenly stopped by Wolf and his Star Wolf team, each piloting their own ship. The ships reappear alongside the evil team in a few other missions. During ''Star Fox: Assault'', Star Wolf sported redesigned Wolfens, doing battle with them against Star Fox in the Sargasso Space Zone, though Wolf would later allow Fox to ride on the wing of Wolf's Wolfen on Corneria. The Wolfen could also be used in this game for the first time, being unlockable for the game's Versus Mode. During ''Star Fox Command'', the members of Star Wolf each customized their ships, with only that of Wolf appearing the same as the original Wolfen, while Leon and Panther changed theirs to fit their preferences.
The [[Wolfen]] appears in the [[Corneria]] stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee. It occasionally fires lasers at the characters on screen, the Wolfen doesn't target any character in particular. Once it has stopped flying, the Wolfen will then fly off the screen after a few seconds. If a character remains on it when it flies off the screen, that character will receive a [[Star KO]].
 
The Wolfen also appears as a [[Wolfen (Trophy)|Trophy]] in the game.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''==
[[File:Wolfen SSB.png|thumb|left|111px|Wolfen as it appears in ''Super Smash Bros.'']]
The Wolfen occasionally flies by in the background of [[Sector Z]], but does not attack the player.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
[[File:Wolfen-SSBM.png|thumb|Wolfen as it appears in ''Melee''.]]
A Wolfen appears in the [[Corneria]] and [[Venom]] stages, occasionally firing lasers at the characters on-screen. The Wolfen doesn't target any character in particular. In the Corneria stage, once it has stopped firing, the Wolfen will then fly off the screen after a few seconds. If a character remains on it when it flies off the screen, that character will receive a [[Star KO]].
 
It also appears in the opening movie, piloted by [[Wolf]] as he makes his cameo.
 
===Trophy===
The Wolfen trophy is obtained by clearing [[Adventure Mode]] in under 18 minutes 20 seconds or less.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''==
[[File:WolfOnScreenAppearanceSSBB.gif|thumb|250px|Wolf's on-screen appearance in ''Brawl''.]]
The Wolfen reappears in the [[Corneria]] stage as it did before and also makes an appearance in the [[Lylat Cruise]] stage. It appears briefly in both {{SSBB|Wolf}}'s [[on-screen appearance]] in which he ejects from it to enter on the battlefield, as well as a bonus scene of the [[Subspace Emissary]], in which Wolf ejects from the Wolfen and lands on the Lylat Cruise to face off the player. It's also notable that the Wolfen appears slightly different than the ''Star Fox: Assault'' version, where its wings are spread farther apart. The Wolfen also appears as a [[List of stickers (Star Fox series)|sticker]] in ''Brawl.''
 
===Trophy===
{{Trophy

When Team Star Wolf reappeared, they were piloting Wolfen II ships--improved versions with two laser cannons rather than one and the capability to reflect attacks by rolling.
