- Captain Falcon

Captain Falcon (full name Captain Douglas Jay Falcon) is an F-Zero racer, and also a secret bounty hunter with a mysterious past. In the Super Smash Bros. series, he appeared as a secret character in the first game, then returned as a default one in the sequel. But in its sequel, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, he appears as an unlockable character.

Super Smash Bros. Series
In Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Melee, he is the fastest character. His attacks, however, despite being powerful, are slow. The only exception is his attack when repeatedly pressing the A button. In Super Smash Bros., he was an unlockable character, unlocked by beating 1-P Mode in under 20 minutes with any character, and then beating him. However, in Super Smash Bros. Melee, he was a default character. He also added the attack, Raptor Boost, in Melee. Captain Falcon has a unique way of using weapons. For example, Captain Falcon is unable to smash the Sandbag away in Super Smash Bros. Melee ' s Home-Run Contest using the Homerun Bat. According to the trophy information of the Star Rod, it has the most power when it is used with a Smash Attack of Captain Falcon or Sheik. Captain Falcon will appear as a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but is no longer the fastest character in the game, being beaten only by Sonic the Hedgehog. He plays a role in The Subspace Emissary, apparently forming an alliance with Captain Olimar and later teaming with Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong to infiltrate a Subspace Army base. Captain Falcon's fighting techniques are shared with Ganondorf, who has similar abilites, but is slower and has more powerful attacks. Captain Falcon is voiced by Ryo Horikawa.

Profile Information from ''Super Smash Bros.
''A regular pilot in the great galactic race F-ZERO Grand Prix, Captain Falcon is skilled at collecting prize money. Much about his past remains hidden in shadow, but it's clear that many a villain held a powerful grudge against him.

Classic
''Usually a relentless bounty hunter, Captain Falcon shifts gears to become a race pilot once the F-Zero Grand Prix begins. His beloved racer, the Blue Falcon, can exceed the speed of sound, and he knows how to drive it; he'll go down as one of the all time-greats. Now 36 years old, Captain Falcon wears his F-Zero X visor.

Adventure
''Falcon's style is a balanced combination of raw power and speed. His attacks are slow, but when combined with Falcon's high mobility, he's a formidable combat force. The Falcon Punch packs the highest degree of destructive power, while the explosive Raptor Boost can be used to smash airborne foes into the depths.

All-Star
''The Knee Smash, used in midair on foes in front of you, is slow and has a short reach, but if it connects, it'll send foes flying a long way on a low trajectory. Falcon uses his Falcon Dive to grab an enemy in midair and fling them away with an explosive blast. He can do this technique repeatedly without landing, so it can also be used as a recovery move.

Captain Falcon
''A skilled F-Zero pilot and resourceful bounty hunter. All that's known of his past is that he hails from Port Town. He's won fame and fortune outracing his opponents in his beloved Blue Falcon. His incredible athleticism and never-say-die attitude makes him the pilot to turn to in times of trouble.''

Captain Falcon (Final Smash)
''Captain Falcon's Final Smash. His beloved ship, the Blue Falcon, roars onto the screen once he touches a foe in front of him. The enemy gets sent to a racetrack, at which point the Blue Falcon screams down at a ridiculous speed and launches the unlucky victim. What track is it? Where did the machine come from? This is one technique that's an utter mystery.''

Trivia
