"Falcon PUNCH!"

- Captain Falcon



Captain Falcon (full name Captain Douglas Jay Falcon however just called Captain Falcon for short.) is an F-Zero racer, and also a secret bounty hunter with a mysterious past. His only connection with the Marioverse is the Super Smash Bros. series, where he appeared as a secret character in the first game, and then returned as a default one in the sequel. It is rumoured he will again return in the Wii sequel, Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

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.

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'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.

Super Smash Bros. Melee Attacks

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.''

Trivia

 * One of Captain Falcon's alternate costumes is that of his evil clone, Blood Falcon. He wears his red clothing, and even has a patch on his uniform saying "Blood Falcon".
 * Although he didn't make a personal appearance, his F-Zero racer, the Blue Falcon, appeared in Nintendo Monopoly. It acted as a Station, replaced Pennsylvania Railroad, and costed $200 dollars, just like all stations.
