History
Super Smash Bros. Melee
- Main article: SmashWiki:Roy (SSBM)
Roy is an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Melee, unlocked by beating Classic or Adventure Mode as Marth and then beating Roy. Roy has a moveset similar to Marth's. However, Roy's attacks are strongest at the center of his blade, unlike Marth's. In general, Marth's tipped attacks are stronger than Roy's center-hits, but the center of Roy's sword is larger. In addition, Roy's special moves all deal fire damage.
Roy's neutral special move is Flare Blade, which has Roy charge a sword strike that deals an explosion. His side special move is Double-Edge Dance, which is similar to Dancing Blade. His up special move is Blazer, which sends Roy into the air as he slashes upward, dealing fire damage to opponents. Finally, his down special move is Counter, which functions similarly to Marth's Counter.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U
- Main article: SmashWiki:Roy (SSB4)
Roy is a downloadable character along with Mewtwo, Lucas, and Ryu in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. He was announced to release the same day as Lucas and Ryu, on June 14, 2015. His appearance is mostly the same as it is in Super Smash Bros. Melee, based on his appearance in Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, but it now draws elements from his appearance in Fire Emblem Awakening. Roy's moveset is unchanged, though he now attacks with his sword held in a reverse grip, and his overall movement speed is greater than it is in his previous appearance, though he has also been made heavier. Roy is also given a Final Smash: Critical Hit.
Profiles and statistics
Super Smash Bros. Melee Trophy information
| Type | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Classic | File:Trophy76.PNG | The son of the lord of Pharae Principality, Roy was studying in Ostia when the Kingdom of Bern invaded League of Lycia. His father fell ill at this time, so Roy assumed leadership of Pharae's armies. After his fateful meeting with the Princess Guinevere, his destiny became inextricably linked with the fate of the entire continent. |
| Adventure | File:Trophy77.PNG | While Roy's moves are well balanced, he's a little on the slow side, and doesn't excel at midair combat. His blade, the Sword of Seals, gives him excellent reach, and makes his Double-Edge Dance slightly different than Marth's Dancing Blade. When it's fully charged, Roy's destructive Flare Blade delivers an instant KO. |
| All-Star | File:Trophy78.PNG | Roy's blade is different than Marth's: he does the most damage hitting with the center of his sword. So, a fearless advance into the arms of his foe is Roy's best bet. Blazer is a bit slower than Marth's Dolphin Slash, but it's still a mighty attack that sets anyone it strikes aflame. Roy's attack after using Counter differs slightly from Marth's. |

Palutena's Guidance
The following dialogue applies also to Mewtwo, Lucas, and Ryu, all DLC characters like Roy.
- Pit: Who is THAT?
- Palutena: I have no data on this fighter. I can't believe it!
- Viridi: It must be an intruder from another dimension!
- Pit: Whoever it is, the goal remains the same: to fight and win!
Trivia
- Super Smash Bros. Melee was Roy's first appearance in any Nintendo game. He would later star in the Japan-only game Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi (titled Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade in Super Smash Bros. Brawl). His appearance in Super Smash Bros. Melee was advertising for his later appearance in said game.Template:Refneeded Additionally, Roy only speaks Japanese in all versions of the game, which he was voiced by Jun Fukuyama. Roy along with Marth was originally going to appear only in the Japanese version of Super Smash Bros. Melee, but Nintendo of America stated to keep them in the game.
- In Super Smash Bros. Melee's Classic Mode, Roy never appears as a CPU player at all, unlike Marth and the other fighters.
- In Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, one of Marth's colour changes resembles Roy.
