'''Roy''' is a fifteen-year old swordsman from the [[fireemblem:Fire Emblem (series)|''Fire Emblem'' series]], who made his debut in the crossover game, ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. His inclusion in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' was to promote and advertise his upcoming appearance in the Japan-only game, ''[[fireemblem:Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade|Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade]]''.{{refneeded}} Since then, he has made subsequent minor appearances in other ''Fire Emblem'' games, and returned as a DLC playable character for ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''.
 
==History==
===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''===

{{main|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. Also like Marth, Roy's lines are all the same as in the original Japanese game, reflecting the Japan-only status of the ''Fire Emblem'' series at the time.
 
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 (Fire Emblem)|Blazer]], which sends Roy into the air as he slashes upward, dealing fire damage to opponents. Finally, his down special move is [[Counter (Fire Emblem)|Counter]], which functions similarly to Marth's Counter.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''===
{{main|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 has been updated from ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' to resemble a combination of his appearance as a [[fireemblem:Great Lord|Great Lord]] in ''Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade'' and his appearance as a in ''[[fireemblem:Fire Emblem: Awakening|Fire Emblem Awakening]]''. Like in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', Roy's attacks are strongest when hitting closer to the hilt of the blade. While his special moveset has not changed from his previous appearance, some of Roy's other moves and animations have been altered or replaced to further differentiate him from Marth, and he now attacks with his sword held in a reverse grip. His overall movement speed is also greater than in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', though he has also been made heavier. Roy has also been given a [[Final Smash]]: [[Critical Hit]], which operates differently from Marth and [[Lucina]]'s version of the attack and involves him swinging his sword overhead to trap opponents before slashing them.

|''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.''

|''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.''

|''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.''

His side special, Double-Edge Dance, changes for each strike after the first depending on whether you hold up or down while attacking.''

====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 ''[[fireemblem:Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi|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.{{refneeded}} Additionally, Roy only speaks Japanese in all versions of the game, which he was voiced by [[wikipedia:Jun Fukuyama|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.
*Roy is the only character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' who does not appear at all in Classic Mode, neither as an ally nor an opponent.
*In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]'', one of Marth's colour changes resembles Roy.
