- “Show me your moves!”
- —Captain Falcon, Super Smash Bros.
Captain Falcon is a character from the F-Zero series. He is an F-Zero racer and a secret bounty hunter, with a mysterious past. In the Super Smash Bros. series, he appears as a playable character that has alternated between being readily available (Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U) or unlockable (Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate).
Throughout the Super Smash Bros. series, Captain Falcon is known for his blend of speed and power, as well as his various signature moves, such as the Falcon Punch and Knee Smash. In addition, the Male Wire Frame and Red Alloy are modeled after Captain Falcon, having some of the exact same attacks and similar idle poses. In the Super Smash Bros. series, Captain Falcon is voiced by Ryō Horikawa, speaking English with a false American accent.
While Captain Falcon's other Mario-related crossover appearances are very limited, his vehicle, the Blue Falcon, and other elements from his home series have featured prominently in later Mario Kart games (with the Blue Falcon appearing as a kart).
History
Club Nintendo comics
Captain Falcon makes a brief cameo appearance in "Super Mario: Im Rausch der Geschwindigkeit". When Mario and Yoshi are speeding down the road to rebel against the new speed limit law, one panel shows them speeding past Captain Falcon in the Blue Falcon.
Super Smash Bros. series
Captain Falcon has appeared as a playable character in every game in the Super Smash Bros. series released thus far. He is readily available in Super Smash Bros. Melee, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS, and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, whereas he is unlockable in Super Smash Bros. and Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
Super Smash Bros.
Captain Falcon is an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros., unlocked by clearing 1-P Mode in under 20 minutes and defeating him on Planet Zebes (since there is no stage based on his own series in this game). Despite having a slow walking speed, Captain Falcon has the fastest running speed. His attacks, however, despite being powerful, are for the most part slow. His design in this game is based on his design from F-Zero X, though his outfit is indigo instead of blue.
Captain Falcon's special attacks are unique in that none of them are based upon any aspect of his series of origin. His special moves are the Falcon Punch, which involves Captain Falcon throwing a delayed, yet powerful, fiery punch; Falcon Kick, which has Captain Falcon performing a flame-engulfed flying kick; and Falcon Dive, in which Falcon leaps and causes a small explosion against an opponent he makes contact with.
Captain Falcon is also unique in that he has a total of six playable alternate color schemes beginning with this installment, with two of the recolors being team battle exclusive. One of Captain Falcon's alternate costumes is that of his evil clone, Blood Falcon, including a patch on his uniform saying "25 - Blood Hawk", which corresponds to the number and name of Blood Falcon's own F-Zero Racer. Another one of his colors recolors the original, brighter colors used in the F-Zero series. Captain Falcon has the most color changes of the selectable characters in the game, totaling six.
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Template:Main-external Captain Falcon appears in Super Smash Bros. Melee, this time as a default character instead of an unlockable character (a trait shared with Ness). Captain Falcon also appears as an opponent in Adventure Mode, All-Star Mode, and Event Matches 12, 17, 20, 33, 36, and 43. He is also one of the random characters in Trophy Tussle 1, 2, and 3. Captain Falcon's fighting techniques are shared with Ganondorf, who has similar abilities, but is much slower and has more powerful attacks.
In the transition to Melee, many of Captain Falcon's moves, such as his smash attacks and neutral aerial, have been completely changed and updated. He also received the side special move Raptor Boost, in which he charges forward to throw a flame-engulfed punch that differs depending on his position: he throws an uppercut while grounded, or an overhand while airborne.
Captain Falcon has a unique way of using certain items in this game. For example, when using a Home-Run Bat, Captain Falcon slams the opponent down and then up again, instead of hitting them across the screen. 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.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Captain Falcon appears as an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and can be unlocked by clearing stage 20 in the Subspace Emissary, playing 70 versus matches, or by clearing Classic Mode in 12 minutes on at least Normal difficulty. However, he has been superseded by Sonic the Hedgehog as the fastest runner. Captain Falcon's design is now primarily based on F-Zero GX, though he wears a scarf similar to his design in F-Zero: GP Legend. Captain Falcon's Final Smash is the Blue Falcon, in which he summons the machine to run over any players he catches.
The Subspace Emissary
In the Subspace Emissary, Captain Falcon saves Captain Olimar and his Pikmin from a giant R.O.B. Later, he and Olimar save Donkey Kong with the help of Diddy Kong and they join a team with them. After getting through the Subspace Bomb Factory, they meet up with Samus Aran and Pikachu but soon, Ganondorf appears and gets all R.O.B.s in the factory to burn the Ancient Minister and detonate Subspace Bombs to create a giant hole in space. The Minister turns out to be a R.O.B. himself, who joins Falcon's team, and then, after the Subspace Army is taken care of, the whole team decides to leave the area.
Captain Falcon calls his Falcon Flyer and after everyone gets on, they are attacked by Meta Ridley, whom must be defeated in a certain time limit. they all fly to The Canyon where they meet up with everyone else. Everyone enters Subspace and find themselves being turned into trophies by Tabuu. King Dedede and his group then arrive and revive Captain Falcon and most of the others until everyone is revived and able to take on Tabuu.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U
Template:Main-external Captain Falcon appears as a default character in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. His moveset has remained overwhelmingly the same in regard to aesthetics, but it has undergone noticeable mechanical changes, which notably improve his combo game.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Captain Falcon returns as an unlockable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Captain Falcon is faster on the ground and in the air, and Raptor Boost no longer leaves him helpless in the air. However, his combo game has been slightly toned down.
In the World of Light, Captain Falcon is present when the fighters oppose Galeem for the first time. When Galeem begins to vaporize the fighters with a barrage of energy beams, Captain Falcon attempts to flee in his Blue Falcon, but he too is vaporized before he can board it.

Special moves
Falcon Punch
Template:Main-external Falcon Punch is Captain Falcon's standard special move. While the move is original to the Super Smash Bros. games and does not originate in F-Zero, it essentially became his signature move, to the point that it was occasionally mentioned and used in F-Zero media.
When using this move, Captain Falcon holds his arm back, charges it up, and then throws a powerful punch that is engulfed by a large, falcon-shaped flame as he yells, "FALCON... PUNCH!" Although it is renowned for its significant power, if Captain Falcon is attacked during the charging process, the attack is automatically canceled. As of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Captain Falcon can turn around while charging the attack, which gives the attack more power. The player can also hear a falcon shriek when doing this.
In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, the Falcon Punch's first custom variant is Falcon Dash Punch, in which Captain Falcon dashes forward as he performs the punch, though it deals less damage and he is vulnerable before attacking. The second variant is Mighty Falcon Punch, which takes longer to charge up and is actually weaker, despite its description stating it is more powerful.
Ganondorf's Warlock Punch functions similarly, but is much slower, more powerful and, as of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, protects Ganondorf from being launched.

The second is Wind-up Raptor Boost, in which Captain Falcon steps back before charging forward; the move also charges faster, but at the cost of slightly less power and travel distance.
Ganondorf's Gerudo Dragon in Super Smash Bros. Melee functions similarly. However, it deals much more damage and launches the opponent diagonally upward, regardless of whether or not the move is used in the air or not. As of Super Smash Bros.

Profiles and statistics
Super Smash Bros.
- Bio: 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.

28 | Capt. Falcon (Classic) |
F-Zero 08/91 |
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. | |
29 | Capt. Falcon [Smash] (Adventure) |
: Falcon Punch Smash B: Raptor Boost |
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. | |
30 | Capt. Falcon [Smash] (All-Star) |
Up & : Falcon Dive Down & B: Falcon Kick |
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. |
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
- Website bio: "He’s making his entrance a little late, but here he is—the famous F-Zero pilot, Captain Falcon! This time around, he’s bringing his pride and joy, the F-Zero machine called the Blue Falcon, to the brawl. This inclusion ought to boost his macho, tough-guy reputation significantly."

Captain Falcon | SNES F-Zero (08/1991) GCN F-Zero GX (08/2003) |
In the F-Zero racing scene, Captain Falcon uses his Blue Falcon to win big. His origin largely a mystery, he's made his way to the Smash Bros. battlefield to prove his worth outside the cockpit. He's got speed and power, and his distinct Falcon Punch leaves a dent. Start it in the air to surprise your foes! | We love it when this F-Zero pilot from Port Town takes a break from racing the Blue Falcon to take on challengers in brawls. His balance of speed, power and weight is spot on, and his slow but mighty Falcon Punch is oh so sweet when it finally connects. Try starting the attack in mid-air and punching your way into a frantic fray! | ||
Captain Falcon (Alt.) | SNES F-Zero (08/1991) GCN F-Zero GX (08/2003) |
Captain Falcon's default down special, Falcon Kick, is no ordinary kick—it surges forward in a fiery blaze. It's a versatile attack that moves sideways on the ground and diagonally down in the air. His forward air attack, Knee Smash, can send an enemy flying for miles if hit just right. | The captain's Falcon Kick isn't just any old kick - it blazes either to the side or diagonally down to terrorise the enemy. Its speed also makes it top-notch for surprise attacks! Another move to try out is his forward air attack, Knee Smash. If you get as close to someone as you can before using it, it can launch them miles! | ||
Blue Falcon | N/A | Captain Falcon's Final Smash lets him pull opponents into the middle of an F-Zero race-where competitors have been known to break the speed of sound-and run them over with his racing machine, the Blue Falcon. If he manages to grab you, there's no escape. The impact launches its victims diagonally upward. |
Blue indicates exclusive to the Wii U version.
Palutena's Guidance
- Pit: Whoa... It's Captain Falcon!
- Viridi: Oh, he's a captain! What ship does he command?
- Pit: I think he's more like a pilot or something.
- Viridi: All these fighters have tons of skill and experience, but you can still hold your own. If we brought vehicles into the picture, though, that would be a totally different story.
- Pit: Good thing that's not the case. I'd be no match for an F-Zero machine or an Arwing.
- Viridi: Plus, those G-Diffuser systems are terrible for the environment.
- Pit: Uh, you sure know a lot about space machinery. For being the goddess of nature and all.
- Palutena: Anyway, if you're near Captain Falcon, watch out for his jump-and-Falcon Punch combo.

"A fighter that possesses both speed and power! But in exchange, he is frequently left open. Being able to successfully land his neutral special, Falcon Punch, can greatly influence the battle in multiplayer matches."
