Great Fox is a large battle cruiser in the Star Fox series, and serves essentially as the mothership for Fox and his team. It made an appearance in Super Smash Bros. as a stage under the name Sector Z. Two stages in Super Smash Bros. Melee take place on Great Fox; Corneria and Venom.
The Corneria stage returns in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, but the newly introduced Star Fox themed stage, Lylat Cruise takes place on a different ship, Pleiades. The Great Fox can sometimes be seen in the background of the Lylat Cruise stage engaging in a space battle. The Great Fox plays a role in the adventure mode for Brawl, the Subspace Emissary, where a cutscene shows it battling against Meta Knight's ship, the Halberd. Ultimately, the Great Fox loses, and the Halberd takes hold of it and plants it into an ice covered mountain.
The Great Fox (taking its design from Star Fox: Assault) appears in the Orbital Gate stage in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, where players fight briefly on it. Other machines from the Star Fox series that appear in the Super Smash Bros. titles include the Arwing and the Wolfen.

The Great Fox falls into several categories, but we'll spare you the complicated jargon and just call it an assault carrier. Using three plasma engines for smooth warp travel, this ship is essential to the resupplying, maintenance, and recuperation of the Star Fox team. |
