Andross was originally the lead scientist of the {{s|lylatwiki|Cornerian Defense Force}} alongside {{s|lylatwiki|General Pepper}}, both having an intense rivalry. Andross primarily focused on weapons for war, of which one experiment ended up destroying an entire city on {{s|lylatwiki|Corneria}}. For this, Andross was banished to the desolate planet {{s|lylatwiki|Venom}}. Years later, rumors popped up that Andross was becoming more active on Venom, so team Star Fox was sent to investigate. During this time, Andross hired Star Fox member {{s|lylatwiki|Pigma Dengar}} to betray and sabotage the team. Pigma's betrayal resulted in the supposed death of {{s|lylatwiki|James McCloud}}. | Andross was originally the lead scientist of the {{s|lylatwiki|Cornerian Defense Force}} alongside {{s|lylatwiki|General Pepper}}, both having an intense rivalry.

These | Several years after this incident, Andross began an invasion to conquer the Lylat System. The new Star Fox team, with assistance from the Cornerian Defense Force, would challenge Andross in a series of battles that would come to be known as the Lylat Wars. These event came to a head when [[Fox]] seemingly defeated Andross and saved the Lylat System. | ||
However, Andross survived the attack, albeit as a spirit, and discovered the {{s|lylatwiki|Krazoa Spirits}}. Andross learned that if all spirits were to be brought together, he could resurrect himself and continue his plans of conquest. He obtained one of the spirits by tricking [[Krystal]] into handing one over, then trapping her in a crystal to siphon her power for himself. Andross also tricked Fox into releasing all of the spirits so he could capture him and resurrect himself, but Fox defeated him, this time for good. After these events, {{s|lylatwiki|Andrew Oikonny}}, Andross' nephew, attempted to continue Andross' ambitions, even flying a ship that could transform into a form similar to Andross'. This "Andross wanna-be", as Falco derides it, is easily defeated by the Star Fox team. During the battles against the Anglar forces, a holographic projection of Andross claiming to be his ghost guarded his biochemical weapons on Titania. | However, Andross survived the attack, albeit as a spirit, and discovered the {{s|lylatwiki|Krazoa Spirits}}.

''Star Fox's archenemy. Whether it's a metallic manifestation of Andross or just a hologram is unknown, but from its outward appearance, it's safe to assume that it's not the fiend's true form. Andross occasionally sucks matter in and then violently exhales, sending out a cloud of metal tiles. Its eyes are its weak points.'' | |||

''This incarnation of Andross was so big as to be ridiculous, but it at least appeared to be a living being. Andross was once a brilliant scientist, but was banished from the galaxy for his dangerous experiments. From the planet Venom, he readied his troops and directed his sword of vengeance toward the Lylat System.'' | |||

In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', the original SNES version of Andross appears as an Assist Trophy, and thus as a collectible trophy. | |||

When Andross | When Andross appears out of an Assist Trophy capsule, he floats up off the screen and flies towards the back of the stage and spits polygon panels out of his mouth. Characters hit by the panels will take around 12% damage, while the tiles go right through the one who summoned him. Andross permanently appears during the event match [[Co-Op Event 19: Shadow of Andross|Shadow of Andross]], making it more difficult for the human players as {{SSBB|Fox}} and {{SSBB|Falco}} to KO {{SSBB|Wolf}}. | ||

Andross | Andross returns as an Assist Trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', keeping his ''Brawl'' behavior. | ||
===Trophies=== | However, one slight change was made to Andross when being summoned. Unlike ''Brawl'', where Andross lands in parts of the background that match the part of the stage where the player summoned him, now he always goes to the center of the background, regardless of where he was released. | ||
