{{cquote|''Where his leader, Fox, has blinding speed, Falco has his own distinct skills and advantages.''|cite=Description from Falco's trophy.}}
'''Falco''' ({{ja|ファルコ|Faruko}}, ''Falco'') is a [[unlockable character|hidden]] character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He is a clone of {{SSBM|Fox}}, with many of the same moves. However, some of his moves have different properties, making their playstyles somewhat different. Falco is voiced in all regions of ''Melee'' by Hisao Egawa, who voices him in ''Star Fox 64''.

Falco is currently ranked 2nd on the ''Melee'' tier list, making him the highest ranked unlockable character, clone character, and newcomer all while this being his best placement in the series marginally. Falco has many combo openers and the options to extend them, most notably a frame 1 launcher in his [[Reflector]] and a frame 5 [[down aerial]] that spikes powerfully. These tools allow him to easily chain together highly damaging strings that are hard to [[DI]] out of. He also possesses very effective edgeguarding options, such as his back air, forward and down smashes, and his aforementioned down air. Falco also has one of the best neutral game options among the entire cast with his {{b|Blaster|Falco}}, as it allows him to pressure from afar and approach noncommittally.

Falco, however, is not flawless; he suffers from being light yet having extremely high falling speed and low horizontal air speed. These flaws make him extremely vulnerable to chaingrabs and combos, while his low weight makes him among the easiest to KO horizontally. Additionally, both of his recovery options travel very short distances, giving Falco one of the worst recoveries in the game. Regardless of these flaws, Falco's strengths greatly overwhelm his weaknesses and he has amazing matchups, lacking any negative ones (making him and Fox in ''Melee'', {{SSB|Pikachu}} in ''Smash 64'' and {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} in ''Brawl'' the only characters with no negative matchups) and having only a handful that are considered even.

==How to Unlock==
Players can unlock Falco by completing 100-Man Melee with any character within any time limit. Alternatively, players can take part in 300 VS. matches to unlock him.

When being fought, Falco will appear on {{SSBM|Battlefield}}, with the music from [[Corneria]] playing.

==Attributes==
Due to being a clone of Fox, he possess a similar archetype: he possesses rather high speed to quickly overwhelm the opponent as well as a slew of effective finishers both on the ground and in the air. Contrary to what Falco's in-game trophy says, he does not sacrifice offensive power at all to gain increased jumping prowess; in fact, Falco seems to have gained even more options for KOs, attacks, and combos at a variety of percentages over Fox. Falco's attributes include high [[traction]] (giving Falco a somewhat short but quick wavedash), the highest [[falling speed]] in the game, and low [[air speed]] without momentum from his dash accounted for.

Falco's primary strength is his raw ability to KO without compromising too much speed or [[combo]] ability; many of Falco's KOing moves are very fast yet powerful with relatively low startup and ending lag. Falco's sliding forward smash covers a good distance, KOs easily at 90% and makes for a good edgeguard option. Falco's down smash is a powerful semi-spike that is also useful for edgeguarding. Falco's down tilt can KO some characters at as low as 90%; although it is a short ranged attack, it also comes out quickly. Falco's aerial KOing options are also highly varied; Falco's neutral and back aerial attacks are fast with high knockback and duration, and his down aerial is among the most feared attacks in the game; with no sourspot, high speed, spike properties, and a long duration, Falco can quickly and efficiently KO almost any character at low percentages if used correctly. A grounded down aerial can easily combo into a forward smash for yet another deadly KO option.

Falco's [[approach]] is also highly effective; with a very versatile projectile in his [[Blaster (Falco)|Blaster]], Falco can perform the [[short hop laser]] technique, either as a pressure option or as a way to approach. Performing this technique close to opponents almost guarantees free grabs, smashes, or ways to start shine combos. Coupled with low-lag aerials, a short short hop and a high falling speed, Falco has among the best SHFFLs in the game, giving him an incredible aerial approach. On the ground, many of Falco's attacks, while short-ranged, pack good power and relatively low ending lag; despite a short wavedash and an average dashing speed, Falco can still use these two to his advantage, with them being integral to his superb combo ability.

Falco sacrifices a bit of his clone's speed for power, but still excels at performing devastating combos. Many of Falco's approach options also make for great combo starters as well. The core of Falco's combo ability lies in his good SHFFLs and ability to waveshine. Falco's primary form of comboing comes in the form of his [[pillar]], which is notorious for wearing [[shield]]s down quickly. Pillaring, in its most basic form, is simply chaining the upward vertical knockback of Falco's shine into the spiking hitboxes of his down aerial. To keep his moves fresh, Falco can combo into his other moves, most notably his down and up tilts, wavesmashes, his up throw, and his back and neutral aerials. Falco's down tilt and up throw are viable substitutes for his shine, while his up tilt racks up damage and segues directly into more shines. His smashes also rack up damage quickly but also make excellent KO options after enough beatings from the pillars have been dealt. Jump-canceled shines combo directly into back aerials and neutral aerials. Should the opponent DI close the ground, Falco can chase his opponents with multiple waveshines, depending on the direction. Falco can alternatively wear down shields by weaving back and forth with waveshining. 

Additionally, Falco's grab and throw game is decent. Falco's grab range is above-average (tenth longest in the game), and his throws have multiple options; his down throw can potentially combo into a down tilt or start a shine combo, his up throw can start up aerial combos, and his forward and back throws can start edgeguards. However, although he can chain throw floaty characters with his forward throw, he lacks a reliable chain throw, his throws have poor damage output, and his down throw can be teched, leaving him vulnerable. Furthermore, unlike Fox's up throw, which can reliably set up into aerials at certain percents, Falco has a harder time securing follow-ups from his up-throw. This is because the lasers Falco shoots during his up throw animation have hitstun; and therefore, they can be [[Smash DI|SDI]]'d by the opponent.

Falco's properties, however, also compose his weaknesses. As with Fox, Falco is light (the 6th lightest character in the game), and is therefore able to be KO'd through the sidelines without difficulty, despite Falco being difficult to KO through the ceiling because of said falling speed. Additionally, despite his high jumps and ability to [[wall jump]], Falco's recovery is among the worst in the game; due to a low air speed and a high falling speed, Falco cannot maneuver effectively off-stage. His up special move, [[Fire Bird]], is also short and easy to gimp; due to its linear nature, attacks such as {{SSBM|Marth}}'s [[Counter]], {{SSBM|Link}}'s [[Spin Attack]], and {{SSBM|Mario}}'s [[Cape]] can easily knock Falco away from the ledge when using the moves. Additionally, due to its inability to harm attackers while it charges, Falco is vulnerable to any attack while using the move, particularly meteor smashes or spikes; with correct timing, opponents with reliable spikes, such as Marth or even another Falco, can easily gimp his recovery. As such, Falco is primarily reliant on his side special, [[Falco Phantasm]] to recover; however, even that doesn't travel a significant distance, and it still suffers from the linear problems of Fire Bird. To his merit, however, Falco can angle his Fire Bird in many different directions, and he can additionally shorten his Falco Phantasm to avoid going on stage and into the edge, mixing up his recovery options and leaving the opponent guessing. Additionally, Falco's recovery moves have slightly shorter startup lag than Fox's, which can be useful when mixing up the opponent.

Falco's high falling speed also makes him a target for chain throws, especially from characters such as Marth and Peach, though it also gives him the 3rd highest vertical endurance among ''Melee'' characters, despite being tied for being the 5th lightest character in the game (only {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}} and {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, two much heavier characters by comparison, surpass him in this regard). Falco, along with Fox, has the dubious distinction of having an entire combo named for KOing him easily simply due to his high falling speed (the [[space animal slayer]]).

Overall, Falco can be considered to be a slower, but stronger and more combo-heavy version of Fox; while his overall speed is only average among the other characters in the game, his attack speed remains very fast and he can easily land very damaging combos in a short amount of time, sometimes even leading to death for the other player if they cannot DI correctly. Combined with relatively safe approaches against nearly every character in the game, it is possible to make defending against Falco difficult, even at top-level play. Falco has many tools for offense and defense, so players should use his arsenal accordingly to gain the upper hand.

===Similarities with {{SSB|Fox}} from ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''===
It has been said that Falco's play-style in ''Melee'' is very similar to {{SSB|Fox}}'s in ''Super Smash Bros.'' His special moves are arguably the most obvious. Below is the list of similarities:
*{{buff|Both Fox in ''Smash 64'' and Falco in ''Melee'' are heavier than Fox in Melee.}}
*{{change|Both blasters are slower and cause hitstun.}}
*{{change|Both [[Fire Bird]] and ''Smash 64'' [[Fire Fox]]  travel less distance, but are more likely to KO.}}
*{{change|Fire Bird can KO at the top at a reasonable percent, but does not have a hitbox while it is charging.}}
*{{buff|Forward smashes are much stronger (Fox's in ''Smash 64'' is a little stronger than Falco's in ''Melee'').}}
*{{buff|Down smashes have more semi-spike ability due to their stronger knockback.}}
*{{buff|Down tilts are close in damage (13% and 12%) and both produce decent vertical knockback, both being much stronger than Fox's down tilt in ''Melee''.}}
*{{change|Up aerials are easier to sweetspot, but are weaker.}}

===PAL differences===
Like some other characters, Falco received minor changes in the [[PAL]] version of ''Melee''. Although these changes slightly nerf him, they do not significantly impact his competitive viability.

*{{nerf|The latter half of down aerial doesn't [[spike]] but instead hits opponents on the [[Sakurai angle]] with drastically lower horizontal knockback, halving the time the move is able to spike.}}
*{{nerf|Fox can now tech out of Falco's [[down throw]] due to him being lighter.}}

==Differences with {{SSBM|Fox}}==
{{Technical data|All valid frame data differences between the two.}}

It is difficult to determine whether Falco is better or worse than Fox, as they are top-tiered [[clone]]s. Falco is heavier and falls faster than Fox does, aiding in his vertical endurance. Falco's combo ability, particularly against fastfallers, is superior to Fox's; his [[shine]] and down aerial can extend combos in ways that Fox's moves cannot. Additionally, Falco's [[Blaster|lasers]] are quite powerful in neutral because they cause hitstun, allowing them to be used as a powerful disruption and approach tool in the [[neutral game]] instead of just a passive maneuver to rack up damage.

However, Falco's ground mobility is inferior to Fox's, as he has slower ground speed and a shorter [[wavedash]]. Additionally, his recovery moves, despite possessing more power, travel much shorter distances than Fox's; while this does allow for a safer near-stage recovery, it makes it impossible to recover from afar. Fox's [[shine]] and down aerial can lead into an up smash, and up throw can lead to almost any aerial. However, since most of Falco's moves are geared towards comboing, he lacks many of these guaranteed setups into his own KO moves. This is especially prevalent against floaty characters, such as {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} and {{SSBM|Peach}}; Fox hard counters them due to the ease in which he can combo them, then KO them vertically, while Falco must rely on his superior neutral game and edgeguards to keep the match even.

Overall, Falco's strategy at top-level play differs considerably from Fox's. Falco is more reliant on stage control and punishes; he is more suited to locking the foe down with lasers and damaging, guaranteed combos, and must maintain stage control at all times due to his poor recovery. Fox, on the other hand, is more reliant on edgeguarding and neutral resets due to the launch angle of his shine and his shorter, usually simpler punishes. Thus, while Falco and Fox may be indistinguishable from each other at low-level play, their general playstyles vary drastically at the tournament level.

===Aesthetics===
*{{change|Falco's taunt, idle pose, sleep, and victory animations are different from Fox's.}}

===Attributes===
*{{change|Falco is taller than Fox, giving him more reach, but makes him easier to hit.}}
*{{buff|Falco has better [[jumping]] prowess than Fox.}}
*{{change|Falco has more jump-squat frames than Fox (3 frames → 5 frames), making his [[SHFFL]] slower, but easier to perform.}}
*{{buff|Falco has a much higher [[wall jump]] than Fox.}}
*{{nerf|Falco [[walk]]s (1.6 → 1.4) slower than Fox.}}
*{{nerf|Falco [[dash]]es (2.2 → 1.5) significantly slower than Fox.}}
*{{nerf|Falco's [[wavedash]] is slightly shorter than Fox's.}}
*{{buff|Falco's [[roll]]s cover more distance than Fox's.}}
*{{buff|Falco is heavier than Fox (75 → 80), allowing him to survive slightly longer, though he is still one of the lightest characters in the game.}}
*{{change|Falco falls faster than Fox (2.8 → 3.1). Combined with his heavier weight, it grants Falco much better vertical endurance. However, his faster falling speed makes him more susceptible to combos and [[chaingrabs]] and worsens his already poor recovery.}}
*{{change|Falco has less [[gravity]] than Fox (0.23 → 0.17).}}

===Ground attacks===
*{{change|The second hit of Falco's [[neutral attack]] has a different angle than Fox's (70° → 50°).}}
*{{buff|Falco's [[dash attack]] deals more damage than Fox's (7%/5% → 9%/6%).}}
*{{buff|Falco's [[forward tilt]] has a slightly longer duration than Fox's (frame 5-8 → frame 5-9).}}
*{{change|Falco's [[up tilt]] deals overall less damage (12% (foot grounded)/9% (leg & foot aerial) → 9% (consistent)) and knockback (18 base/140 scaling → 30/120) than Fox's. This makes it unable to KO at realistic percentages, but makes it a much more reliable combo tool.}}
*[[Down tilt]]:
**{{buff|Falco's down tilt deals more damage (10% → 13%), making it much stronger than Fox's and a viable KO move at high percents.}}
**{{nerf|Falco's down tilt has less range than Fox's despite his attacks generally having more range, due to his shorter tail.}}
*[[Forward smash]]:
**{{buff|Falco's forward smash deals more damage (15%/12% → 17%/14%) than Fox's, although its knockback was compensated (10 base/105 scaling → 40/90).}}
**{{nerf|Falco's forward smash has a slightly shorter duration than Fox's (frame 12-23 → frame 12-22).}}
*[[Up smash]]:
**{{buff|Falco's up smash has one more [[intangible]] frame on his head (frame 1-10 → frame 1-11).}}
**{{nerf|Falco's up smash deals less damage (18%/13% → 14%/12%) and knockback (30 base/112 scaling → 25 base/100), making it drastically weaker than Fox's. It also has a shorter duration (frame 7-18 → frame 7-16) and more ending lag.}}
***{{buff|However, its weaker knockback makes it a much better combo move.}}
*{{buff|Falco's [[down smash]] deals more damage (15%/13%/12% → 16%/13%) and has more knockback scaling (65 → 70) than Fox's. It also gains more intangibility frames on his legs (frame 6 → frame 1-6).}}

===Aerial attacks===
*{{buff|Falco's [[neutral aerial]] and [[back aerial]] have more reach than Fox's.}}
*{{buff|The first four hits of Falco's [[forward aerial]] deal more damage than Fox (7% (hit 1)/5% (hit 2)/6% (hit 3)/4% (hit 4) → 9%/8%/7%/5%), thus, giving it more damage than Fox's if all hits connect (23% → 29%). It can also autocancel in a full hop due to Falco's higher jumping height.}}
*{{buff|Falco's back aerial can autocancel in a short hop.}}
*[[Up aerial]]:
**{{buff|The first hit of Falco's up aerial has different knockback properties (134 fixed knockback/120 scaling → 40/30 base/20 scaling), making it overall easier to connect with the second hit than Fox's.}} 
**{{nerf|The second hit of Falco's up aerial is weaker (40 base/116 scaling → 22/30 base/120/20 scaling) and deals less damage (first hit 5%/second hit 13%: 18% total → 6%/10: 16% total) overall than Fox's, hindering its KO potential.}}
**{{change|Each hit of Falco's up aerial has different knockback angles (first hit 92°/second hit 85° → 90°/70°/90°).}}
*[[Down aerial]]:
**{{buff|Falco's down aerial only hits once, but is a powerful [[spike]] considerably better than Fox's down aerial (30 base/0 scaling → 10/20/100), significantly improving its edgeguarding potential and granting it KO potential.}}
***{{buff|Despite dealing much less damage than Fox's (19% → 12%), Falco's down aerial has much more combo potential when combined with his [[shine]].}}

===Grabs and throws===
*{{buff|Falco's [[grab]] range is longer than Fox's.}}
*{{buff|Falco's [[forward throw]] can chaingrab more efficiently than Fox's because of his longer grab range.}}
*{{nerf|Falco's [[back throw|back]] and [[down throw]]s are weaker than Fox's in damage and knockback output, with down throw being harder to meteor smash on the edge.}}
**{{buff|However, this considerably increases down throw's combo ability.}} 
*{{nerf|Falco's [[up throw]] has less combo potential, with a followup often being dependent on the opponent's directional influence.}}

===Special moves===
*[[Blaster (Falco)|Blaster]]:
**{{buff|Falco's Blaster causes [[hitstun]], allowing for better combo setups and better capability at hindering an opponent's approach. It also fires faster when airborne and the lasers cover much more distance.}}
**{{nerf|Falco's lasers shoot slower than Fox's.}}
**{{change|Falco's Blaster animation is different. Whereas Fox holds it straight with both hands, Falco holds it sideways with one wing next to his head.}}
*[[Falco Phantasm]]:
**{{buff|Falco's Falco Phantasm travels faster and possesses meteor smash capabilities.}} 
**{{change|Falco Phantasm does not travel as far as Fox Illusion, hindering its recovery potential, but improving its safety near ledges.}}
***{{nerf|Falco Phantasm, however, has significantly more ending lag than Fox Illusion.}}
*[[Fire Bird]]:
**{{buff|Falco's Fire Bird has much more base knockback (60 → 80) than [[Fire Fox]], granting it KO potential.}}
**{{nerf|Fire Bird's recovery distance is much shorter, travelling only half the length of Fire Fox. Fire Bird also lacks Fire Fox's charging hitboxes, dealing less damage (25% → 16%) and making edgeguarding Falco much easier, especially with [[meteor smash]]es and [[spike]]s. These changes drastically reduce its recovery potential.}}
**{{change|Fire Bird's animation differs slightly from that of Fire Fox; Falco does not spin during the travelling section of the move, whereas Fox does.}}
*[[Reflector (Falco)|Reflector]]:
**{{change|Falco's Reflector sends opponents straight vertically, making it extremely useful for on-stage combos that can be hard to escape from, unlike Fox's, which instead semi-spikes the opponent, allowing for neutral resets, edgeguards, and guaranteed KO setups.}}
**{{buff|Falco's Reflector deals more damage than Fox's (5% → 8%).}}
**{{nerf|Falco's Reflector has less range than Fox's.}}

{{MovesetTable
|game=SSBM
|neutralinf=y
|neutralcount=2
|neutralname=&nbsp;
|neutral1dmg=4%
|neutral2dmg=4%
|neutralinfdmg=1% (loop)
|neutraldesc=Two quick jabs, which can easily be [[jab cancel]]ed into each other or other moves. The second jab moves Falco slightly forward and is followed by a flurry of fast kicks.
|ftiltname=&nbsp;
|ftiltdmg=9%
|ftiltdesc=Sticks his foot out to the side. Fast, and has impressive range for a tilt. Can [[gimp]] opponents, though has limited use outside this. This move can be aimed up or down.
|utiltname=&nbsp;
|utiltdmg=9%
|utiltdesc=Flips his leg behind him. Short range, but very fast, and has incredible combo ability, being a great move that can quickly knock opponents into the air and follow up with aerials or a Shine. Considered one of the best up tilts in the game, after Marth, due to said combo ability.
|dtiltname=&nbsp;
|dtiltdmg=13%
|dtiltdesc=Swipes his tail in front of him. Although it has somewhat short range (shorter behind him than in the front), it has unusually high damage and knockback for a tilt. It knocks opponents straight upwards. It can KO some characters at as low as 90% if fresh. The strongest down tilt in the game along with Mr. Game & Watch.
|dashname=&nbsp;
|dashdmg=9% (clean), 6% (late)
|dashdesc=Runs forward and sticks his leg out. Sends opponents upwards.
|fsmashname=&nbsp;
|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|17}} (clean), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|14}} (late)
|fsmashdesc=Flips his body in front and kicks in front of him. Similar to [[Fox (SSBM)|Fox]]'s forward smash, but much stronger, usually KOing at around 90-110%. A good option against an opponent who is trying to get on the ledge, especially if they are above 100% damage. Considered to be one of the best forward smashes in the game, after Marth.
|usmashname=&nbsp;
|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|14}} (clean), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|12}} (late)
|usmashdesc=Does a bicycle kick. It is drastically weaker than Fox's up smash, but is a better juggler. However, there are usually better options available for knocking opponents into the air (like an up tilt or a Shine). It can also hit behind Falco, albeit with significantly lower knockback. Falco's head is intangible during the early part of the animation.
|dsmashname=&nbsp;
|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|16}} (feet), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBM|13}} (legs)
|dsmashdesc=Does a quick split. High KO power, and with high knockback and [[semi-spike]] properties, it is an excellent edgeguarder, though it has rather short range. Both of Falco's legs are intangible whenever he starts up the move, even while he's charging, all the way until the hitboxes come out.
|nairname=&nbsp;
|nairdmg=12% (clean), 9% (late)
|nairdesc=A simple [[sex kick]]. Has high knockback when it first comes out, and it comes out quickly, good in a short hop. Not as good as Fox's due to the way shine works but still an amazing move.
|fairname=&nbsp;
|fairdmg=9% (hit 1), 8% (hit 2), 7% (hit 3), 5% (hit 4), 3% (hit 5)
|fairdesc=Kicks forward five times. The move as high duration due to the number of kicks, and it is very difficult to connect all the hits. It also gives Falco quite a short time to react with another jump or recovery. Does incredible damage if all hits connect, much more than Fox's.
|bairname=&nbsp;
|bairdmg=15% (clean right leg), 9% (clean left leg, late)
|bairdesc=Does a quick no-look kick backwards while recovering in a turn, with sex kick properties. Good KO power, and great for [[edgeguarding]]. Has more range than Fox's but riskier to use offstage due to his faster falling speed and worse recovery, still one of the best back airs in the game.
|uairname=&nbsp;
|uairdmg=6% (hit 1), 10% (hit 2)
|uairdesc=Whips his tail up and kicks immediately after. Can deal up to 15% damage if both hits connect. Weaker than Fox's up air, but still a powerful KO move (especially on floaties) and will kill near the top blast zone under 100%.
|dairname=&nbsp;
|dairdmg=12% (clean), 9% (late)
|dairdesc=Spins around in place at a downwards angle while extending one foot. An extremely strong [[spike]] that can set up and follow out of Shine combos and KO characters quickly and efficiently. However, it is of extreme risk to use offstage, due to Falco's poor vertical recovery. Regardless, it is an excellent KO move and is among the most feared attacks in the game, with no [[sourspot]] and the hitbox lasting all of the move (however, in the PAL version of the game, the second half of the move produces weak horizontal knockback). Widely considered to be the best down air in the game due to it's quick speed, spike properties, approaching ability, combo ability, amazing power, and good range.
|grabname= &nbsp;
|grabdesc=Ranked as tenth largest grab range in the game.
|pummelname=&nbsp;
|pummeldmg=3%
|pummeldesc=Knees opponent.
|fthrowname=&nbsp;
|fthrowdmg=4% (hit 1), 3% (throw)
|fthrowdesc=Punches opponent. Can force opponents offstage for edgeguarding, but other than that, it doesn't have many comboing follow-ups. Can chaingrab floaty characters at low percentages.
|bthrowname=&nbsp;
|bthrowdmg=2% (throw), 2% (shots)
|bthrowdesc=Throws opponent backwards, then fires three shots from his Blaster. Can force opponents offstage for edgeguarding, but other than that, not too useful. It is possible to [[tech-chase]] an opponent with this move, depending on their DI.
|uthrowname=&nbsp;
|uthrowdmg=2% (throw), 2% (shots)
|uthrowdesc=Tosses opponent upwards, then fires three shots from his Blaster. Excellent for setting up an aerial combo (most particularly an up aerial or neutral aerial), but can be DI'd out of at higher percentages.
|dthrowname=&nbsp;
|dthrowdmg=1% (shots), 1% (throw)
|dthrowdesc=Slams opponent onto the floor, then shoots them four times with his Blaster. If the player can predict the opponent's reaction, an up tilt is possible. This move can also set up a Shine combo. However, the move is relatively easy to tech out of. Like Fox's down throw, it [[meteor smash]]es over the ledge if Falco grabs the opponent at the very edge of the platform, however, it is much weaker. This throw, unlike Fox's, has the strange ability to chain throw extremely light characters, such as {{SSBM|Pichu}} and {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}.
|floorfname=&nbsp;
|floorfdmg=6%
|floorfdesc=Gets up and kicks on both sides.
|floorbname=&nbsp;
|floorbdmg=6%
|floorbdesc=Punches forwards, then kicks backwards.
|edgefname=&nbsp;
|edgefdmg=6% (body), 8% (legs)
|edgefdesc=Throws himself onto the stage with both feet sticking out.
|edgesname=&nbsp;
|edgesdmg=6% (body), 8% (legs)
|edgesdesc=Slowly gets up and kicks in front.
|nsname=Blaster
|nspage=Blaster (Falco)
|nsdmg=3%
|nsdesc=Falco fires a laser from his Blaster. Not nearly as fast as Fox's, but is more powerful and makes the opponent flinch. For this reason, it is excellent for stopping approaching opponents, and the lag can be canceled if the move is done during a short hop and Falco fastfalls to the ground (referred to as [[short hop laser]]. Can also stop opponents when they are offstage. If Falco does a short hop laser close to an opponent, they will be stunned momentarily, allowing Falco to get an easy grab or start an aerial combo with a up tilt or a Shine. This attack has [[Priority#transcendent_priority|transcendent priority]]. Considered to either be one of the best or the best projectile in the game and the best neutral special because of its approach and combo ability, as well as strong pressure offstage.
|ssname=Falco Phantasm
|ssdmg=7%
|ssdesc=Falco dashes forward, leaving an afterimage behind him. Falco's quickest and safest horizontal recovery move. If it hits an opponent in midair, it is a very weak meteor smash. If B is quickly pressed again just after starting the move, it will be canceled and Falco will not dash forward. This also stops him in midair.
|usname=Fire Bird
|usdmg=16%
|usdesc=Falco charges up in flames and blasts off in a direction, which can be controlled with the [[control stick]]. Unreliable as an attack due to the charge time. Used for vertical recovery, however it travels a much shorter distance than Fox's [[Fire Fox]]. Unlike Fire Fox, it cannot damage opponents during the charge, leaving Falco vulnerable to [[meteor smash|meteor smashes]] during the charge - with the right timing, it is even possible to meteor smash Falco when he is moving.
|dsname=Reflector
|dspage=Reflector (Falco)
|dsdmg=8% (startup), 1.5x damage for reflected projectiles
|dsdesc=Falco's Reflector (informally referred to as the Shine) works just like Fox's, reflecting any projectiles that hit it right back at the opponent who fired them for more damage and knockback. Unlike Fox's Shine, it doesn't send the opponent on a semi-spike trajectory; rather, it knocks them straight upwards. This makes the move very useful for knocking opponents into the air and starting aerial combos, on par with the up tilt. Can be jump cancelled, to avoid the ending lag, which can lead to double or multi-shines, as well as pillaring combos. This allows Falco to use it repeatedly to wear down shields, continue aerial combos or save a teammate in doubles. Considered to be one of the best moves in the game and the best down special along with Fox due to its great combo ability along with down air.

==In [[Competitive play]]==
===[[Character matchups (SSBM)|Matchups]]===
{{SSBMMatchupTable|falco=yes}}
Falco is one of two characters in the game to have no disadvantageous matchups whatsoever, along with {{SSBM|Fox}}, but has more even matchups than most other top tier characters. Falco has seven even matchups, [[soft counter]]s three characters, [[counter (matchup)|counter]]s seven, and [[hard counter]]s eight. He has the tools to beat every character, though he is particularly vulnerable to [[chaingrab]]s from characters such as {{SSBM|Marth}} and {{SSBM|Peach}}, and is very easy to [[gimp]] and [[edgeguard]]. These disadvantages give him some trouble against characters who have effective edgeguarding tools, such as {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}}, Marth, and Fox. He tends to do well against characters who do not have the tools to properly respond to his [[combo]] openers, such as {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}, and does very well against characters with a lack of reliable horizontal finishers and/or edgeguarding ability, such as {{SSBM|Young Link}}. Overall, Falco's matchup spread is among the best in the game.

Falco's matchups against Fox and Marth are heavily debated in the current metagame. Falco is one of the only characters in the game that can be argued to have a winning matchup against Fox. His lasers allow him to restrict Fox's movement, and his shine followups on Fox are generally easier to execute than extended combos from Fox against Falco. However, Fox edgeguards Falco much more easily, and the advantages that Falco's lasers provide diminish as players improve and learn counter-play against it. At the top level, though, both characters can usually heavily damage (if not KO) the other as soon as they force an opening. Marth, on the other hand, was long thought to have a close to even matchup against Falco, owing to Falco's superior neutral game. Despite this, Falco mains have been struggling to defeat Marths of similar level in recent times, as he is punished far harder for making a mistake and can easily be gimped at low percentages by Marth. This suggests that the 'risk-reward' of interactions in the matchup is against Falco; and many now consider Marth to be a soft counter to him. 

Another point of contention is Falco's matchups against, Yoshi and Pikachu. As of the 2015 tier list, which is current, Falco hard counters Pikachu and has a large advantage against Yoshi. For Pikachu, some say that his chain grab against Falco and strong edgeguards are enough to make the matchup seem slightly more winnable than in 2015. Whereas for Yoshi, the metagame has developed so greatly since 2015 that it is unfair to say that the matchup is unwinnable. 

Two matchups that Falco used to dominate in, though still winning matchups, are no longered looked at as so, with the two characters, Yoshi and Pikachu, metagame advancing in recent years. Pikachu's chain grab and strong edge guarding game having caused players to no longer consider Falco to destroy the character, though the matchup is still considered to be in Falco's favor due to his strong neutral tools and strong punishment game. Another match that was considered unlosable was to Yoshi, who in recent years, his own metagame has been improving. Yoshi has a strong punishment game, strong tools to send Falco off stage to his doom or to set up an edge guard along with having tools to projectile camp Falco himself from the ledge. Though Falco still wins the matchup due to his strong projectile game, strong combo game and having certain tools to break Yoshi's double jump armor which leaves the matchup slightly in Falco's favor, but not considered as unbeatable as it once  was.

===Tier placement and history===
Throughout the ''Melee'' tier lists, Falco has always been in the high/top tiers along with {{SSBM|Fox}} and {{SSBM|Sheik}}, with his lowest position being fifth place. In the beginning of ''Melee''{{'}}s metagame, Falco players had not yet discovered his strong combo potential. As such, they relied only on zoning out the opponent with his [[Blaster]] in the [[neutral game]], while largely ignoring his punish game. While this defensive style of play was reasonably effective and gave Falco the results he needed to stay in the high tiers, Falco was widely considered to be not only inferior to Fox, but to other top tiers such as Sheik and {{SSBM|Marth}} as well, as those characters' metagames were advancing faster than his.

However, this perception changed drastically after the [[Jack Garden Tournament]], where players worldwide were introduced to {{Sm|Bombsoldier}} and his extremely aggressive interpretation of what was once considered a purely defensive character. Falco players soon realized that their approach to the character was suboptimal, and began implementing many of Bombsoldier's strategies into their own game. In turn, Falco's results began improving dramatically. New Falco mains, most notably {{Sm|PC Chris}}, soon began pushing him to levels of play exceeding that of even Bombsoldier's. PC Chris was even able to win some of the most prestigious tournaments at the time, proving that Falco had all the tools to succeed and come out on top at the highest level of play.

With PC Chris retiring soon after ''Brawl'' was released in 2008, and with the concurrent rise of {{Sm|KoreanDJ}} and {{Sm|Mew2King}} (who both played Fox, among other characters), Falco saw a dip in popularity for a brief period of time. There was noticeable debate over his position at 2nd on the tier list, and he fell to 4th in a 2008 revision. However, his metagame was revitalized by new world class players, such as {{Sm|Mango}}, {{Sm|PPMD}}, {{Sm|Westballz}}, and {{Sm|DaShizWiz}}, who all gave Falco results at the top level once again. Falco players continued to place extremely well, and for some time until 2014, even won more large tournaments than Fox players. This led some players at the time, [http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2014/may/08/if-final-destination-was-only-stage-melee-marth-would-be-best-character-mew2kings-top-5-super-smash-bros-tier-list-pt3/ such as Mew2King], to believe that Falco was a better character than Fox, with the argument that Falco succeeds in notable tournaments more consistently than Fox, while Fox's perceived superiority was based more on potential than performance.

However, since then, there have been very few majors, if any, won by a Falco main; Fox players have since taken 1st place in many more majors, even in PAL. This is mainly due to {{Sm|PPMD}}'s hiatus, the rise of Fox mains such as {{Sm|Leffen}}, and more top players electing to pick Fox in high-level tournament matches for his superior matchups against [[floaty]] characters. The Falco counterplay metagame has also advanced considerably, as professionals have greatly improved their [[DI]] and [[powershielding]] skills that make it much harder for Falco players to win the neutral game and combo opponents. As such, while it is agreed that Falco can still succeed at the top level, his position at 2nd in the tier list is once again extremely debatable.

====PAL viability====
Like several other characters who, by coincidence, would years later be known to be top tier, Falco was nerfed in the PAL version of ''Melee''. His powerful down aerial spike now only has the spike hitbox during the first 10 frames of the move, while the weaker hitbox sends opponents on the [[Sakurai angle]] instead. This makes timing Falco's down aerial more key to success in tournament play. However, this nerf does not significantly affect him, as most Falco professionals train to hit with the strong hitbox anyway, and the duration of said hitbox is still enough to approach the enemy with it and wear down shields. Thus, Falco's viability in PAL is more or less the same as in NTSC, barring a slightly easier matchup against {{SSBM|Fox}} due to Fox's own nerfs in that version.

==In Single-Player Modes==
===In {{SSBM|Classic Mode}}===
When unlocked, Falco can appear either in ordinary one-on-one matches, in a team with Fox or {{SSBM|Captain Falcon}}, as an ally in team and giant battles, or as a metal opponent in the game's penultimate battle. With the exception of being on a team with Captain Falcon and the metal battle, Falco appears on either [[Corneria]] or [[Venom]].

===In [[Adventure Mode]]===
In the game's Adventure Mode, Falco can appear in Part 2 of Stage 6; when unlocked, the player has the possibility of fighting against Falco in the stage, instead of Fox again. However, Falco wears the red [[Alternate costume]] (his first alternate costume); instead of default color.

===In [[All-Star Mode]]===
In All-Star Mode, Falco and his allies are fought on Venom.

===In [[Event Matches]]===
Falco appears in the following event matches:

*'''[[Event 23: Slippy's Invention]]''': In this event, the player must fight against Fox and Falco on Venom, in a standard two stock match; however, the two are under the effects of a Cloaking Device during the entire match, though they can still be damaged.
*'''[[Event 32: Target Acquired]]''': As Falco, the player must KO {{SSBM|Jigglypuff}} as many times as possible in one minute on Corneria. However, Arwings also fire frequently at the stage, and Falco must KO Jigglypuff more often than the Arwings to win the event.
*'''[[Event 36: Space Travelers]]''': As {{SSBM|Ness}}, the player must defeat five opponents in a row: {{SSBM|Samus}}, {{SSBM|Kirby}}, {{SSBM|Fox}}, Captain Falcon, and Falco. In the first three opponents, the fights are done on [[Fourside]]; after this, the player is then sent to {{SSBM|Battlefield}} to fight against the last two.
*'''[[Event 43: Birds of Prey]]''': In this event, the player, as Fox, must fight against a team of Falco and Captain Falcon on the stage [[Big Blue]]. Everyone has two lives, but there is also a time limit of two minutes.
*'''[[Event 49: All-Star Match Deluxe]]''': Falco is the second opponent fought in this series of staged battles. The selected character battles him on the [[Venom]] stage with a stock of 2 while Falco has 1. With a timer of four minutes, the player must defeat him and the other five characters one-by-one with the overall time and damage: {{SSBM|Dr. Mario}}, {{SSBM|Pichu}}, {{SSBM|Young Link}}, {{SSBM|Roy}} and {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}.

:'''Falco'''
:"''Star Fox team pilot, Falco's constant air of casual indifference belies his precise piloting skills. He avoids discussion of what he did before joining the team, but many consider it likely that his past was filled with reckless behavior. He's not much for cooperation, but he does respect those more skilled than he is.''"

:'''Falco''' [<span style="color:#FF0000">Smash</span>]
:"''Where his leader, Fox, has blinding speed, Falco has his own distinct skills and advantages. He has both a higher jump and a longer reach than Fox, and although his Blaster lacks rapid-fire capabilities, it strikes with shocking force. Unlike Fox, Falco can stop enemies in their tracks with his Blaster fire.''"

:"''Falco's amazing jumping abilities have many merits, but it's vital to realize that it comes at the cost of some attack power and defensive strength. He falls at a high speed, which disrupts potential attackers, but this also prevents successful recoveries occasionally. Hit an opponent with Reflector, and he or she will fly straight up; this is Falco's quickest attack. ''"

==Trivia==
*Falco's voice actors, Ben Cullum and Hisao Egawa, are credited in the [[credits]] even if he has not been unlocked yet. This is due to his appearance in the intermission of the [[Corneria]] stage in [[Adventure Mode]].
*Falco is the only character who isn't first on his respective tier list that has no disadvantageous matchups.
*''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' is the only game where Falco is not fought in his home stages when being unlocked, instead he is fought in {{SSBM|Battlefield}}.
