The '''Fighting Wire Frames''' ({{ja|謎のザコ敵軍団}}, ''Nazo no Zako Tekigun Dan'', also known as the '''Mysterious Small Fry Enemy Army Group''') are common enemies in various 1-player modes in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. | |||

[[Captain Falcon (SSBM)|Captain Falcon]] (and by association, his [[clone]] [[Ganondorf (SSBM)|Ganondorf]]) and [[Zelda (SSBM)|Zelda]], whose standard attacks they borrow. | |||
Generally, they are weak and light fighters, and are very easy to KO; as to compensate their lack of recoveries due to their inability to use [[special move]]s, Wire Frames have high jumping prowess. In the [[Adventure Mode]], they are also fought in a low-gravity version of [[Battlefield]]. | |||
Wire Frames are also unable to charge smashes and their moves are much weaker versions of Captain Falcon's and Zelda's attacks. Two obvious examples are Captain Falcon's [[Knee Smash]] and Zelda's [[Lightning Kick]], which do not have the power or electricity in the Wire Frame version. | |||
Wire Frames have the property of being unable to be [[Star KO|Star]] or [[Screen KO]]'d. The Event Match Legendary Pokémon, however, acts as an exception. | |||
The two " | The two "genders" of Wire Frames behave differently; males always home towards the player's character, whereas the females tend to play a more passive role, rarely directly assaulting or attacking the player. | ||
In [[Cruel Melee]], however, all Wire Frames are extremely aggressive, and are also handicapped to be extremely powerful and harder to knock off-stage. Characters cannot survive easily among the Wire Frames because of their amplified power and aggressive [[edge-guarding]]. The power of these Wire Frames became the center of an infamous [[List of rumors#Sonic and Tails|April Fool's joke.]] | |||
Wire Frames appear in all modes of [[Multi-Man Melee]], in [[Battlefield (SSBM)|Battlefield]] during Adventure mode, and in [[Event 37: Legendary Pokémon]]. | |||
Wire Frames are considered to be successors to the [[Fighting Polygon Team]] and the predecessors of the [[Fighting Alloy Team]], although they have a larger role than either of them. | |||

''Who built the Fighting Wire Frames and to what purpose remains a mystery. They're a simple collection of wires which house a sparse framework of bones and organs that lends them a rather disturbing appearance. They look rather big and powerful, but in reality, both their offensive and defensive abilities are subpar. | |||

== | ===Female Wire Frame=== | ||
''This is the female model of the Fighting Wire Frames. The female's abilities are roughly the same as the male model's. All Fighting Wire Frames lack the ability to use special techniques, and their attacks lack any real physical strength. Additionally, they're slow and are therefore easy to outmaneuver. They tend to attack in gangs. | |||

''The Multi-Man Melee mode consists of 10-Man, 3-Minute, Endless, and other such matches, which pit you against the Fighting Wire Frames under varied rules. Of particular note is the Cruel Melee, where the Wire Frames pull no punches; they'll come after you with a single-minded fury rarely seen in CPU opponents. | |||
