Javi, after another 5 or 6 months of no significant appearances, goes to Apex Qualifier [[Forte 2]], along with several other Mexican smashers such as Valdo, Lazh .jpg, {{Sm|Aza}} and {{Sm|Tuga}}. While there, he easily swept through his pools, and served as the final man in the Texas vs. Mexico crew battle, taking out {{Sm|Arc}}'s last stock without losing one. He also defeated {{Sm|MT}} 3-1 in a Money Match using Fox, Sheik and Falcon and won Melee doubles with his brother Tuga, defeating Hungrybox and Arc in Grandfinals without dropping a set the whole time. Afterwards, Javi surged through his bracket, defeating the likes of {{Sm|Tirno}} 3-0 and {{Sm|MacD}} 3-1 to get into Top 8 on Winner's Side. He then had a nail-biting 5 game set against {{Sm|Hungrybox}} that went down to last stock, but eventually was defeated 3-2. He then defeated Arc 3-0 in loser's quarters before losing 3-1 to Axe in loser's semis, taking 4th place overall.

He was able to attend [[The Big House 5]] through the smash compendium. He was notably late for teams forcing his partner {{Sm|Bladewise}} to play with a level 9 Ganondorf. Despite this setback they were able to get 4th place in teams. In top 64 bracket he beat {{Sm|KirbyKaze}} 2-0 in winners before getting 0-3'ed by both {{Sm|Armada}} and Duck to get 17th place.

He teamed with .jpg and got 5th in teams. Javi returned to Texas with Aza, Twin, and the rest of Monterry to attend [[Forte 3]]. He again took teams with Twin without dropping a set.

Javi was able to attend [[GENESIS 3]] in 2016, but unfortunately only received 33rd place getting knocked out by [[Ice]] 0-3 and [[Mike Haze]] 2-3. Javi also placed top 8 in doubles with Tuga and was part of {{Sm|Axe}}'s team for crew battles.

Javi attended [[EVO 2016]] and made into top 32 winners side, but he lost to {{Sm|Plup}} and S2J and received 17th place like last year.
==Playing Style==
Javi is known for his high level of [[technical skill]], being one of the first {{SSBM|Fox}} mains to consistently utilize the [[double shine]] technique in competitive play. Javi is considered one of the best Fox players in [[ditto match|ditto]]s and the {{SSBM|Falco}} matchup, taking sets off of several famed [[space animal]] players in tournament such as {{Sm|PPMD}}. He however does poorly in the {{SSBM|Samus}} matchup similar to {{Sm|Leffen}} having lost sets to {{Sm|ESAM}} and {{Sm|Duck}}. He holds the controller in an unusual way compared to most others, playing "claw" as if he was using a fight stick.
