The '''Star Fox Smash Taunt''' is a series of [[Easter eggs]] included in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', where the various {{uv|Star Fox}} characters can allow players to hear conversations between characters from the ''Star Fox'' series. Excluding the conversations on [[Orbital Gate Assault]], these taunts can only be activated by ''Star Fox'' characters on [[stage]]s from that same series. They later inspired similar Smash Taunts for [[Snake's Smash Taunt|Snake in ''Brawl'']] and [[Palutena's Guidance|various ''Kid Icarus'' characters]] in ''Smash 4''.
The '''Star Fox Smash Taunt''' is a series of conversations that are [[easter eggs]] included in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These can be activated by only {{uv|Star Fox}} characters on [[stage]]s from that same series. They are like [[Snake's Smash Taunt|Snake's usage of his codec]], however, the Star Fox Smash Taunt predates Snake's Smash Taunt.


==Activating==
==Activating==
To perform the special [[taunt]], the player has to tap the down taunt button very briefly (one [[frame]]) until they see the character go into a kneeling stance while shaking their fist. In most configurations, this is down on the [[directional pad]]. In ''Melee'', players press down on the control pad for one frame.
To perform the special [[taunt]], the player has to tap the down taunt very briefly (one [[frame]]) until they see the character go into a kneeling stance while shaking their fist. The third taunt can be done by pressing the following buttons (assuming the player is on a default key configuration).


If the character completes the whole animation (kneeling while shaking fist, and then standing up and putting their hands to their ear receiver), the secret taunt has been activated. If the animation is interrupted before it is completed, the taunt will not activate and cannot be triggered for the rest of the match.
*Down on the [[D-Pad]] ([[GameCube controller]], [[Classic Controller]], [[GamePad]], [[Wii U Pro Controller]], and [[3DS]])
*Down and A at the same time ([[Wii Remote]])
*Button 2 (Wii remote + [[Nunchuk]])


On [[Orbital Gate Assault]], all human players must hold a certain button (the [[grab]] button in most configurations) while selecting the stage. Neither Fox nor Falco can be present in the match. Depending on which grab button is held, one of two conversations may play.
If the character completes the whole animation (kneeling while shaking fist, and then standing up and performing a salute), the secret taunt has been activated.


These Smash Taunts cannot be activated on the [[Ω form|Ω]] or [[Battlefield form]]s of the stages. If [[Stage Morph]] is on and the taunt is activated, the morph will be delayed until the conversation has finished. In [[Lylat Cruise]], stage hazards must be turned on for the conversation to work.

[[File:Fox Smash Taunt.jpg|thumb|right|Peppy Hare is one of the ''Star Fox'' series characters present in this easter egg.]]
====Smash Taunt dialogue====
====Corneria====
=====Conversation 1=====
:'''Slippy:''' Use the B button and the Control Stick combos for special moves!


:'''Peppy:''' Press Up, X, or Y to jump!
Peppy: Look, we're passing Corneria. Protecting this planet sure has been a lot of work.


:'''Falco:''' What? You're just now explaining the controls?!?
Falco: Yeah, it's kept things from getting too boring around here.


Note 1: This is a reference to ''Star Fox 64''{{'}}s tendency of [[Wikipedia:Fourth wall|breaking the fourth wall]] to explain the controls. However, the controls can be fully explained to the player in ''Star Fox 64''{{'}}s training mode.
Wolf: Don't think you can take a breather just yet, Team Star Fox!


Note 2: In ''Melee'', Peppy's text reads "Press Up, X or Y Button to jump!", and in ''Brawl'', it instead reads "Press Up or the X or Y Button to jump!"; the text in ''for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Ultimate'' match the voice clip.
Peppy: Ahhh! Star Wolf!


Note 3: In ''for Nintendo 3DS'' and ''Ultimate'', the "and the Control Stick combos" part of Slippy's line is removed. Additionally, in the latter, the text simply reads "Use B for special moves!"
Wolf: You know you are all like us. Our fates are intertwined. We are destined to meet in battle. After all, what fun is there to be had in peace and quiet? A true warrior can only live in the battlefield!


=====Conversation 2=====
Falco: Then why don't you show me what a real warrior's like, fuzzball! I'm ready if you are!
:'''Slippy:''' Wow! I almost feel like going for a swim!


:'''Falco:''' You swim in the ocean too?
Slippy: Boy those guys are always itching to fight, huh?


:'''Slippy:''' Don't make fun of me, birdbrain!
====Asteroid Field====


:'''Peppy:''' Ahh, to be young again...
Peppy: We've hit an asteroid field! Protect the main ship at all costs!


=====Conversation 3=====
Falco: Take it easy, Peppy. We just need to blow up some of these asteroids, right?
:'''Peppy:''' Fox! Be careful! I have a bad feeling about this.


:'''Slippy:''' What? Everything's fine - I'm here!
Slippy: Don't worry about us, Fox! We've got things covered here. You just focus on the battle!


:'''Falco:''' That's what worries me the most...
Krystal: Don't let us down, Fox!


=====Conversation 4=====
Slippy: Blast 'em once for me, buddy!
This dialogue is removed in ''for Nintendo 3DS''.
:'''Falco:''' Behind you, Fox! Stay alert!


:'''Peppy:''' Just don't give up! Trust your senses.
====Skirmish====


:'''Slippy:''' Come on, Fox!
Peppy: We're in the middle of an interplanetary skirmish. Stay sharp and keep an eye on your six!


Note: This is a reference to the team cheering for Fox during some points <!--be more specific if you can--> of ''Star Fox 64''.
Slippy: Eeep! This place is a war zone!


=====Conversation 5=====
Falco: Heh, what are you worried about? These guys are weaker than overcooked noodles!
:'''Peppy:''' Watch your radar carefully, Fox!
:'''Peppy:''' Keep your eyes open!
:'''Peppy:''' C'mon, Fox! What are you doing?!?


:'''Slippy:''' Be quiet, you old fogey!
Peppy: Mmm? Overcooked noodles? What's that supposed to mean?


Note 1: This is a reference to Peppy being the most talkative of the group, so much so that he even has more lines of dialogue than Fox. His lines are many tips and boss strategies.
Krystal: That's not a terribly good comparison, is it?


Note 2: In Slippy's dialogue box, the word "fogey" is misspelt as "fogy".
Falco: - -


Note 3: Prior to ''Ultimate'', Peppy's channel window closes and reopens quickly between each of his lines. In ''Ultimate'', his portrait will remain on screen during all of his lines. Despite this, the sound of the channel opening can still be heard.
(Actually, this makes sense in the Japanese dialog. "Somen" is a type of noodle, but it also means "injury". Peppy mistakes "somen" as a noodle instead of the latter.)


====Adventure Mode dialogue====
====Dogfight====
=====Conversation 1=====
:'''Peppy:''' Fox! Are you alright?


:'''Slippy:''' Looks like we're just in time!
Falco: Pff! We meet again, Star Wolf!


:'''Falco:''' Sheesh! You're such a pain!
Krystal: Uugh! These guys are no joke!


=====Conversation 2=====
Leon: Heh, I'll make sure to work you over real good before I turn you into scrap metal.
:'''Falco:''' Fox, we've come to help!


:'''Peppy:''' Looks like you've taken a beating. Hang on!
Panther: Do you see my red rose? It marks your imminent death!


:'''Slippy:''' We've got the enemy on our monitors.
Wolf: Listen close: I won't let a single one of you leave here alive! And Fox, remember this! I'm the one who's going to take you down!


=====Conversation 3=====
====Starry Space====
:'''Slippy:''' Fox! Are you alright?


:'''Peppy:''' Be careful, Fox! This doesn't look good!
Falco: Fox looks like he's got his hands full.


:'''Falco:''' Try to stay alive, huh, Fox?
Krystal: Yes, he's putting up quite a fight, though.


=====Conversation 4=====
Peppy: You know, he reminds me of his father every day.
:'''Falco:''' I found our prey! Stay clear!


:'''Peppy:''' Get ready, everybody!
Slippy: Hey, this is no time for chitchat guys! Shouldn't we be worried about Fox? He's out there with no air! How's he supposed to breathe?!


:'''Slippy:''' I'm right behind you guys!
Peppy: Bah! Way to go, Slippy. No one would've even noticed if you hadn't opened up your big yap!


===Falco Lombardi===
===Falco Lombardi===
Conversations 2-5 are also used in [[Adventure Mode]]
====Corneria====


====Conversation 1====
Fox: Looks like we made it to Corneria. Falco sure is a sticking it to 'em out there.
:'''Peppy:''' Look out, Slippy! Enemies behind you!


:'''Slippy:''' Fox! I think someone's on my tail!
Krystal: Yes, but don't you find it... odd? I've never even seen some of his opponents before.


:'''Fox:''' Get out of there, Slippy!
Fox: Well it is a [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|brawl]], after all. Everyone's in on the fight!


:'''Slippy:''' Thanks, Fox! I thought I was done for!
Peppy: That gives me itching for some action. I want in!


Note: This is a reference to Slippy's perhaps infamous tendency to get chased down by enemies more than the other members.
Slippy: No way! Old-timers like you ride the bench. This fight's mine!


====Conversation 2====
Krystal: What are you two thinking? I'm the only one who can come through in a fight like this!
:'''Peppy:''' Falco! Don't let them get you!


:'''Slippy:''' This has gotten interesting! I'm on the edge of my seat!
====Asteroid Field====


:'''Fox:''' Calm down! This is where the real battle begins!
Fox: It's an asteroid belt. We've got to clear a path!


====Conversation 3====
Slippy: EEEP! OH, THIS IS BAAAD!
:'''Slippy:''' Hold A to charge up shots!


:'''Peppy:''' Cut your way through with a boost!
Peppy: Get ahold of yourself, Slippy! Falco's counting on us.


:'''Fox:''' Aren't you guys thinking of [[Star Fox 64|something else]]?
Krystal: If we let a fragment fly off toward the ship, it could cause serious damage!


Note: Charged shots and boosts are both techniques used in all ''Star Fox'' games thus far
Slippy: I wouldn't worry too much. Falco's a tough old bird. He can take care of himself.


====Conversation 4====
Peppy: Well... yeah, I guess you've got a point there.
:'''Fox:''' All ships report in!
 
====Skirmish====
 
Slippy: Wow! We're in the middle of a full-scale skirmish!


:'''Slippy:''' This is Slippy! I'm all right! I'm all right!
Fox: Keep your hat on, Slippy!


:'''Peppy:''' Peppy here! I'm a little shaken, but I'm OK. (Peppy's window reappears)  Sorry... I've always wanted to say that.
Peppy: Yeah, look at Falco. He's not letting the skirmish slow him up one bit.


Note: This is a reference to the ending of various stages in ''Star Fox 64''. Members would comment on their status from the amount of health they have.
Krystal: Yes, he's the fighter, all right. Who else would have the guts to open a communication channel during a fistfight?


====Conversation 5====
Peppy: Just the same, watch yourself, Falco. Don't go getting yourself toasted by a stray laser!
This dialogue is removed in ''for Nintendo 3DS''.


:'''Slippy:''' Wait right there, [[Andross]]! All ships report!
Slippy: Good luck, Falco!


:'''Peppy:''' Hey, Slippy! Don't get too excited!
====Dogfight====


:'''Fox:''' Keep it together! Things are about to get ugly!
Wolf: Playtime ends here, Star Fox!


===Event 23: Slippy's Invention===
Fox: Star Wolf!
The following quote only plays at the beginning of [[Event 23: Slippy's Invention]] as soon as the [[announcer]] yells "Go!"


:'''Slippy:''' How's the cloaking device I invented?
Leon: Hey there, boy, how do you like my new ship? Want to see what it can do?


==[[Lylat Cruise]] taunts==
Panther: I am known as Panther Caroso. I salute you, my enemy.
[[File:Taunts-Brawl-Fox-SmashTaunt.png|thumb|Peppy Hare is one of the ''Star Fox'' series characters present in this Easter egg.]]
===Backgrounds===
*Corneria: Despite Leon calling it a "blue planet", Peppy and Fox refer to it as Corneria. This is the main planet in the game series.
*Asteroid fields: Asteroids at the background appear while an [[Arwing]] appears to shoot it.
*Skirmish: Space fleets firing at each other.
*Dogfight: Star Wolf vs. Star Fox with the [[Great Fox]] flying in the background.
*Starry space: A starry field.


===Fox McCloud===
Krystal: Hmph, it looks like the gang's all here.
====Corneria====
:'''Peppy:''' Look, we're passing Corneria. Protecting this planet sure has been a lot of work.


:'''Falco:''' Yeah, it's kept things from getting too boring around here.
Peppy: Good enough! Come on, Fox, let's get 'em!


:'''Wolf:''' Don't think you can take a breather just yet, Team Star Fox!
Slippy: Hey, don't forget about me!


:'''Peppy:''' Ahhh! Star Wolf!
====Starry Space====


:'''Wolf:''' You know you are all like us. Our fates are intertwined. We are destined to meet in battle.
Fox: Ah, finally a day free of space combat.


:'''Wolf:''' After all, what fun is there to be had in peace and quiet? A real warrior can only live in the battlefield!
Krystal: That may be so, but it's looking like a regular war zone on top of the ship.


:'''Falco:''' Then why don't you show me what a real warrior's like, fuzzball! I'm ready if you are!
Peppy: Falco! If you lose this one, I'm never going to let you live it down! Go, Falco! Never give up! Trust your instincts!


:'''Slippy:''' Boy, those guys are always itching to fight, huh?
Slippy: Ha! I think I've heard that line before!


====Asteroid Field====
Peppy: Erm, sorry, Fox. I kind of channeled your dad there.
:'''Peppy:''' We've hit an asteroid field! Protect the main ship at all costs!


:'''Falco:''' Take it easy, Peppy. We just need to blow up some of these asteroids, right?
Fox: Yeah, I noticed, Peppy.


:'''Slippy:''' Don't worry about us, Fox! We've got things covered here. You just focus on the battle!
===Wolf O'Donnell===
====Corneria====


:'''Krystal:''' Don't let us down, Fox!
Leon: A blue planet... It's actually quite breathtaking, isn't it?


:'''Slippy:''' Blast 'em once for me, buddy!
Slippy: Boy, I'll say! Look at all that water! It's a paradise for guys like you and me, huh? Without a quick dip in the water now and then, we get all dried out!


====Skirmish====
Leon: Listen, I'm no frog. Don't try to stick us in the same group!
This dialog uses a play-on-words in Japanese. "Somen" is a type of noodle, but it also means "injury". Peppy mistakes "somen" as a noodle instead of the latter.


:'''Peppy:''' We're in the middle of an interplanetary skirmish. Stay sharp and keep an eye on your six!
Slippy: But, you've got a long stretchy tongue just like me, right?


:'''Slippy:''' Eeep! This place is a war zone!
Leon: Didn't I just tell you to drop the subject?


:'''Falco:''' Heh, what are you worried about? These guys are weaker than overcooked noodles!
====Asteroid Field====


:'''Peppy:''' Mmm? Overcooked noodles? What's that supposed to mean?
Leon: Star Wolf is here in the asteroid field.


:'''Krystal:''' That's not a terribly good comparison, is it?
Krystal: Oh my. This looks like it's going to be rather nasty.


:'''Falco:''' .....
Panther: Worry not, my dear. Should you find yourself in harm's way, I would use the very ship I pilot to protect you.


====Dogfight====
Krystal: Oh, I feel so much better hearing that. You're such a gentleman, Panther.
:'''Falco:''' Pff! We meet again, Star Wolf!


:'''Krystal:''' Uugh! These guys are no joke!
Falco: Do me a favor and get creamed by an asteroid while you're at it! I'll sleep better at night once you do.


:'''Leon:''' Heh, I'll make sure to work you over real good before I turn you into scrap metal.
Panther: Cease your jabbering, parrot!


:'''Panther:''' Do you see my red rose? It marks your imminent death!
Falco: What? What did you just say?!


:'''Wolf:''' Listen close: I won't let a single one of you leave here alive!
(Note: Due to the fact that this background lasts for a short time, the dialogue for Wolf's smash taunt continues through the next background change)


:'''Wolf:''' And Fox, remember this! I'm the one who's going to take you down!
====Skirmish====


====Starry Space====
Panther: A skirmish... Just the place for a bunch of space drifters like ourselves.
:'''Falco:''' Fox looks like he's got his hands full.


:'''Krystal:''' Yes, he's putting up quite a fight, though.
Leon: Star Wolf is really giving it his all out there. I'm more than a bit envious of him. Those razor-sharp claws. Those keen fangs. He moves wildly and fights with the spirit of a warrior possessed. Any prey he sets his eye on is doomed to be shredded to pieces.


:'''Peppy:''' You know, he reminds me of his father every day.
Panther: Umm... Leon? Are you feeling all right?


:'''Slippy:''' Hey, this is no time for chitchat, guys!
Leon: Yes, of course! Fine! Just fine. Haa ha haaaaa ha haaahaaa...


:'''Slippy:''' Shouldn't we be worried about Fox? He's out there with no air! How's he supposed to breathe?!
Panther: Set me straight here Leon. Are you envious of the shred-DER or the shred-DEE?


:'''Peppy:''' Bah! Way to go, Slippy. No one would've even noticed if you hadn't opened up your big yap!
====Dogfight====


===Falco Lombardi===
Panther: You're foolish to anger me, bird. You must have a death wish!
====Corneria====
:'''Fox:''' Looks like we made it to Corneria. Falco sure is a sticking it to 'em out there.


:'''Krystal:''' Yes, but don't you find it... odd? I've never even seen some of his opponents before.
Falco: Feh! You guys just won't learn your lesson, will you?


:'''Fox:''' Well, it is a brawl, after all. Everyone's in on the fight!
Leon: Impudent fowl! You will kneel before me!


:'''Peppy:''' That gives me itching for some action. I want in!
Slippy: Ahhh! Guys, Falco's in trouble!


:'''Slippy:''' No way! Old-timers like you ride the bench. This fight's mine!
Falco: Can it, Slippy! The tougher the scrape, the brighter I shine! Keep back! I'll be the one to bag this cat!


:'''Krystal:''' What are you two thinking? I'm the only one who can come through in a fight like this!
====Starry Space====


Note: Krystal notes that she is the only one between her, Slippy, and Peppy that can put up with the fights in ''Smash''. This would eventually happen with her appearance as an Assist Trophy in ''Ultimate''.
Krystal: My, the stars out here are so beautiful.


====Asteroid Field====
Panther: Oh, but not as beautiful as your radiant self, my dear Krystal.
:'''Fox:''' It's an asteroid belt. We've got to clear a path!


:'''Slippy:''' EEEP! OH, THIS IS BAAAD!
Krystal: Oh Panther, you always were quite the flatterer.


:'''Peppy:''' Get ahold of yourself, Slippy! Falco's counting on us.
Panther: Amazing, isn't it? To think that the two of us were fated to cross paths in such a sparkling, endless galaxy. Even if we were on opposite sides of space, I would speed to your side, faster than a shooting star. Krystal, know that my beating heart burns red hot for you, as red as the rose I hold.


:'''Krystal:''' If we let a fragment fly off toward the ship, it could cause serious damage!
Falco: Good grief! Where do you come up with this stuff?! Enough already!


:'''Slippy:''' I wouldn't worry too much. Falco's a tough old bird. He can take care of himself.
==[[Corneria]] and [[Venom]] taunts==


:'''Peppy:''' Well... yeah, I guess you've got a point there.

====Smash Taunt dialogue====
=====Conversation 1=====


====Skirmish====
Slippy: Use the B button and the Control Stick combos for special moves!
:'''Slippy:''' Wow! We're in the middle of a full-scale skirmish!


:'''Fox:''' Keep your hat on, Slippy!
Peppy: Press Up, X, or Y to jump!


:'''Peppy:''' Yeah, look at Falco. He's not letting the skirmish slow him up one bit.
Falco: What? You're just now explaining the controls?!?


:'''Krystal:''' Yes, he's the fighter, all right. Who else would have the guts to open a communication channel during a fistfight?
(Note: This is a reference to StarFox 64's tendency of [[Wikipedia:Fourth wall|breaking the fourth wall]] to explain the controls. However, the controls can be fully explained to the player in StarFox 64's training mode)


:'''Peppy:''' Just the same, watch yourself, Falco. Don't go getting yourself toasted by a stray laser!
=====Conversation 2=====


:'''Slippy:''' Good luck, Falco!
Slippy: Wow! I almost feel like going for a swim!


====Dogfight====
Falco: You swim in the ocean too?
:'''Wolf:''' Playtime ends here, Star Fox!


:'''Fox:''' Star Wolf!
Slippy: Don't make fun of me, birdbrain!


:'''Leon:''' Hey there, boy, how do you like my new ship? Want to see what it can do?
Peppy: Ahh, to be young again...


:'''Panther:''' I am known as Panther Caroso. I salute you, my enemy.
=====Conversation 3=====


:'''Krystal:''' Hmph, it looks like the gang's all here.
Peppy: Fox! Be careful! I have a bad feeling about this.


:'''Peppy:''' Good enough! Come on, Fox, let's get 'em!
Slippy: What? Everything's fine - I'm here!


:'''Slippy:''' Hey, don't forget about me!
Falco: That's what worries me the most...


====Starry Space====
=====Conversation 4=====


:'''Fox:''' Ah, finally, a day free of space combat.
Falco: Behind you, Fox! Stay alert!


:'''Krystal:''' That may be so, but it's looking like a regular war zone on top of the ship.
Peppy: Just don't give up! Trust your senses.


:'''Peppy:''' Falco! If you lose this one, I'm never going to let you live it down!
Slippy: Come on, Fox!


:'''Peppy:''' Go, Falco! Never give up! Trust your instincts!
(Note: This is a reference to the team cheering for Fox during some points <!--be more specific if you can--> of StarFox 64)


:'''Slippy:''' Ha! I think I've heard that line before!
=====Conversation 5=====


:'''Peppy:''' Erm, sorry, Fox. I kind of channeled your dad there.
Peppy: Watch your radar carefully, Fox! ''[Peppy's window closes, but soon opens up again]''<br>
Keep your eyes open! ''[again, Peppy's window closes, only to open in the next instant]''<br>
C'mon, Fox! What are you doing?!?


:'''Fox:''' Yeah, I noticed, Peppy.
Slippy: Be quiet, you old fogey!


===Wolf O'Donnell===
(Note 1: This is a reference to Peppy being the most talkative of the group, so much so that he even has more lines of dialogue than Fox. His lines are many tips and boss strategies)<br>
====Corneria====
(Note 2: In Slippy's dialogue box, the word "fogey" is misspelt as "fogy")
:'''Leon:''' A blue planet... It's actually quite breathtaking, isn't it?


:'''Slippy:''' Boy, I'll say! Look at all that water!
====Adventure Mode dialogue====


:'''Slippy:''' It's a paradise for guys like you and me, huh? Without a quick dip in the water now and then, we get all dried out!
=====Conversation 1=====


:'''Leon:''' Listen, I'm no frog. Don't try to stick us in the same group!
Peppy: Fox! Are you alright?


:'''Slippy:''' But, you've got a long stretchy tongue just like me, right?
Slippy: Looks like we're just in time!


:'''Leon:''' Didn't I just tell you to drop the subject?
Falco: Sheesh! You're such a pain!


The following quotes are separated in two different ways.
=====Conversation 2=====


In ''Brawl'',
Falco: Fox, we've come to help!
:'''Slippy:''' Boy, I'll say! Look at all that water!


:'''Slippy:''' It's a paradise for guys like you and me, huh? Without a quick dip in the water now and then, we get all dried out!
Peppy: Looks like you've taken a beating. Hang on!


In ''Ultimate'',
Slippy: We've got the enemy on our monitors.
:'''Slippy:''' Boy, I'll say! Look at all that water! It's a paradise for guys like you and me, huh?


:'''Slippy:''' Without a quick dip in the water now and then, we get all dried out!
=====Conversation 3=====


====Asteroid Field====
Slippy: Fox! Are you alright?
Due to the fact that this background lasts for a short time, the dialogue for Wolf's Smash Taunt continues through the next background change.
:'''Leon:''' Star Wolf is here in the asteroid field.


:'''Krystal:''' Oh my. This looks like it's going to be rather nasty.
Peppy: Be careful, Fox! This doesn't look good!


:'''Panther:''' Worry not, my dear.
Falco: Try to stay alive, huh, Fox?


:'''Panther:''' Should you find yourself in harm's way, I would use the very ship I pilot to protect you.
=====Conversation 4=====


:'''Krystal:''' Oh, I feel so much better hearing that. You're such a gentleman, Panther.
Falco: I found our prey! Stay clear!


:'''Falco:''' Do me a favor and get creamed by an asteroid while you're at it! I'll sleep better at night once you do.
Peppy: Get ready, everybody!


:'''Panther:''' Cease your jabbering, parrot!
Slippy: I'm right behind you guys!


:'''Falco:''' What did you just say?!
===Falco Lombardi===
(''*'' Denotes dialogue that are also used in [[adventure mode]])
====Conversation 1====


====Skirmish====
Peppy: Look out, Slippy! Enemies behind you!
:'''Panther:''' A skirmish... Just the place for a bunch of space drifters like ourselves.


:'''Leon:''' Star Wolf is really giving it his all out there. I'm more than a bit envious of him.
Slippy: Fox! I think someone's on my tail!


:'''Leon:''' Those razor-sharp claws, those keen fangs!
Fox: Get out of there, Slippy!


:'''Leon:''' He moves wildly, and fights with the spirit of a warrior possessed!
Slippy: Thanks, Fox! I thought I was done for!


:'''Leon:''' Any prey he sets his eye on is doomed to be shredded to pieces!
(Note: This is a reference to Slippy's perhaps infamous tendency to get chased down by enemies more than the other members.)


:'''Panther:''' Umm... Leon? Are you...feeling all right?
====Conversation 2''*''====


:'''Leon:''' Yes, of course! Fine! Just fine.
Peppy: Falco! Don't let them get you!


:'''Leon:''' Haa ha haaaaa ha haaahaaa...
Slippy: This has gotten interesting! I'm on the edge of my seat!


:'''Panther:''' Set me straight here, Leon. Are you envious of the shred-DER or the shred-DEE?
Fox: Calm down! This is where the real battle begins!


====Dogfight====
====Conversation 3''*''====
:'''Panther:''' You're foolish to anger me, bird. You must have a death wish!


:'''Falco:''' Feh! You guys just won't learn your lesson, will you?
Slippy: Hold A to charge up shots!


:'''Leon:''' Impudent fowl! You will kneel before me!
Peppy: Cut your way through with a boost!


:'''Slippy:''' Ahhh! Guys, Falco's in trouble!
Fox: Aren't you guys thinking of [[Star Fox 64|something else]]?


:'''Falco:''' Can it, Slippy! The tougher the scrape, the brighter I shine!
(Note: Charged shots and boosts are both techniques used in all ''Star Fox'' games thus far)
====Conversation 4====


:'''Falco:''' Keep back! I'll be the one to bag this cat!
Fox: All ships report in!


====Starry Space====
Slippy: This is Slippy! I'm all right! I'm all right!
:'''Krystal:''' My, the stars out here are so beautiful.


:'''Panther:''' Oh, but not as beautiful as your radiant self, my dear Krystal.
Peppy: Peppy here! I'm a little shaken, but I'm OK. (Peppy's window reappears)  Sorry... I've always wanted to say that.


:'''Krystal:''' Oh Panther, you always were quite the flatterer.
(Note: This is a reference to the ending of stages in Star Fox 64. Members would comment on their status from the amount of health they have.)


:'''Panther:''' Amazing, isn't it? To think that the two of us were fated to cross paths in such a sparkling, endless galaxy.
====Conversation 5''*''====


:'''Panther:''' Even if we were on opposite sides of space, I would speed to your side, faster than a shooting star.
Slippy: Wait right there, [[Andross]]! All ships report!


:'''Panther:''' Krystal, know that my beating heart burns red hot for you, as red as the rose I hold.
Peppy: Hey, Slippy! Don't get too excited!


:'''Falco:''' Good grief! Where do you come up with this stuff?! Enough already!
Fox: Keep it together! Things are about to get ugly!

[[File:Conversation Orbital Gate Assault.png|thumb|right|Slippy Toad is one of the ''Star Fox'' series characters present in this easter egg.]]
A Star Fox conversation appears on this stage. Unlike previous Smash Taunts, the Orbital Gate Assault conversation requires that neither of the ''Star Fox'' characters be in the match. It is triggered if all human players hold down ZR or ZL (or the equivalent) when selecting this stage on the Stage Selection screen. The conversation does not play if the [[Ω form]] is selected.
A Star Fox conversation is confirmed to appear on this stage. ''Star Fox'' characters are not required to trigger the conversation. It's currently unknown how to trigger the conversation.
