===As an Assist Trophy===
Starman returns as an Assist Trophy in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', acting similarly to how it did in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', albeit KOing it now earns a point. [[Training Mode]] describes their Assist Trophy with the following: ''Warps around the stage, firing shots created from PSI.'' It cannot be summoned on Garreg Mach Monastery, King of Fighters Stadium, Mushroomy Kingdom, Norfair, nor Spear Pillar.

*A reflected PK Beam γ KO'ing Starman in one hit in Smash Run may be a reference to the original ''EarthBound Beginnings''. In that game, PK Beam γ is a one-hit KO move that Starman can use, and one strategy to defeat it is to reflect its PK Beam γ back at it with the [[Franklin Badge]].

*Appearing in the first ''Mother'' game, Starman is the only Assist Trophy that is older than any playable characters from the series it's from, since Ness first appeared in ''Mother 2'' (''EarthBound'') and Lucas in ''Mother 3''.
