'''Vulpix''' ({{ja|ロコン|Rokon}}, ''Rokon'') is a creature in the {{uv|Pokémon}} media franchise.
'''Vulpix''' ({{ja|ロコン|Rokon}}, ''Rokon'') is a fictional creature in the {{uv|Pokémon}} media franchise.
==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
===Vulpix===
====As a [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon====
The original form of Vulpix is one of its two forms that appear in ''Ultimate''.  Once summoned, it will attack fighters with Fire Spin, which is similar to how [[Fennekin]] used Incinerate in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.


==Origin==
===Vulpix (Alola form)===
{{pkmn|Vulpix}} is a Fire-type Pokémon introduced in ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Red and Blue}}'', though it was exclusive to ''Blue'', acting as the [[bulbapedia:Game-exclusive Pokémon|equivalent]] to {{pkmn|Growlithe}} in ''Red''. Vulpix is categorized within the Pokédex at #037 as the "Fox Pokémon", and it evolves into {{pkmn|Ninetales}} with the help of a {{iw|bulbapedia|Fire Stone}}.

{{cquote|''This Pokémon freezes fighters with icy breath.''|cite=[https://www.smashbros.com/en_US/blog/ Super Smash Blog]|source=[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site]]}}


Several {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation I}} Pokémon alternatively had Alolan {{iw|bulbapedia|regional variant}}s, introduced in ''Pokémon Sun and Moon''. They are adapted to a specific habitat in Alola, differing from their region of origin, Kanto, requiring aesthetic and type changes — among those was Vulpix, exclusive to ''Pokémon Sun'' and ''Ultra Sun'', inversely becoming an Ice-type Pokémon and requiring an {{iw|bulbapedia|Ice Stone}} to evolve. An Alolan Vulpix nicknamed "{{iw|bulbapedia|Snowy}}" is featured in the [[bulbapedia:Sun & Moon series|''Sun and Moon'' animated series]] as {{iw|bulbapedia|Lillie|anime}}'s first Pokémon.
The {{s|bulbapedia|Alola}} form of Vulpix is one of its two forms that appear in ''Ultimate''. Once summoned, it will attack fighters with Icy Wind, blowing a gust of chilling air towards their target, inflicting damage and temporarily [[Frozen|freezing]] them once they come into contact with the attack, similar to the [[Ice Climbers]]' [[Blizzard]].
{{clear}}


The Kantonian Vulpix uses {{iw|bulbapedia|Ember|move}}, a damaging Fire-type move, while Alolan Vulpix uses {{iw|bulbapedia|Powder Snow|move}}, a damaging Ice-type move that hits all adjacent opponents in a double or triple battle.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''==
In ''Pokémon Sun and Moon'', several {{s|bulbapedia|Generation I}} Pokémon alternatively had Alolan {{s|bulbapedia|regional variant}}s, which have adapted for the differing habitats from their origin region — among those was Vulpix; whom its species adapted as an Ice-type variant, with its evolution now requiring an Ice Stone; and Ninetales, adapted as an Ice/Fairy-type both exclusive to ''Sun'' and ''Ultra Sun''. All regional variants have differing visual traits to make them recognizable from their origin species; Alolan Vulpix, in comparison to its origin species, noticeably has a slimmer body, rounder ear shape and a different curly fur pattern on its head and tails. Appearances in media other than games include an Alolan Vulpix nicknamed "{{s|bulbapedia|Snowy}}" (シロン, ''Shiron'') featured in the [[bulbapedia:Sun & Moon series|''Sun and Moon'' animated series]] as [[bulbapedia:Lillie (anime)|Lillie]]'s first Pokémon, having hatched from an egg.
===As a Poké Ball Pokémon===
Both Vulpix in its normal form and its {{iw|bulbapedia|Alola}}n form make their debut as a [[Poké Ball]] Pokémon in this installment.


====Vulpix====
{{iw|bulbapedia|Fire Spin|move}} is a Fire-type special move with 35 base {{s|bulbapedia|power}}, 85% {{s|bulbapedia|accuracy}} and the ability to trap and continue damaging the opponent for 4-5 turns. Vulpix is able to learn the move by reaching level 15.
[[File:SSBUWebsiteVulpix6.jpg|thumb|left|Vulpix standing on {{SSBB|Yoshi's Island}}.]]
The normal form uses {{iw|bulbapedia|Ember|move}} to attack, which manifests as a fireball attack similar to [[Ness]]'s [[PK Fire]]. Unlike PK Fire, it does not need to hit an opponent to create a pillar of fire. It will turn towards an opponent before using Ember. It will randomly fire at an angle between 5°-25° downwards, causing it to sometimes land near Vulpix or far away. Ember will deal 4% if the shot makes contact with the opponent and then 2% every 9 frames (0.15 seconds). The fireball and fire pillar deals a bonus 1% [[shield damage]].
{{clrl}}


====Alolan Vulpix====
{{iw|bulbapedia|Icy Wind|move}} is an Ice-type special move with 55 base {{s|bulbapedia|power}}, 100% {{s|bulbapedia|accuracy}} and the ability to slow down the target and any adjacent Pokémon's [[bulbapedia:Statistic#Speed|Speed stat]] by one stage. Alolan Vulpix is able to learn the move by reaching level 15.{{clr}}

==Trivia==
The {{iw|bulbapedia|Alola}}n form uses {{iw|bulbapedia|Powder Snow|move}} to attack, inflicting damage and temporarily [[Frozen|freezing]] them once they come into contact with the attack, similar to the [[Ice Climbers]]' [[Blizzard]]. Like its normal form it will turn towards opponents before using Powder Snow. Also like its normal form the angle is random, though the attack's range is almost always the same making the randomness not as impactful as it is with Ember. Powder Snow's size gets slightly bigger as it moves and will deal 14% at the start, 13% from frames 3-6, 11% from frames 7-9, then drops down to 2.5% for frames 10-14, 2% from frames 15-19, 1.8% from frames 20-29, and finally 1.2% until the cloud dissipates.
*Vulpix is the first Poké Ball Pokémon to appear alongside an alternative version of itself, being its Alolan Form.
