The '''Fighting Alloy Team''' (謎のザコ敵軍団, ''Nazo no Zako Tekigun Dan'', also known as the '''Mysterious Small Fry Enemy Army Group''') is the ''[[Super Smash Bros.

The Fighting Alloys all used [[clone]]d moveset of fighters: Red uses [[Captain Falcon (SSBB)|Captain Falcon]]'s attacks, Blue [[Zelda (SSBB)|Zelda]]'s. The Yellow Alloy attacks like [[Mario (SSBB)|Mario]], and the Green Alloy uses [[Kirby (SSBB)|Kirby]]'s moves. None of the alloys can use their base character's [[special move]]s or grabs, however. When playing a [[Multi-Man Brawl]], a normal fighter will occasionally replace every 25th alloys to break the monotony.

==Overview==
''A member of the Fighting Alloys. This one's sporting a red body. Built like an everyday hero, he fights like one too.

Alloys are shiny, robot-like figures with cavities where their faces would otherwise be, and white spheres attached to their limbs and within their facial cavities. There are four types of Alloys, each with its own body shape, color, and cloned moveset:


===Trophy Info: Blue Alloy===
*'''{{SSBB|Red Alloy}}''' ({{ja|ザコレッド}} ''Zakoreddo'', '''Red Small Fry'''): a masculine body; {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}}'s moveset.
''A beautiful, cobalt blue member of the Alloys. This dainty female-form Alloy relies on a less rough-and-tumble style of fighting. The core at the center of her body provides power for the whole group of Alloys and plays a key role in holding body parts together. However, this is not necessarily a weak point, and attacking this core will not result in greater damage.'' Clearing [[100-Man Brawl]] with all Characters gets you this trophy.
*'''{{SSBB|Blue Alloy}}''' ({{ja|ザコブルー}} ''Zakoburū'', '''Blue Small Fry'''): a feminine body; {{SSBB|Zelda}}'s moveset.
*'''{{SSBB|Yellow Alloy}}''' ({{ja|ザコイエロー}} ''Zakoierō'', '''Yellow Small Fry'''): a short, stocky body with a large, horned head; {{SSBB|Mario}}'s moveset.
*'''{{SSBB|Green Alloy}}''' ({{ja|ザコグリーン}} ''Zakogurīn'', '''Green Small Fry'''): a very large, crested head with no body or legs, large feet and tiny arms; {{SSBB|Kirby}}'s moveset with forward, back, and up throws borrowed from {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}}. While the other three Alloys get two jumps each, the Green Alloy gets five.


===Trophy Info: Yellow Alloy===
==Fighting==
''A member of the Alloys who stands out from the bunch with a sharp yellow body and horns. He moves like Mario but is bigger and has a longer reach. He can't, however, use items or special moves. Also remember that he is not controlled by a human player, so this is your big chance--show him who's boss!'' Defeating 100 Alloys in [[Endless Melee and Brawl|Endless Brawl]] gets you this trophy.
While the Fighting Alloys possess the animations and standard attacks of playable characters, they are not able to use any [[special move]]s. They also cannot [[shield]] or use any dodges. They can [[grab]] and be grabbed by players, but cannot grab and hang from edges like playable characters. They cannot [[taunt]] and they cannot [[tech]]. They cannot pick up or hold items, but they can interact with most items that do not require picking up. For example, they may hit [[Soccer Ball]]s and gain invincibility from [[Starman (item)|Starmen]], but are not affected by [[Super Mushroom|Super]] or [[Poison Mushroom]]s. Alloys cannot be inflicted with the [[flower]] ailment. There are no sound effects when using moves.

It is possible for human players to play as Fighting Alloys through [[hacking]] the game. The following applies when fighting as an Alloy:
*Attempting to use a [[Final Smash]] will freeze the Alloy in a regular pose until it is hit by something.
*In matches that end with a victory screen, the game freezes when the match finishes. This can be avoided via the use of Ocarina codes.
*The Alloys' losing animation is the sitting pose that occurs after a [[pratfall]], and their [[victory pose]] is their standing animation.
*Saving a replay will cause the game to freeze when loading the replay section of the vault. This will occur until vault data is cleared.
*When at the result screen, the narrator says the resembling character instead of the alloy's name. See the picture of yellow alloy with the Mario emblem. But if the hack is done on Dolphin emulator, the victory screen will show the Smash emblem and the announcer will say "The winner is Fighting Alloy Team.", and the winner text will show its game ID.

*If the Alloys are used in [[Multi-Man Brawl]], the game will crash after one enemy is defeated.

*Alloy is a type of metal.
*In real life, an alloy is a metal composed of multiple base metals. Similarly, the Alloys combine facets of their two predecessors: parts of their bodies are blocky like the Polygons, and they have a transparent purple core that is very reminiscent of the Wire Frames.
*Alloy means to mix (metals or metal with nonmetal according to the periodic table) so as to form an alloy. The designs of the Fighting Alloy Team seem as if the Fighting Wire Frames, and the Fighting Polygons were merged together to get the Fighting Alloys.
*The Yellow Alloy's appearance is very similar to the citizens of the planet Geolyte from the Nintendo DS game ''Meteos'', a game [[Masahiro Sakurai]] was a designer on.
*The Yellow Alloy's appearance is very similar to the cyan colored stick figure characters from Meteos, another one of Masahiro Sakurai's games, though its attacks are similar to [[Mario (SSBB)|Mario]]'s.
*An unused announcer file containing the speech "Fighting Alloy Team" implies that the team was to appear in {{SSBB|Classic Mode}} at some point in development, like their predecessors.
*They are the only characters in Brawl that are not playable but can be grabbed. Sandbag exists as an Item instead of a character and thus can't be grabbed. Enemies in the Subspace Emissary are either Bosses that can't be grabbed anyway, or enemy-class fighters, which cannot be grabbed except for the Primids. Similarly, the Alloys are the only characters that can grab other characters (with the exception of some Bosses) which can prove fatal in Cruel Brawl.
*Red Alloys are able to use [[Flame|fire]] in their side-smashes, because of Captain Falcon also having using fire in his respective side-smash. However, Blue Alloys cannot use magic, despite their movesets being based off of Zelda (apart from their up smash, which deals [[electric]] damage). Also, Yellow Alloys have a fire graphic in their side smashes, but produces no fire effect and the damage and knockback is consistent, no matter where their side smashes land (including the graphic).
*[[Flower]] has no effect on them, but they can still pick up a [[Starman (item)|Starman]].
*The Red Alloy is the only Alloy that has an unlockable character's move set (namely, Captain Falcon).
*Hackers have managed to get alloys as playable characters.  Attempting to use a [[Final Smash]] will just freeze the Alloy in a regular pose until it gets hit by someone else.
*All Alloys share most of their movement attributes with Mario, with the main exception being their double jump.  
*The Alloy's (Blue, Red, Green and Yellow) are unable to grab the edge of the stage.
*All Alloys have 40 frames of landing lag for all their aerial attacks, regardless of what the base character has.
* The Red Alloy's resemble [[Trace]], but more bulkier
*All alloys have a 60 frame [[meteor cancel]] window, much like {{SSBB|Wolf}}.
*The Alloys' individual Japanese names, which consist of "Zako" suffixed by their respective color, might be a reference to the ''{{s|wikipedia|Super Sentai}}'' series (which is the basis for the ''{{s|wikipedia|Power Rangers}}'' franchise), in which many teams have their members' theme naming follow the same convention. The Red Alloy trophy stating that red usually serves a leadership role in color-coded groups also references the franchise, in which typically the Red Rangers lead the teams.
*The Yellow Alloy trophy in ''Brawl'' states that it can't use items. However, if it touches a [[Super Star]], it's invincible.

The Fighting Alloy Team as they appear in Ultimate.
Universe Super Smash Bros.
Level(s) appears in Multi-Man Brawl

The Fighting Alloy Team (謎のザコ敵軍団, Mysterious Small Fry Enemy Corps) is a group of non-playable enemies found in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Multi-Man Brawl. They fulfill the same role as Super Smash Bros. Melee's Fighting Wire Frames and Super Smash Bros.'s Fighting Polygon Team. Unlike their predecessors, they do not appear in the main one player games, only making appearances in Multi-Man Brawl.[1]

Overview[edit]

Sonic and Mario fighting a team of Alloys in Co-op.

Alloys are shiny, robot-like figures with cavities where their faces would otherwise be, and white spheres attached to their limbs and within their facial cavities. There are four types of Alloys, each with its own body shape, color, and cloned moveset:

  • Red Alloy (ザコレッド Zakoreddo, Red Small Fry): a masculine body; Captain Falcon's moveset.
  • Blue Alloy (ザコブルー Zakoburū, Blue Small Fry): a feminine body; Zelda's moveset.
  • Yellow Alloy (ザコイエロー Zakoierō, Yellow Small Fry): a short, stocky body with a large, horned head; Mario's moveset.
  • Green Alloy (ザコグリーン Zakogurīn, Green Small Fry): a very large, crested head with no body or legs, large feet and tiny arms; Kirby's moveset with forward, back, and up throws borrowed from Jigglypuff. While the other three Alloys get two jumps each, the Green Alloy gets five.

Fighting[edit]

While the Fighting Alloys possess the animations and standard attacks of playable characters, they are not able to use any special moves. They also cannot shield or use any dodges. They can grab and be grabbed by players, but cannot grab and hang from edges like playable characters. They cannot taunt and they cannot tech. They cannot pick up or hold items, but they can interact with most items that do not require picking up. For example, they may hit Soccer Balls and gain invincibility from Starmen, but are not affected by Super or Poison Mushrooms. Alloys cannot be inflicted with the flower ailment. There are no sound effects when using moves.

Trophies[edit]

Red Alloy[edit]

The Red Alloy trophy is unlocked by defeating five Alloys in Cruel Brawl.

A beautiful, cobalt blue member of the Alloys. This dainty female-form Alloy relies on a less rough-and-tumble style of fighting. The core at the center of her body provides power for the whole group of Alloys and plays a key role in holding body parts together. However, this is not necessarily a weak point, and attacking this core will not result in greater damage.

Yellow Alloy[edit]

The Yellow Allow trophy is unlocked by defeating 100 Alloys in Endless Brawl.

Yellow Alloy's trophy in Brawl
Yellow Alloy
A member of the Alloys who stands out from the bunch with a sharp yellow body and horns. He moves like Mario but is bigger and has a longer reach. He can't, however, use items or special moves. Also remember that he is not controlled by a human player, so this is your big chance--show him who's boss!

Green Alloy[edit]

The Green Alloy trophy is unlocked by clearing a 15-Minute Brawl.

Green Alloy's trophy in Brawl

  • When doing a metal, flower, bunny, curry, or reflect match, alloys will be normal.
  • If the Alloys are used in Multi-Man Brawl, the game will crash after one enemy is defeated.
