Krystal (クリスタル, Krystal) is a character from the Star Fox series. A later addition to Team Star Fox, she also serves as a love interest to Fox McCloud.
Origin
Krystal was originally conceived as the protagonist of a late Nintendo 64 game by Rare called Dinosaur Planet. This title would not come to be as originally envisioned, as Nintendo requested that Rare transform this game into a Star Fox title and move production to the Nintendo GameCube (likely as Rare was being approached by other publishers at the time and the game’s release date being the day before the studio was bought out by Microsoft).
Krystal made her official debut in Star Fox Adventures. At the beginning of the game, she wields a staff to assist her telepathic abilities. She eventually loses the staff before being imprisoned by Andross. Fox eventually finds the staff and uses it throughout the game.
Krystal's appearance as an Assist Trophy is based off her appearance in Star Fox Adventures, and her ability to use the staff is based on the opening portion of said game. Ice Blast is the third upgrade for the staff which allows Fox to freeze enemies and environment objects solid for combat and puzzle solving.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
As a background character
Krystal was considered as a potential playable character during development, but was passed over in favor of Wolf, both because of time constraints and because Wolf's movement and animations would be more similar to Fox's and would require less development.[1]
As one of the many Star Fox characters who can be contacted via the Star Fox Smash Taunt on Lylat Cruise. Krystal appears in conversations triggered by all three potential characters: Fox, Falco, and Wolf.
Krystal also appears as a trophy and three stickers.
Trophy

- A member of the Star Fox team welcomed in Star Fox Adventures after the team met her on planet Sauria when responding to a distress signal.

In Super Smash Bros. 4
As a background character
Krystal reprises her role in the Star Fox Smash Taunt on the returning Lylat Cruise stage, and once again appears as a trophy in both versions.
Trophy
- Krystal
As befitting her name, Krystal was once imprisoned in a giant crystal. After rescuing her, Fox welcomed her into the team, where her telepathic abilities proved invaluable. She and Fox also became romantically involved. Did her telepathic powers help or hinder that relationship?

She and Fox also became romantically involved. We can't help but wonder if extrasensory perception helps or hinders a relationship!- : Star Fox Adventures (09/2002)

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
As an Assist Trophy
| “ | In addition to attacking with her staff, Krystal also uses Ice Blast to freeze fighters. Don't underestimate her! | ” |

Krystal appears in Ultimate as an Assist Trophy. Upon summon, she says "Try me" and attacks fighters with her staff, dealing freezing damage. She is also able to KO'd in the game. Training Mode describes her Assist Trophy: Fights with a staff and shoots ice magic at opponents. She reuses her voice clips from Star Fox Assault.
An easter egg found via camera manipulation reveals that Krystal doesn't wear an undergarment, and that her nether regions are fully detailed.[1] [2] [3]
