Panther Caroso (パンサー・カルロッソ, Panther Calrosso) is a character from the Star Fox series.
Origin
Panther first appears in Star Fox: Assault as a new member of the Star Wolf team after both Andrew Oikonny and Pigma Dengar were kicked out. He would formally introduce himself to the Star Fox team before attacking team. Upon defeat, Panther started flirting with Krystal. This would annoy everyone on both teams, but it annoyed Falco especially, who would start an intense rivalry between the two. Panther and the rest of Star Wolf would help Star Fox during the Aparoid invasion. He acted nonchalantly throughout the entire battle, getting the most distressed when he noticed his favorite restaurant was destroyed. Still, he managed to distract the aparoids, which gave team Star Fox enough time to save the day.
Later, during the events of Star Fox: Command, bounties were put on the heads of Star Wolf members, Panther included. Depending on the various endings, Panther could either live on the run, be turned in for the reward, get together with Krystal, be treated as a hero of the Lylat system, or a combination of these outcomes.

Trophy
- Panther Caroso
- The newest member of the Star Wolf team, rivals of Team Star Fox. A show-off who often embarrasses his teammates, he considers himself quite the ladies' cat and can hardly contain himself from making passes at attractive females, including Krystal, who he's clearly smitten with. All things said, he's still a highly skilled pilot.

- Panther Caroso
- This Star Wolf pilot's flying skills are as stunning as you'd expect, but the cheesy lines are what you'll really remember. He's constantly flirting with women, and the rose he holds adds an extra touch of swagger. His feelings for Krystal seem genuine, but who knows where that will lead.
