Wolf O'Donnell (ウルフ オドネル, Urufu Odoneru) is a hidden character in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Though not officially confirmed on the Smash Bros. DOJO!! website, Wolf has been confirmed via a Japanese leak of the game. He appears to be somewhat similar to Fox and Falco, although various videos shown that he is much more unique, moreso than Falco to Fox.

His look in this game is a variation of his Assault/Command outfit. He still wears the spiked shoulder pads, but it is now separated instead of being connected. He wears forearm guards with fingerless gloves for his claws. His vest is unzipped, showing a black sleeveless undershirt and what seems to be a locket. He also dons a studded collar around his neck, a wolf-shaped belt buckle, and a chain snapped on his belt which makes a clanking noise every time he lands on a platform. He acts feral here, something he doesn't show in Assault or Command (although he does howl and growl in Command). While he occasionally does kicks, most of his regular attacks involve clawing the enemy. He also goes in all-fours when crouching, albeit he cannot crawl. He howls when being Star KO'd, and two of his taunts - where he looks at the sky and howls, and the other where he slams his right hand to the ground and growls like a defending wolf - complement his beastly nature here.

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Is quite fast
• Fairly heavy
• Side-B can be used as a recovery due to the propulsion.
• His Land master Final Smash is very powerful.
• Can kill his opponents as fairly high percentages.

Cons:

• His Land master Final Smash has poor mobility.
• His reflector is virtually useless on the Ground except for reflecting Projectiles.
• His Recovery can be hard to aim as it comes out the minute the Up-B button is pressed.
• His Blaster has more warm-up to it but is more powerful than either Fox's or Falco's.

How to Unlock

• In the stage "Iseki" (Ruins) skip the first door you pass when being lowered in to the pit. Instead enter the second door at the bottom. Then, defeat him afterwards.
• Play 450 VS matches. Then, defeat him afterwards.
• With Boss Mode unlocked, finish Boss Mode as Fox.

Role in the Subspace Emissary

Wolf is an optional character in Subspace Emmisary, much like Toon Link and Jigglypuff. He will only appear if you rescue Zelda from Petey Piranha. If you do this, than you can find a secret door in one of the stages, it will take you to Lylat Cruise, where you will fight Wolf. Other than that, he doesn't have a major role in the Subspace Emissary.
