=== Leaving For a While ===
Sometime after Andross's defeat, Falco left Star Fox to fly solo due to currently unknown reasons. Shortly after Andross's ressurection on [[Sauria]], Falco returned to save Fox during the final battle. Falco helped Fox by supplying him with [[Smart Bomb|Smart Bombs]] during the battle. Falco returned to the [[Great Fox]] asked to rejoin the team, to which Fox agreed. When [[Krystal]] came aboard the ship and Fox showed obvious signs of his feeling, Falco said nothing, but silently encouraged him.

After the events of ''Star Fox: Assault'', Falco soon began to feel board as a member of Star Fox. With Peppy gone off to lead the Corneria Defense Force and Krystal forced off the team by Fox, Falco felt there was no need for him on a rapidly degrading team. Falco eventually left the team once more to fly solo.

''This story occurs if ROB 64 decides to go with Fox and Slippy after fighting Oikonny, or if Falco goes to Aquas after attempting to find Krystal in the Asteroid Belt''.


In this storyline, Falco decided to rejoin the team after meeting up on Aquas. Falco wanted to tell Fox something important, but the group was attacked by the Anglar before he could say anything. The team quickly dispatched the enemy forces and returned to the Great Fox II. Falco taunted Slippy by saying that his fiance, [[Amanda]], was more of an asset than he was and quickly changed his attitude when he told Fox the bad news about Krystal joining Star Wolf. The team then proceded towards [[Sector Z]] to help General Peppy who was being chased by the [[Anglar Emperor]].[[File:StarFoxReunited.jpg|left|thumb|Star Fox reunites after battling the Anglar.]] There, the team met up with Krystal, who had just been seperated from the rest of Star Wolf after destroying the Anglar base. Falco was glad to see Krystal again, but stood back when Fox got in the way. The four pilots then headed to the Asteroid Belt to help Peppy. When they arrived, Fox ordered his team to fall back if they ran into trouble, though Falco ignored this as usual and flew straight into the battle. The team defeated the Anglar Emperor and ended the Anglar army. Wolf's team arrived shortly after the battle and argued with Fox over taking their prize. Falco told them to calm down and said that they would be rid of their bounty before much longer and kept quiet as Krystal apologized to her old team as well as when Star Fox returned to Corneria to recieve their praise.

Falco arrived just in time to help Fox in his fight against the Anglar in the Asteroid Belt. After the battle, Falco asked Fox if they really needed Slippy and suggested that they find Krystal. Fox disagreed and they made their way to Aquas. At Aquas, Falco and the team met Slippy's fiance, [[Amanda]], and fought Slippy himself, hypnotized by [[Octoman]]. Octoman was quickly defeated and Fox finally gave in to Falco's advice to find Krystal.

==== Hold Firm, Katina ====
Falco quickly met up with Fox and Slippy in the space around the Beltino Orbital Gate. They defeated the Anglar in the area and learned from Beltino Toad about a device made to neutralize the Venom Sea's acidity. Falco revealed that Krystal was on Katina and the team made their way to the planet.
''This story is seen if ROB 64 decides to follow Falco and Slippy on Katina, rather than Fox after leaving Aquas or the Asteroid Belt.''

Falco and Slippy seperated from Fox on Katina. There, they met up with an old ally, Bill Grey, and helped him fight off the Anglar in the area. Bill revealed that Krystal had become an icy killer. Falco insulted Fox for his stupidity when he heard this. Falco followed Fox when he issued the order to go to [[Titania]]. When they got there, Krystal quickly snapped at Slippy showing her colder self. Falco defended him for once and told her to calm down. Krystal then revealed important information about Andross's past and the team fought one of his old bioweapons to claim a device that would neutralize the acidity of the Venom Sea. The team quickly got to Venom and used the device to enter the Venom Sea. There, they stormed the Anglar's base and defeated the emperor for good. Together, Falco and Slippy helped Krystal forgive Fox and the team made their way to Aquas to meet Amanda.

Falco was there when Peppy arrived to reveal important information about Titania and Andross. The team retrieved a device made to rid the acidity of the Venom Sea and piloted towards Venom. Falco was the most surprised when Fox revealed his plans to dissolve the team, but understood the reason. The team worked together and was finally able to defeat the Anglar Emperor. After the disbanding of the Star Fox team, Falco disappeared for a long time. He eventually reappeared when [[Marcus McCloud]] approached him to join his own Star Fox team. Falco decided to join, taking up the same role that Peppy did when Fox reformed the team.

After meeting up with ROB on Katina, Falco assisted Cornerian pilot [[Bill Grey]] in clearing the area of Anglarian forces. The two easily finished off any Anglar and soon split up. Upon returning, Falco basked in his victory as ROB tried to explain that Krystal was a member of Star Wolf. ROB showed Falco a Star Wolf conversation he had interceptted that showed a new, colder Krystal. Falco wondered whether it really was Krystal<ref>{{quote

Falco returned to the Great Fox, mistaking Wolf for Fox. Falco quickly got angry at the idea of Fox hiring Wolf. He revealed vital information about an enormous satellite being built on Solar. He reluctantly agreed to Wolf's plan to destroy the satellite and helped the two enact the plan. He then went with Fox to Titania per request of Peppy.

Falco was glad to see Wolf leave and taunted him running. He was surprised to see that their contact, a Cornerian pilot named Dash Bowman, was so young. He helped Dash retrieve a special device that purified the Venom Sea. When Dash revealed himself to be Andross's grandson, Falco wanted to rid themselves of Dash, but Fox listened to Dash and the three headed towards Venom. After defeating the Anglar Emperor, Falco began to feel attached to Dash, even telling Dash that he had nothing to do with the death of James McCloud. He then left Dash on Venom at his request and left to return to Corneria.

Falco followed Fox and Wolf to Titania on advice sent by Slippy. There, the three
defeated Andross's bioweapon and claimed a device that would neutralize the acidity of the Venom Sea. Wolf took the device and Falco argued with himself for trusting Wolf. ROB then suggested the two follow Wolf to [[Sector Y]].

In Sector Y, Falco and Fox ran into the remains of Pigma Dengar. Falco criticized himself again for falling into the trap, but was able to defeat Pigma with Fox's help. The two listened to Wolf's announcement of victory over the Anglar. Falco was extremely angry with Wolf's team for taking the glory and agreed with Fox about leaving Lylat to go to the planet [[Papetoon]] in hopes of escaping the past. Fox stayed in a deep depression shortly after this time, but Falco suggested that the two join the G-Zero racing organization. Here, the two left behind their days of Star Fox and became racing legends.

Deciding to leave Fox behind to find Krystal, Falco headed to [[Sector X]] to intercept Star Wolf. Unfortunately, Star Wolf had already cleared the area. Falco instead came up against the Pigma Robot, a robot that contained the remnants of the mind of Pigma Dengar. Falco was once again assisted by Katt and, together, they destroyed Pigma. When Falco returned to the Great Fox, he recieved a message from Fox saying that they defeated the Anglar. Fox and Krystal had made up and Slippy was getting married. Falco, unable to face his friends after such a disgrace, decided not to go to Aquas and meet his friends. Falco wallowed in selfpity for some time before Katt Monroe gave him the advice to start a new team. Falco teamed up with Katt and the Cornerian pilot, Dash Bowman, to form a new team known as Star Falco.

=== Smash Bros. Tournaments ===
Falco has appeared as an unlockable character in both ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He is even faster than Fox and has the best standard jump in both games.
==== Super Smash Bros. Melee ====
[[File:FalcoMelee.png|right|thumb|100px|Falco's concept art for ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.]]Falco made his ''Smash Bros.'' premiere in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', the second game of the series. Here, he was shown to be even faster than Fox and had an even better jump. His appearance is based off of concept art from the original ''Star Fox'' game. While Fox's Blaster was demoted in strength, Falco's Blaster could stun its target, but could not be used rapidly, just like Fox's Blaster in [[Super Smash Bros.(game)|the original game]]. The Falco Phantasm attack is similar to the Fox Illusion, but is faster and covered less distance. Falco's Fire Bird attack is his recovery move. It is more powerful than Fox's, but does not have as much reach. Falco also uses a Reflector that can be used to reflect enemy attacks. It works just like Fox's Reflector. In ''Melee'', Falco is unlocked by clearing the 100 Man Melee and defeating him in battle.
==== Super Smash Bros. Brawl ====
[[File:FalcoBrawl.png|left|thumb|100px|Falco's concept art from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''.]]Falco returned in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', once more as an unlockable character. Falco is unlocked in the same manner as he was in the previous game, which was clearing the 100 Man Brawl. Falco's appearance in this game is similar to Fox's in that his character build is based off his appearance in ''Star Fox Command'' with a more realistic appearance. Many of his moves are unchanged, though his blaster does travel a longer distance. Falco's Final Smash is the Landmaster, just like Fox and Wolf. Falco's Landmaster is the weakest of the three, but it is also the one that can fly for the longest amount of time and is more manueverable than the other two.
==== The Subspace Emissary ====
[[File:SubspaceFalco.png|right|thumb|Falco's introduction into ''The Subspace Emissary''.]]Mirroring his tendency to appear late in the ''Star Fox'' games, Falco appeared at the last second to save Fox and [[dkwiki:Diddy Kong|Diddy Kong]] from [[mariowiki:Bowser|Bowser]] and his Dark Cannon. Falco then helped the two fight a giant False Diddy Kong created by Bowser before Falco appeared. The three defeated the replica and, unwilling to help Diddy, was dragged away by him similar to Fox earlier on. Falco and Fox then led Diddy to their ship the Great Fox. While Fox went to deal with the [[wikirby:Halberd|Battleship Halberd]], Falco flew Diddy to the Smash Skiff, where [[dkwiki:Donkey Kong|Donkey Kong's]] trophy was. As Diddy left, Falco gave him the thumbs up sign.
[[File:FalcoThumbsUp.jpg|left|thumb|Falco gives Diddy Kong a sign of approval.]]Falco later appeared to aid Fox, [[mariowiki:Peach|Princess Peach]], [[zeldawiki:Zelda|Princess Zelda]], [[bulbapedia:Lucario|Lucario]], and [[smashwiki:Snake|Solid Snake]] in the fight against Duon, a creature created by Shadow Bugs and the trophy of [[mariowiki:Mr. Game & Watch|Mr. Game & Watch]]. After Duon's defeat, [[wikirby:Meta Knight|Meta Knight]] piloted the Halberd towards a coastal region where other heroes were located. The heroes then fought a Subspace Gunship, piloted by Bowser and [[zeldawiki:Ganondorf|Ganondorf]], and defeated it. Falco was among the heroes that entered Subspace and was defeated by Tabuu's Off Waves. Fortunately, his trophy was found by [[wikirby:King Dedede|King Dedede]], [[mariowiki:Luigi|Luigi]], and [[wikibound:Ness|Ness]] and he was revived. After Tabuu's defeat, Falco was one of the heroes to watch the Smashworld's restoration.
