Character Sheet: Peppy Hare

PEPPY HARE


As stated before, I'm going back to the old Character Sheet format for the main series runs instead of the basic roster from before. The biggest reason for this is purely so I can give myself time to actually work through any given series' content. While that's not so much a concern with this series, I will need it come Pokemon time, so, yeah. Here's everyone who made it for Star Fox:

1. Fox McCloud

1e. James McCloud

2. Falco Lombardi

3. Krystal

4. Slippy Toad

5. Peppy Hare

6. Arwing

6e. Wolfen

7. Landmaster

8. ROB 64

9. Prince Tricky

10. Andross

10e. Andrew Oikonny

11. Wolf O'Donnell

12. Leon Powalski

13. Panther Caroso

14. Pigma Dengar

15. General Scales

16. Aparoid Queen

17. Anglar Emperor

18. SharpClaw

19. Aparoid

20. Monarch Dodora

Next up is Peppy, the older mentor character of the team who once flew with Fox's father and now feels the need to remind him of that fact after every single battle ever. They really like recycling a certain sound byte, that's for sure. Anyway, Peppy is a bit like Slippy in that they're both a little less physically able than their teammates Fox and Falco, and so end up falling by the wayside in things like Smash representation. This tells me that Slippy should be the template I build off of for Peppy instead of the other two.

Here's the moveset I came up with:


Standard B: Charge Shot

I think it would make sense if he could save the charge for a bit after charging it to use at a more opportune time.


Side B: Barrel Roll

Considering his love for recommending the, ahem, aileron roll, it makes sense for him to use it here in place of his teammates' dashes.


Up B: Bunny Hop

Same as with Slippy, though I expect he can't quite get as much height on the jump as Slippy can.


Down B: Reflector

I'd say a more standard use of it, like Fox's, would make sense here. Of course, the Power Bombs are an option too.


Final Smash: Team Star Fox OR Heroic Sacrifice

Same as his teammates, or with James and Pigma. An alternate option could be his use of the Great Fox to jam the Aparoid shields in Assault.


Entrance: Dropping out of his Arwing.


Taunts: Up, he will stretch and say he's feeling a little old for this. Side, "You're getting more and more like your father every day." Down, "Do a barrel roll!"


Kirby Hat: His ears and mustache.


Kart: An Arwing.

Special Move: He can perform a barrel roll to avoid an attack.


Spirit Battle: On Venom, with James and Pigma.


Victory Screen: "Well done. Your father would be proud."

Losing Screen: His Arwing crashing down as he cries out for help.


Color Swaps: His 64 look, SNES look, Adventures look, Assault look, Command look, his comics version, one based on Lucy, one based on James.


Thanks for reading! Next up, the Arwing flies into battle!
