The Star Fox Team is a legendary team of mercenaries which has repeatedly defended the Lylat System in times of peril. The team has evolved radically over the years, as well as the equipment they've used. Founded by James McCloud, the leadership passed through to his son, Fox, after his apparent death.
History
The Star Fox Team was founded by James McCloud and his best friend, Peppy Hare. Shortly into their new career, they were joined by a new member: Pigma Dengar. The team flew abound the Lylat, finding work wherever they were. They earned so much that James decided to upgrade the team's headquarters and purchased the building rights to a new mothership that would transport the trio about the System.
The Lylat Wars
Meanwhile, a scientist named Andross was banished to the far, desolate planet of Venom for performing dangerous experiments in Corneria.
Occurance at Venom
Strange occurances began to surface over from Venom. Wanting to know what was going on, General Pepper of the Cornerian Army hired the team to investigate. When they arrived at the planet, Pigma betrayed the team, blasting off his wingmates' wings and leaving them unable to manuever. He left them and turned them over to Andross, who had payed the pig a larger sum of money than he had ever before received. Peppy was able to escape, but his friend James was not. Peppy returned to Corneria and informed Pepper of the danger Andross possesed to the Lylat System. He also told James's son Fox of his father's fate. He took Fox under his wing and guided him in his quest to become a pilot.
The New Star Fox Team
Years later, Andross's forces began to gather strength, and war was imminent. Pepper decided to re-form the Star Fox team, and set up a high budget around it. With new weapons, an automated robot, and James's Great Fox finally complete, Pepper recreated the team, with the now 18-year-old Fox McCloud as the new leader. With his dear friend Peppy, Fox chose new members, including the skilled mechanic Slippy Toad and former gang member Falco Lombardi.
Starting at Corneria, the team fought through Andross's minons throughout the Lylat, making its way to Venom: Andross's base. Several times, they encountered the infamous Star Wolf and accumulated quite some time in dogfighting with them. Finally, the crew made it to Andross's base, where Fox single-handedly defeated the warlord.
The team returned to Corneria, where Pepper commended them and offered them positions in the Cornerian Army. Fox denied his offer, claiming they preferred working solo. They flew off, looking for jobs just as they had in the days of old, looking forward to a bright future.
Troubles in the Lylat
The team flew many missions freelance during the years following the Cornerian-Venomian conflict. However, all was not well as time passed: Falco left the team in search of a solo career out of sheer boredom. The Great Fox and the Arwings became very aged while ROB also suffered from lack of new parts and has trouble keeping himself together, and in dire need of repair. Peppy has retired from active flight duty but remains as mentor. Slippy has traded in his role as active pilot and and develops various weapons and gadgets for the Cornerian forces.
The Saurian Crisis
Eight years after the Lylat Wars, the team received a briefing from General Pepper of a crisis at Sauria: chunks of the planet had broken off and may pose a threat to the welfare of the Lylat System. Realizing their finances needed improvement, alongside their aged vehicles and weapons, the Fox, Slippy and Peppy took the job and travelled to Sauria, known as the Dinosaur Planet. However, only Fox made contact with the planet while Peppy stayed behind to work on his maps and Slippy continued work on developments and giving Fox vital advise. But by the end of the game Falco rejoins after saving Fox from being used as Andross's chew toy.
Aparoid Invasion
After the incident with Sauria StarFox returned to its prime state. The Great Fox, Arwings, Landmasters and ROB have all been completly repaired with sleeker designs and various other modifications. Krystal has also joined the team as its telepathic. The team helps with defeating the last of Andrew's forces, hunted down Pigma, saved Sauria from annihilation and destroyed the Aparoids.
The Anglar Blitz
Some time after the Aparoid invasion the StarFox once again went into decline as the whole team went their separate ways with only Fox and ROB staying on. Falco left to find the thrills which he had during the past events which mirrors what he did before the incident on Sauria. Slippy left because he fell in love. Peppy was apointed the new General of the Cornerian forces after Pepper became confined to his sickbed. Krystal disappears after being ashamed and heart-broken after Fox asked her to step down from the team. As for the Great Fox which was destroyed during the Aparoid invasion has been replaced by a new model which is considerably weaker.
During the Angular attack on the system the StarFox on most story paths rejoin and one includes Amanda joining but it is currently unknown which story ending is the true one.
The Future of the Team
After the events in Star Fox Command, Fox settled down with Krystal and had a son named Marcus McCloud, who, after mastering the Arwing, enrolled as a pilot, went into freelance work and started a new Star Fox team with one of Slippy's sons and Lucy's daughter.
