Krystal has yet to appear as a playable fighter in a Smash Bros. game despite being among the most desired characters for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. She does appear on the [[Lylat Cruise]] stage when Fox, Falco, and Wolf activate their special taunt. Krystal also has a trophy based on her appearance in ''Star Fox: Assault'' as well as three stickers based on concept art of her from ''Star Fox Adventures'', ''Star Fox: Assault'', and ''Star Fox Command''.

[[File:Ice Blast Ultimate.jpg|thumb|Krystal's appearance in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', as an Assist Trophy]]
Krystal first appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', where she appears as a trophy (based on her ''Assault'' appearance), three stickers based on her artwork from ''Star Fox Adventures'', ''Star Fox: Assault'', and ''Star Fox Command''. In the [[Lylat Cruise]] stage, Krystal appears as part of a conversation if Fox, Falco, or Wolf activate their [[smashwiki:Star Fox Smash Taunt|smash taunt]]. Krystal was also considered for a playable character, but due to time constraints, Wolf was added instead, as his moves are more similar to Fox's.<ref>[http://www.sourcegaming.info/2015/08/17/sakuraibrawlquestions/ Sakurai answers some (old) questions– about Brawl! - Source Gaming]</ref>


Krystal appears as an Assist Trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.
Krystal returns as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'', but with a different description. In both ''Smash 4'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate|Ultimate]]'', Lylat Cruise returns as a stage, and Krystal's dialogue is retained during Fox, Falco, and Wolf's smash taunts.


====Trophy descriptions====
In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Krystal appears as an [[smashwiki:Assist Trophy|Assist Trophy]]. Upon being released, Krystal says "Try me." and attacks opponents with her staff. She also attacks by sending out [[Ice Blast]]s at the user's opponents. Krystal also appears as a [[smashwiki:Spirit|Spirit]] (number 387), whose appearance is taken from her ''Star Fox Adventures'' artwork.

*In ''[[Dinosaur Planet]]'', Krystal was originally meant to be a feline and was significantly younger.<ref>http://www.unseen64.net/2008/04/04/dinosaur_planet_n64/</ref>
*In ''[[Dinosaur Planet]]'', Krystal was originally younger.<ref>http://www.unseen64.net/2008/04/04/dinosaur_planet_n64/</ref>
*Krystal was originally to have had a much larger role in ''Star Fox Adventures''. Originally, Fox found the SpellStones specifically to save her, not the Krazoa Spirits, and he released her some time before the General Scales battle.<ref>http://www.unseen64.net/2009/07/17/starfox-adventures-gamecube-beta/</ref> Krystal and Fox would have worked together in the Krazoa Palace and fought Andross on foot. Many of Krystal's lines that were in the Saurian language in the final game were in English in the earlier build. Also in the original ending, Fox would have asked Krystal to join the team, she told him that she would join at the price of one kiss.<ref>"I'll only join... if you'll kiss me." — Krystal, ''Star Fox Adventures'' (unused quote)</ref> All of these changes were made because Rare was being bought by Microsoft shortly during the game's production.<ref>"We ran out of dev time due to the looming Microsoft buyout so we had to wrap up the game and just focus on one final boss." — Lee Schunemann</ref>

*Early in the game, Krystal sees Andross and recognizes him right before being captured. How she recognizes him is unknown and it is believed that an explanation would have been given in the original ending. The most popular belief is that Andross was in some way responsible for the destruction of Cerinia.
