[[File:Reformed Team SF Command.png|left|thumb|The Star Fox team reformed with Amanda.]]Krystal still acted cold toward her old team members, despite rejoining the team. It was she that put them on the path to neutralizing the Venom Sea. Krystal pointed out that Andross had wanted to terraform Venom after his defeat during the Lylat Wars and that, before he died, he had placed a machine on Titania that would do just that. Krystal helped the team defeat the machine's guardian bioweapon. Slippy later confronted Krystal about how she had changed. He told her how he had left Amanda on Aquas even though he knew he should be with her and that Krystal should realize that she should be with Fox. This seemed to have gotten through to Krystal. Krystal worked with her former team members to destroy the Anglar Emperor. When Fox asked Krystal to rejoin the team, she outraged at him, asking why she should rejoin after he treated her such a way.

*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> | *Krystal was originally to have had a much larger role in ''Star Fox Adventures''.

*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. | *Early in the game, Krystal sees Andross and recognizes him right before being captured.
