Wolf has gray and white fur that is clipped very close to his head in a buzz cut. Wolf's pointed gray ears rise above his head. His one visible eye is purple, and Wolf always seems to have an enraged look in that eye. This is intensified by his usually glaring white eyebrows. Wolf is also of tall height, being taller than [[Fox McCloud|Fox]], [[Falco]], [[Krystal]], and other characters. | Wolf has gray and white fur that is clipped very close to his head in a buzz cut.

Wolf has a short white beard on his chin and a rough gray tail which has a split at the tip. His body fur is gray and white. Wolf has a very muscular build and coupled with his size advantage over the other characters, it doesn't come as a surprise that he is the strongest of all the main characters in the series. Possibly one of the most recognizable features of Wolf is his mechanical eyepatch, which replaced the eyepatch he used in ''[[Star Fox 64]]''. He speaks with a voice reminiscent of a British aristocrat. | ||
In ''Star Fox: Assault'', he had gone through a complete revamp. He was dressed in leather clothing with spiked shoulder guards, had replaced his eyepatch with a mechanical one, and spoke in a gruffer voice, possibly with a slight accent of the southern states. The game also showed that Wolf wasn't a complete villain like [[Andross]] and that he actually respected Fox. ''Star Fox Command'' shows him looking virtually the same as his ''Star Fox: Assault'' appearance. His personality, though, was greatly changed. He was far less serious and shown to be far more sarcastic and impatient, similar to [[mariowiki:Wario|Wario]] of the Mario series.<ref>"I'm hot and cranky and your orders are annoying. ...But OK." — Wolf, ''Star Fox Command''</ref> | In ''Star Fox: Assault'', he had gone through a complete revamp.

Shortly before the Lylat Wars, Andross hired Wolf and his team to defeat the Star Fox team. Andross put his nephew, [[Andrew Oikonny]], on the team to monitor them. Wolf first attacked Star Fox with his team on [[Fichina]] while they attempted to diffuse a bomb in a Cornerian base. Wolf tailed Fox during the battle but was defeated quickly and escaped into space. Later, if Fox went to the [[Bolse Defense Satellite]], Wolf and his team attacked Fox again, though they met defeat again. | Shortly before the Lylat Wars, Andross hired Wolf and his team to defeat the Star Fox team.

[[File:Wolf Arrival Assault.png|right|thumb|Wolf returning to his base to find his rival Fox.]]Shortly after the fall of Andross, Wolf left the [[Venomian Army]] with his team. Andrew left the team due to having little interest in it. Wolf also decided to kick off Pigma for his greed and hired [[Panther Caroso]] to replace him. Wolf eventually became leader of a hideout of thugs that was partly made up of those that deserted the Venomian Army. Nine years after Venom's fall, Wolf once again met with his rival, Fox, at his base. Fox had come looking for Pigma and greatly damaged the base while Wolf and his team were gone. Wolf returned and challenged Fox, demanding revenge for his fallen base. Wolf put up a good fight, but was once again defeated by his rival. He called off the fight and told Fox that Pigma was no longer part of Star Wolf. Later, when the Star Fox team went to the Asteroid Belt to find Pigma, they found the broken remains of Star Wolf's ships. Though Krystal revealed that the team had escaped, it is unknown how. | [[File:Wolf Arrival Assault.png|right|thumb|Wolf returning to his base to find his rival Fox.]] | ||

Once again, Wolf was found by Fox on Fichina. He dueled Fox along with his teammates Panther and Leon, but was defeated. Wolf decided to accept Fox's offer to hire him to fight the Anglar. The two went to Solar to meet up with Falco. While waiting, Wolf revealed that Krystal had joined the team and was with Panther. He laughed when he realized how shaken Fox was and told Fox that he was going soft. When Falco arrived, he mistook Wolf for Fox and who promptly corrected him.

[[File:Wolf Fox Melee.png|left|thumb|Wolf's cameo apperance in ''Melee'' | Wolf first appeared in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series as a cameo in the introduction movie to ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He was also mentioned in several trophy descriptions. Wolf made his first playable appearance as an unlockable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. He is generally heavy character and uses moves similar to Fox, though less similar than Falco. | ||

Wolf's appearance in ''Brawl'' is loosely based on his appearance in ''Star Fox: Assault'', but his build generally custom, unlike Fox and Falco who are based on their appearances in ''Star Fox Command''. Wolf is usually unlocked last due to his small role in the ''Subspace Emissary'' and the high amount of versus mode fights necessary to unlock him. Two good points about him are wall-jumping, and the fact that he leans over while standing still, which gives him the smallest hitbox out of all the Star Fox characters. Unfortunatly, he is the slowest out of all Star Fox characters. He has a blaster as his standard special move that fires energy bursts. There is also a dagger on the end, which will damaged those close enough. His side special move is the Wolf Flash, which acts similarly to the Fox Illusion, but is on a diagonal path. Hitting an opponent at the last second of this move will cause them to rocket downwards. Wolf's recovery special is the Fire Wolf, which is the same as Fox's recovery but goes farther. Ironically, the move does not have the fire effect, despite the name. Wolf's down special is a reflector like Fox's and the but works like Marth's Counter attack as well. Wolf's Final Smash allows him to summon a [[Landmaster]] with Star Wolf colors. It is more powerful than Fox and Falco's but does not last as long. Wolf's on-screen appearance shows him ejecting from a Wolfen. | Wolf's appearance in ''Brawl'' is loosely based on his appearance in ''Star Fox: Assault'', but his build generally custom, unlike Fox and Falco who are based on their appearances in ''Star Fox Command''.

[[File: | [[File:Wolf SSE intro Brawl.png|left|thumb|150px|Wolf's intro scene in the ''Subspace Emissary'']] | ||
Wolf has no role in the Subspace Emissary and only appears in one cutscene. A secret door in The Ruins led to a duel with Wolf where he was shown appearing in a similar way to his on-screen appearance with the Star Wolf theme playing. Wolf then dueled the one invading his lair on the Lylat Cruise stage. Upon defeating him, Wolf was unlocked for standard use in all modes of the game. | |||

After being cut from ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]]'' (though he has a trophy in the Wii U version), Wolf returns as an unlockable playable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. Though his move properties have been adjusted, he acts much the same as he did in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', and he takes visual inspiration from ''Star Fox Zero''. However, he has a new Final Smash called [[Team Star Wolf]] that calls down his team for an air strike attack. He can be unlocked by being the 51st character encountered after versus matches, completing Classic Mode with Fox seven times, or by rescuing him in World of Light. | |||
In the game's [[smashwiki:World of Light|World of Light]] story campaign, Wolf is captured like the rest of the fighters, aside from [[wikirby:Kirby|Kirby]]. He is found in the Dark Realm's Mysterious Dimension on a wrecked airplane. | |||
