At the [[Battle of Sargasso]], Slippy helped occupy the space station, and later helped with tracking down Pigma and retrieving the Core Memory. Slippy then helped at the Battle of Corneria, but was distraught at General Pepper's condition. He then assisted at the Beltino Orbital Gate, and in the invasion of the Aparoid Homeworld. The team was about to invade, but the Aparoids set up a last resort shield. Slippy then fought against the Queen, but warned Fox that if she escaped, she would be able to counter the self-destruct program she had been infected with. They eventually killed the [[Aparoid Queen]], also destroying any Aparoids she had controlled.

=== ''Star Fox Command'' ===
In ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', Slippy temporarily withdrew from the [[Star Fox]] team to spend more time with his newfound love, [[Amanda]]. However, the Cornerian forces got in a war with the [[Anglar Empire]], so Fox called Slippy to rejoin the team. Slippy happily decides to rejoin the team in his new [[Bullfrog]] aircraft. Based on the ending, Slippy he either rejoined the team and helped kill the Anglar Emperor, or settled down with Amanda and started a family.
After the [[Aparoid]] race was destroyed in ''[[Star Fox Assault]]'', Slippy temporarily withdrew from the [[Star Fox]] team to spend more time with his newfound love, [[Amanda]]. However, when Fox needs backup taking out the [[Anglar]] forces, Slippy is happy to come to his assistance again. He pilots a new starfighter, the [[Bullfrog]]. In one of the endings, Slippy has a large family with Amanda, and his eldest son becomes a member of the Star Fox team under the leadership of [[Marcus McCloud]]. In a future time period, Slippy tells his numerous grandchildren of the Star Fox team's legacy.
===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
Slippy has a minor role in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', where he assists Fox in the 23rd event match, Slippy's Invention. He created a cloaking device for Fox and Falco to use during that event. Although Slippy is the supposed inventor of the Cloaking Device, its game listings in Trophy mode don't show that it has any relation to the Star Fox series. Slippy can also appear if the character (as either Fox or Falco) does a secret taunt (done by alternatively tapping the left and right buttons on the control pad) on the [[Corneria]] or [[Venom]] stages.
Slippy also has a minor appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. He, along with [[Krystal]], [[Peppy]], [[Panther]], and [[Leon]], with [[Fox]], [[Falco]] and [[Wolf]], occasionally, will make a few comments in a secret taunt in the Lylat Cruise stage, as well as the past stage [[Corneria (stage)|Corneria]]. One of the messages reveals Slippy's relation to Leon. There are two stickers of Slippy, respectively based on his ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Assault'' artworks.
Additionally in the ''Metal Gear''-themed stage "Shadow Moses Island", whenever Snake tries to gather information on Falco, Slippy intercepts and tell Snake about Falco instead. In this conversation, it is revealed that Slippy designed the [[reflector]] and [[blaster]] weapons Fox and Falco use in the games.
Slippy appears as a trophy in ''Melee'', ''Brawl'', and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. He is a Spirit in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', which is based on his ''[[Star Fox Zero]]'' artwork.
== General information ==
=== Personality ===
Slippy Toad is the son of [[Beltino Toad]], the Research Director for the [[Cornerian Defense Force]]. Both Slippy and Beltino invented and constructed many inventions for the team, including the [[Blue Marine]]. In the gap between ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' and ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', both the Toads, Slippy and Beltino, briefly designed aircraft for Cornerian Defense Force. He is hinted as being less athletic than the rest of the team. Example are found in the ending of ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', when the team runs a long distance, where Slippy slowly falls behind, and in the introduction of the same game, Slippy is seen falling behind his wingmates. Also, in ''[[Star Fox Assault]]'', in the scene where everybody jumps into their ships for launching, Slippy ends up falling head first into his ship. Slippy played a major role in the [[Lylat Wars]] as a new and inexperienced [[Arwing]] pilot. During dogfights between [[Star Fox Team|Star Fox]] and [[Star Wolf]], Slippy shares a rivalry with [[Andrew Oikonny]]. His main role is providing information about the area, similar to [[Peppy Hare]], and analyzing the shield strength of bosses. Slippy's inexperience and lack of talent while flying get him into trouble more often than any other team member, for which [[Falco]] taunts him mercilessly.
=== Relationships ===
Slippy and [[Fox]] are childhood friends. The two seem to get along the most out of all other members of the [[Star Fox (team)|Star Fox]] team; Fox is always prepared to help Slippy in times of grave need, as seen in ''[[Star Fox 64]]'' when Slippy and his [[Arwing]] are knocked into [[Titania]]'s atmosphere by [[Spyborg]], in which Fox was willing to risk delay and dangerous outcome by traveling to the planet and saving Slippy using the [[Landmaster]]. In return, Slippy provides Fox (and usually other team members) with top-notch technology in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. series|Super Smash Bros.]]'' games, like the [[reflector]], and gives Fox valuable information in a manner similar to [[Peppy]]'s when giving advice.
[[Falco]] is also a good friend of Slippy's, but the two are known to have a small rivalry, as Falco oftentimes picks on Slippy. Falco has shown disapproval of the Slippy-designed Landmaster and the [[Blue Marine]] (as seen while Fox was going through [[Aquas]] in ''Star Fox 64''), despite using one with enhanced hovering capabilities in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] ''. Slippy mentions to Snake in ''Brawl'' that Falco likes to "show off" his on-hand equipment, like his special reflector, which is magnetic and is kicked for a boomerang effect. In ''Assault'', Slippy generally annoys Falco, and in ''Star Fox 64'', the two bicker a lot, though to a lesser extent in Assault.
In ''Brawl'' during one of the secret taunt conversations at the [[Lylat Cruise]] stage, Slippy tries to relate to [[Leon Powalski]] by pointing out that they are both members of the reptilian family. Leon, of course, disdainfully agrees, but is later annoyed to the point where he flies away.
In ''Command'', Slippy meets a toad named [[Amanda]], with whom he forms a relationship with and soon marries. In one of the endings, they have numerous children, and one of them (colored orange) joins the new Star Fox team led by [[Marcus McCloud]].
