Starfy (using his Japanese name “Stafy”) is featured as an Assist Trophy character. Unlike most other ones, Stafy is vulnerable to taking damage from opponents and being launched out of the stage. To compensate, Stafy can utilize a variety of moves, such as a spin attack. There is also a collectible Trophy of Stafy.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Super Smash Bros. for Wii U[]

Starfy returns as an Assist Trophy, acting the same as before. Both games also feature him in the form of a Trophy. He now uses his English name.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate[]

Starfy retains his role as an Assist Trophy. Graphical changes show that the inside of his mouth is a red color rather than yellow and his face changes into an agonized look when he is attacked. He also cameos as a Spirit along with other characters from his home series.

Trivia[]

  • During an interview with Nintendo, they were asked whether Starfy was a star or starfish. They explained that he is neither.
