Falco Lombardi is an fictional anthropomorphic bird video game character who acts as Fox McCloud's right-hand man in Nintendo's Star Fox series. His past is mysterious, always avoiding conversations of what he did before joining the team. It is known, however, that he is a former member of a gang of Space Hot-Rodders. Falco is seen as the finest pilot of the Star Fox team, possessing a high skill level when at the cockpit of an Arwing.

Super Smash Bros. Melee trivia

Falco is one of the hidden characters in Super Smash Bros. Melee. To unlock Falco, the player must beat the 100-Man-Melee in Multi-Man Melee mode, or play 300 matches of Versus Mode. What Fox has in Speed, Falco makes up with his own distinct moves. Falco's blaster has a slower ROF (Rate of Fire) than Fox's blaster. However, Falco's blaster stuns his opponents while Fox's blaster does not. He also jumps higher than Fox can, but falls back toward the ground more quickly than Fox.
