The fan favorite racecar driver of Smash Bros. returns with his signature flair and speed. Captain Falcon is one of the fastest characters in the game, and has a toolkit that makes him one of the stronger characters at aggressive play. Fast dashes, great throws, nice combos and a variety of devastating attacks make Captain Falcon an offensive threat. Captain Falcon is also one of the most stylish characters in the game, with an arsenal of risky and flashy moves that will rouse the crowd and intimidate foes if pulled off. Captain Falcon's focus on offense gives him a sizable flaw in his defense. Lacking a projectile, he is forced to play at close-range and sometimes has trouble against tight projectile zoning. Captain Falcon also has one of the weaker recoveries in the game. Nevertheless, he is an exceedingly fun character for any player that likes to win with style. | The fan favorite racecar driver of Smash Bros. returns with his signature flair and speed.

|adesc=Captain Falcon punches two times. Hold or steadily hit the button to cause him to finish the combo with a strong punch. Mashing the button makes Captain Falcon enter a repeating series of jabs, finishing with one long-reaching jab forward. Captain Falcon's brief three hit combo is still a quick and reliable move, with the last hit knocking foes far away from Falcon and sometimes KOing. The repeated jab is somewhat unreliable, given that foes can commonly escape before the combo finishes. However, the finishing hit has deceptive range, and might catch foes offguard if they escaped the repeated jab or you miss entirely. | |adesc=Captain Falcon punches two times.
