Peppy Hare is a fictional anthropomorphic hare from the Star Fox series of video games. He is one of the original members of the Star Fox team and is the oldest and longest serving member. In Star Fox 64, he is color-coded in red, and frequently quotes Fox McCloud's father, saying: "Never give up. Trust your instincts." In Star Fox: Assault he has since retired from flying Arwings, but still gives advice to the team during missions.

History

In the time before the original Star Fox, James McCloud was captured by Andross, and Pigma Dengar betrayed the team. After the investigation, Peppy narrowly escaped Venom, and informed Fox McCloud about his father's fate. He decided to stay with the Star Fox team when Fox McCloud became the team's leader. In Star Fox Adventures, Peppy studied Fox's mission, the locations on Sauria (previously known as Dinosaur Planet), and the ancient records of the planet. He displays the descriptions of the locations and their maps. At the end of Star Fox Adventures, Peppy showed Fox a message from Krystal. Shortly thereafter, Krystal entered the Great Fox and reunited herself with Fox. After Star Fox Adventures, the Star Fox team repaired the Great Fox.

In Star Fox: Assault, Peppy has a near-death experience when he and ROB crash the Great Fox into a shield on the Aparoid Homeworld to allow Star Fox to enter the Aparoid Queen's lair. The Great Fox explodes, but both Peppy and ROB escape using an escape craft. When he reunites with Star Fox later, he says that he will really retire. It is unsure if he was serious. In Star Fox Command, according to a screenshot and information posted by Famitsu, Peppy Hare has become the newest General of the Cornerian army, possibly replacing General Pepper[1].

Peppy can be unlocked as a playable character in Assault's multiplayer.

Peppy makes a few cameos in Super Smash Bros. Melee. He appears in a number of cutscenes and the Star Fox Dialogue Easter Egg, and the player can win a Peppy Hare trophy.

Trivia

  • Peppy's rival in the Lylat Wars was Pigma Dengar due to the fact that he betrayed Peppy and Fox McClouds' father, James.
  • After the Lylat Wars, Peppy retired from flying but still gives the team many helpful tips and hints.
  • Due to the fact he mainly stays on the Great Fox Peppy has made a strong friendship with the robot ROB.
