− | His primary function | + | His primary function is to pilot the Great Fox while the Star Fox team are engaged in [[Arwing]] battles or land missions. Additionally, he is typically used to handle deployment of resources to the team, such as energy cells, bombs, and other supplies. During the first mission against [[Andross]] in ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', ROB served primarily in this role, straying very little from that role. |
− | In the eight years after, ROB had fallen into disrepair due to lack of funds for him and the Great Fox. Because of this, ROB inadvertently spread the fuel cells for the Arwings all over [[Sauria]] in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', forcing Fox to have to gather them up to travel to different parts of the planet. | + | In the eight years after, ROB had fallen into disrepair due to lack of funds for him and the Great Fox. Because of this, ROB inadvertently spread the fuel cells for the Arwings all over [[Sauria]] in ''[[Star Fox Adventures]]'', forcing Fox to have to gather them up to travel to different parts of the planet. However, with the funds from saving Sauria, ROB was rebuilt and improved for the mission against the [[Aparoid]]s the following year in ''[[Star Fox Assault]]''. At that point, Peppy remained on the Great Fox, assisting ROB in aiding the Star Fox team. In the final battle, the Great Fox was crashed into the shield protecting the [[Aparoid Queen]]. However, ROB and Peppy were able to use an escape pod and were able to leave before the Aparoid homeworld exploded. |
− | By the beginning of ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', ROB64 and Fox were the only remaining members of the Star Fox team. In the game | + | By the beginning of ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', ROB64 and Fox were the only remaining members of the Star Fox team. In the game ROB constantly provided advice. Once again operating from the Great Fox, ROB would also fire missiles from the ship at nearby enemies. In one ending path ROB's lack of confidence in Slippy's abilities annoyed the toad to the point where he threatened to shut him off. Later on Amanda actually did the job. |

It is highly unlikely that Krystal took the ship and ROB with her when she left. |
+ | *ROB64 appears as a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]''. In the Wii U game, ROB64 can chime in during special conversations on the Orbital Gate level to warn of incoming [[Aparoid]] missiles. | ||
