'''Slippy Toad''' is one of the primary supporting characters of the ''[[Portal: Star Fox|Star Fox'' series]], who is known for being the character who most often has to be rescued from enemies. He acts as the chief mechanic for the Star Fox Team, and his technical skills make him an invaluable asset to the team despite not being the greatest pilot.

The son of [[Beltino Toad]], Slippy was enlisted in the Star Fox team after it had been reformed under [[Fox McCloud]]. Although Slippy was not quite as skilled a pilot as the others, his skill with inventing made up for that one disadvantage. He developed the [[Landmaster]] and co-created the [[Blue Marine]] with his father. As such, his skills in the Landmaster surpassed his teammates. However, while in the [[Arwing]] he typically needed constant cover from his wingmates as he was relatively unskilled as a pilot. Because of this, he was often criticized by [[Falco]]. His technical expertise also allowed him to identify the enemy's level health.

His technical expertise also allows him to identify the enemy's health.
  
During their first mission in ''[[Star Fox 64]]'', Slippy was able to provide the team with the Landmaster and Blue Marine that Fox used in several key missions. However, while flying against the Star Fox team, he met a temporary rival in the form of [[Andrew Oikonny]], a fellow greenhorn pilot who took to targeting Slippy. Together the team was able to pierce the defenses of [[Planet Venom]] and defeat [[Andross]].

In the eight years after, Slippy started working with Corneria's weapon R&D, despite remaining on the Great Fox working with [[ROB 64]]. When Fox finally received a mission on planet [[Sauria]] in ''[[Star Fox Adventure]]'', Slippy provided help only in the form of providing useful technological gadgets. A year later, Slippy returned to the Arwing to fly alongside the Star Fox team in ''[[Stat Fox Assault]]''. During this time he found out his father had become the weapons Research Director for [[Corneria]]. Together, the Star Fox team was able to stop the Aparoid invasion and save the Lylat system.

Two years before ''[[Star Fox Command]]'', Slippy met a girl named Amanda and the two fell in love. As Slippy began to spend more time with Amanda (and even proposed to her), he spent less time with the Star Fox squadron, which led to his silent withdrawal from the team. Slippy was presumably on Aquas when the Anglars attacked; Fox could either contact him immediately from Corneria, or rendezvous with Falco at the Asteroid Belt (since Amanda begged Fox not to ask Slippy to rejoin the team).

In [[Star Fox Command Endings#Fox and Krystal|Ending 1]] Fox, Slippy, and Falco then went to Katina to search for Krystal. While Fox went off on his own, Slippy and Falco met up with [[Bill Grey]], having some difficulty holding back the Anglar invasion. They helped him fight off the attack, then met up with Fox and Krystal at Titania, where they recovered a device that could neutralize the acid in the Venom Sea. They went to Venom and defeated the Emperor Anglar, then returned to Aquas to find Amanda, who decided to join the Star Fox squadron as well.

Slippy turned out the same in most of the endings, with the main exception being [[Star Fox Command Endings#Slippy's Resolve|Ending 7]], whwre he went to Aquas on his own to find Amanda. They intercepted a vital message from the Anglars and defeated Zako, but Slippy chose to remain on Aquas with Amanda rather than deliver the message (in other storylines, Peppy does receive information about the neutralizing device on Titania from Slippy). They were married that same day and had several children. Slippy was then shown several decades later, aged and regaling several children with tales of his time with Star Fox. He was also shown to wonder what his old friends were doing.

*Slippy has made recurring non-playable appearances in the ''[[Portal: Super Smash Bros.|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. In every game from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' onwards, it has been possible to trigger conversations among the Star Fox members by having one of the ''Star Fox'' characters perform a smash taunt in one of the levels from the series. He and other Star Fox members also made a small appearance in the Adventure Mode of ''Melee'', where they attacked in their Arwings as reinforcements for either Fox or Falco in the ''Star Fox'' stage. Slippy also made an appearance in Event 23 of Event Mode, known as "Slippy's Invention", where a permanent version of the cloaking device item was treated as his invention, and he spoke at the beginning of the event battle to ask how it was doing. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'', if [[Third Party Characters in Nintendo Games#Solid Snake|Solid Snake]] activates a codec conversation while battling Falco in the Shadow Moses Island level (reached in a similar manner as the special Star Fox conversations), Slippy will appear instead of one of Snake's allies to talk about Falco, having hacked Snake's channel.

* Slippy and other Star Fox members make small appearances in the Adventure Mode of Super Smash Bros. Melee as reinforcements arriving to aid Fox or Falco in their Arwings, and the Star Fox members also appear in special conversations that can be accessed by having one of the Star Fox characters due a special taunt on one of the Star Fox levels; he also appears as a trophy in the same game. According to this trophy, he and Fox went to school together.
**Slippy has also been represented by a trophy in ''Melee'', a trophy and two stickers (from ''Star Fox 64'' and ''Assault'') in ''Brawl'', a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]'' and a Novice-rank Support [[Spirit]] (which allows the player fighter to start battles in metal form) in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. When fought against in a Spirit battle, Slippy's Spirit possesses [[Greninja]] and tries to avoid combat while Fox tries to protect him. In Adventure Mode, his Spirit also allows the player to pilot a spaceship through the cosmic part of the map.
+
*In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Slippy once more appears during the Star Fox/Star Wolf conversations that can be accessed through special taunts on the Lylat Cruise level (and the original ''Melee'' conversations can be reached in the Corneria level). Additionally, if [[Third Party Characters in Nintendo Games#Solid Snake|Solid Snake]] activates a codec conversation while battling Falco in the Shadow Moses Island level (reached in a similar manner as the special Star Fox conversations), Slippy will appear instead of one of Snake's allies to talk about Falco, having hacked Snake's channel. Once more he also appears as a trophy in the game.
*In ''[[Super Mario Maker]]'', Slippy is among the costumes that Mario can transform into when using a [[Mystery Mushroom]]. His costume could be unlocked by completing a 100-Mario Challenge on Easy or harder.
 
*In the [[Nintendo Switch]] version of ''Starlink: Battle for Atlas'', Slippy appears with the rest of Star Fox as part of Fox's playable guest appearance. His role is the same as in the normal ''Star Fox'' games.

* With Andrew Oikonny out of the Star Wolf team, Slippy has no apparent 'rival' like his teammates do.
* In ''Assault'' and ''Command'', Slippy is the one member of Star Fox without a rival in Star Wolf, due to Andrew Oikonny's absence.
 
*In the descriptions of his trophies from ''Melee'' and the 3DS/Wii U ''Smash'', it is said that he and Fox went to school together when they were young.
