Kalypso SSB trophy

Kalypso's trophy as seen in the game Super Smash Bros. Brawl for Wii.

Kalypso appears as a sticker and a trophy in the game Super Smash Bros. Brawl for Nintendo Wii. Both of them are unlockable, and designed after her appearance from the game Donkey Kong Barrel Blast.

  • Trophy descriptions:
    • North American version: "A cool beauty with chic makeup and groovy hair. Kalypso combines enough acceleration to break free from the pack with a respectable top speed. Her cornering is a bit weak, but good players should be able to overcome this. Her claw attack will get you...if her high-pitched laugh doesn't."
    • European version: "A cool beauty with chic make-up and groovy hair. A strong leader figure, she has the full trust of all the Kremling Krew. She boasts excellent reflexes, and is very accomplished in sports and dancing. The clubhouse she owns is regarded as something of an oasis for Kremlings."

Kalypso also appears as a spirit in the game Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for Nintendo Switch.
