| - == Slippy is one of those frogs that can change gender a la Jurassic Park. == I can't remember where I read this, but it explains the Viewer Gender Confusion well enough, as well as the change in voice between 64 and Assault. Slippy would normally be male, but the single-gender environment triggered a gender change. After Krystal joined the team, it was no longer a single-gender environment and Slippy reverted to being male.
* Hmm... unlikely, as his voice became male before Krystal joined (in Adventure). == Fox McCloud and Wolf O'Donnell are twin half-brothers from a failed menage a trois/date rape party. == They look too similar to be Identical Strangers, and their flying skill and choice in teammates seems to indicate some intimate connection to Fox's father, James. There's also the ambiguous reason for Wolf's hatred for Fox, which goes farther than It's Personal. As for the "twin half-brothers" part, it's possible (though highly unlikely) for one egg to be fertilized by two sperm from two different donors, which would account for the difference in species and coloring, while keeping the same exact look. Their difference in ages could be a case of one twin developing more slowly than the other, or an abortion gone wrong, or something.
* Or they're fraternal twins who both take after their mother.
* Or Wolf is James' younger brother (and Fox's uncle), which would explain the age difference and maybe even the rivalry with Fox (since James isn't around to pick on anymore).
* Not possible, as Wolf is only a year older than Fox, making him the same age as Falco.
* Or Wolf is James' illegitimate son and he resents Fox for having known their father. == Neither Wolf nor Leon are murderers and are actually loathe to hurt people, and thus their bounties are more for treason and other political war crimes. == Think about it: Leon constantly makes subtle threats to torture the Star Fox team if he captures them, yet his bounty is relatively low, not possible if he really was a bloodthirsty torturer. Also, Wolf specifically kicks Pigma out of the gang after Pigma's greed and unscrupulousness gets the better of him; only someone who distastes violence and cruelty would do that. Finally, after they get Panther on their team, we hardly hear of their freelance exploits, so they must not be that eager to flex their merc muscles again. Their vicious blood feud against Fox and Falco, respectively, might be the exception, but then again, those are almost assuredly personal matters.
* Wolf's firing of Pigma may have had more to do with his greed getting in the way of his duty to the team. He seems like an efficient guy. (There might also have been a personality clash involved - Pigma doesn't look like he'd mesh well with the Affably Evil type.) Apart from that, while they may not be bloodthirsty psychopaths, there isn't much to suggest that any of team Star Wolf is actually opposed to hurting people, so long as there's a profit to be had.
* It was stated in Star Fox Assault that Pigma was kicked out because of his overwhelming greed ind distrustful nature, so obviously there's something beyond merely his lust for money and about his actual motives that got the rest of the team on edge around him. There's also Leon's (unofficial?) comments during Super Smash Bros Brawl, where he gushes over the beauties of a peaceful green planet being passed by, and how he'd love to settle down and have a family or whatnot. Then again, he did also state his desire for a The Masochism Tango-style relationship with Wolf, so maybe they're more tolerant of vicious bloodsports in the bed?
* Or you know, Wolf is just an idiot and Leon is the actual smart one, and Leon knew about Pigma's motivations and convinced Wolf to get rid of him. After all, not every leader is able to see what's really going on.
