She doesn’t handle criticism at all when Fox calls her out for that false tale she retaliates by saying that he only said that because Andross killed his father, which is outright insensitive of her to make light of James’ death in front of him!. This is the same Andross we’re talking about, the one that attacked the Lylat System, the one who was responsible for James McCloud’s death, possibly the death of her own parents, and her planet, not to mention he had her stuck in a crystal to drain her energy and she outright opposed him after being released when she said that story, she was defending Andross! There’s an infamous moment where during a Titania mission, ‘The Worm’, where Krystal tells the tale of General Pepper and Andross’ conflict, she twists the facts and states that Andross was never evil and that it was wrong of Pepper to banish him to Venom. It doesn’t help that they clearly disapproved of Fox throwing her off the team. There are moments where she even snaps at Falco Lombardi and Slippy Toad, even though they didn’t do anything to warrant it. She constantly yells at Fox whenever they interact with each other and acts like it was the worst thing he ever did, even though it’s not that big of a deal and she never stops whining about it to the point where it becomes annoying. This isn’t the case between Fox and Krystal, whose breakup feels more forced than when they fell in love in Adventures, and it came out of something like a corny soap opera. Not even Mai from Avatar: The Last Airbender would cross this line with Zuko no matter how many times he broke her heart, and their breakup between them felt more natural and in character. That is just extremely out of proportion. Her reason for joining Star Wolf? All she wanted to do was elaborate a plan to get revenge on Fox by hurting him back by ruining his life and career in the worst way possibleː all just for dismissing her for her safety. There’s another problemː Krystal is established as telepathic, so she could have read Fox’s mind and found out about this and try to prevent this whole drama by consoling him. What’s really stupid about this is that Star Wolf has a long history of criminal activity and joining a shady organization can get her into serious trouble. While it was completely unnecessary for Fox to kick her off the team over his ‘fear for her safety on the battlefield’, Krystal’s reaction to this was handled badlyː instead of joining a militant group that has a clean record, she joins Star Wolf and begins a relationship with Panther, the person she usually politely turned down when flirted with. 
After their relationship had bloomed between her and Fox, the latter then becomes afraid of the possibility of her getting hurt during a battle and kicks her off what does Krystal do? She just leaves without even trying to make an effort to object.Her chemistry and relationship with Fox, which was sweet in her first two appearances as well as her friendships with her teammates, are heavily botched in multiple ways as described below.The only thing that is true about Krystal is that she is indeed too stubborn for her own good, and not in a good way. Her in-game description (in this game only) is inaccurate she is described as someone who is kind (which is true for her portrayal in Adventures and Assault respectively), but she’s portrayed the opposite for the most part.It tries too hard to give her flaws in order to flesh out more, but it was executed terribly by taking them up to eleven to where Krystal is hardly even recognized as a character.Flanderization: Rather than being the kind, brave, wise, and charming young lady she was in the previous games, Krystal was downgraded into a bland, mean-spirited, and woman scorned stereotype, who holds a grudge over the slightest things, which has made her unlikable.Any attempts to include the Adventures and Assault versions on this page will be reverted immediately. NOTE: This will only refer to Krystal’s attitude and behavior in Star Fox: Command as her portrayals in Star Fox Adventures and Star Fox: Assault are fine. Unfortunately for her, Krystal isn’t immune to flanderization, which she suffers with the rest of the main cast. She is among one of the more well-liked characters in the franchise. She is the team’s fourth pilot and the main telepath as well as Fox’s main love interest (while Panther seems to be also infatuated with her).
Krystal is a supporting character in the Star Fox series.
