History

Super Smash Bros. series

Jet makes his debut in a Super Mario-related game in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. However, this appearance is not personal, and instead only Jet's inanimate model can be seen as a trophy; likewise, an artwork of him is printed on a sticker.

Jet makes another appearance as a trophy in both versions of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U.

Jet appears as an advanced spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Mario & Sonic series

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Jet was originally supposed to appear at least in the Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, but he does not appear in the final version of the game at all. An unused file of Jet's model remains in the game and can be played through hacking.

Jet appears in the Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games as one of the various characters that players can speak to in the London Party mode and a rival in the Dream Discus event. If the player defeats him, they will be rewarded with a sticker. A Mii outfit based on Jet also appears in the game.

In the Nintendo 3DS version, Jet appears as a rival in the Story Mode. He first appears riding past on his hover board, and is later caught by Yoshi, Sonic, Tails, Shadow and Silver, who ask him about the Phantasmal Fog, causing him to decide to try to find the fog machine himself. After being defeated by Shadow in 3000m Steeplechase, Jet agrees to help the group, and finds the machine but fails to destroy it. After Bowser Jr. is defeated, Jet suggests that the group splits up to investigate some of the other fog around London, pointing Sonic and Tails towards the British Museum. Jet later appears when Mario, Luigi, Sonic and Tails face Bowser and Dr. Eggman to encourage the Heroes and challenge Sonic at the games, as well as appearing at the opening ceremony. A badge of Jet can also be obtained from the badge machine.

Jet the Hawk, a.k.a. the Legendary Wind Master, has a lot of cool stuff going for him besides his name. He's amazing on his Extreme Gear, a flying skateboard. Unfortunately, he's no hero—he leads thieves called the Babylon Rogues, and he can't stand losing to Sonic in anything. Being known as the Legendary Wing Master is pretty cool on its own, but to earn that title by being the greatest at riding flying skateboards called Extreme Gear? That's awesome! He's the cocky leader of the Babylon Rogues, a group of thieves, and he can't stand losing to Sonic.
