Black Shadow is a cold-blooded king of evil feared by all. He is wanted by the Galactic Federation, yet he often shows up at the Extraterritorial F-Zero circuits as if they are his own. However, Captain Falcon has seen much success capturing his foot soldiers, and Black Shadow wants nothing more than to see the end of this meddling bounty hunter, preferably in front of millions of fans. It's inevitable that in any race he enters, there will be some kind of huge accident.
Personality
Black Shadow has been shown to be extremely evil, cold, and cruel. He does not take into consideration the effects his actions have on other people. When provoked, he doesn't hesitate to fight back and punish those who cross him. He only values people if they can serve a useful purpose, as he saves Miss Killer several times from certain death.
He deeply hates Captain Falcon, who has captured several of his minions and foiled several of his plans. Knowing that Falcon participates in the F-Zero Grand Prix, Black Shadow had his own machine built so he could enter and kill Falcon in front of millions of viewers. However, it is hinted that he also just simply loves destroying other machines at will.
He has also been portrayed as psychotic but extremely cunning.
Anime
Black Shadow in the Anime
Black Shadow is the leader of the evil organization known as Dark Million and is the primary antagonist in the anime. He's still just as ruthless as ever, and is accompanied by Zoda, Mrs. Killer, Baba, Octoman, Bio-Rex, and strangely enough, Deathborn is one of his subordinates as well. Black Shadow meets his end at the end of Episode 51, where Rick Wheeler has activated the Boost Fire going around the generator, causing it to explode. Black Shadow, infuriated, leaps out of his then exploding Black Bull and goes after Falcon one last time. Captain Falcon then tells Rick that he is to become the next Captain Falcon, then jumps out of the Blue Falcon and performs the iconic Falcon Punch on Black Shadow ending both Black Shadow and the current Captain Falcon's racing careers.
Trivia
- He looks similar to a bull hence his machine's name: Black Bull.
- Black Shadow's machine Black Bull was mistakenly named after his own name in the F-Zero GP Legend Instruction Booklet.
- His appearance resembles DC Comics' character Batman.
- Oddly enough, in the anime Deathborn is a follower of Black Shadow, while in the game F-Zero GX Black Shadow fears and obeys Deathborn as if he's his master.
