'''Black Shadow''' is a pilot in the [[Portal: F-Zero|''F-Zero'' series]] and the cold-blooded king of evil.

=Background=

The so-called "King of Evil", Black Shadow is a mysterious being greatly feared by all. There are many who would like to see Black Shadow dead, but those who have tried have ended up being the ones killed. In fact, some believe that Black Shadow may be immortal already and uses black magic to reincarnate himself. However, his operations have been thwarted by [[Captain Falcon]], who has had much success in capturing his minions. One such minion was Jay Gonso Snaky, a voodoo chieftain that some believe was the one who provided Black Shadow with immortality.

Black Shadow has sword revenge on Captain Falcon for his meddling. During the horrific grand finale four years ago, Black Shadow retrieved some of Captain Falcon's blood and used it to create [[Blood Falcon]], a perfect clone loyal only to Black Shadow. Both are dedicated to defeating or destroying Captain Falcon on the GP circuit. 

==GX Story Mode==

In the story mode of ''[[F-Zero GX]]'', Black Shadow is first seen losing a race and confronting his master, [[Deathborn]]. The cyborg master is not pleased with Blacks Shadow's failures, but gives him another chance to win the Grand Prix. Throughout the story, Black Shadow is at the heart of a plot to get rid of all the pilots who stand a chance of beating him in the Grand Prix. 

He tried to kill [[Jody Summer]], but his plans were thwarted by Captain Falcon. However he confronted Captain Falcon and used his magic to bind the bounty hunter. He then summoned Blood Falcon, who planted a bomb on the Captain's ship and the two departed. Captain Falcon was able to get away though, forcing Black Shadow to face him in the Grand Prix. When he lost though, Deathborn arrived and banished Black Shadow for his failure.

*Number: 30
*Creator: BS Group Secret Laboratories
*Engine: CL05-S16x3
*Weight: 2340 kg
*Body: A
*Boost: E
*Grip: A

The Black Bull was designed by Black Shadow's own secret organization, the BS Group. The ship is built to be extremely sturdy and can withstand a lot of abuse, but is lacking in terms of overall speed. The characteristics of the machine make it ideal for adept pilots who can negotiate turns at high speeds and and knock out the competition. These same attributes however also make the vehicle perfect for inexperienced pilots.

==Video Games==

*In the ''[[Portal" Super Smash Bros.|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series, has been represented by a trophy and sticker in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and as a Legend-rank Primary [[Spirit]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. His Spirit came with the added effect of boosting the player character's speed. When fought in a Spirit battle, Black Shadow's Spirit would possess a giant [[Ganondof]] and fight alongside Captain Falcon in a battle where the player periodically receives sudden damage.
