All of Captain Falcon's Moves are recycled from Dragon King
The source states, "Captain Falcon is kind of a weird character to include in the game, isn't he? He was the nominal star of the not terribly popular F-Zero series who had never been seen outside of his car until Smash Bros. Well, turns out Captain Falcon is basically the Dragon King leftovers fighter — he's about the same size and build as the generic characters from Dragon King, and all the unused moves from this early version of Smash Bros. were given to Captain Falcon. I mean, you couldn't give Mario the Falcon Punch, but nobody had ever seen Captain Falcon in action before! Who's to say he doesn't like screaming his own name while throwing fire punches?"(Birch).
