It has at least a quarter of [[Corneria|Corneria's]] cities. It has some trees, but is mostly dry, cold and rocky. It has a spaceport to transport goods, and travelers.

Papetoon (パペトゥーン, Papetūn) is a planet at a distant corner of the Lylat System.

History

According to the Japanese manual for Star Fox 64, it was the home of Fox McCloud, and where Peppy Hare flew after Pigma Dengar's betrayal to tell him what happened to his father, James. It was not mentioned again until one of the endings for Star Fox Command. It may have been ignored by enemy forces either because it was too isolated, or it may be too small to bother invading.

It first appeared in early supplemental Star Fox materials such as the Star Fox comic and the Star Fox Mission File Printout, where it is depicted as a mostly dry and rocky frontier world. In this version, it was the "den" of a small group of bandits led by Fox that only stole from the Imperial Guard in the name of the oppressed. General Pepper approached the team since he recognized their invaluable skills and asked them to fly his experimental Arwings against Andross. Fox agreed due to the past with his father, and his rogues would become the esteemed Star Fox team.
