I'm not just hotter than you, I also just kicked your ass!
Poison Roxy was an enemy in the classic Capcom beat-em'-up Final Fight and would later appear in the Street Fighter series as Hugo Andore's manager and then as a playable character an alternate character colour for Poison, and was a wrestler in WVGCW. She and Poison made up the Tag Team Mad Gear until Roxy was thrown through a portal by Kitana. Her current whereabouts are unknown.
In Final Fight[]
Poison Roxy is a member of the Mad Gear Gang from Final Fight, and openly a Male-to-Female transwoman (pre-op in Japan, post-op in the United States). Yes, she is transgender. Not a cis-gendered female, not a hermaphrodite. Deal with it. In later years, she's become the manager of sorts to Hugo the wrestler during the events of Street Fighter 3 and is a playable fighter in Street Fighter x Tekken as well as the upcoming Ultimate Street Fighter 4.
In truth, Roxy was intentionally designed to be nothing more than a Pallette Swap for Poison, but according to Capcom Classics Collection, Roxy grew up in the same Los Angeles orphanage as Poison, even coincidentally dressing almost identical to each other, a reference to the fact she was intended originally as a Pallette Swap.
In VGCW[]
On January 11th, Roxy joined her old friend Poison to take the Co-Op Division by storm. Named after the gang they used to run in, Mad Gear made their mark by taking on Steak Arcana, they were able to swiftly take down Elizabeth, before running into a snag with Chie Satonaka showing a tremendous amount of heart. However, they eventually got the win after landing enough blows.
However, she wasn't done with Mad Gear yet, as six days later she confronted Poison over the match...at least that's what she thought, as she ran into Roxy instead and, mistaking the two, challenged her to a match, which she accepted...right as the real Poison appeared and clariified the mistake to Chie. But after some convincing, Poison let Roxy go ahead with the match. Accompanied by Poison, Roxy took on the Carnivore Who Discarded Womanhood in a 20-Minute Iron Woman match. After being saved multiple times from being pinned by Poison, the Referee eventually ejected her from the match, leaving Roxy to fend for herself. Despite landing multiple blows on Chie, she, again, wouldn't go down for the count, and after taking multiple Galactic Punts to the face, she found herself 3-0 down with little time remaining. Roxy then began to fight back, taking the score to 3-2 before taking yet another Galactic Punt and going down to lose the match 4-2.
