Un cabot urbain des rues de New York, Iggy est introduit lorsque le Groupe Joestar entre en Égypte et les aide à contrecœur lors de leur expédition au Caire pour vaincre DIO. Iggy est un manieur de Stand qui manie The Fool, un Stand de sable.
Iggy est un petit chien noir et blanc dont l'apparence originale est vaguement calquée sur celle d'un Boston Terrier. Ses pattes, son estomac, sa poitrine et son cou sont blancs, tout comme la zone autour de sa bouche et de son front. Ses yeux se gonflent légèrement et il a des bajoues lâches.
Pendant et après son combat avec Pet Shop, Iggy rétrécit considérablement, et son visage devient plus caricatural humain, avec un grand front, une petite bouche et des oreilles plus grandes. Ses yeux deviennent également beaucoup plus grands et plus expressifs.

Personnalité
Iggy est décrit comme un chien particulièrement antisocial avec un mauvais caractère.
Iggy est un chien particulièrement désagréable, indiscipliné et impoli. Par exemple, il aime mâcher les cheveux humains et péter sur les visages des humains qui l'importunent, contrariant Jean Pierre Polnareff de cette façon pendant son arc d'introduction.[1] Il joue également une sale farce à Jotaro pour se venger d'avoir été entrainé dans le combat contre N'Doul. Iggy est très fier, indépendant et irrévérencieux. Ainsi on le voit souvent s'éloigner du groupe et provoquer le désordre là où il va, principalement en volant des aliments aux gens.[2][3][4] De façon humoristique, Iggy sauve involontairement le groupe Joestar plusieurs fois de cette façon.
Au début, Iggy est naturellement apathique envers l'objectif du groupe Joestar d'arrêter DIO, n'ayant rien à voir avec le Vampire. De fait, Iggy essaie égoïstement de se protéger au détriment de ses compagnons humains contre N'Doul. A un moment donné il essaie même de sacrifier Jotaro pour sa sécurité.[5] Ce n'est qu'après son combat contre Pet Shop qu'Iggy développe une rancune contre DIO.[6]
Iggy apprécie son indépendance, et il a une haute opinion de lui-même, pensant que lui et son Stand sont aussi forts que Jotaro et son Star Platinum.[7]
Iggy a néanmoins un certain sens de la justice. Il est notamment prêt à se battre contre Pet Shop pour sauver un enfant aimant les chiens.[8]Il s'est également sacrifié de façon altruiste contre Vanilla Ice pour sauver Polnareff.[9]
Stand: The Fool est un Stand très polyvalent composé de sable, dont Iggy peut projeter avec une grande force ou utiliser pour construire des formes complexes et variables.
Odorat de chien: En tant que chien, Iggy a, bien sûr, un excellent odorat. Cela lui permet de détecter des gens de loin comme N'Doul[10] et même détecter des Stands à leur une odeur telle que Geb.[11] Son odorat est très utile pour renifler des ennemis avant qu'ils n'attaquent mais il a ses limites. Par exemple, Iggy ne peut pas sentir Cream venir car le Stand de vide peut s'entourer dans une sphère de vide.
Histoire
Passé
Iggy le roi des chiens errants de New York
Iggy a été à l'origine achetée par un homme riche quand il était chiot, étant un chien de race pure avec un certificat. En grandissant, il a commencé à croire que les humains étaient stupides et a décidé de quitter sa maison. Il a finalement été retrouvé par Muhammad Avdol dans les bidonvilles de New York en tant que roi des chiens errants.[7] Seul Abdul a pu s'approcher de lui car les services de contrôle des animaux étaient impuissants face à son Stand. Abdul l'a capturé et Iggy a été placé aux soins de la Fondation Speedwagon.
Iggy est amené en Egypte au milieu du désert à bord d'un hélicoptère de la Fondation Speedwagon pour aider dans la bataille contre DIO. Polnareff, intrigué par leur nouveau partenaire, ouvre la porte de la cabine et devient la cible de la colère d'Iggy. Il mort Polnareff et arrache ses cheveux et le pète dessus car il est de mauvais humeur après le vol et Polnareff a perturbé son sommeil. Les pilotes et Avdol ne peuvent le contrôler qu'à cause d'un traitement improbable: le chewing-gum au café.
En raison de la façon dont il a attaqué Polnareff, tout le monde, en particulier Jotaro, a des doutes quant à la pertinence de la compagnie d'Iggy. Iggy ne veut pas non plus participer à une bataille qui n'a rien à voir avec lui. Peut après quand le groupe est attaqué par Geb, Iggy le sent venir et quitte la voiture du groupe avant qu'elle ne s'enfonce dans des sables mouvants et laisse les héros se débrouiller. Pour celà, les héros remettent encore plus en doute son utilité tandis que N'Doul décide de laisser tranquille le chien.
Jotaro saisit Iggy dans sa main, forçant le chien à coopérer avant que le Geb de N'Doul ne les attaque tous les deux. Sans option, Iggy essaie de s'enfuir en créant un deltaplane avec The Fool mais Jotaro l'attrape encore et l'utilise pour planer vers l'ennemi. N'Doul comprend la ruse et commence à attaque Jotaro et Iggy; au milieu de leur poursuite, Iggy essaie de laisser Jotaro derrière pour être tué seul. Jotaro lance alors Iggy sur N'Doul, distrayant suffisamment l'ennemi et le menant à sa défaite finale. Jotaro pardonne finalement Iggy, disant que lui aussi n'aimerait pas être entraîné dans un combat qauquel il n'a rien à voir. Pour se venger, Iggy colle un chewing-gum dans le chapeau de Jotaro. Iggy décide alors d'accompagner le groupe et de gagner leur confiance, même si Polnareff croit toujours qu'il finira par s'enfuir.
(L'information écrit ci-dessous n'a pas été écrit par Araki et ne devrait pas être considéré comme canonique.) Présent dans le Chapitre 1: Voyage à sens unique du désert à l'enfer, Iggy joue un rôle important dans la bataille contre Absalom et Michal, trompant les deux avec son Stand. Il aveugle temporairement les ennemis en couvrant la vitre de Satanic Coupler avec du sable de The Fool. Plus tard, il trompe Absalom avec un clone de sable de Jotaro, permettant au vrai Jotaro de sauver le reste du groupe.
La remontée du Nil
Iggy ne fait pas grand-chose pendant leur voyage mais aide involontairement le groupe. Lorsqu'Oingo essaie de les empoisonner déguisé en barman, Iggy créé le désordre en volant un gateau et les héros doivent partir du bar. Plus tard, Oingo prévoit d'installer une bombe dans la voiture des héros qui doit tuer Jotaro, et essaie de se débarrasser de la bombe, c'est Iggy qui la ramène, ce qui poussera Polnareff à la jeter plus tard, faisant sans faire exprès que çà soit Oingo qui reçoive l'explosion en pleine face.
À Edfou, Iggy sauve accidentellement Jotaro de la dernière tentative d'assassinat de Anubis. Quand Anubis possède un jeune garçon, Iggy fait trébucher le garçon alors qu'il attrape une sucette, faisant tomber Anubis dans le Nil.
Au Caire, Iggy bat également Boingo sans même savoir qu'il était un manieur de Stand ennemi. Après que Hol Horse a été hospitalisé à cause d'un autre plan qui s'est retourné contre lui, Boingo donne un coup de pied dans une caisse et frappe accidentellement Iggy, ce qui rend le chien assez furieux pour attaquer Boingo.
Tandis que le Groupe Joestar cherche le manoir de DIO, Iggy erre dans les rues du Caire et tombe sur le bâtiment lui-même. Lorsque deux chiens viennent l'importuner, Iggy les intimide et les chiens décident d'aller chercher une proie plus faible. Repérant l'ombre d'un oiseau sous une porte, les chiens rampent à l'intérieur de la propriété, mais soudainement, Iggy voit leur tête voler, empalée sur une pointe de glace tandis que leurs corps sont traînés de force à l'intérieur. Un faucon apparaît alors, observant Iggy avec méfiance. Cependant, le faucon repère alors le mendiant qu'Abdul a payé pour rechercher le manoir et crée un glaçon assez grand pour écraser le mendiant. Alors que le faucon vole autour de la maison, Iggy se rend compte que c'est un manieur de Stand qui protège le manoir et qu'il pourrait venir pour lui ensuite. En effet, le faucon Pet Shop est le manieur du StandHorus.
Pet Shop concentre à nouveau son attention sur Iggy, qui essaie de faire comme si de rien n'était car il ne veut pas s'impliquer dans les conflits dont il ne se soucie pas. Cependant, un jeune garçon vient à la recherche de ses chiens. En voyant les colliers de ses chiens, le garçon essaie aussi de passer sous la porte du manoir et se fait attaquer par Pet Shop. Cependant, Iggy vient à la rescousse, n'ayant pas le cœur de laisser un gamin aimant les chiens être tué. Après avoir aidé l'enfant à s'échapper, Iggy affronte Pet Shop mais est pris par surprise lorsque Pet Shop gèle le sol et lui tire dessus avec des piques de glace. Iggy est obligé de fuir mais le faucon aux yeux d'aigle le repère facilement et le poursuit jusqu'à un égout. Cependant, lorsque Pet Shop tire sur Iggy, il s'avère qu'Iggy était un clone fait de sable. Iggy sort de l'ombre et The Fool griffe l'oiseau. Satisfait, Iggy essaie de prétendre que leur combat est un match nul, mais Pet Shop décide de déployer toute la force de son Horus, transformant tout l'égout en un monde glacé. Dans cet environnement humide, Iggy se retrouve dans une situation très désavantageuse. Lorsque la patte d'Iggy est gelée en place, le chien doit s'arracher la patte pour s'échapper dans le Nil.
Iggy vainc Pet Shop
Au fond du Nil, Iggy se réfugie sous un dôme protecteur de sable. Cependant, Pet Shop peut nager. Le faucon trouve le dôme et menace de tirer sur le chien avec des stalactites. The Fool parvient à dévier un stalactite vers Pet Shop, mais l'oiseau essaie alors d'écraser le dôme sous une masse de glace. Le chien creuse pour s'échapper mais il bute ensuite un autre tunnel où Pet Shop attend, chargeant un stalactite
pour le tuer à bout portant. Dans un acte désespéré, Iggy laisse le dôme derrière lui s'effondrer et fait monter la pression dans le tunnel. De cette façon, il mord le bec de Pet Shop et le stalactite fait exploser la tête de Pet Shop. Épuisé par le manque de sang et proche de la noyade, Iggy se remémore sa vie de roi des chiens errants à New York. Heureusement, il est finalement sauvé par le garçon qu'il a protégé plus tôt.
Iggy is subsequently found by a fully recovered Kakyoin, who reunites with the group after having a Speedwagon Foundation doctor treat Iggy's injuries. After a short but cheerful reunion, Iggy decides to lead them to DIO's Mansion, where Telence T. D'Arby welcomes them and abducts Jotaro, Joseph and Kakyoin.
After waiting for ten minutes, Avdol, Polnareff and Iggy decide to enter the mansion. Iggy and Avdol team up in the illusory maze created by Tenore Sax inside the mansion to track down and rapidly defeat Kenny G. However, the group is ambushed by Vanilla Ice, one of DIO's last servants. Avdol shoves his companions aside but is killed.
Iggy's death
Vanilla Ice has disintegrated Avdol, forcing him into Cream's mouth, and is now targeting Polnareff and Iggy. Cream becomes an invincible and invisible ball of destruction that's flying after them and they must flee. Iggy and Polnareff arrive at the art gallery but see the gaping hole on the floor, meaning Vanilla Ice is there. Although they cover each other's back, Polnareff is ambushed from below and Vanilla Ice takes his left foot. Iggy and Polnareff then devise a plan to trick Vanilla Ice. Iggy and Polnareff hide in the stairs and Iggy creates a "DIO" made of sand to fool Vanilla Ice. Unfortunately, Vanilla Ice sees through the trick as the real DIO wouldn't have come to a place where the sun's rays are still visible. Vanilla Ice singles out Iggy and proceeds to violently beat him up for making him strike at DIO's image. Polnareff continues the fight and manages to inflict a mortal wound, but it seems that Vanilla Ice refuses to die. Polnareff then brings Iggy close to him. Cream begins to make circles around Polnareff, aiming to eventually reach and disintegrate him. Polnareff puts Iggy in a safe spot but fails to escape. A dying Iggy summons The Fool to help Polnareff but the Frenchman tells him to stay safe instead. The Polnareff salutes the dog as Cream approaches, but Iggy spends the last of his strength to lift Polnareff with The Fool, allowing Polnareff to ambush Vanilla Ice. Iggy dies but Polnareff is able to expose Vanilla Ice to the sunlight and kill him, because he had become a Vampire.
The ghosts of Avdol and Iggy briefly appear, silently telling Polnareff to carry on before they ascend to Heaven.
Jotaro Kujo: Jotaro sees value in Iggy during the fight with N'Doul with his keen senses and powerful Stand. Iggy gives back Jotaro's lost hat, shortly earning his trust until Jotaro realized that Iggy put coffee gum inside it. Iggy, although not vocal about it, is a very prideful stand user, even believing that The Fool is stronger than Star Platinum. After the battle with DIO, Jotaro and Joseph acknowledge his death, alongside the other fallen crusaders.
Joseph Joestar: When first introduced, Iggy acted much like a stray and initially hated everyone in the group. After the fight with N'Doul, he would willingly tag along with them, but during fights, he'd usually disappear. It wasn't until his fight with Pet Shop where his inner thoughts came to light; at this point, he seemed to understand Joseph was the leader of the group. While the interaction between the two was fairly minor, after sacrificing himself for Polnareff to defeat Vanilla Ice, Joseph and the group acknowledged his heroism and mourned his death along with the others.
Jean Pierre Polnareff: The two initially did not get along since Polnareff woke him up after a bumpy flight. Polnareff disliked Iggy's cocky and demeaning attitude and antagonized him frequently, causing Polnareff to be Iggy's most common target when it came to getting bitten and farted on. Despite this, during their fight against Cream, Iggy sacrificed himself to save Polnareff. Polnareff deeply mourned his sacrifice, admitting he initially thought Iggy was a stubborn shitty mutt but grew to love how stubborn he was and how he didn't get close to humans because it showed how proud he was, and it was this determination that allowed him to beat Cream.
Muhammad Avdol: Avdol first encountered Iggy when he was causing trouble in New York and captured him. Avdol would later recruit Iggy into the Joestar Group and used coffee gum to calm him down. After Avdol sacrificed himself in the battle against Vanilla Ice, Iggy became determined to avenge him. In the end, Iggy failed to avenge Avdol but inspired Polnareff to do so instead.
Enemies
Pet Shop: Upon encountering Pet Shop, Iggy saw him devour 2 dogs and attempted to avoid fighting him, but after Pet Shop attacked a dog-loving boy, Iggy went to defend him. During their fight, Iggy lost his left paw and Iggy would take revenge by forcing Pet Shop's beak closed while he was attacking and blew him up. It was Pet Shop's actions that made Iggy want to kill DIO in the first place.
Vanilla Ice: Originally Iggy just saw Ice as an obstacle in his vengeance towards DIO, after Ice killed Avdol, Iggy became determined to kill him. In the end, Iggy failed to kill him but inspired Polnareff to do so instead.
DIO: Iggy was dragged against his will into joining the Joestar Group in Egypt, and as such didn't care about DIO or what was happening, being more concerned about himself. After his fight with Pet Shop though, he decided to help the group defeat DIO, as it was because of him that Iggy was brought to Egypt and put through so much trouble in the first place. In the end, DIO and Iggy never personally encounter one another, as Iggy dies protecting Polnareff during his fight with Vanilla Ice.
Relationships in Eyes of Heaven
(The information below derives from a Video Game not written by Araki. As such, it may not be considered canon.)
Joseph Joestar: While their relationship is essentially the same as in the manga, Young Joseph will complain about having to team up with Iggy and state that he has evil eyes, but later states he is not bad for a mutt. Iggy will also complain about teaming up with Young Joseph and notes that his scent is similar to the Joseph he knows and wonders why.
Jotaro Kujo: When encountering Jotaro from Diamond is Unbreakable, Iggy will not recognize him at first and is surprised he knows his favorite snack. When he does recognize Jotaro, Iggy attempts to put another piece of gum in his hat and wonders why he has gotten older.
Noriaki Kakyoin: Iggy is very disobedient towards Kakyoin and wants to put gum in his hair.
DIO: Upon encountering DIO, Iggy immediately hates him. Upon defeating him, he will announce he is the true emperor.
Iggy appears as one of the 6 main characters the player can use. Instead of having him shipped by helicopter to the group, the cast finds him about an Egyptian temple, ultimately fighting him before assimilating him into the group. Most of Iggy's attacks make use of his Stand, The Fool. The main difference from the original series is that Iggy survives the battle against Vanilla Ice and fights along with the others against DIO.
Iggy appears as one of the most unusual playable characters in the roster. Without his Stand active, many attacks are ineffective against him due to his small hitbox. However, this is almost never a surefire defense mechanism and players are usually forced to take to the offensive using charge attacks.
Most of Iggy's attacks consist of him jumping, barking and biting when without the Stand. When holding down and pressing the strong punch, Iggy will make a replica of Shadow Dio that attacks the opponent with a punch. When The Fool is activated, Iggy's attacks change to strong versions of punches and dash attacks done by The Fool. His Sand Magic attack and floating ability are also useful for getting Iggy out of tight spots (similar to what he did to escape N'Doul's Geb).
His first special move creates a giant wave of sand sent towards the opponent's direction, while his second special move makes Iggy jump into the opponent's face; at this point, the screen turns black with several hit effects appearing, when it returns to normal, the enemy appears to be laying down
While Iggy dies in the original storyline, his Story Mode allows him to change his fate by defeating Vanilla Ice and eventually face off with DIO. During his ending, Iggy returns to New York and becomes the "King of the Dogs". He also saves another character from their canon fate of death—Kakyoin, at the price of Avdol's life. The inverse happens with Avdol's Story Mode, where Iggy takes one for the team against Vanilla Ice but saves Kakyoin from his canon death as well.
Iggy appears as Jotaro's 3-block support koma. Jotaro throws him as a projectile. When Iggy gets near an opponent he will activate The Fool to protect himself (similar to how he did against N'Doul). If he touches an enemy, he immobilizes them while The Fool causes the "Battle Seal" status effect.
Iggy makes an appearance in All Star Battle, as a playable DLC Character, as part of the second campaign, along with Old Joseph Joestar. He is voiced by Shigeru Chiba, though this is considered to be his "inner voice" as his opponents cannot hear him speak. Iggy's alternate costume mirrors his original appearance as a more realistic Boston Terrier before his style change.
Many of his attacks and play style are based off or similar to the ones in Heritage for the Future. As one of the mass majority of playable characters in the game with the "Stand" Style, Iggy can turn The Fool on/off, changing movesets, as well as having access to the Stand Rush ability returning from the Capcom game, being able to attack in conjunction with his Stand.
You callin' me tiny?!: An effect exclusive to Iggy as the smallest character in the game. Iggy automatically deflects any attempts to Throw him and is the fastest runner.
Hang Glider: The Fool sprouts wings made of sand, slowly carrying Iggy through the air. If The Fool is off, Hang Glider has a slow descent but begins at whatever height Iggy activated it from. If The Fool is on, Hang Glider does not descend, allowing Iggy to continue staying in the air until he reaches the opponent or the stage wall, but sets him to a specific height. (Comboable)
Sand Dome: Iggy uses The Fool to instantly block attacks using the Heart Heat Gauge in place of the Guard Gauge by turning it into a hard dome made of sand (similar to how he hid underwater from Pet Shop). The skill will last as long as the inputted button is held, or until the HHG empties.
Throw - Get your ass in gear!: The Fool holds the opponent down as Iggy jumps off of it to kick them away with all four of his legs.
While The Fool is off:
Way to run!: Iggy runs away from the opponent, marking him one of the only three characters in the game capable of running in the opposite direction; The others being Joseph Joestar (both versions) and Hol Horse.
A "nasty" habit: Iggy leaps at the opponent's head. If he connects, he'll chew on their hair and fart in their face before jumping off, leaving them falling to the ground. This move can be used while in mid-air.
DIO Doppelganger: Iggy generates a sand clone of Shadow DIO to attack the opponent with two strikes, sending them into the air in the second hit. The first hit is a middle attack that cannot be blocked if the opponent is crouching. The clone will disperse early if hit by the opponent. (Comboable through Puttsun Cancel)
While The Fool is on:
The Fool: The Fool flies at the opponent, knocking them into the air if it hits. (Comboable through Puttsun Cancel)
Get outta here!: The Fool, using its two front limbs, delivers an upward strike. This move knocks the opponent down on hit, and is capable of reflecting non-HHA/GHA projectiles.
Too easy!: The Fool turns into Iggy while wrapping itself around him to appear natural. While this is in effect, Iggy cannot use skills, special moves, HHA, or GHA, leaving him with only his normal attacks. The effect can be canceled by turning The Fool on or getting hit by an HHA/GHA.
Ha ha, sucker!: If the opponent's non-HHA/GHA attack hits Iggy while "Too easy!" is in effect, The Fool bursts into sand, sending them flying if at close range and ending the ability. (Comboable through Puttsun Cancel)
Iggy's HHA, "Surround 'em!", creates a wave of sand on the ground that rapidly travels forward as he can be seen inside. If it connects, The Fool manifests and lifts the opponent high into the air before pile-driving them to the ground as Iggy wakes up from a short nap. The HHA is able to hit a downed opponent.
Iggy's GHA, "Serves you right!", generates a massive sand wave in a large area in front of him. If it connects, the opponent is sent into the air as The Fool manifests itself and heavily assaults the opponent with sand attacks. Blasting the airborne opponent with sand spikes followed by a wheel made of sand, The Fool then spikes them towards the ground, before Iggy himself comes out of the Stand, diving forward from above and biting the opponent on the nose (similar to his victory over Pet Shop). In his alternate costume, his GHA changes; Instead of biting the opponent's nose, he will clamp onto their head and fart on their face before kicking off (reenacting his initial encounter with Polnareff).
Iggy appears as one of the several Part 3 characters who possess a Metal Striker. His FINISH move has his Stand, The Fool, appear and mow the defeated opponent down.
Similar to All Star Battle (PS3), both of Iggy's appearances possess a Metal Striker, one for his "more realistic dog appearance" and another for his "style change".
Iggy returns as a playable character, but he's now a default character instead of being a DLC. He was confirmed for the game alongside Dio Brando (Part 1), N'Doul and Old Joseph.
As a Stand User, Iggy is one of many characters with wildly varied abilities that grant him uniqueness in battle.
Style Action - The Shape-Shifting Fool of Sand: The Fool turns into Iggy while wrapping itself around him to appear natural. While this is in effect, Iggy's stamina gauge will constantly drain, canceling the ability if it empties or if Style Action is used again. If the opponent's non-DHA attack hits Iggy while the skill is in effect, The Fool bursts into sand to stun opponents while Iggy leaps from the top of the Stand, ready to attack. This skill can only be used when Iggy's stamina gauge is full.
He can float in the air, too?: While in mid-air, The Fool sprouts wings made of sand, slowly carrying Iggy through the air and acting as a sort of hang glider. Iggy has a slow descent and his movement speed is reduced, but upon the skill's activation, is given a small height boost.
Foul Beast: Iggy leaps at an opponent's head. If he connects, he'll chew on their hair and fart in their face before jumping off, leaving them falling to the ground. This skill will drain the target's stamina as well.
The Fool: The Fool flies at opponents, knocking them into the air if it hits. If not locked on, The Fool will simply aim at the nearest opponent. The Fool can also change its trajectory if an opponent is at a different height than Iggy when the skill is executed.
DIO Doppelganger: Iggy generates a sand clone of Shadow DIO to run towards and attack opponents with two strikes, leaving them crumbling on the second hit. If not locked on, the clone will simply aim at the nearest opponent. The clone will disperse early if hit by the opponent or if it runs into an obstacle or wall in its path, but it is also capable of nullifying projectiles.
I-I'll just hide here...: Iggy uses The Fool to instantly block attacks by turning it into a hard dome made of sand (similar to how he hid underwater from Pet Shop). While active, Iggy's health will slowly regenerate and his guard will not take damage from incoming attacks, but his stamina will drain. The skill will last as long as the initiating button is held, or until the stamina gauge empties. When the skill ends, Iggy may cancel the recovery with another attack or skill.
EX - I-I'll just hide here...: The skill executes quicker and Iggy's health regenerates faster.
EX - DIO Doppelganger: The skill executes quicker and the sand clone's movement speed and the damage have been increased.
JoJolities
Pfft...: Iggy must connect "Foul Beast". (200 Points)
Too easy!: Iggy must connect his Style Action twice. (200 Points)
I don't need this crap. Have a nice life.: Iggy must survive the first 15 counts of the battle timer without taking damage. (300 Points)
Grr... I can't let a dog-lover just get killed!: Iggy must successfully execute 5 Combo Breakers. (500 Points)
I've gotta get them before they get me!: Iggy must Retire an enemy with a Dual Heat Attack. (800 Points)
Dual Heat Attacks
Solo - Serves you right!: It works the same as the one from All Star Battle.
With Polnareff -Mad Dance of Sand and Swords: Polnareff calls for Iggy's assistance only to turn around and see him taking a nap; Angry, Polnareff furiously attacks the opponent with Silver Chariot and jumps into the air, before Iggy ultimately joins him as the two deliver a finishing blow with their Stands diving through.
In the game's epilogue, Iggy is shown to have survived his battle with Vanilla Ice and is recovering in the hospital with Avdol and Kakyoin. While the new timeline alters the deaths of several allies, it doesn't alter Iggy losing his paw during his fight with Pet Shop.
Araki created Iggy after wanting to add a pet to the Joestar Group at the time. He chose Iggy's breed based on the fact that Boston Terriers are black and white and easier to depict in manga.[12]
Iggy's second special seems to be a reference to Akuma's famous Shun Goku Satsu (Raging Demon) from the Street Fighter franchise, also developed by Capcom. Aside from the similar animation, the game's data contains an unused sprite of the kanji for dog (犬, "inu"), parodying the kanji for heaven (天, "ten") that appears during Akuma's Shungokustatsu.[13]
The fact that Iggy's Stand uses the Fool tarot card as its namesake may be an allusion to The Idiot, the 1977 debut solo album by his namesake, Iggy Pop. Alternatively it could be an allusion to The Stooges, the band Iggy Pop was frontman for until 1974.
