'''Pokémon Battle''' is the 7th of the 51 [[event match]]es in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.  
'''Pokémon Battle''' is the 7th [[event match]] of the 51 [[event matches]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. As an available character of their choice, the player must win a 2 [[stock]] match against a [[CPU]] {{SSBM|Pikachu}} with a [[Alternate costume|red hat]] on [[Pokémon Stadium]]. Both characters can only take [[damage]] from Pokémon that appear from [[Poké Ball]]s. Attacks and thrown Poké Balls will pass through each character without causing any damage, [[hitstun]], [[knockback]], or [[hitlag]]. Poké Balls are the only items that appear. CPU Pikachu has a [[handicap]]. It uses the [[Debug menu (SSBM)#CPU modes|ITEM]] CPU mode, which means that it frequently pursues Poké Balls and rarely uses attacks.
 
The player controls a fighter of their choice and must win a 2-[[stock]] match against a red [[Artificial intelligence|computer]]-controlled {{SSBM|Pikachu}} on the [[Pokémon Stadium]] stage. The event lacks a time limit. Pikachu is [[handicap]]ped, and its artificial intelligence is set at Level 5.
 
When the match starts, the player's fighter spawns on the leftmost soft platform, while Pikachu spawns on the rightmost soft platform. As the name implies, the selection of items is limited to [[Poké Ball]]s, and both fighters can only take damage from Pokémon that appear from the Poké Balls. Attacks and thrown Poké Balls will pass through each character without causing any damage, [[hitstun]], [[knockback]], or [[hitlag]]. Pikachu uses the "ITEM" [[List of CPU modes|mode]], which makes it frequently pursue Poké Balls that appear and rarely use attacks.

*It is possible to block Pikachu from picking up Poké Balls by giving it a non-throwing item. This can only happen if {{SSBM|Peach}} spawns a [[Beam Sword]] or [[Mr. Saturn]] via [[Vegetable]], then drops it close to a Poké Ball such that Pikachu unintentionally picks it up. Once Pikachu has the item, it will never throw or attack with it, even after more Poké Balls appear on the stage.

*Pikachu will still attempt to shield attacks, even though they are harmless. As such, it is possible to force Pikachu to break its shield by using a quick attack such as {{SSBM|Fox}}'s {{b|Blaster|Fox}}.
