“	Spirit battles have various conditions that may remind you of the character you're battling. If you manage to win one of these matches, you'll get a chance to capture the spirit for yourself!	”
—Super Smash Blog, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Official Site

Most spirits can be obtained via Spirit Battles, which appear similar to the thematic missions seen in Event Matches and Super Smash Bros. for Wii U's Special Orders. Battles can randomly appear on the Spirit Board and/or be accessible in World of Light. Each Spirit Battle contains unique challenges and rules. The spirits that are battled against will be paired with puppet fighters of a similar personality and/or appearance, with the battle's rules, conditions, stage and music track often being reflective of the spirit itself. During all battles against spirits, the Final Smash Meter will be active, and certain spirits can make the gauge fill up faster or slow the rate the enemy's gauge fills at. If there are more than one opponent, then the battle will either be a team battle with team attack turned off, or a horde battle similar to the ones seen in Classic Mode. Occasionally, a CPU ally will engage the battle with the player as well. Like in Classic Mode, the player is always given only one stock, unlike with aforementioned game modes in previous games. The battle is won when the victory conditions are met, such as defeating all opponents or surviving for long enough.

Before each Spirit Battle, the two sides' strengths will be compared. The higher the player's advantage over the spirit, the easier the battle will be, but fewer rewards will be earned if the player's strength is significantly greater than the spirit's. The player's strength is dictated by the spirit team the player has the option to use. This team can include one primary spirit and 0 to 3 support spirits depending on the number of slots the primary spirit possesses and the number of slots each support spirit fills. The player can manually choose the spirits for a team, or they can press they Y button for the game to automatically create what it calculates to be the most optimal spirit team for the specific battle. Factors for spirit selection include the rules and strength of the spirit battle, the fighter the player uses, the amount of slots the primary spirit possesses, and the abilities of each spirit, all while creating the minimum strength team possible. The player can also use no spirits if they wish.

There are Support Items one can earn or purchase to make the spirit obtaining process easier. Examples include slow Final Smash Meter Charging, draining the health of opponents, making minions weaker, disabling items, and dealing a collective 50% damage split among all enemies.

One can also battle other players locally in versus matches with spirits equipped, working in a similar manner to character customization from Super Smash Bros. 4. As of version 2.0.0, up to four players can engage in a Spirit Board battle at once, and both the difficulty of the fight and the rewards for completion will be scaled accordingly; however, the battle will end in failure if any human player is KO'd.
