Downloadable content (SSBU)/List of Spirits with DLC changes

During the development of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, several spirits received changes due to updates,, or purchasable.

Spirit Battles
By purchasing and downloading extra content, certain Spirit Battles associated with these will change to include these additions. Below is a list of all Spirit Battles affected by this rule. Shaded elements are changes made after DLC is purchased.

Spirits that gained spirit battles
These spirits initially did not have spirit battles, and were only obtainable via Summon or by purchasing from shops in World of Light, but gained them through updates and DLC. Spirits that gained battles after the release of a specific DLC fighter require that fighter's Challenger Pack in order to partake in their battle.

Trivia

 * Prior to version 8.0.0, the Ryo Sakazaki spirit battle did not use the Mii Costume, even if it was downloaded.
 * Although there are corresponding Mii outfits, some spirit battles have not changed at least one of their fighters to match said Mii outfit. These include the Tails, MegaMan.EXE,, , Rex, Squid Sisters,  Veronica (in the Hero's Comrades spirit), Bomberman, Akira, Iori Yagami, Nakoruru, Geno, and Shantae battles.
 * If sole headgear is counted, then this applies to Morgana, Slime, Rabbids, Octolings and Judd as well.
 * Rex, Tora, and Mòrag are the only spirits in World of Light to have their battles affected by DLC.
