Downloadable content (SSBU)/List of DLC Spirits

While most spirits are available for free, usually launched during Spirit Board events or with the release of a new Challenger Pack DLC, DLC Fighter spirits cannot be obtained without owning their corresponding fighter. Fighter spirits can be unlocked through or purchased from the Shop for 300 Gold. Spirits associated with an owned Challenger Pack can be fought and obtained through a special DLC Spirit Board that does not have spirits expire or use the Puppet fighter scene; otherwise, they may appear for purchase in the Vault Shop whether their corresponding Challenger Pack is owned or not. Spirits introduced in Spirit Board events are initially obtainable only for the duration of that event, and become permanently available at a later date. Spirits introduced via save data bonuses in a major version release were initially obtainable only through possessing corresponding save data, and became universally available upon the next major version release.

Trivia

 * Partner Pikachu and Partner Eevee are the only spirits obtainable via Presents that had accessible Spirit Board battles before the date they were made universally available.
 * Zacian & Zamazenta, Fury Bowser, Evil Ryu, and Rauru are the only Legend class DLC Spirits to not be part of a DLC Spirit Board.
 * Strangely, the Phantom Thieves of Hearts and Malos spirits are the only DLC spirit board Legendary spirits to be picked for autopick.
 * Despite the River City spirits releasing before the Fire Emblem: Three Houses spirits, they are numbered after them.
 * This resulted in a numbering oddity prior to Version 7.0.0 as in the Spirit List, it would jump from 1,379 (Lappy) to 1,394 (Kunio).
 * This also implies that all the spirits for Challenger Pack 5 were made before the River City spirits were even released, but also after the ASTRAL CHAIN spirits were released.
 * Despite Sophia originating from the Persona series, she does not appear on the Persona DLC Spirit Board, instead appearing on the main Spirit Board.
 * Somewhat similarly, the Tockles spirit wasn't part of the Dragon Quest DLC board either upon its release, but it was retroactively added a couple of months later.
 * Samus (Metroid Dread) and E.M.M.I. are the only DLC spirits that are obtainable via amiibo.
 * Strangely, the Noah & Mio spirit does not list the series it hails from, but its series symbol is still present.
