Moltres' Spirit Battle uses a red {{SSBU|Lucas}} puppet fighter starting off with the Poké Ball containing Moltres, and is fought on the [[Find Mii]] stage's [[Battlefield form]]. He is fought along with the cyan and orange Lucas puppet fighters representing Articuno and Zapdos respectively. During the battle, the Lucas puppet fighters will reflect projectiles, referencing the Legendary birds' defensive abilities. The red Lucas puppet fire also frequently uses [[PK Fire]], referencing Moltres' Fire type.
