As implied by its name, Training Mode is intended to allow players to practice using characters in a non-serious setting. All matches within the mode are actually [[Time]] matches of infinite length, as seen on the Jumbotrons featured in the [[Pokémon Stadium]] stages. The player can use any character they wish and select one CPU character as their opponent. The CPU's [[Artificial_intelligence|level]] is fixed at 3 in ''Super Smash Bros.'' and 1 in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''; starting in ''Brawl'', the level can be freely selected much like in standard Versus Mode matches. Any stages available to the player can be used in the mode, including ''Super Smash Bros. 4''{{'}}s [[Ω form]] stages and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''{{'}}s [[Battlefield form]] stages, except for the custom stages in ''Ultimate''. In ''Ultimate'', Training Mode allows selecting [[Training (stage)|an exclusive stage]] with a grid that displays exact distances between points.

A new modifier in ''Ultimate'' allows drawing of launch distances and trajectories for an attack: a red, green and blue line will display the predicted distance and trajectory for that attack as if it was used against an opponent at 0%, 50%, and 100% damage, respectively. The weight, fall speed, and gravity of the targeted fighter are factored into the predictions as well, allowing for a detailed calculation of how well an attack will perform in any given circumstance. [[Stale-move negation]] is not present in the mode for ''Brawl'' or ''SSB4'', and [[rage]] is not present in ''SSB4''; a new modifier in Ultimate allows the player to turn these elements on or off. Additionally, pausing in ''SSB4'' and ''Ultimate'' will freeze the stage and relevant hazards, but not characters or items; in ''Ultimate'', attacks will also not connect while the game is paused, effectively making all characters [[intangible]].

*'''Item''': Allows the player to spawn an item of their choice on the stage. As the pause menu does not stop gameplay, items can interact with the environment while the stage is paused. ''Brawl'' introduced the ability to spawn [[Capsule]]s, [[Crate]]s, and [[Barrel]]s. ''Ultimate'' added the option to spawn specific [[Assist Trophies]] or [[Poké Ball]]s, although some can't be selected on certain stages.

*Although opening the Training Mode menu otherwise disables all actions for fighters so that the player can toggle the menu options, the game oddly still enables the shifting of the position of shields while the menu is open (which can be accomplished by activating the shield and immediately opening the menu before the shield is dropped). It is not known what causes this glitch.

*If a character in Training Mode has All-Round Trade-Off [[Equipment]] they will start with 0% damage (with the damage meter even doing the "damaged" animation) instead of 60%. This can be fixed by pushing "Reset" in the training menu.

*If resetting while a fighter's [[jostle]] strength is modified, it will not be corrected until a move which corrects the fighter's jostle strength is used. Currently, {{SSBU|Isabelle}} is the only fighter affected by this, with her fishing rod both triggering and fixing the glitch.

*Modifying the Speed setting will alter the pitch of some Final Smashes, such as [[Puff Up]], [[Mega Legends]], [[NES Zapper Posse]], and [[Shulk]]'s grunt during the final hit of [[Chain Attack]].

*In ''Smash 4'', the CPU number and behavior cannot be changed if any player possesses a Smash Ball, the former of which stops the situation described above from happening (Final Smashes attacking nothing). Damage also can't be modified during a Final Smash attack. Items also oddly cannot be spawned while any character is in [[hitstun]] or in the [[tumbling]] animation.

*In ''for Nintendo 3DS'', if the speed is set to a "(Hold L)" setting, the character models will change when the button is held. This is because the game indirectly pauses when the L button is not held, and ''Smash 3DS'' switches the detail of the character models between gameplay and pausing.

*Screen KOs are disabled in Training Mode in ''Smash 4'' (after one of the updates in ''Smash 3DS''{{'}}s case) and ''Ultimate''. It is unknown why this is the case.
