| A CPU Jigglypuff uses [[Sing]] instead of [[Pound]] or an air dodge after running out of midair jumps when recovering, guaranteeing a failed recovery if it cannot grab the ledge. Additionally, it always does so at exactly a certain distance away from the lower blast line each time.

Additionally, it always does so at exactly a certain distance away from the lower blast line each time. This is because CPUs, with the exception of Luigi, will never use their side special as a recovery move. Furthermore, despite Sing not granting any recovery aid, CPUs consider all up specials as recovery moves.

| CPUs never charge attacks that require button holding, including [[smash attack]]s (with the exception of the Ice Climbers' [[forward smash]]), [[Shield Breaker]], [[Hero's Bow]], [[Skull Bash]], [[Green Missile]], [[Rollout]] (which in particular suffers from the CPU's behavior, since it has no effect other than leaving the user vulnerable if used without being charged), and the [[Super Scope]], among others, the only exceptions being Zelda with [[Din's Fire]], Sheik with [[Needle Storm]] and Ness with [[PK Flash]].

| CPU Peach will sometimes get stuck at the bottom of certain plateaus on various stages, most notably the one on [[Hyrule Temple]]'s far left side. She attempts to jump over the plateau but will immediately activate her unique second jump, whose properties keep her from getting over. As a result, she will repeatedly use her double jump in the corner until an opponent approaches her, an [[List of flaws in artificial intelligence (SSBM)#Item Related|attractive item]] appears, or she is struck by an attack.

| CPU Link and Young Link never use the second hit of their forward smash; as a result, they have more difficulty KOing, as Link's forward smash is relatively weak when the first hit connects, while Young Link's first hit deals low, set knockback to set up the second, more powerful attack.

*Additionally, even if the Hammer's head falls off, CPUs still attempt to chase opponents, putting themselves in harm while doing so. They also never pick up the head intentionally, as with other items.

Unusually, they also hold their shields in place, which can result in a self-inflicted shield break (Jigglypuff will SD because of its unique [[shield jump]]). This is noticeable with the Wire Frames on the [[Event 37: Legendary Pokémon|Legendary Pokémon]] event.

*Additionally, if a CPU is knocked in the air near Venusaur or goes above it to approach a player, it often immediately air dodges, even if the Venusaur can just be jumped over. CPU Fox and Falco will attempt to reflect Venusaur's Earthquake and [[Blastoise]]'s Hydro Pump with their down specials, despite neither attack being able to be reflected.
