Types of battles

Regular battle

All characters except Ganondorf, Roy, and Mr. Game & Watch are eligible to fight the player throughout the mode's three 1-on-1 battles, with their home stages listed below. In this mode, neither Poké Floats nor any Past Stages are used. In Stage 1 on Very Hard Difficulty, the opponent will wear its third alternative costume. In Stage 7 on Hard or Very hard, the computer will usually try to avoid the player at all costs, sometimes by walking off the screen. During the fight with Mewtwo, the theme for Poké Floats will play. During the fight with Marth, the Fire Emblem theme will play. As for the fight with Yoshi, the Yoshi's Story stage has the theme for the Yoshi's Island 64 stage as its alternate music.

Metal battle

All characters eligible to fight the player in 1-on-1 battles may appear as a metal character in this fight. However, the stage is always Battlefield. Also, no items appear in this stage.

Rewards

  • Clearing as Mario without using any continues will challenge the player to defeat Dr. Mario, where victory results in unlocking him.
  • Clearing with any character on any difficulty will challenge the player to defeat Jigglypuff, and beating it results in unlocking it.
  • Clearing with 10 characters will challenge the player to defeat Young Link, and beating him will unlock him.
  • Clearing with all starter characters will challenge the player to defeat Marth from the Fire Emblem series, beating him will unlock him.
  • Clearing with Marth will challenge the player to defeat Roy, and beating him will unlock him.
  • Clearing with all 24 characters will challenge the player to defeat Mr. Game & Watch. Beating him will unlock him.
  • Clearing with Mr. Game & Watch will unlock the Flat Zone stage.
  • Clearing with all characters gives the player the Donkey Kong Junior Trophy.
  • Clearing on Hard or Very Hard without using any continues gives the player a trophy of Master Hand.
  • Clearing on any difficulty with any character will give the player a trophy of the character used. Both Zelda and Sheik's trophies are obtained simultaneously.

Trivia

  • Oddly, Ganondorf will never appear as an enemy fighter, nor will Mr. Game & Watch outside of the Multi-Character Battle. Roy will never appear at all. Sheik will also never initially appear, only ever as a transformation for Zelda, who will never appear as an ally. Despite their absences, they all have the necessary intro poses programmed into the disc. [1]
