A Core is an item that appears Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. They are used in summoning spirits and as an alternative to snacks. Cores can only be obtained by dismissing spirits, granting SP based on the spirit's class and number of slots it uses (for support spirits only) and a core of that spirit's type and class. Once obtained they can be sold, used in summoning, or be fed to spirits to level them up.

As a snack

Just like snacks, cores will give a spirit experience but at the cost of some SP. Feeding a spirit a core that has a matching type to that spirit will give it 30% more experience at no extra cost.

Rank	SP cost	EXP gained	Type match
Novice ★☆☆☆	9 SP	300	390
Advanced ★★☆☆	32 SP	1000	1300
Ace ★★★☆	80 SP	2500	3250
Legend ★★★★	160 SP	5000	6500

Trivia

• Novice cores are the most SP efficient core. They give 33.3 EXP per SP (43.3 with matching types) whereas other cores give 31.25 EXP per SP (40.625), a 6.6% increase.
