'''Pokémon Battle''' ({{ja|ポケモンバトル!|Pokemon Batoru!}}, ''Pokémon Battle!'') is the 7th [[event match]] of the 51 [[event matches]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. As an available character of their choice, the player must win a 2 [[stock]] match against a [[CPU]] {{SSBM|Pikachu}} with a [[Alternate costume|red hat]] on Pokémon Stadium, and can only inflict [[damage]] or be damaged by [[hitbox]]es produced by Pokémon from [[Poké Ball]]s - hitboxes from character attacks or thrown Poké Balls will harmlessly go through each character, without causing any damage, [[hitstun]], [[knockback]], or [[hitlag]]. Poké Balls are the only items that appear. CPU Pikachu has a [[handicap]], and rarely uses attacks; it more often attempts to pursue and use Poké Balls during the match (because its CPU mode is set to [[Debug menu#Debug menu-only CPU modes|ITEM]]).
