Event match: Difference between revisions

{{redirect|Event|the events that occur randomly in Smash Run|Smash Run}}

Event matches were introduced in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', as part of the game's single-player mode. Only 10 are initially available to the player, with the rest appearing as the player fulfills a number of other objectives in the game. There are a total of fifty-one event matches in ''Melee''.

A majority of ''Melee''{{'}}s event matches allow the player to select their character, although several of them require the use of an assigned character. Of note is that, with the exception of {{SSBM|Pikachu}}, all characters in the [[Original 12]] from [[Smash 64]] have their own dedicated event match. The other 5 events ([[Event 25: Gargantuans]], [[Event 32: Target Acquired]], [[Event 34: Seven Years]], [[Event 41: En Garde!]], and [[Event 45: Game & Watch Forever!]]) are the only 5 events to have a [[Melee]] [[newcomer]] for an assigned character. Of these five, [[Event 25: Gargantuans]] is the only one that has one Melee's newcomers as a [[starter character]] ({{SSBM|Bowser}}). The other four are all [[unlockable character]]s (including {{SSBM|Falco}}, {{SSBM|Young Link}}, {{SSBM|Marth}}, and {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}).  

Also of note is that no recovery items (like [[Food]], [[Maxim Tomato]]es or [[Heart Container]]s) appear in any of the event matches. However, {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}'s [[Judgement]] 7 can still drop a [[Food]] item to recover damage.  

|Clear {{SSBM|Classic Mode}}, [[Adventure Mode]], and [[All-Star Mode]] at least once each with any character and on any [[difficulty]] and complete all other 50 events. ||[[Event 51: The Showdown]]

==In ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''==

Unlike in ''Melee'' (where most of the events allow the player to choose any character), almost all of ''Brawl''{{'}}s event matches have an assigned character. Only the [[All-Star Match]]es (for solo events) and the final two solo and co-op events allow the player to choose any character. This appears to be done so that players are required to use nearly every character at least once; all 35 characters available from the [[character selection screen]] have at least one assigned event. {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} is considered a single character for his assigned solo and co-op events. {{SSBB|Sheik}} doesn't have an assigned event, but can be freely swapped in for {{SSBB|Zelda}} where applicable. As for the remaining two switched in characters ({{SSBB|Samus}} and {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}}), both characters have a separate event match (solo and co-op). {{SSBB|Luigi}} and {{SSBB|Jigglypuff}} lack an assigned solo event, but they appear as assigned characters in co-op events ([[Co-Op Event 11: The Great Remodeling Battle]] and [[Co-Op Event 16: Jigglypuff's Great Comeback]], respectively).

Event matches are absent from ''Ultimate''. However, [[Spirits]] Matches (and stages from the [[World of Light]]) feature similar fights with unique conditions. In addition, fights in various fighters' [[Classic Mode (SSBU)|Classic Mode]] routes have unique conditions similar to those of event matches.

*In the ''Wii U'' version, all randomized stages will have a consistent layout across matches until the player leaves the Event screen. For example, [[Gamer]] will always have the same objects and [[Port Town Aero Dive]] will always stop at the same places.

*''Brawl'' is the only game in the series in which none of the event matches involve fighting bosses (aside from [[minor boss]]es like [[Giant DK]] and [[Giant Bowser]]).

*Mario is the only character to have more than event, both in Solo and Group events.
