Trivia

  • Min Min is the first base game spirit character to become a DLC fighter.
  • Despite appearing occasionally on the jumbotron in Spring Stadium, Misango, Lola Pop, Springtron, and Dr. Coyle do not appear as spirits.
  • Spring Man and Twintelle are the first DLC Spirit board spirits to appear in the World of Light and on the regular spirit board.
  • Ribbon Girl and Ninjara are the first spirits to gain spirit battles after being previously summon exclusive.
  • ARMS and Ice Climber are the only series in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with a playable character where all Spirits originate from the same game.
  • ARMS, F-Zero, Punch-Out, Persona, and Final Fantasy are the only series in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with a playable character where all current Spirits use artwork from the same game, respectively being ARMS, F-Zero GX, Punch-Out (Wii), Persona 5, and Ultimate, mainly due to Cloud not having any artwork from Final Fantasy VII to swap for his Ultimate artwork.
    • This is excluding Ice Climber and Game & Watch, which use sprites, and R.O.B., which uses real-life photographs.
  • Prior to Min Min's release, these spirits were listed as "Others" spirits, and thus would have either no series symbol on the spirits list or a generic ellipsis on the party setup. This was changed after the 8.0.0 update.
  • Min Min's Primary Spirit is the only ARMS spirit that does not appear on the ARMS DLC Spirit Board. This is likely due to Min Min herself being a playable character.
  • All ARMS Spirit Battles that use Mii Brawlers as puppet fighters use Flashing Mach Punch, which references the Rush attack that all ARMS characters can use.
  • ARMS and Minecraft are the only universes introduced as DLC to not have all their spirit battles use songs from the universe (not counting Fatal Fury, whose songs from non-Fatal Fury series are still grouped under Fatal Fury in the Sound Test).
