Robots vs. Dragons (known as Robots vs Reptiles in PAL versions of the game) is a co-op event match in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Player 1 controls Mega Man while player 2 controls R.O.B.. The players must initially defeat Giant Yoshi, Giant Charizard, and Ridley in a 200 HP battle.

Progression[edit]

This event is unlocked by unlocking R.O.B. and clearing Solidarity. Completing the event does not unlock any further paths.

Completing the event within 70 seconds awards a Double-Jump Boost Helmet equipment.

Trivia[edit]

  • Despite the NTSC name of this Event Match, both of the non-boss opponents involved are not consistently considered to be dragons:
    • Charizard lacks the “Dragon” Pokémon elemental type unless Mega Evolved into Mega Charizard X despite being based on a European dragon.
    • Yoshi is generally (and inconsistently) considered a dinosaur rather than a dragon in his home series. An update on the Smash Bros. DOJO!! (now changed) once read:
It’s tough to know what to call Yoshi—some call him a dragon, others a dinosaur. Some people don’t know WHAT he is. But whatever you call him, Yoshi’s true power will be seen here! [1]
  • This is one of only four events in Wii U to have a stage boss for an opponent. The others are Galactic Avenger, Mechanical Menace and Yellow Devils.
    • It is also the only Co-Op event to have a stage boss.
      • Ironically, this is also the only event to have both opponents in Mechanical Menace as playable fighters.
