The [[Ω form]] and [[Battlefield form]] are set on a completely flat version of the normal form's main platform that is also resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively. The other platforms are completely absent, and the platforms in the Battlefield form are based on ones that can appear on the main stage. Like other traveling stages, both forms travel across the skies, though both forms also start off in the air rather than at the base (similar to [[Halberd]]). | The [[Ω form]] and [[Battlefield form]] are set on a completely flat version of the normal form's main platform that is also resized and reshaped to match {{SSBU|Final Destination}} and {{SSBU|Battlefield}}, respectively.

{{s| | {{s|wikipedia|Yggdrasil}}, the world tree of Norse legend, is a recurring location in the ''Dragon Quest'' series, first introduced in ''{{s|wikipedia|Dragon Quest II}}''. It is a giant, mythical tree that can only be found in isolated and dangerous locations, in order to prevent the general populace from approaching it. Two of the most potent healing items in the series, the Yggdrasil Leaf and Yggdrasil dew, contain the essence of the tree. It plays important roles in both ''{{s|wikipedia|Dragon Quest IV}}'' and ''{{s|wikipedia|Dragon Quest IX}}'', where it appears as a late-game location in the former, and is part of the plot in the latter. While the location has appeared in multiple ''Dragon Quest'' titles, Yggdrasil's design and the Altar itself are both derived from ''Dragon Quest XI''. The platform where the battle takes place on never actually moves in ''Dragon Quest XI''. | ||
Cetacea, the flying whale in the background, debuted in ''Dragon Quest XI'' as the Luminary's holy conveyance. He can summon Her by playing the Calamus Flute anywhere in Erdrea, thus transporting him and his party onto Her back to fly to certain locations, notably the floating islands Havens Above, home of the mysterious all-seeing race known as the Watchers. Cetacea eventually gains special golden armor in the third act of ''Dragon Quest XI'', but Her design in ''Ultimate'' is based on Her normal, unarmored form. | Cetacea, the flying whale in the background, debuted in ''Dragon Quest XI'' as the Luminary's holy conveyance.

The [[Luminary]] must find the Tockles dispatched to Erdrea to recover passwords that will allow him access to the worlds kept within the tomes. | ||
