In the ''Final Fantasy'' series, Chocobos are large birds commonly used as mounts. They are most commonly depicted as yellow, but [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Chocobo/Types several color variations] also exist. Since their first appearance in ''{{iw|wikipedia|Final Fantasy II}}'', they have appeared in every game in the series in some way, and they could be considered one of the series' mascots.

Chocobo & Moogle comprise an unlockable [[spirit]] available through {{SSBU|Sephiroth}}'s [[DLC Spirits (mode)|DLC]] [[Spirit Board]], added as part of [[List of updates (SSBU)#10.1.0_2|version 10.1.0]]. Unlike the cartoony Mii Fighter hat, the Chocobo's spirit artwork is derived from its ''Final Fantasy VII Remake'' appearance. The Chocobo is represented by a {{SSBU|Mii Brawler}} wearing the Chocobo Hat with a Yellow Tracksuit, with an [[Isaac|Isaac Wig]] instead of the hat if it is not purchased, while the Moogle is represented by a gray Kirby. The Spirit Battle is meant to be very easy, with its only special element being [[Cucco]]s that constantly spawn. The spirit increases speed in reference to the Chocobo's running prowess throughout the ''Final Fantasy'' series. | |||
