Editing Classic Mode (SSBM)

'''Classic Mode''' is a 1-player mode in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. Following a structure similar to that of the [[1P Game]] mode from the [[SSB|original game]], the player chooses a single character, [[stock]], and [[difficulty]] level, then battles through 11 different stages, culminating in a final battle with {{SSBM|Master Hand}} (and, depending on the situation, {{SSBM|Crazy Hand}}). In addition to standard battles, three bonus rounds are also included, allowing for players to further increase their score and potentially gain other rewards from the mode. If the player loses all of their stock, they can potentially [[continue]], assuming their supply of [[gold]] allows for it.

While Classic Mode does have a fixed order concerning the themes of battles and the presence of bonus rounds, the characters the player may fight against or fight alongside of are randomized from a pool of characters. Furthermore, the player's selected character will be excluded from inclusion as an opponent or ally, thus making [[mirror match]]es impossible.

==Classic Mode stages==

This stage is a regular 1 vs. 1 battle. There is a 5 minute time limit. On Very Hard difficulty, the opponent will wear the 4th costume.  

This stage is a 2 vs. 2 team battle. There is a 5 minute time limit. On Very Hard difficulty, the first opponent will wear the 4th costume.

The final bonus stage is {{SSBM|Race to the Finish}}, where players have to race through an obstacle course within a varied time limit. The farther the player makes it through Race to the Finish, the more points and coins they receive; getting KO'd at any point or running out of time, however, forfeits both.

All characters except {{SSBM|Ganondorf}}, {{SSBM|Roy}}, and {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}} are eligible to battle the player throughout the mode's three 1-on-1 battles, with their home stages listed below. In this mode, neither [[Poké Floats]] nor any [[Past Stages]] are used. In Stage 1 on Very Hard Difficulty, the opponent will wear its third alternative costume. In Stage 7 on Hard or Very Hard, the computer will usually try to avoid the player at all costs, sometimes by walking off the screen.

Below is the list of all the teams the player can fight in Classic Mode, each of which have a loose theme. For instance, the {{SSBM|Kirby}}/{{SSBM|Ice Climbers}} team is a likely reference to {{SSBM|Kirby}}'s Hammer Ability and the {{SSBM|Ness}}/{{SSBM|Peach}} team is a likely reference to [[Paula]] Polestar, a party member and Ness' love interest in ''{{b|EarthBound|game}}''. Both the characters for each team and the stage fought on is listed. There are a total of 29 teams. All playable characters aside from {{SSBM|Zelda}}/{{SSBM|Sheik}} and {{SSBM|Roy}} can fight alongside the player. Allies all use their first [[Palette swap (SSBM)|alternate costume]]. On Very Hard Difficulty, the first opponent wears its third alternative costume. When fighting a team of Mario and Bowser on Battlefield, ''{{MeleeMusic|Princess Peach's Castle}}'' will play.

Just like the teams, and the giant characters the player fights, the multiple-character fight is picked randomly from a group that has already been predetermined by the game. This level consists of ten multiples of one of nine different characters. During the battle against ten Donkey Kongs at Jungle Japes, ''{{MeleeMusic|Kongo Jungle}}'' will play.

All characters except Ganondorf, Roy, and Mr. Game & Watch are eligible to appear as a metal character in this 1-on-1 battle against the player. The stage will always be {{SSBM|Battlefield}}, with the track ''{{MeleeMusic|Metal Battle}}'' playing.

*Clearing as {{SSBM|Mario}} without using any continues will challenge the player to defeat {{SSBM|Dr. Mario}}, and beating him will unlock him.

*Clearing as Marth without using any continues will challenge the player to defeat {{SSBM|Roy}}, and beating him will unlock him.

*Unusually, some characters do not appear in Classic Mode, despite having the [[Media:BetaAllStarIntro.png|required poses]] in the game's data.

**{{SSBM|Roy}} is completely absent and neither spawns as an enemy nor an ally.

*If the player connects to port 3, then the CPU ally's [[series symbol]] will turn into a grayish-yellow shade for yellow team, despite yellow is not a selectable team color in the game.
