'''Pokémon Battle''' is the 7th of the 51 [[event match]]es in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.  
This event lets you choose any character. You have 2 stock, and so does your opponent, Pikachu. You can only damage each other by using Pokémon from [[Poké Balls]]s. You are in [[Pokémon Stadium]].


The player controls a fighter of their choice and must win a 2-[[stock]] match against a red [[Artificial intelligence|computer]]-controlled {{SSBM|Pikachu}} on the [[Pokémon Stadium]] stage. The event lacks a time limit. Pikachu is [[handicap]]ped, and its artificial intelligence is set at Level 5.
=Strategies=
==[[Captain Falcon]]==
Captain Falcon is the fastest character in the game, so use him to gather your Pokeballs before Pikachu.


When the match starts, the player's fighter spawns on the leftmost soft platform, while Pikachu spawns on the rightmost soft platform. As the name implies, the selection of items is limited to [[Poké Ball]]s, and both fighters can only take damage from Pokémon that appear from the Poké Balls. Attacks and thrown Poké Balls will pass through each character without causing any damage, [[hitstun]], [[knockback]], or [[hitlag]]. Pikachu uses the "ITEM" [[List of CPU modes|mode]], which makes it frequently pursue Poké Balls that appear and rarely use attacks.

==Trivia==
*It is possible to block Pikachu from picking up Poké Balls by giving it a non-throwing item. This can only happen if {{SSBM|Peach}} spawns a [[Beam Sword]] or [[Mr. Saturn]] via [[Vegetable]], then drops it close to a Poké Ball such that Pikachu unintentionally picks it up. Once Pikachu has the item, it will never throw or attack with it, even after more Poké Balls appear on the stage.
*Pikachu will still attempt to shield attacks, even though they are harmless. As such, it is possible to force Pikachu to break its shield by using a quick attack such as {{SSBM|Fox}}'s {{b|Blaster|Fox}}.
