::As I thought there's not even an option to rematch a Challenger Pack spirit without the pack, it just shows it like any other spirit without a spirit battle.

I find this interesting because 4.0.0 was the last update to make an event spirit available (being Peachette), all others are after a certain date (one date was hours before 7.0.0 but was still included in the patch notes). These spirits are fully fight-able on the spirit board and you'll get the spirit properly but with the placeholder image... in airplane mode. Having access to the internet and going to the spirit board will automatically download the relevant BCAT data. According to Random Talking Bush on spriters-resource, this is the "changes in the backend regarding event-based Spirits" that makes it difficult to get the sprites for recent events: BCAT data is stored differently.  --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 22:19, January 16, 2021 (EST)
::::Fascinating. I had encountered this too back in March, according to my own screenshots. By my recollection it had also retroactively affected spirits I had previously obtained and seen the artwork of before, and I did remember finding it curious that the sprites weren't saved to the system after their initial download (I presume I hadn't deleted and reinstalled any SSBU files around that time given I was still using my console for tournament setups and therefore needed my 100% save on deck). Thank you again, both for the images and for taking the time to find out the cause of the placeholder phenomenon. [[User:DevNode|DevNode]] ([[User talk:DevNode|talk]]) 22:44, January 16, 2021 (EST)
