Prior to ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', characters are required to use [[alternate costume]]s matching their team color; if two or more players are using the same character on the same team, they will be differentiated by a light or dark tint. In ''Smash 4'' and ''Ultimate'', a character's allegiance is instead indicated by a colored outline. This is so that the player can use any color costume of their choice for their character. The following team setups are possible (not including those with only one player per team): | ||
*2 vs. 1 | |||
*2 vs. 2 (known as [[doubles]] in [[competitive play]]) | |||

With a maximum of eight characters that can participate in a match, further team setups become available, bringing the total number to 41 (excluding 1 vs 1s). The setups done with 5 or more players are: | ||

Since team battles are a regular type of Versus Mode, the usual options of [[Time]], [[Stock]], and [[Coin Battle]] matches can be selected, along with [[Special Smash]] rules as well. In Time and Coin matches, the score (or coins collected) of each team is the combined score of its members and if multiple teams have the same total by the end of the match, then [[Sudden Death]] will occur between all members of the tied teams. Stock matches are played in essentially the same manner; each player starts with a set number of lives and the objective is to deplete the stock of the opposing team(s). However, in Team Stock matches there is a feature known as [[Share Stock]] where, when one player on a team loses their last stock and has a teammate with two or more stocks, the fallen teammate may borrow one of their teammate's stocks and re-spawn as usual. | Since team battles are a regular type of Versus Mode, the usual options of [[Time]], [[Stock]], and [[Coin Battle]] matches can be selected, along with [[Special Smash]] rules as well.

However, turning on [[Friendly Fire]] (or Team Attack) on the options screen will allow players to damage their allies. This can lead to techniques such as easily using [[Mr. Game & Watch]]'s [[Oil Panic]] move, giving [[Kirby]] a copy ability using {{b|Inhale|Kirby}}, healing [[Ness]] or [[Lucas]] with [[PSI Magnet]], or hitting a recovering ally with a low-[[knockback]] [[projectile]], allowing them to reuse their [[up special move]] after becoming [[helpless]]. | ||

In ''Smash 4'', only one of the characters (the player with the highest score/stock count) will perform a complete victory animation and even then, only one of their animations can ever play, usually being the least special effects heavy (Mewtwo, for example, can only use the victory animation where it turns its head towards the screen after facing away, and can never use its other two). In ''Ultimate'', if {{SSBU|Joker}} poses in front, no other team members will appear. Futhermore, if a solo player wins a Team Battle, the character will perform his or her victory pose, as in a regular Free For All match. | ||

*In the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', selecting the blue team was the only way to use {{SSB|Samus}}' or {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}'s Blue color, and selecting the green team was the only way to get Captain Falcon's, {{SSB|Mario}}'s, {{SSB|Kirby}}'s, and {{SSB|Donkey Kong}}'s green color, due to these colors not being available using the [[C button]]s. | |||
*In 2 vs. 1 or 3 vs. 1 battles, despite there being only one opponent to attack, the Bully, Predator, and Stalker [[list of bonuses|penalties]] will still be given out to the members of the multi-player team for only attacking a single participant. | |||

If the item's other two parts were each picked up by other teammates, the teammate that picks up the last part will have the item fully built and ready to use.

* | *Strangely, shield and blast line colors in ''Brawl'' for the green team will be yellow instead of green. However, if players play against CPUs, shield colors will then always be based on controller port (red=P1, blue=P2, yellow=P3 and green=P4) | ||

*If playing Team Battles in [[With Anyone]], the player can't choose their character until another player has joined. | |||
