On [[The Glacial Peak|a snowy mountain]], it appears that the Great Fox has been directed into combat with the Halberd as some sort of distraction - the two ships are firing incessant blasts at each other. Marth, Meta Knight, Ike, Lucas, and Pokémon Trainer see the battle at the mountain base, with Meta Knight taking the chance to reclaim his ship, leaving the others to begin ascent. He passes the {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}} on the way up, who take his quick speed as a challenge, and the new group fight upwards to reach the summit. Upon reaching the top, {{SSBB|Lucario}} is found meditating on the peak. It leaps towards Meta Knight and challenges him to a battle; the winner revives the loser as they shake hands in respect. Just then, the Halberd plunges through the clouds with its Combo Cannon having ensnared the Great Fox, ramming it into the mountain and knocking the Ice Climbers off. Meta Knight and Lucario manage to use this opportunity to jump onboard. The Ice Climbers land by [[The Canyon|a canyon]] next to Meta Knight's former group as the Halberd drops a crowd of Shadow Bugs; Mario, Pit, Link, Yoshi and Kirby arrive just as the fight starts and the two groups merge with each other soon after, along with the Ice Climbers.

[[Battleship Halberd Interior|Inside the Halberd]], {{SSBB|Snake}} decides the time is right and leaves his cover to begin operations as the damaged Great Fox limps off. He hides in his box upon spotting Meta Knight and Lucario, but is shocked to be exposed by Lucario, who notices him due to his [[aura]]. A leery Meta Knight is told by Lucario that he is an ally. The trio continue to fight through the Halberd to find what appears to be a cargo bay, with both Peach's and Zelda's trophies in cages; both princesses are replicated by Shadow Bugs and are summarily defeated. Peach and Zelda are freed and revived, though Snake tells them to stay put while his group moves off. Despite this, as soon as Snake, Meta Knight and Lucario leave, Zelda takes on the persona of {{SSBB|Sheik}} and leaves the cargo bay with an amused Peach following. The duo fight around [[Battleship Halberd Exterior|the Halberd's exterior areas]] to reach the top deck. Fox is back in another Arwing and is attempting to neutralize its Combo Cannon, which, due to how close the princesses were to it, makes Sheik think he is shooting at them. Sheik teleports onto the Arwing and breaks the window, forcing Fox to eject and land on the Halberd. As Sheik and Fox are about to fight, Peach offers them some tea, which brings the conflict to an abrupt and confusing end. In the meantime, Meta Knight, Lucario and Snake have reached [[Battleship Halberd Bridge|the Halberd's bridge]]. They find that the ship is being run by a quintet of false Mr. Game & Watches. Snake runs in and busts all the doppelgängers out the window, where they land on the deck beside Peach, Zelda and Fox. Almost immediately, they all dissolve into Shadow Bugs and form into a fiend known as [[Duon]], a last resort to defend the Halberd. As Meta Knight remains on the bridge to take back his ship, Snake and Lucario jump down to help in the fight, in addition to Falco. Once Duon is vanquished, it leaves behind the real Mr. Game & Watch; once revived, he joins the group. The Subspace Army has now lost its mothership.
