-The Monado is a legendary weapon from the {{uv|Xenoblade}} universe. Although categorized as a sword, it instead conceals a blade of ether energy (not unlike the [[Beam Sword]]) that appears whenever the weapon is swung. Capable of damaging the otherwise nearly-invulnerable Mechon, the Monado was used by the Homs of Bionis to defend themselves from the invading Mechon attackers. Wielded by [[Dunban]] in the prologue of ''Xenoblade Chronicles'', the weapon is then taken up by [[Shulk]] in defense of his home, Colony 9. The Monado is capable of using a unique set of [[Monado Arts|battle arts]], with Shulk discovering more arts as he progresses through the game. Ultimately, Shulk and his company discover the connection between the Monado and the gods of the ''Xenoblade'' world.

-In ''Smash'', {{SSB4|Shulk}} wields the Monado as his primary weapon, and utilizes its [[Monado Arts]]. Thanks to the its beam blade, this makes the Monado the longest-reaching sword used by any playable fighter in the series. A stylized depiction of the Monado is also used as the ''Xenoblade'' [[series symbol]], matching how it was stylized on the loading screens of ''Xenoblade Chronicles''. Interestingly, despite the lore of ''Xenoblade Chronicles'' dictating that the Monado is unable to harm any living beings except the Mechon, this is not the case in ''Super Smash Bros.'' due to obvious gameplay reasons.
