SSBU spirit Super Star.png
 Super Star •Rosalina & Luma Rosalina (SSBU)
Shield
 9,200 Peach's Castle •Attack Power ↑
•Temporary Invincibility
•Item: Super Star 		•The enemy will occasionally be invincible when the enemy's at high damage
•All fighters are easy to launch
•The enemy's FS Meter charges quickly 		Main Theme - Super Mario 64 Spirit Battle inspiration:
  • Rosalina's yellow costume featuring stars in its design and Luma's star-shaped body represent the Super Star, a yellow star with simple black eyes, which appears as the item.
  • The stage and music track represents the main setting of Super Mario 64 which features the Power Stars, while Rosalina & Luma's Grand Star Final Smash represents the Grand Star from the Super Mario Galaxy series, both of which are similar but distinct entities of the Super Star.
  • The Temporary Invincibility, Attack Power ↑, and Easy to Launch rules reference the Super Star's ability to grant the player temporary invincibility and easily defeat enemies by knocking them off-screen.
Other trivia:
  • This spirit's Support and Shield types, and First-Strike Advantage ability further reference the Super Star's ability to grant the player temporary invincibility, which also gives them a bright and sparkling appearance.
  • In World of Light, the Super Star spirit is located in the eastern cloudy area in the Light Realm, similar to the stage's cloudy sky setting.

Trivia

  • The spirit battle for The Odyssey states as a condition that the enemy is difficult to launch. However, the game erroneously applies the "easy to launch" effect instead, as evidenced by the floatier launch physics associated with it, and the fact that in the short window before the effect activates, Jigglypuff takes less knockback. This error also defeats the intended purpose of the battle, where the opponent is expected to break Jigglypuff's shield, as it is easy to KO it with knockback.
  • None of the Mario spirit battles currently feature Dr. Mario or Piranha Plant as puppet fighters, making the Mario series one of three playable universes to not feature all playable characters from the series in their spirit battles, with the other two being Final Fantasy and Fatal Fury.
  • Prior to the 1.1.0 update, King Boo was ordered between Poltergust 5000 and Polterpup rather than being ordered right after Boo.
    • Additionally, the ordering of Antasma and Papercraft Mario was swapped.
  • Not counting the Mario sub-universes, Link (in the Master Cycle) is the only character to be included with another series’ spirits other than their own.
    • It also marks the first time his Skyward Sword design is ever directly referenced in Smash, due to this version of him being the basis for him in Mario Kart 8.
  • The Golden Dash Mushroom, Dice Block, and River Survival spirits were the first Downloadable content spirits tied to a limited-time event on the Spirit Board, and also the first DLC spirits available without the requirement of an additional game, as the Partner Eevee and Partner Pikachu spirits originally required save data of Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee!/Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! on the Nintendo Switch.
  • Although the name of the Golden Dash Mushroom spirit originates from Mario Party: Island Tour, its spirit battle and artwork are derived from the Mario Kart series, where the item is generally referred to as the Golden Mushroom. However, the item has been referred to as the Golden Dash Mushroom in Europe as of Mario Kart 7.
    • The Golden Dash Mushroom spirit's series is generically listed as the “Super Mario Series” instead of the two series mentioned above.
    • The Golden Dash Mushroom spirit's effect is dissimilar to its effect in either series; it turns the player giant, making it closer to the Mega Mushroom.
  • Barrel Train is the only Mario Kart spirit not to be fought on either Figure-8 Circuit or Mario Circuit.
  • The Flies and Hand spirit is listed as part of the "Mario Paint Series", although Mario Paint does not have any sequels (excluding the Satellaview re-releases Mario Paint BS Ban and Mario Paint Yuushou Naizou Ban). Super Mario Maker takes many elements from Paint, including the Flies and Hand, and began development as a sequel, but is not considered as such.
    • There is, however, a set of Mario Paint spiritual successors called Mario Artist on the Nintendo 64DD, but the 4 released installments of the series do not feature the Flies and Hand in any form either.
  • Similarly, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is considered a "Series", despite only being a singular game outside of re-releases.
  • The Flies and Hand spirit is also the only Mario spirit to use a render made specifically for Ultimate.
  • Despite the Dice Block and River Survival originating from Mario Party series, their spirits' series is listed as the "Super Mario Series". This is despite the MC Ballyhoo & Big Top spirit's series being listed as the "Mario Party Series".
  • Spirits of Waluigi, Baby Peach and Wanda are generically listed as the "Super Mario Series", despite not debuting in a mainline Super Mario game outside of cameos.
  • Rabbid Kong's spirit actually depicts a corrupted, alternate form named Mega Rabbid Kong, appearing only in the Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle: Donkey Kong Adventure expansion DLC.
  • Mario Tennis Aces was singled out rather than summarized as Mario Tennis series like any other series.
    • A similar situation would also happen with the spirits hailing from Mario Golf: Super Rush, whose series is only listed as said game rather than "Mario Golf Series", despite the Kid spirit being labeled with the latter.
  • Despite appearing dynamically in the New Donk City Hall stage, the four musicians of the New Donk City Band do not appear as spirits. Similarly, the Shellcreepers from Mario Bros. and the Buzzy Beetles from Mushroom Kingdom do not appear as spirits either.
  • Super Mario, The Legend of Zelda, EarthBound, Ice Climber and Pac-Man are the only series represented by a fighter to use in-game sprite art for their spirits.
  • Metal Mario, Eggplant Man, Rabbid Peach, Rabbid Mario, Rabbid Kong, and Peach (Mario Golf: Super Rush) are the only Mario spirits whose spirit battles do not play music from the Mario universe.
  • Super Mario currently features the most amount of new spirits added through spirit events, with 13.
