After the "Challenger Approaching!" screen, the unlockable character will then be fought in an ordinary one stock match with no time limit, on a [[Home stage|predetermined stage]] with predetermined music. The AI difficulty of the duel depends on the game, usually at low difficulty for the first fighter, then it gradually increases with every fighter unlocked, however, it is reversed in ''Melee'', and always high in the Wii U version of ''Smash 4''. The player uses the last character played as, including the last used [[alternate costume|costume]]. In the case of multiplayer battles, in the first three ''Smash'' games, the player who won the match will fight the challenger; if a CPU wins the match, the challenger will not appear. ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' changed this formula such that if a CPU wins the match, then the human-controlled player with the highest rank will battle the challenger.

By defeating the opponent, the character becomes playable. If the player fails, they will not unlock the character. In ''Melee'', ''Brawl'', and ''Smash 4'', if the Vs. match requirement is met, or if the other unlock requirement is cumulative (such as with {{SSBM|Mewtwo}} in ''Melee'', the unlockable character's encounter will reappear upon the next game played. If the other unlock requiremnt requires completing a run of a single-player mode (such as {{SSBM|Falco}} in ''Melee'', the mode must be completed again to challenge the character again after failure. In ''Ultimate'', failed battles against unlockable characters are moved to a separate [[Challenger's Approach]] mode.

The "Challenger Approaching!" screen has become somewhat of a meme in the ''Smash'' community. Many digitally manipulated versions of these screens have appeared, often featuring characters who do not appear in the games, mostly using artwork of the character from another game instead of original artwork (which gives away its falseness). The screens became so popular that they were featured as part of the [[DOJO!!]]; in earlier updates, whenever a new character was introduced, a banner that said "Warning! Challenger Approaching!" would appear above the entry.
