Legendary Pokémon (伝説のポケモンたち, Us Legendary Pokémon) is the 37th event match of the 51 event matches in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Completing this match is one of the means of unlocking Pichu.

In this event, a player must defeat four giant Wire Frames and a red Jigglypuff on Battlefield. Each has two stocks. The only item that will appear is the Poké Ball. Every Poké Ball holds either a legendary Pokémon or a Wobbuffet. The Wire Frames do not care for the Poké Balls and will simply focus on attacking the player. By contrast, the Jigglypuff will attempt to collect and use all the Poké Balls and avoid the player as much as possible, not attacking outside throwing the balls, floor recovery attacks after tumbling and hitting the platform if the player comes near or using a neutral attack from failing to pick one up.

While the Wire Frames are the main opponent, they are not the dangerous one, with a low AI level and weak knockback for their size. The Jigglypuff is arguably the only threat, as an unlucky legendary Pokémon appearance can KO players in almost an instant, whereas once the Jigglypuff is out of the picture the player should have no trouble collecting Poké Balls and keeping the Wire Frames trapped in wide-range long-lasting attacks.

The concept of Poké Balls which almost always hold a Legendary Pokémon would be revived in Super Smash Bros. 4 with the Master Ball item, which functions similarly to this event's Poké Balls.

Trivia

  • During the battle, the music for Poké Floats plays, which normally does not play on Battlefield.
  • Unusually, the Fighting Wire Frames in this Event Match can be both Star KO'd and Screen KO'd, which does not occur in any other mode where the player has to fight them.
  • If playing as Peach and she pulls out a Beam Sword via Vegetable and throws it to the ground without the item disappearing very close to the Poké Ball, Jigglypuff will unintentionally pick up a Beam Sword and will never attack using the Beam Sword or throw it, even if the Poké Balls appear.
  • There is a glitch that occurs in this event match. If Ganondorf uses his Dark Dive to hit the Fighting Wire Frames, it will do only one hit instead of doing multiple hits, similarly to Captain Falcon's Falcon Dive. This is shown here. It appears to be an animation oddity where Dark Dive's repeating hitbox does not reach the Wire Frame's hurtbox.
