Trivia

  • Min Min is the first base game spirit character to become a DLC fighter.
  • Spring Man and Twintelle are the first DLC Spirit board spirits to appear in the World of Light and on the regular spirit board.
  • Ribbon Girl and Ninjara are the first spirits to gain spirit battles after being previously summon exclusive.
  • ARMS, F-Zero, Punch-Out, Persona, and Final Fantasy are the only series in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with a playable character where all current Spirits use artwork from the same game, respectively being ARMS, F-Zero GX, Punch-Out (Wii), Persona 5, and Ultimate, mainly due to Cloud not having any artwork from Final Fantasy VII to swap for his Ultimate artwork.
    • This is excluding Ice Climber and Game & Watch, which use sprites, and R.O.B, which uses real-life photographs.
