Spirits that gained spirit battles

These spirits initially did not have spirit battles, and were only obtainable via Summon or by purchasing from shops in World of Light, but gained them through updates and DLC. Spirits that gained battles after the release of a specific DLC fighter require that fighter's Challenger Pack in order to partake in their battle.

No.	Image	Name	Series	DLC required
971		Poppi α	Xenoblade Chronicles Series	Challenger Pack 9
1,134		Tank & Infantry	Famicom Wars Series	None (originally exclusive to the The More the Merrier Spirit Board event, but battle can be rematched at any time from version 8.0.0 onward)
1,288		Ribbon Girl	ARMS	Challenger Pack 6
1,291		Ninjara

Trivia

• Prior to version 8.0.0, the Ryo Sakazaki spirit battle did not use the Mii Costume, even if it was downloaded.
• Although there are corresponding Mii outfits, some spirit battles have not changed at least one of their fighters to match said Mii outfit. These include the Tails, MegaMan.EXE, Zero, X, Rex, Squid Sisters, Veronica (in the Hero's Comrades spirit), Bomberman, Akira, Iori Yagami, Nakoruru, Geno, and Shantae battles.
  • If sole headgear is counted, then this applies to Morgana, Slime, Rabbids and Octolings as well.
• Rex, Tora, and Mòrag are the only spirits in World of Light to have their battles affected by DLC.
