The following is the list of the spirits from the R.O.B. series in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Uniquely, these spirits are real-life photographs of R.O.B. and its peripherals, as seen in promotional materials for the North American releases of Stack-Up and Gyromite.

Stack-Up/Gyromite Spirit Battle inspiration:
  • The cyan R.O.B.'s down special, Gyro is based on the spinning gyros used in Gyromite, which requires the real-life R.O.B. accessory to play.
  • The cyan Giant R.O.B. and the stage reference how R.O.B. is a real-life video game peripheral required to play Gyromite.

Other trivia:
  • This spirit's Back Shield Equipped ability references R.O.B.'s usage of Gyro, where charging it will leave his back exposed to attacks.

Trivia[edit]

  • R.O.B., EarthBound, and Pikmin are the only series represented by a fighter to use photographs for their spirits.
  • The R.O.B. series is tied with the Duck Hunt series for the fewest spirits of series represented by a fighter, with a total of three each.
    • R.O.B. and Ice Climber are the only series represented by fighters that do not have any primary spirits associated with them.
    • R.O.B. is the universe represented by a fighter with the smallest number of spirit battles assigned, with only one.
      • The Final Fantasy series initially held all three of these distinctions, only having two spirits with no spirit battles (due to both of them being Fighter spirits), until the release of new Final Fantasy spirits in version 10.1.0 that released alongside Sephiroth.
  • The R.O.B. and Wii Fit universes are the only universes whose spirit battles never contain fighters outside of their series.
  • All of the R.O.B universe's spirits use R.O.B.'s international gray color scheme regardless of region, rather than changing to its red and white color scheme in the Japanese version (excluding the alternate artwork for R.O.B.'s fighter spirit).
