Gaur Plain is a stage introduced in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U. It originally appeared in Xenoblade Chronicles.

Overview

Gaur Plains appears to be a large stage, with two sloping platforms and a gap in the middle.

Differences beetwen versions

The Wii U version is bigger and has more platforms than the 3DS version. In the Wii U version only, Metal Face will appear at nighttime and attack the characters with slashes, and destroy some platforms with a laser shot. He can be KO'd, though.

Origin

Gaur Plain made its first apperance in Xenoblade Chronicles for the Wii. Gaur Plain is a location on the Bionis Leg. This stage can change from night to day reflecting a gameplay element from Xenoblade Chronicles. Metal Face is a Mechon that is seen throughout the journey in Xenoblade Chronicles. In the background, you can see parts of the Bionis Leg and in the distance the Mechonis, home of the Mechon.

Trivia

• This is one of the few stages that influence Final Smashes. Ike will never jump to the middle when using Great Aether on this stage, and Olimar will land on the left (or right) platform when using End of Day. This is due to there being a pit in the center, which would lead to a SD for Ike and Olimar.
• This is one of the 9 stages in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U that does not appear in the Classic Mode for the game, the other 8 being Jungle Hijinxs, 75m, Temple, The Great Cave Offensive, Flat Zone X, Palutena's Temple, Boxing Ring, and the Miiverse stage.
• Despite being called Gaur Plain, the location is not actually the real Gaur Plain. Gaur Plain can be seen in the background of the stage, while the fighting zone is actually on the landforms above Viliera Hill.
• The landforms that are fought on are actually inaccessible in Xenoblade Chronicles, and are also much larger and further apart.
