List of CPU Modes

^There's a number of Melee CPU modes on the wiki not listed here: ITEM (CPU Mode), EVZELDA, SPLWLINK, ONLYITEM, FREAK, NOACT, SPLWSAMUS, STRUGGLE, NONE, AIR, COOPERATIVE and DEFENSIVE.

CPU Modes are different sets of AI behaviors used by computer players in different games throughout the series. Several are intended for use in Training Mode, while other actions can only be seen performed in various Melee event matches. A few modes are only accessible through the use of Melee's debug menu.

Name	Description	Availability	Debug Name (Melee)
Stand (Super Smash Bros.,  Melee) Stop (Brawl, 3DS/WiiU)	The CPU will not move and will not make any inputs to defend itself or upon getting hit, barring some exceptions: It will still attempt to recover if hit away from the stage, use a standard floor recovery after being knocked down (in Super Smash Bros., the CPU will always wait until the maximum length, then use a floor attack), use a ledge jump edge recovery when hanging onto a ledge, and jump off of revival platforms. When put to sleep in Super Smash Bros., it will attack nearby foes right after the sleep ends. When put in an egg in Super Smash Bros., it will use an air attack after breaking out, even if no one is nearby. In Super Smash Bros.Melee CPU Zeldas will use transform periodically. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, CPUs will participate in the WarioWare, Inc.microgames.	Training Mode	CPTP_STAY
