In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate , if the game is connected to the internet, the Spirit Board will receive weekly events, each having their own theme. Spirits matching the specific theme are most likely to appear on the Spirit Board during this period, making it easier to obtain certain spirits . Every event has some sort of bonus with each spirit defeated. Very rarely, the event will also feature exclusive spirits, which can be then obtained by normal means in a later update.
Note: All the event names and times listed are according to the NTSC region.
