Nonetheless after realising that some spirits can only be obtained from challenges I'm starting to work on them all. In the Smash category of challenges I saw:

Beat a level 5 CPU in a 1v1 battle. Easy, right? Not so much if you consider the caveat: you must start with a 300% handicap, and your opponent must have a 0% handicap, and spirits off. (there's also a level 3 variant of this challenge)

That all sounds pretty intimidating, but it's actually pretty easy if you just cheese it like I did:


 * 1) Pick Boxing Ring (or any walk-off stage) as the stage
 * 2) Pick Samus or Dark Samus (or any other fighter with a ranged grab you can use well)
 * 3) Choose an opponent for the CPU that doesn't have much in the way of ranged projectiles or ranged attacks. Not tested very thoroughly, but I think that light characters are good opponents. I've beaten Ryu with this method, so you could probably choose him as your opponent
 * 4) Camp just outside the camera box (if you have the radar on, which you probably do, basically stand just outside the first box which shows the parts the camera is showing).
 * 5) Wait for your opponent to come around, face towards the stage and grab them
 * 6) Do a back throw. If you do it correctly this will KO the opponent, but if you fail to KO, don't worry and grab again facing left this time with a forward throw
 * 7) Repeat until you win. It may be useful to practice this in Training mode, however, until you are confident you can beat the CPU this way

This also works really well on level 9 CPUs, provided that you can learn their behavior. They won't always walk blindly into your range and get grabbed to KO in one blow, but if you stand in a good spot you can KO them multiple times in a row with the grabs. As such you can use this to beat many of the "beat level 9 CPUs with XXX" challenges

I’ve actually did it in Final Destination with King DDD.......

By knocking Little Mac off stage, as his recovery is THAT bad, it’s not actually that hard
