Because I wanted to change it and no one can stop me!!!!
I just added it up. Thank you.
While we're on the topic of submitting spirits I just want to mention the formatting of spirit posts. Right now the way that the inforamtion for a spirit battle is displayed varies depending on the submitter, so its not very cohesive, and some are missing information or use inconsistent language to describe the same things. This is the format I use and Venus has encouraged others to adopt it as well.
For Example: (This is a spirit I submitted already so it doesn't need to be added again)

Here are some resources that I use when making my spirits that helps with keeping the skills they have accurate, as well as not creating a spirit thats already in the game.
Primary spirit
Primary spirits are a type of spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. A spirit team can include only a single primary spirit, and must include a primary spirit in order to have any support spirits. Primary spirits have one of four types: Attack ,...www.ssbwiki.com
I use this one to see which traits come alongside primary spirits
Support spirit
Support spirits are a type of spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. A spirit team can include up to three support spirits, depending on the number of slots provided by the primary spirit and the number of slots occupied by each support...
I use this to see which effects can be given by support spirits.
Conditions
Conditions are a mechanic in the Spirits mode and Adventure Mode: World of Light in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Each Spirit Battle contains one or more special conditions themed around the opposing spirit that the player is facing. There are many...
I use this to see what the in game text is for certain conditions.
I've also found that the Mario wiki has the most viewable list of already existing spirits, with the spirit battle details alongside it for inspiration.
I think that using the Wikia and the already existing google sheets will work going forward. Another thing to think about if we're regulating spirit submissions is that right now quite a few spirits use in the game sprite as their spirit art. There is precedent in Smash Ultimate for this happening with the Mother, Ice Climber, and Pac-Man series using in game sprites but usually if there's no official art of the character then its likely that they're not the kind of character who would get a spirit.
Personally I think R.O.B. is an exception and should be the only real world spirit since he's a fighter.
Idk what count as "Indie" character, are we counting game that is published by distributing company and is made by a doujin developer count as an indie?
it says it has to be 1st party though.I have an idea for a Halloween/horror themed submission, though the gameplay concept I had in mind for them may overlap a little with Pyra and Mythra...

Oh.
Jill Valentine in my case lol. I see we're on the same boat.
Alright, now for the 1st party bossJob 58
3rd party boss - Kamoshida(Persona 5)
The stage will be one designed around his boss fight from Persona 5, which originates from his temple. The song would be Last Surprise
The fight starts with the characters walking into the temple and seeing Shadow Kamoshida standing there. He then says the lines "I'm a demon who rules this world" and "I'm allowed to do whatever I want", which are lines he says before his boss fight starts in the game before transforming into boss form as seen above.
His attacks will be:
Volleyball assault - He summons a bunch of shadow people to launch volleyballs at the player
Tongue Whip - Kamoshida whips his tongue low across the stage. The attack has some power to it but can be jumped
Gold Medal Spike - A volleyball forms above his head and Kamoshida spikes it as the player. Does good damage and knockback
After getting him to half damage he'll scream the line
"You're the only ones who don't respect me!"
His form will not change but he will gain the bolded attack
Special conditions of the fight:
He has hit boxes everywhere but in between attacks every so often he'll stop and eat from his trophy, healing himself. If you KO the trophy then he won't be able to heal anymore and the fight will continue.
His crown also has a special hitbox. If it takes enough damage it will fall off his head, leaving him vulnerable for a period of time
I'll come back to do the first party boss later
oh just realised who i'm gonna do now
I also missed that it had to be first party. I was also going to push for Jill too lol. Maybe we should reset the poll? It feels like a lot of people didn't notice that.
Sure, that could count.
Yes, please reset the poll.
well it's a Nintendo game, most of the content would be Nintendo content
To be fair, there really are never many 3rd party newcomers in the base game. There were two in brawl, two in Wii U/3DS, and three in Ultimate (Indluing echos). Most of the big 3rd party newcomers are saved for DLC, likely because I assume its easier to make a deal in regards to splitting the profits. If we included nothing but big 3rd parties, it would seem just too unrealistic.
I wouldn't go as far as to call it an "obsession" ._.

Would Death Egg Robo qualify? It's certainly not a monstrous kind of villain, which I believe was the main requirement.Job #58: Boss Battles

Game of Origin: Pokémon Gold and Pokémon Silver (1999)
What does the boss do?
The sound design for Ho-Oh's attacks resembles that of traditional Japanese instruments.
- Ancient Power: Indicated by 水 (water), Ho-Oh summons an array of small rocks covered in scalding water, and tosses them down all at once wherever the player is, in a large area (15%, OK knockback)
- Whirlwind: Indicated by 風 (wind), Ho-Oh fiercely blows away the player to the side opposite to itself.
- Punishment: Ho-Oh glows in a rainbow-like gleam. However, it is baiting you to see if you attack it. If attacked (indicated by 罰 (punishment)), it counters with a two-wing slash. The power and knockback depend on the power of the previous attack.
- Extrasensory: Indicated by 奇数 (odd), Ho-Oh fires a ball of psychic energy that homes in on the player, and explodes in a moderate area (13%, OK knockback)
- Flame Charge: Indicated by 充電 (charge), Ho-Oh dashes to the other side, coated in flames (18%-22%, OK knockback)
- Fire Blast: Indicated by 爆発 (blast), Ho-Oh shoots a ball of fire out of its mouth. Upon explosion (20%-25%, medium knockback), it forms a 大 shape.
- Steel Wing: Indicated by 剣 (sword), Ho-Oh speeds forward in the blink of an eye, and slashes the player on the spot, almost like a katana (33%, far knockback)
- Brave Bird: Indicated by 空 (sky), Ho-Oh sacrifices a small bit of health to charge straight towards the screen (24%, medium knockback). The move is similar to Ridley’s background attack from Brawl.
- Sunny Day: Indicated by 日 (sun), Ho-Oh sends out a mini-sun when its health falls below half, which slightly boosts the power of its fire-based attacks.
- Solar Beam: Indicated by 日 (sun), Ho-Oh’s eyes glow as the mini-sun behind it aims a bright light at the player. After a few seconds, a huge ray of sunlight fires wherever the player is (30%, far knockback)
- Sacred Fire: Indicated by 火事 (fire), Ho-Oh flies into the background and creates a spiral of fire from the center of the arena, just like in Melee and Brawl (43%, far knockback)
Setting/Intro: A rainy arena near the top of Bell Tower, where it was fought in its original game. After a feather flutters, Ho-Oh appears from a giant light and appears to the right of the arena.
Defeat: Ho-Oh slowly dissipates into glimmers of light.

Music: Battle! (Ho-Oh)
Game of Origin: Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (1992)
What does the boss do?
Piloting the Death Egg Robot, Eggman can be attacked even if the robot's claws are still up, but he will retaliate before you can wail on him for too long. The Death Egg Robot's size and design is based on its appearance in Sonic Mania.
When Eggman is facing the opposite direction, the player can attack the DER's black rear and stun Eggman with a powerful attack; the stun period lasts about the same as other bosses with this.
- Egg Bomb: Aiming for 3 seconds, Eggman will send a small bomb with the Eggman emblem if the player is far away; it explodes in a small area (20%, medium knockback); when he's below health, Eggman sends out three bombs
- Egg Claw: Aiming for 3 seconds, Eggman extends the DER's claw (13%, OK knockback), with the arm around briefly able to be used as a platform
- Rocket Claw: Aiming for 3 seconds, Eggman shoots the DER's claw like a rocket at the player (15%, OK knockback)
- Jump: Eggman briefly hops to the other side of the arena (13%, OK knockback)
- Crash Jump: Eggman flies to the top of the screen for 3 seconds while locking onto the player, then crashes down (26%, medium knockback); which way he faces when he lands is based on the direction the player faces during the 3-second aiming sequence
- Stomp: Eggman stomps the player if they get too close (20%), burying them
- Electric Shield: Eggman raises an electric shield around the body of the Death Egg Robot (10%, small knockback)
- Egg Claw Scratch: Whenever the player gets too close and he looks like he's doing nothing, Eggman attacks by briefly raising a claw hand (7%, OK knockback)
The sound design for the Death Egg Robot's attacks resembles the Genesis Sonic games; specifically, Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
Setting/Intro: The Death Egg, the iconic arena for the final battle of Sonic the Hedgehog 2; loosely based on its appearance in Sonic Generations. The intro is a mix of its intros in both games.
Defeat: The Death Egg Robot malfunctions and topples over, with Eggman quickly retreating in his Egg Mobile.

Litwick could make a cool addition.
Venus mentioned Galleom in the job description, so I guess "monstrous" in the sense of being big enough to quailfy? That said:
Venus, you kinda misspelled "Galleom".
Venus of the Desert Bloom
Would DJ Octavio in his octobot work as a boss for this prompt? I'm not sure if monstrous means reptilian and non humanoid, or big and works better as a boss than a fighter. Porky was a boss in Brawl, so DJ Octavio would be a similar sort of character.
I'm a little confused on the new system. So Spirits can be promoted, but we still have to put them off to add them? Or is it just trying to get people on your side to get them added?I will be adding these stage changes to the front post over the week.
I am also restructuring the way we go about doing Spirits which will hopefully fix some issues that with their submissions. This change will be implemented following our current Spirit Event. That being said, I do have an important announcement.
The Character Protection process is no more
Characters no longer need to be protected from being made into Spirits or another content like Assist Trophies, Pokéballs, costumes, etc. However, and this is important, any content featured on this post is considered locked into the game since it’s already appeared to the public. I will announce the content that’s set to be revealed prior to a Direct and you can make a request to remove a character content from the presentation:
You must do the following:
1) Ping me
2) explain your intention with this character
3) Explain why the character deserves not being made into a Spirit or related content
4) Submit suitable replacement. For example, say if we make Chun-li a Mii costume but someone wants to use her as fighter, then the person must provide a suitable replacement costume from Street Fighter. This also includes Spirits with the replacement spirit having to be from the same game.
Once these are provided, I will consult with the deputy director, @Smashing Ramen and an unaffiliated team member on if the character warrants being delayed. This means that they won’t appear in the planned reveal but, rather, will appear in the final content trailer prior to launch. That gives you sometime to get support and champion this character if you want them to be playable.
Second order of business, please consider helping out the wiki! We’ve been here at work seeing it up but it still needs more work!
Finally, with Medusa and our second Echo confirmed it’s time we look to our next newcomer who will be revealed in an October direct! This job will be a bit different as we will first vote on which prompt to use. This will be a precursor to several future jobs where you get to major up the prompt! Poll will go up shortly after this.
my takeaway from it was that spirits can be promoted, but only before they're officially revealed
