Normal Form
Similar to Delfino Plaza and Skyloft, this stage takes players in a moving platform and stops at certain points of the island. When you reach a hanging bridge, quickly jump on it before the platform goes down. The transitions per location is quite fast so take note of the warning signs to anticipate the incoming transition.
One of the locations is a waterborne checkpoint. Players can fight on top of the checkpoint and they can use the floater in the middle as a stepping board. Be careful though since jetskiers will go through the checkpoint in a short while. Falling to the water doesn't instantly KO you, so you have enough time to swim back to the surface. Don't stay long, otherwise your character will drown and result to a KO. The other basics locations are a beach, a plaza fountain, a coastal arena, at the mouth of a volcano, and a cliff. The transition between them doesn't seem to be fixed.
Omega Form
The battle takes place in single floating platform with no hazards or transitions.
