'''{{St|Spear Pillar}}''' is also an unlockable stage in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. Players can unlock the stage by completing Event 25: The Aura Is With Me. The background of the stage will feature either {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, or strangely {{p|Cresselia}}, who will occasionally do things to affect the stage such as tilting it diagonally or breaking one section of the top platform; Dialga slows time, Palkia flips or reverses the view, and Cresselia randomly attacks with flying crescents. The [[lake guardians]] will also make short cameo appearances when something happens to the stage.

The stage's default music is "{{ho|Victory Road}}" from {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. Other pieces of background music are "Dialga / Palkia Battle at Spear Pillar!," "Wild Pokémon Battle! (Diamond / Pearl)," "[[Team Galactic]] Battle!," and "{{rt|209|Sinnoh}}."

At some point Dialga, Palkia, and Cresselia will affect the stage, each with different effects to the field. Dialga appears when the sky has a blue hue, Palkia appears when the sky has a purple hue, and Cresselia appears when the sky is clear.

Large part of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} focused on Team Galactic searching for the gateway to the Spear Pillar, located somewhere on Mt. Coronet. They finally discovered it in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]''. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', they used the [[Spear Key]] and a fragment of the Red Chain to unlock the gateway. At the Spear Pillar, Cyrus used the {{an|lake guardians}} and the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs to summon Dialga and Palkia, which he then took control of with the Red Chain. {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Cynthia]] arrived to stop them, defeating Team Galactic's Pokémon and freeing the lake guardians from Cyrus's control. Despite of this, Cyrus was still able to force Dialga and Palkia to start the creation of the new universe. Cynthia realized that the only way to stop the creation was to destroy the Red Chains controlling the Legendary Pokémon. {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, and {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} launched a combination attack on the Legendaries, but Cyrus has Dialga and Palkia to strike back with {{m|Roar of Time}} and {{m|Spacial Rend}}, respectively, blocking the attacks and almost hitting Ash and his friends, only to be saved by the lake guardians' combined {{m|Protect}}. The next combination succeeded in breaking the Red Chains, and the creation of the new universe was stopped. Cyrus, amazed by the sight of his creation, stepped into the collapsing portal, disappearing into the depths of his own "perfect universe".
Although Dialga and Palkia were freed, their rage wasn't still gone, and attacked the collapsing portal, which started sucking the surrounding world into itself. With the help of Ash, {{an|Brock}}, and {{an|Dawn}}, the lake guardians were able to calm down the Legendary Pokémon of time and space and stop the vortex of destruction.
In the anime, instead of a plateau at the top of the mountain, the Spear Pillar was a void-like cave inside of Mt. Coronet. Its interiors shared a common look with the Mystri Stage at the [[Sinjoh Ruins]].

Spear Pillar is the location of the final battle of {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}.
Spear Pillar is the location of the final battle of {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}. After the creation of the second Red Chain being foiled by {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}}, Cyrus was left with no choice but to create an artificial one to replace it. Once arriving at the Spear Pillar, he told [[Saturn]], Mars, and Jupiter to keep anyone from entering while he was completing the seremory. Soon after this, the Sinnoh [[Gym Leader]]s arrived at the Spear Pillar via [[the Underground]], thanks to [[Byron]] and the [[Underground Man]], and started battling against the Team Galactic Commanders. Meanwhile, Cyrus managed to use the Red Chains to summon Dialga and Palkia, and forced them to fight each other in order to wipe out the old world and create a new universe in its place.
 
With extreme effort, the Gym Leaders managed to defeat the Galactic Commanders. However, the distortions in space and time caused by Dialga and Palkia's fight made it impossible for them to reach the stairs leading to Cyrus. Figuring another way to get to the Galactic Boss, the Gym Leaders once again made their way through the Underground, and attacked the Red Chains controlling the Legendary Pokémon. Ignoring the attacks from Cyrus's Pokémon, the Gym Leaders' Pokémon managed to break the artificial chain, halving Cyrus's control over the Temporal and Spatial Pokémon. Despite this, the fight between the two Legendaries went on, causing more and more wide-spreading distortions in time and space all across Sinnoh. Eventually, thanks to the combined efforts of the three [[Pokédex holder]]s and their Pokémon, the second Red Chain was also destroyed and the fight was finally stopped, preventing the new universe from being born.
 
Just when everything seemed to be calming down, [[Charon]] appeared, revealing that the hole created by the battle wasn't the seed of a new universe, but a portal to [[Distortion World|another world]]. Suddenly, {{p|Giratina|mysterious tentacles}} appeared from the portal, and sucked Cyrus, Dialga, and Palkia into it. Charon managed to escape with a smoke bomb distraction, but Diamond's {{DL|Diamond (Adventures)|Kit}} managed to snatch his notebook before he got away.

* The Temporal Pinnacle, at the peak of [[Temporal Tower]], in {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}, bears resemblance to the Spear Pillar, likely due to the connection both have to Dialga.

* Despite the fact that it is higher up than the snowy areas of Mt. Coronet, there is no snow on the Spear Pillar itself. The rest of Mt. Coronet cannot be seen, either. In this case, as the anime has shown, the Spear Pillar is likely to be above the level of the clouds that dump the snow on the lower levels of the mountain.

If the Adamant Orb is with the player in any manner, Dialga will always appear first, no matter if the Lustrous Orb is also with the player or not.
