In an effort to cause the kind of global mayhem he has always dreamed of, the evil Plankton has set in motion his most diabolical plot ever to take over the world in '''''SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom''''' . The fate of Bikini Bottom has been put in the hands (or small tentacles) of three unsuspecting heroes. Put your platform skills to the test as SpongeBob, Patrick, or Sandy Cheeks, with an array of insane new maneuvers and power-ups at your disposal. Explore a huge 3D world, encounter familiar friends, and finally put an end to Plankton's evil scheme.

Translucent red flat planes appear on the ground in many areas /w IR >1x. This minor graphical glitch doesn't affect game play. This effect can be fixed by disabling Scaled EFB Copy. If playing at higher resolutions, enable Vertex Rounding. Resolved by enabling Vertex Rounding in {{revision|5.0-14810}}.

{{image|SpongeBob SquarePants Battle for Bikini Bottom.png|Blue Box|br}} Resolved in {{revision|5.0-14810}} by adding a patch to all versions of the game that fix the offset rendering.
 
To remove the box at higher resolutions, use this AR code, though content inside the box will still render at x1 resolution:
