{{Quote|Can't help but feel sorry for ya.|Dark Pit|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U}}

'''Dark Pit''' (sometimes called '''Pittoo''' by some characters) is an imperfect, opposite clone of [[Pit]] created after the destruction of the [[icaruspedia:Mirror of Truth|Mirror of Truth]], in the events of ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. He serves as an anti-hero, being somewhat of a rival to Pit. Compared to Pit's, his personality is more serious and aggressive, rejecting the idea of being a servant to anyone. His appearance is identical to Pit's, except with the dark coloring to his clothing, wings and hair. His character was most likely based off the "fallen angel" coloration of Pit in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', as both ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' were made by [[Sora Ltd.]]

==History==
===''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U''===
[[File:Palutena Group.jpg|thumb|left|100px|In Palutena's promotional artwork, Dark Pit can be seen flying in the background.]]
Dark Pit makes an appearance as an unlockable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'', Dark Pit can be unlocked by playing 50 Smash matches or clearing Classic with three different characters and then defeating him on [[Reset Bomb Forest]], while in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', he is unlocked by playing 40 matches or clearing All-Star on Normal difficulty, then defeating him on [[Palutena's Temple]]. He was originally planned to be an alternate costume for Pit, but was made a full character after he began to receive balancing differences to give him distinct records<ref>Soma (July 9, 2015). [http://sourcegaming.info/2015/07/09/i-answer-some-questions-sakurai-famitsu-column-vol-461-464/ “I Answer Some Questions,” Sakurai Famitsu column vol. 461-464, on Ice Climbers, clones, and Smash Run]. Source Gaming. Retrieved September 7, 2016.</ref>; [[Masahiro Sakurai]] also thought it would be odd for him to wield the [[Three Sacred Treasures]], and the team had already modeled the Electroshock Arm<ref>Reiner, Andrew (February 18, 2015). [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2015/02/18/masahiro-sakurai-s-super-smash-bros-diaries.aspx?PostPageIndex=4j Masahiro Sakurai's Super Smash Bros. Diaries]. Game Informer. Retrieved January 9, 2016.</ref>. Dark Pit is the only newcomer who did not have a reveal trailer; his inclusion in the game was instead hinted at the end of [[Palutena]]'s trailer. Like in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', Dark Pit shares his voice actors with Pit, who also reprise their roles for this game: Antony Del Rio in English and Minami Takayama in Japanese.

Most of Dark Pit's attributes are identical to Pit's, though there are a few moveset differences. His neutral special is the [[Silver Bow]], which lets him fire a controllable arrow like Pit's [[Palutena's Arrow]], and his side special is the [[Electroshock Arm]], which lets him charge forward and uppercut opponents with an electric attack. His up and down special moves, [[Power of Flight]] and [[Guardian Orbitars]] respectively, are identical to Pit's moves; the former gives Dark Pit a quick burst of flight, while the latter lets Dark Pit defend himself with a pair of shields. His Final Smash is the [[Dark Pit Staff]], in which he fires the staff to deal high damage and knockback to opponents.

Dark Pit has a distinct victory theme from the other ''Kid Icarus'' characters, being a brief excerpt of Dark Pit's Theme from ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. He also has a special victory quote that sometimes plays if Pit is in the match.

===''Super Mario Maker''===
Dark Pit can be unlocked as a [[Costume Mario]] costume in ''[[Super Mario Maker]]''. His sprite is identical to Pit's sprite, but using Dark Pit's colors. While the transformation and jump sounds as well as the course clear song are taken from the Famicom Disk System of ''Kid Icarus'', his death song is taken from the game over theme of ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''.

====[[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations|Palutena's Guidance]]====
*'''Pit''': Hey! It's Pittoo!
*'''Dark Pit''': Will you quit calling me that?!
*'''Palutena''': Now where did you disappear to after the fight with Hades?
*'''Viridi''': Actually, Dark Pit works for me now. He's an officer in the Forces of Nature.
*'''Palutena''': What?!
*'''Pit''': No way!
*'''Viridi''': Just because we fought together once doesn't mean we're all buddy-buddy now. In fact, the Lightning Chariot and [[Phosphora]] are also both under my command. The battle isn't over yet!
*'''Dark Pit''': Viridi's interests and mine just happen to overlap, so for this fight, I'll be happy to launch you into the stratosphere!
*'''Palutena''': Your powers are perfectly matched here.
*'''Viridi''': It all comes down to skill!
