'''Pit''', also known as '''Kid Icarus''' on occasion, is a young angel who is the main protagonist of the ''[[Icaruspedia:Kid Icarus (series)|Kid Icarus]]'' series, and the captain of [[Palutena]]'s [[Palutena's Army|army]]. His most notable appearance alongside ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise characters, however, is in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|''Super Smash Bros.'' series]].

{{main-external|SmashWiki|Pit (SSBB)}}
[[File:Pit SSBB.png|frame|left]]
Pit appears as a new fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Pit's design has been significantly altered from his design in the two ''Kid Icarus'' games before, based on [[Masahiro Sakurai]]'s interpretation of what Pit would look like if the ''Kid Icarus'' series had continued after ''Of Myths and Monsters''.<ref>"In bringing [Pit] to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, I [Masahiro Sakurai] designed him imagining, 'if the series had continued and he had evolved with it over these long years, what kind of character would he be?'" [http://www.ssbwiki.com/images/a/af/UprisingSakuraiEmail.png Promotional e-mail from Nintendo] for ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. SmashWiki. Retrieved September 6, 2015.</ref> Pit is voiced by Minami Takayama in the Japanese version, and [[Lani Minella]] in the English version.

Pit carries the Sacred Bow of Palutena, which can fire arrows or split into two blades for up close combat. Because of his wings he is able to jump multiple times, and can also [[glide]]. Pit's standard special move in this game is [[#Palutena Bow|Palutena's Arrow]], which lets him shoot an arrow that can be directed as it flies. His side special move is called [[#Angel Ring|Angel Ring]], which is an attack that spins his bow and deflects projectiles. Pit's down special move is the [[#Mirror Shield|Mirror Shield]], which allows him to reflect any attacks from the front. Finally, his up special move is the [[#Wings of Icarus|Wings of Icarus]], which allows him to briefly fly. Pit's Final Smash, [[#Palutena's Army|Palutena's Army]], summons [[icaruspedia:Centurion|Centurions]] to attack opponents.

=====The Subspace Emissary=====
[[File:SubspaceIntro-Pit.png|200px|thumb|left|upright=1.1|Pit's snapshot in the Subspace Emissary]]
In the Subspace Emissary of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Pit joins the story early in the game. He was watching the fight between [[Mario]] and [[Kirby]] at [[Midair Stadium]] when he sees the devastation of the [[Subspace Army]]'s [[Subspace Bomb]], and is sent by [[Palutena]] to go assist the other heroes in defeating the Subspace Army. Palutena gives him the Palutena's Bow. He hurries down to the world, so he can help the other defeat the Subspace Army. He lands on a spot near the [[Halberd]], and has to fight [[Primid]]s and other Subspace enemies that are appearing. He also finds [[Mario]], transformed into a trophy. He awakens him and the two team up. They soon witness [[Fox McCloud]]'s [[Arwing]] chasing after Halberd.

Upon reaching solid ground, they find the [[Ancient Minister]] carrying another Subspace Bomb, but they were unable to reach him, and he gets away. What happens next depends on which princess was rescued.

[[File:MarioPitLinkTrophy.png|thumb|upright=1.1|left|Pit and [[Mario]] after defeating [[Link]] and [[Yoshi]]]]
If [[Princess Zelda]] was rescued, Pit destroys the [[Dark Cannon]] that [[False Zelda]] is about to fire at [[Link]] and [[Yoshi]], and subsequently fights her with Mario. They are then attacked by Link and Yoshi, who have mistaken False Zelda as the real Zelda. Otherwise, if [[Princess Peach]] was rescued instead, then Pit and Mario are instead targeted by [[False Peach]], who was defeated by Link and Yoshi. Pit and Mario then end up fighting them as well. In both variants, the outcome is similar; the team who defeated the fake princess also defeat the other team, who gets snatched up by [[King Dedede]]'s [[Cargo]]. However, [[Kirby]] arrives and revives the defeated team from their trophy forms. Then either Pit or Link blows out the Cargo's engine and all five go after Dedede.

Pit and the others track Dedede down to his castle, but upon entering, they find the throne room in ruins. They explore a nearby cave and eventually find [[Bowser]] getting away with the princess that wasn't rescued in the beginning. Pit fires an arrow Bowser, but this only causes a [[badge]] that the princess was wearing to fall off. Bowser escapes to the Halberd.

Pit and the others eventually find the Ancient Minister again, this time in [[the Wilds]]. After chasing him for a period of time, the [[R.O.B.]]s intervene and detonate the Subspace Bomb that the Minister had been carrying. Pit and the others escape from the blast and reach [[the Canyon]], where they fought hordes from the Subspace Army and meet other heroes. They were eventually joined by even more fighters before entering [[Subspace (SSB)|Subspace]], where they met defeat by [[Tabuu]].

Fortunately, King Dedede had designed badges (including the one Kirby ate) to revive fighters from their trophy forms after a set amount of time. With [[Luigi]] and [[Ness]] by his side, Dedede rescues Pit and most of the others, while Kirby saves the remainder of the team. They then explore [[the Great Maze]] before reaching Tabuu for their final battle.

====''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''====
[[File:Pit (shadowless) - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.png|thumb|Pit in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Pit (SSB4)}}
Pit returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'', though he is now voiced by Anthony Del Rio, his voice actor from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. While part of his moveset is the same as in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', such as Palutena's Arrow (now named Palutena Bow, as the weapon is known in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''), all of his other special moves as well as his [[Final Smash]] have been replaced, mostly to reflect his appearance in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. While Pit still has multiple jumps, the gliding mechanic has been removed entirely.

His side special has been changed to the [[#Upperdash Arm|Upperdash Arm]], in which Pit dashes forward to uppercut opponents, and his down special is the [[#Guardian Orbitars|Guardian Orbitars]], which puts up a pair of shields to defend Pit on both sides. His up special is the [[#Power of Flight|Power of Flight]], which gives Pit a brief burst of height. His Final Smash has been changed to the [[#Three Sacred Treasures|Three Sacred Treasures]], in which he dons the treasures and attacks with light arrows.

In addition, by quickly using Pit's down taunt on the [[Palutena's Temple]] stage in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'', it triggers his smash taunt, [[List of Palutena's Guidance conversations|Palutena's Guidance]], in which Pit, Palutena, and [[icaruspedia:Viridi|Viridi]] appear and talk about one of the opponents, similar to [[Solid Snake|Snake]]'s [[List of Snake's codec conversations|codecs]] in the previous game.

Pit returns in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', as an unlockable playable character, retaining his special moveset from the previous installment. He has a new Final Smash, where instead of wielding the Three Sacred Treasures, he rides in on the [[#Lightning Chariot|Lightning Chariot]]. [[Dark Pit]] is also specified as an Echo Fighter based on Pit in this game.<ref name=E32018Direct> Nintendo. (June 13, 2018).

====Special moves====
=====Palutena Bow=====
[[File:Pit Palutena Arrow Wii U.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Palutena Bow in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Palutena Bow}}
The '''[[icaruspedia:Palutena Bow|Palutena Bow]]''' (known as '''Palutena's Arrow''' in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''; also referred to as the '''Sacred Bow of Palutena'''<ref>[http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/pit.html Pit] on the Smash Bros. DOJO!! website.</ref> and '''Palutena's Bow''') is Pit's standard special move. Pit fires an arrow from the bow that can be controlled with the analog stick. The move can also be charged by holding down the special move button before firing, and can be aimed in either direction or directly up as it charges.

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' / ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U|Wii U]]'', this move has two custom variants. The first is '''Piercing Bow''' (named '''Bow of Piercing''' in the PAL version), which is more powerful but takes longer to charge, travels more slowly, and cannot be guided. The second is '''Guiding Bow''' (named '''Bow of Guidance''' in the PAL version), which gives greater control over the arrow but makes it less powerful.

[[Dark Pit]]'s version of this move is [[Dark Pit#Silver Bow|Silver Bow]].

=====Angel Ring=====
[[File:AngelRing.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|Angel Ring]]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Angel Ring}}
'''Angel Ring''' is Pit's side special move in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When used, Pit rapidly spins his bow to deal multiple hits to enemies, and can continue to attack by repeatedly pressing the special attack button. The move can also deflect projectile attacks.

{{main-external|SmashWiki|Upperdash Arm}}
The '''[[icaruspedia:Upperdash Arm|Upperdash Arm]]''' is an [[icaruspedia:Arm|Arm]] weapon from ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'' that appears as Pit's side special attack in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', replacing Angel Ring from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When used, Pit dashes forward and uppercuts any opponents in his path. The move can also deflect projectiles when executing the uppercut.

In ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', this move has two variants: '''Interception Arm''' and '''Quickdash Arm'''. Interception Arm turns the move into a counter move, allowing Pit to counterattack opponents with an uppercut when attacked. Quickdash Arm has a longer and faster dash which continues after dealing the attack.

Dark Pit's version of this move uses the [[Dark Pit#Electroshock Arm|Electroshock Arm]].

=====Wings of Icarus=====
[[File:Pit wings of icarus.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|Wings of Icarus]]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Wings of Icarus}}
'''Wings of Icarus''' is Pit's up special move in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. It is most likely a reference to both the [[icaruspedia:Wings of Pegasus|Wings of Pegasus]], one of the [[icaruspedia:Three Sacred Treasures|Three Sacred Treasures]] from the original ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus (game)|Kid Icarus]]'', and the [[icaruspedia:Angel's Feather|Angel's Feather]], an item from the same game that gives Pit temporary flight. When used, Pit's wings turn blue, and the player is able to fly freely for a limited time. The move gives Pit extra height when used from on the ground, also pushing away nearby opponents and items.

=====Power of Flight=====
[[File:Pit Power of Flight Wii U.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Pit using the Power of Flight in ''Super Smash Bros. for Wii U'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Power of Flight}}
The '''[[icaruspedia:Power of Flight|Power of Flight]]''' is the up special move used by both Pit and Dark Pit in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', replacing Pit's previous up special move from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Wings of Icarus. It is based upon the limited flight power granted to Pit by [[Palutena]] in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' for the game's flight combat sections, as Pit cannot fly on his own. When used, Pit briefly charges up and takes off in the direction the player holds the stick in a quick burst of movement.

Pit and Dark Pit also share custom variations of this move in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''. The first is '''Striking Flight''', which deals damage as Pit takes off, but can only be used to move at a slight left or right angle. The second variation is '''Breezy Flight''', which does not send Pit as high, but is faster to execute and creates a whirlwind when taking off that pushes away opponents.

=====Mirror Shield=====
[[File:MirrorShield.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|Mirror Shield]]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Mirror Shield}}
The '''[[icaruspedia:Mirror Shield|Mirror Shield]]''' is one of the Three Sacred Treasures in the [[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus (series)|''Kid Icarus'' series]] that appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' as Pit's down special move. When used, Pit crouches and holds a shield up in front of himself that reflects oncoming projectiles, also causing them to deal more damage. It can also protect against physical attacks, though only when the attacker is facing Pit. The player can keep the shield out longer by holding down the special button, and can also angle the shield upward with the control stick.

Although it is replaced by the [[#Guardian Orbitars|Guardian Orbitars]] in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', the Mirror Shield still appears in Pit's [[Final Smash]], [[#Three Sacred Treasures|Three Sacred Treasures]], though it is only aesthetic.

=====Guardian Orbitars=====
[[File:SSBU Guardian Orbitars Pit.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Pit using the Guardian Orbitars in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'']]
{{main-external|SmashWiki|Guardian Orbitars}}
The '''[[icaruspedia:Guardian Orbitars|Guardian Orbitars]]''' are weapons in the [[icaruspedia:Orbitars|Orbitar]] weapon class in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', appearing as the down special move for both Pit and Dark Pit in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'' and ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'', and replacing Pit's Mirror Shield move from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. Pit summons the Guardian Orbitars to project a pair of shields around both sides of himself that can block attacks from both sides. They also push away opponents upon use, and remain active for a limited time as long as the player holds down the special move button, or automatically after a few seconds. If the shields are attacked enough, however, they shatter, preventing the player from using them for a time.

Pit and Dark Pit also share this move's custom variations in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U''. The first is '''Impact Orbitars''', which makes the move a proper attack at the cost of defending Pit. The second is '''Amplifying Orbitars''', which increases the power of reflected projectile attacks but makes the Orbitars weaker.

'''Palutena's Army''' is Pit's [[Final Smash]] in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When it is used, the goddess Palutena appears in the background and Pit calls several [[icaruspedia:Centurion|Centurions]] to the battlefield to attack opponents by ramming into them. Each Centurion disappears after hitting an opponent, and can also be defeated by attacking them.

The treasures make an appearance as Pit's Final Smash in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'', replacing Palutena's Army from ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''. When used, Pit dons the treasures and starts firing off light arrows in the direction he's facing. Pit fires several small arrows, homing bursts of light, and a large light arrow that is fired in an arc toward an opponent. After launching all of the arrows, Pit calls down several beams of light that are spread across the stage, damaging opponents and breakable obstacles they connect with. Afterwards, Pit unequips the Three Sacred Treasures. Despite having all three treasures equipped, Pit only uses the Arrow of Light for this attack.

Another of Pit's specials is Palutena Bow, which fires arrows Pit can aim even after they've left the bow.''

====Palutena's Guidance====
*'''Pit''': Wait a sec! Is that...me?
*'''[[Palutena]]''': It certainly appears to be the case.
*'''Pit''': You're awfully calm about this, Lady Palutena!
*'''Palutena''': Well, we've been through a similar situation in the past. Don't you recall?
*'''Pit''': Yeah, but it's still freaky. It's like looking through a twisted mirror! That reminds me. You know how Dark Pit came from a mirror? Then why doesn't he move left when I move right, and vice versa?
*'''Palutena''': Beats me.
*'''Pit''': But you're supposed to know everything! Don't you have an all-seeing eye and an all-knowing brain and all that?
*'''Palutena''': My all-seeing eye sees you getting hit.
*'''Pit''': Oh, man, really?
*'''Palutena''': I'm sure the true Pit would triumph over any doppelgänger. So I guess now we'll see if you're the real deal!
*'''Pit''': I meant to ask you about one more thing. Have you noticed that I can kind of fly on my own a bit?
*'''Palutena''': Actually, it's called jumping, Pit. Sorry to be the one to break it to you.

===amiibo===
*''Pit is the captain of Palutena's royal guard and hero of the Kid Icarus games. Despite the wings on his back, Pit needs the Power of Flight from Palutena in order to truly fly. With the aid of Palutena, goddess of light, Pit fends off the resurrection of Medusa and her Underworld Army to save the land from the dark goddess.''
