'''Pyra''' is one of the main characters from ''[[Wikipedia:Xenoblade Chronicles 2|Xenoblade Chronicles 2]]''. She is a Blade, which are personifications of weapons used by Drivers in the world of Alrest, more specifically an Aegis (or Legendary Blade) that can be wielded by the game's main protagonist, Rex. She was created by [[Mythra]] as a different personality of her. Pyra uses a variety of flame-based powers in combat, whereas Mythra uses light-based powers. Both her and Mythra are set to be released as a singular 2-in-1 downloadable fighter for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''.

On February 17, 2021, during a Nintendo Direct, both Pyra and Mythra were announced as the fighters for Challenger Pack 9 for the Fighters Pass Vol. 2 in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. They are set to release sometime in March. Their reveal trailer features Rex (the protagonist from ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2'') searching for Pyra, only to find her excitedly announce that she received a ''Super Smash Bros.'' invitation letter. Rex laments that he thought he was going to be the next fighter. A follow-up Direct showcasing Pyra and Mythra's moves in-depth, and announcement for their official release date is scheduled for March 4th, 2021.
 
Pyra and Mythra function as one character, with players having the option to switch back and forth between them, similar to how [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]] and [[Sheik]] functioned in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Pyra's moves include Smash Flare, a slash attack similar to [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]]'s [[Roy (Fire Emblem)#Flare Blade|Flare Blade]]; Flame Nova, a spinning attack that emits fire; Prominence Revolt, where Pyra leaps into the air and crashes back down creating a burst of fire; and Blazing End, a projectile attack that sets an opponent on fire on contact. Pyra's [[Final Smash]] is Burning Sword, in which Rex appears and the two create a pillar of fire that burns and launches opponents.<ref>Super Smash Bros. (February 17, 2021).

Prior to being revealed as fighters, both Pyra and Mythra were Legend-class support [[Spirit (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate)|spirits]]. Pyra's spirit battle involves fighting [[Lucina]] in a red costume, representing Pyra, and [[Shulk]], representing Rex, on the [[Battlefield]] form of [[Halberd]]. When equipped, Pyra's spirit increases the damage dealt on [[Assist Trophy|Assist Trophies]].

==Trivia==
*Like female [[Corrin]] and [[Bayonetta]] in the [[Super Smash Bros. (series)|series]], Pyra's design added some skin tights covering her legs in her in-game model and artwork. Unlike her counterpart [[Mythra]] who received the same treatment like her in-game spirit, Pyra's in-game spirit has never been modified to add skin tights covering her legs.
