Mythra is one of the main characters from Xenoblade Chronicles 2. She is an Aegis (or Legendary Blade) that can be wielded by the game's main protagonist, Rex. Like Pyra, whom she created as a different personality of herself, she has a sword form and a human form.

Both Mythra and Pyra were announced as the fighters for Challenger Pack 9 for the Fighters Pass Vol. 2 in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate on February 17, 2021, which is expected to release in March. They function as one character, with players having the option to switch back and forth between them, similar to how Zelda and Sheik functioned in Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Mythra's moves include Lightning Buster, a slash attack that can be charged; Photon Edge, an attack that slashes opponents multiple times; Ray of Punishment, where Mythra slashes an opponent upwards and fires a beam of light downwards; Chroma Dust, where Mythra fires multiple, downward shorts; and Foresight, which acts as a counter similar to Shulk's Vision. Mythra's Final Smash is Sacred Arrow, in which Rex appears and the two rain multiple beams of light on opponents.

Prior to being revealed as fighters, both Mythra and Pyra were Legend-class support spirits. Mythra's spirit battle involves fighting female Corrin, representing Mythra, and Shulk, representing Rex, on the Battlefield form of Gaur Plain. When equipped, Mythra's spirit increases the fighter's chance of landing a random powerful attack.
