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?'" {{media link|KI Uprising promotional email.png|Promotional e-mail from Nintendo for ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''}}.</ref>

Pit is voiced by [[Lani Minella]] in English, who also voices [[Lucas]], and would later voice [[Larry Koopa]], [[Morton Koopa Jr.]], [[Wendy O. Koopa]] and [[Lemmy Koopa]] in later ''Super Smash Bros.'' games and several ''Mario'' games; in Japanese, he is voiced by {{wp|[[Minami Takayama}}]].
 
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 (Kid Icarus series)|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]]s to attack opponents.
 
=====The Subspace Emissary=====
Line 64 ⟶ 63:
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 at 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 (SSBSuper Smash Bros. Brawl)|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.

[[File:Pit (shadowless) - Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.png|thumb|Pit in ''Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS'' / ''Wii U'']]
Pit returns as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]''. While Minami Takayama reprised her role in the Japanese version, Pit is now voiced in English by Anthony Del Rio, his voice actor from ''[[mh:nintendo:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', which was also developed by Masahiro Sakurai. 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.

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.
 
====''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''====
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]]. This makes him one of the few fighters that have appeared since ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'' to have a different Final Smash in each appearance (along with [[King Dedede]], [[R.O.B.]], and [[Zero Suit Samus]]). [[Dark Pit]] is also specified as an Echo Fighter based on Pit in this game. Pit gains a new quote for his Star KO'd animation. Pit's up tilt is called Anti-Air Attack, while his down aerial is called Under-Arch Slash.

Pit's up tilt is called Anti-Air Attack, while his down aerial is called Under-Arch Slash.
 
Pit has received many improvements compared to the previous installment, such as faster mobility, reduced short hop timing and landing lag in aerial attacks, the reintroduction of directional air dodging, the ability to dash cancel any ground attack, and the ability to use aerial attacks on ladders. Pit also receives improvements such as decreased ending lag in his up tilt, down tilt, and down throw; increased ability to knock back opponents in his dash attack, forward smash, back aerial attack, and down aerial attack; and increased damage for his standard, forward, and up aerial attacks.
 
In the Adventure mode, both Pit and Dark Pit are present when the fighters oppose [[Galeem]] for the first time. The former is seen before Galeem unleash the large laser attack; [[Palutena]] then tries to [[Palutena#Reflect Barrier|reflect]] Galeem's large laser attack while granting the Power of Flight to both Pit and Dark Pit, but fails and is eliminated, cutting off Pit and Dark Pit's flight and causing them to fall to Galeem's attack as well.

The '''[[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.

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.

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.
