Pit

A two-part kick that sends an opponent into the air. It'll send them up even if they haven't taken a lot of damage, so try to follow up with another attack afterward.

Pit swings his sword below him with a lot of power. If you hit the opponent when the sword is directly below him, it'll have a meteor effect.

In the Palutena's Temple stage, you can trigger a special smash taunt if you use Pit's down taunt for a brief instant. It'll only work once per battle.

When Pit grabs a Hammer, he swings it from the wrist, with only two frames of movement—just like how he used the mallets in the original Kid Icarus!

Press up before firing to aim the arrow that way. Also, you can guide the arrow while it's in the air.

A dash forward followed by an uppercut. While Pit is dashing, the Upperdash Arm deflects projectiles! Cool!

When used midair, it has less launching power, but you're not vulnerable for as long after the uppercut. When recovering from offstage, you can use it to rush a waiting opponent.

Pit's wings glow and then send him flying in the direction you choose. This move travels a long way, making it an excellent recovery move.

This move travels very far, making it great for recovering. However, what goes up must come down, so use it wisely.

These handy items will block enemy attacks as well as reflect projectiles. They'll even push back foes who touch them!

If the shields take too much damage, they'll break. When that happens, it'll be 10 seconds before they can be used again.

Pit summons the Lightning Chariot and flies offstage. Use the reticle to aim at opponents. When the gauge inside the reticle runs out, he'll come rushing back and launch any opponents that he hits.

For Pit's Final Smash, take aim at an opponent and then come rushing in. If you don't want to wait for time to pass, you can trigger the move instantly with the attack or special-move buttons.
