Brawl]]'', seventeen years after ''Of Myths and Monsters'', in which he was one of the first newcomers shown and one of the starter characters.  


Pit is [[Palutena]]'s most loyal servant, as well as the captain of her royal bodyguards. He is sometimes erroneously referred to as "Kid Icarus" in reference to the English title of the series. Pit is always armed with his trusty [[Bow]] and [[Arrow of Strength|arrows]] and prefers ranged combat, though he has demonstrated a fair amount of melee capability.

In earlier games, Pit appeared as a young, cherubic angel wearing a simple white chiton with a pair of sandals, and metal cuffs. He has short brown hair, and small white wings that are incapable of flight. In ''Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters'' and beyond, he dons a gold laurel crown. Since his reappearance in ''Brawl'', he was given a major redesign by [[Masahiro Sakurai]]. Pit now looks to be around 13 years old (in human years)<ref>http://www.4gamer.net/games/113/G011330/20110108010/</ref>, and has blue eyes and many tufts in his hair. His chiton remains white, now decorated with red and gold hems with vine-like patterns. It is fastened on the shoulder by a single gold [[wikipedia:fibula (brooch)|fibula]] with a red-colored gem embedded on it. He wears the outfit with a brown belt and a gold, triangular buckle on his waist. Pit also appears to wear a close-fitting navy blue undershirt and shorts beneath his chiton. The angel now has a pair of brown and gold cuffs on his wrists, a gold bracelet on his upper left arm, and another gold ring on his right thigh. Pit's sandals are brown and decorated with crossing, beige bands. The top edges of his shoes have what appears to be white fur or wool.

His Special Attacks, other than his Side Special, are based off of the [[Three Sacred Treasures]]. His specials are the [[Palutena's Arrow]], [[Angel Ring]], [[Wings of Pegasus]], and the [[Mirror Shield]]. After obtaining the power of the [[smashwiki:Smash Ball|Smash Ball]], Pit can use his [[smashwiki:Final Smash|Final Smash]]: [[Palutena's Army (Final Smash)|Palutena's Army]], to call upon a swarm of [[Centurion]]s to attack his opponents. His main weapon is called the "[[Sacred Bow of Palutena]]"<ref>http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/pit.html</ref>. This bow is his symbol and has the added feature of being able to split into dual swords (a trait that would carry on to its appearance in ''Uprising''). Pit uses both swords and bow for his Aerial, Standard and Smash Attacks, changing the weapon between three different forms to attack.

In the ''[[smashwiki:Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary]]'', Pit is first seen watching [[mariowiki:Mario|Mario]] and [[wikirby:Kirby|Kirby]] battling on a stadium through a magical pool in Skyworld. When he sees the stadium get engulfed by Subspace, Palutena appears and sends him to defeat the Subspace army, giving him his bow. Pit soon meets Mario, who was knocked out of the stadium by [[mariowiki:Petey Pirahna|Petey Piranha]], the act of which turned him into a trophy before he landed in the Sea of Clouds near Skyworld. Pit and Mario quickly team up and set out to defeat the Subspace army. They eventually form a larger party of fighters with [[zeldawiki:Link|Link]], [[mariowiki:Yoshi|Yoshi]] and Kirby, which joins up with other characters later in the story.

Eventually, all the characters, with the exception of [[mariowiki:Luigi|Luigi]], [[wikibound:Ness|Ness]] and [[wikirby:King_Dedede|King Dedede]] (and [[smashwiki:Sonic|Sonic]], who only appears at the end, as well as [[bulbapedia:Jigglypuff|Jigglypuff]], [[zeldawiki:Link|Toon Link]], and [[lylatwiki:Wolf|Wolf]], the three of whom are absent from the storyline altogether) join up and invade the Subspace, only to get turned into trophies by [[smashwiki:Tabuu|Tabuu]]. However, he and most of the others are rescued by King Dedede, Luigi and Ness, who had been absent in the invasion. Pit takes part in the final battle against Tabuu with all the other characters.
