[[File:Pit's moods.jpg|350px|thumb|Pit's various expressions from ''Uprising''.]]
Pit is generally a goodhearted and heroic character, possessing a strong sense of justice. He believes in protecting humanity and the heavens from those that seek their destruction. The angel is also very upbeat no matter what the situation, which certain characters, including both foe and ally, can find it a nuisance at times. Pit has a notable humorous side, and he likes to frequently banter, crack jokes, make outrageous puns, and constantly break the fourth wall. He has made references to other Nintendo games such as [[mariowiki:Dr. Mario (game)|''Dr. Mario'']], [[metroidwiki:Metroid (series)|''Metroid'']], ''[[smashwiki:Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'', and [[wikipedia:Nintendogs|''Nintendogs'']].

His loyalty to [[Palutena]] is unmatched, as he's shown to take great pride in serving under the goddess. As a sign of respect and devotion, he always addresses her as "Lady Palutena". Pit even openly states the main reason he fights in the first place is because of her. Also, in many of his speeches towards the enemy, he always mentions fighting under Palutena's name. However, his absolute trust and dependence on the goddess of light has shown to be  double-edged sword, as it gives a boost to Pit's courage and morale, but these will all falter if she is not present.

Besides his loyalty to Palutena, Pit's substantial amount of compassion makes him stand out from the rest of the characters. He is one of the few to feel empathy for humans and hold an optimistic view on them. He believes humans are special in a way that they have "heart" unlike other living beings. As they are the only ones to show faith and devotion towards the gods. Pit's great kindness seems to allow him to see the good in most people, even in those that have committed heinous acts. Despite [[Viridi]]'s actions of trying to wipe out humanity, it is clear Pit does not view her a bad person as he held no ill will towards her. Pit appears to feel the same towards his dark counterpart even though [[Dark Pit]] made attempts to destroy him in the past. Pit even displayed some anger and grief for his long-time enemy, [[Medusa]], when [[Hades]] brutally killed her off for her disobedience. The angel is also incredibly selfless, as he will go to great lengths or help or save others. One notable case is when he rescues Dark Pit from the clutches of the [[Chaos Kin]] by reactivating the already exhausted power of flight. Despite knowing the risks, Pit goes through with it, resulting in him almost getting killed by the heroic act.  
Besides his loyalty to Palutena, Pit's substantial amount of compassion makes him stand out from the rest of the characters. He is one of the few to feel empathy for humans and hold an optimistic view on them. He believes humans are special in a way that they have "heart" unlike other living beings - they are the only ones to show faith and devotion towards the gods.

Pit's compassionate side does have its limits, as he has no qualms using lethal force when necessary.  


Although not the smartest angel around, he is shown to be quite knowledgeable with video games, particularly from other Nintendo franchises. Even Viridi was impressed by his "gaming IQ", and called him a "video game historian". Pit possesses a large appetite, claiming he always goes for seconds and thirds. He seemingly eats almost anything regardless of where it comes from (such as the floor), but seems to have a preference for junk food. Overall, his mind never seems to be too far from food, even during battles. He is shown to be a devout lover of [[Hot Spring|hot springs]], which Palutena (and once, Viridi) will occasionally conjure up for him. Pit strongly follows the "angel's code of conduct" to the point he even refuses to remove his clothes when entering water. However, the truth behind this is because the angel is frugal and wants to save on laundry. Pit is also very strong-willed, which is displayed by his deterministic attitude. This in turn appears to have given him a powerful and nearly-unbreakable spirit, as the Chariot Master claims he has a "deep reservoir of strength". Pit has a low tolerance for poor attitude, as he states to [[Pandora]]'s nonchalant behavior that he can take anything but indifference.

Due to his young age, Pit is childish, gullible and naive. He is unfortunately not the brightest either (but he can still have his moments). Pit openly claims he never learned how to read (but this could just be a joke the writers added for humor), and has trouble understanding complex vocabulary used by Palutena. Some characters even sarcastically insult his intelligence, and his inability to detect sarcasm makes things easier for others. Ironically, Pit can sometimes make sarcastic statements himself. Pit is also sometimes oversensitive, especially when someone brings up the topic regarding his inability to fly, or when someone insults his goddess. He can even come off slightly narcissistic at times, believing he is an attractive-looking person. However, he can become insecure when being compared to someone else with better looks. According to Palutena, Pit embarrasses easily, and Pit himself admits he gets stage fright. Despite his position as captain of an army, he seems to strongly prefer working alone (with the exception of Palutena), as Pit shows reluctance whenever someone offers help, and the angel states that he doesn't need his or her assistance. Regardless of Pit's quirky and sometimes immature behavior, Palutena and the centurions view him as a respectable servant and captain.
