His loyalty to [[Palutena]] is unmatched, as he's shown to take great pride in serving under the goddess. He always formally 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 a major weakness, as Pit's courage and morale (and in some cases, his sanity) will falter if she is not present. | His loyalty to [[Palutena]] is unmatched, as he's shown to take great pride in serving under the goddess.

Besides his loyalty to Palutena, other notable traits of Pit are his selflessness and compassion. Pit values the lives and safety of others far more than his own, and he easily gets upset when others are hurt or killed. As the servant and bodyguard of Palutena, he is always on the lookout for her wellbeing. Pit speaks with great remorse upon finding out [[Gaol]] was a human and that he could have almost killed her. The angel also becomes sad over all the wars the humans engage in. Not only does he show concern for humans, but for his own troops as well. He was also the one responsible for rescuing [[Dark Pit]] from the clutches of the [[Chaos Kin]], despite knowing the [[Power of Flight]] will burn off his wings when exceeding its time limit. This act nearly costed Pit's own life. Pit also grieved over the death of the [[Chariot Master]] in guilt, believing he was responsible for the old warrior's end. Pit even displayed anger upon the death of his long-time enemy, [[Medusa]], when [[Hades]] destroyed her for her disobedience. Pit seems 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. Pit's compassionate side does have its limits however.

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 (which may have rubbed off from Palutena) and will eat almost anything regardless of where it comes from, but seems to have a preference for unhealthy 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, and appears to possess a powerful soul, 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. | Although not the smartest angel around, he is shown to be quite knowledgeable with video games, particularly from other Nintendo franchises.

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 can become 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. | Due to his young age, Pit is childish, gullible and naive.
