'''Palutena's Temple''' is the central palace located in [[Skyworld]] and home of the eponymous [[Palutena|goddess of light]], and the starting location of [[Pit]]'s missions. It is also where the [[Arms Altar]] is located. | '''Palutena's Temple''', formally known as '''Palace in the Sky''', is the central palace located in [[Skyworld]] and home of the eponymous [[Palutena|goddess of light]], and the starting location of [[Pit]]'s missions. It is also where the [[Arms Altar]] is located. | ||

Upon reaching the final area, [[Pit]] will automatically equip the [[Three Sacred Treasures]], flying in a blazing trail to face Medusa herself. Before he can reach her, however, he must dispatch at least 50 foes (parts of [[Erinus]] do not count), or he will have to take another loop through the Palace again until an opening in the monstrous forces opens up, allowing access to Medusa herself. Pit will then proceed to battle. If the player lowers Pit to the bottom of the screen's blue clouds, he will automatically be bounced back to the center level of the screen. After Medusa is defeated, Pit flies into a small room where Palutena waits. | |||
Enemies: (in encounter order): [[Totem]], [[Moila]], [[Erinus]], [[Syren]], [[Daphne]], [[Zuree]] | |||
3D Classic: Pit's last mission against Medusa is against a backdrop of stars and clouds. | |||
If Pit doesn't accumulate 50 kills by the time he passes halfway through the Zurees, the stage will reset from the beginning. Pit will know he's passed the check when the gold palace turns to red brick, then an enclosed purple hallway. It'll probably take 2-3 passes. Remember to collect the [[Heart]]s of the slain; new enemies of a type won't appear until the hearts disappear. | |||

The Palace in the Sky serves as the final area again, but it is more of a maze this time. There are multiple paths to take, different enemies, and secret areas only found through the use of a [[Mallet]]. [[Store]]s, [[Hot Springs]], and [[Sacred Training Chamber]]s are also present here. Instead of finding Medusa at the end of the area, [[Orcos]] is there instead to serve as the final boss. He fights Pit in a small chamber similar to Medusa, but after he takes enough hits, he transforms into a giant too big for the screen and possibly destroys much of the chamber to make room for his size. | |||

The goddess' temple acts as the central hub area in this game, and is where most of the game's menu functionality occurs. Although the location provides numerous customization options for players, it cannot be freely explored like a typical hub area. Players can check out their progress in the Treasure Hunt, perform Idol Tosses, practice Air and Land Battle techniques, and check out current weapons. A section called the Arms Altar features many other options regarding weapons. | The goddess' temple acts as the central hub area in this game, and is where most of the game's menu functionality occurs.

In this instalment of the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series, Pit is seen in a within the palace in one of the cutscenes for the ''[[smashwiki:Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary]]''. He is initially observed watching [[wikirby:Kirby|Kirby]] and [[mariowiki:Mario|Mario]] fight through a magical pool, then Palutena later appears to give the angel his [[Palutena Bow|bow]] and orders him to help the other brawlers fight against the Subspace. | |||

Palutena's Temple is featured in the anime shots. It appears in ''[[Palutena's Revolting Dinner]]'', but it has a vastly different look from other appearances, and has a more medieval castle style with fantasy elements opposed to the ancient Greek type of architecture commonly depicted in the games. The interior of the divine structure is also seen in ''[[Thanatos Rising]]'' where Palutena resides while she is helping Pit, and it is briefly observed in the beginning of ''[[Medusa's Revenge]]'' when Palutena is kept imprisoned by [[Medusa]]. | Palutena's Temple is featured in the anime shots.

If the player uses Pit's down [[smashwiki:Taunt|taunt]] quick enough while on the stage, it will trigger a conversation between Pit, Palutena, and Viridi about specific fighters, similar to [[smashwiki:Snake's Smash Taunt|Snake's codec calls]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. This mechanic, known as [[smashwiki:Pit's Smash Taunt|Palutena's Guidance]], is very reminiscent of the in-game conversations in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'', going as far as to use the same expression artwork. [[Dark Pit]] takes part in his respective conversation, and [[fireemblemwiki:Chrom|Chrom]] from ''[[fireemblemwiki:Fire Emblem: Awakening|Fire Emblem: Awakening]]'' appears in the conversation about [[smashwiki:Robin (SSB4)|Robin]]. | If the player uses Pit's down [[smashwiki:Taunt|taunt]] quick enough while on the stage, it will trigger a conversation between Pit, Palutena, and Viridi about specific fighters, similar to [[smashwiki:Snake's Smash Taunt|Snake's codec calls]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros.
