Pit's Smash Taunt, also referred to as Palutena's Guidance, is Pit's Smash Taunt performed on Palutena's Temple by pressing Pit's Down Taunt. When it has been activated, a conversation is initiated about the opponent Pit is facing. This conversation has been seen to include Palutena, Pit, and Viridi. These conversations are comical in nature, similar to the conversations in Uprising. When certain characters are present, such as Robin, other characters may join the conversation as well, such as Chrom. This special taunt is extremely similar to the conversations between characters during gameplay in Kid Icarus: Uprising, down to using the same portrait artwork of the characters. Characters in that game frequently broke the fourth wall and occasionally mentioned other Nintendo games, similar to this Smash Taunt.
At least one screenshot shows the taunt being executed apparently without Pit's presence; it is unclear how this is activated.[1]
