Following their victory in war with Hades, Dark Pit temporarily became an officer in the Forces of Nature under [[Viridi]]'s command, as revealed in [[Palutena's Guidance]]. Their alliance was forged when their interests in defeating Pit and Palutena overlapped, as revealed by Dark Pit himself. | Following their victory in war with Hades, Dark Pit temporarily became an officer in the Forces of Nature under [[Viridi]]'s command, as revealed in [[Palutena's Guidance]].

Dark Pit is tied with Pit for 32nd/33rd out of 55 characters on the current [[tier list]] for ''Smash 4'', putting him in the D tier. Although the differences between Pit and Dark Pit are minuscule at best, Dark Pit's Electroshock Arm side special has significantly more KOing power compared to Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]]. This was made more apparent in update [[1.1.3]], which altered Electroshock Arm's launch angle, allowing for better KO potential, particularly when used on opponents close to the edge of the stage. Of course, being a clone of Pit, Dark Pit suffers from the same general KO issues. Currently, Dark Pit has little tournament representation. | Dark Pit is tied with Pit for 32nd/33rd out of 55 characters on the current [[tier list]] for ''Smash 4'', putting him in the D tier.

::{{Flag|North America}} ''Pit's mysterious, black-clad doppelgänger, Dark Pit. (Some call him Pittoo, but he really doesn't like that.) When he first appears, he immediately goes after both Pit and the Underworld Army. In Smash Bros., he uses moves a lot like Pit's, though both his bow and his Sacred Treasures are different.'' | |||
::{{Flag|Europe}} ''Pit's black-winged doppelgänger. Dark Pit, aka Pittoo (although he's not exactly fond of being called that), looks like Pit, moves like Pit and uses very similar attacks. He's a lot more aggressive, though, and doesn't take orders from anyone. He also has his own weapons, like his Silver Bow.'' | |||

::{{Flag|North America}} ''Dark Pit's Guardian Orbitars special puts up shields of light on either side of you to block attacks, deflect projectiles, and push back any enemies who are too close. You can even use the shields to protect against attacks from above and below. If they take too many hits, though, they'll vanish and become unusable for a while.'' | |||

Dark Pit returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' once again as an unlockable character. He is still a clone of {{SSBU|Pit}}, but is now rebranded as an [[Echo Fighter]]. | Dark Pit returns in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' once again as an unlockable character.

As with his counterpart, Dark Pit received several buffs in the transition from ''Smash 4''. While his overall gameplan has changed very little, many multi-hits connect more reliably, his combo starters are more consistent, and he generally benefits from universal mobility improvements. Most notably, Silver Bow is significantly more powerful, better compensating for its limited steering compared to Pit's Palutena Bow. However, he retains his lack of clear strengths from before, and as such is generally considered to be low to lower-mid tier. | As with his counterpart, Dark Pit received several buffs in the transition from ''Smash 4''.
