Editing Dark Pit (SSB4)

|neutralcount=3

|neutralinf=y

|neutral1dmg=2%

|neutral2dmg=2%

|neutralinfdmg=0.8% (loop), 2% (last)

|neutraldesc=A triple slash ending in an uppercut. If the attack button is mashed, Dark Pit will spin his bow instead, hitting multiple times and ending in an upwards swipe. The jab infinite finisher has a smaller hitbox compared to Pit's, which can cause it to miss when Pit's would otherwise hit. Its first and second hits can also be [[jab cancel]]ed reliably, with their most notable follow-ups being down tilt, down smash, dash grab, and neutral aerial.

|ftiltdmg=10% (tip), 7% (base)

|ftiltdesc=Arcs his body forward to perform a scissoring slash. It is decent for spacing, with its sweetspot being at the tips of the blades. Significantly weaker base knockback than Pit's, which makes it inferior for KOing: Dark Pit's tipper KOs at 155% while Pit's KOs at 122%, while Dark Pit's sourspot KOs at 210% and Pit's at 170%. Due to it hitting on frame 10, it is Dark Pit's slowest tilt attack.

|utiltdmg=2% (hit 1), 3% (hit 2), 5% (hit 3)

|utiltdesc=A bicycle kick followed by a stretch kick. Compared to up smash, its lower ending lag makes it safer at harassing an opponent on a platform directly above Dark Pit. It can also combo into a neutral or up aerial at low percentages, although these combos are heavily dependent on the opponent's DI. Although its last hit has very high knockback scaling, it lacks KO potential because of its low damage output.

|dtiltdmg=6%

|dtiltdesc=Dark Pit swipes one blade across the ground in front of him. Its minimal start-up and ending lag make it Dark Pit's best grounded spacing option. When coupled with its average base knockback and low knockback scaling, it is capable of starting combos into a dash attack at low percentages. It also has a low chance of tripping the opponent.

|dashdmg=11%

|dashdesc=A spinning inward slash. It has low knockback scaling and launches at 60°, which allow it to combo into a dashing up smash or aerials at low percentages, depending on the opponent's DI and reaction. Its long range also makes it decent at punishing landings. However, its moderate ending lag makes it punishable on shield.

|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|5}} (hit 1), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|10}} (hit 2)

|fsmashdesc=Dark Pit separates his blades and slashes, before quickly putting them back and slashing again. Its first hit has low weight-based knockback, which allows it to connect reliably into its second hit. The second hit carries all of the knockback, and has more reach than the first slash. On the edge of Final Destination, the second hit KOs middleweights at 107%/92% (3DS/Wii U).

|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|3}} (hit 1), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|2}} (hit 2), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|8}} (hit 3)

|usmashdesc=A leaping triple slash to the sky. It hits on frame 6, which is very fast for a smash attack, and its long vertical range makes it a useful anti-air attack. Its last hit's very high knockback scaling enables it to KO middleweights from anywhere on Final Destination at 130%/119% (3DS/Wii U). However, its deceptively low horizontal range results in it hitting grounded opponents only if they are at point-blank range in front of Dark Pit.

|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|12}} (base), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|10}} (tip)

|dsmashdesc=Dark Pit stabs the ground in front of, then behind him. Its sweetspot is located at the base of each blade. It hits on frame 5, which ties it with {{SSB4|Pit}}, {{SSB4|Mario}}, {{SSB4|Dr. Mario}}, {{SSB4|Zelda}} and {{SSB4|Ryu}}'s down smashes as the second fastest smash attack of any kind in the game. It is thus very useful for punishing rolls. While the first hit has higher base knockback and both hits have equal knockback scaling, the back hit's sweetspot KOs earlier due to its [[semi-spike]] angle. At the edge of Final Destination, the back hit's sweetspot KOs middleweights at 125%/116% (3DS/Wii U), while the front hit's sweetspot KOs at 155%/144% (3DS/Wii U).

|nairdmg=0.7% (hits 1-7), 4% (hit 8)

|nairdesc=A buzzsaw-like series of slashes in front of himself. It hits multiple times, with its last hit having high knockback scaling, though it has a smaller hitbox behind Dark Pit that connects less reliably. It has the ability to nullify weak projectiles and its last hit has very high knockback scaling, which make it ideal approaching or edge-guarding. Auto-cancels from a short hop, making it a decent set-up option when [[Short hop fast fall L-cancel#Short hop fast fall|SHFF]]'d.

|fairdmg=1.5% (hits 1-2), 4% (hit 3)

|fairdesc=Dark Pit spins his bow horizontally in front of him, slashing foes multiple times before launching them diagonally. The last hit has the second highest knockback scaling out of his entire moveset, although the final hitbox's low damage output makes the move best suited for edge-guarding, spacing, or approaching. Auto-cancels from a short hop, but has a very short duration and minimal vertical range.

|bairdmg=8% (base), 12% (tip)

|bairdesc=A double reverse gripped thrust. It is Dark Pit's longest ranged aerial and can auto-cancel in a short hop, which make it a fairly useful spacing option, especially when used as part of a [[reverse aerial rush]]. When sweetspotted, it is also Dark Pit's most damaging aerial. While its base is largely ineffective, it nonetheless has very minimal follow-up potential at certain percentages. While near the edge of Final Destination, its sweetspot KOs middleweights at 137%/125% (3DS/Wii U). However, it has noticeable landing lag and a very small hitbox, the latter of which can make it difficult to land its sweetspot.

|uairdmg=2% (hits 1-5)

|uairdesc=An overhead, buzzsaw-like series of slashes. It hits multiple times, with its last hit launching at 68° and having the highest knockback scaling out of his entire moveset. These traits make it a useful juggling option. Even though it KOs middleweights beginning at 153% while near the upper [[blast line]], it only does so if all of hits connect because of its last hit's very low damage output. Auto-cancels from a short hop.

|dairdmg=10%

|dairdesc=A downward arcing reverse gripped slash with a single blade. Its sweetspot is a meteor smash that is active on start-up, while its fairly large range allows it to function as an approach option. However, it has noticeable landing lag and while it can auto-cancel near its final frames, it cannot do so with a short hop.

|grabdesc=

|pummeldmg=2%

|pummeldesc=A quick knee jab. Relatively quick.

|fthrowdmg=6% (hit 1), 4% (throw)

|fthrowdesc=Slashes the opponent away with an upward slash. Due to having the highest knockback scaling out of his throws, it is Dark Pit's only throw with KO potential. While near the edge of Final Destination, it KOs middleweights at 163%/148% (3DS/Wii U). Although it is best suited for KOing, it can also set up edgeguards due to its knockback scaling, and also has minimal combo potential: it can combo into a dash attack at 0%, or into [[Silver Bow]] at low percentages.

|bthrowdmg=8%

|bthrowdesc=Dark Pit spins around with the opponent trailing behind and slams them on the ground behind him. It is best suited for spacing, but it can also combo into a dash attack at low percentages, or act as a set-up into Palutena Bow at medium to high percentages.

|uthrowdmg=4% (hit 1), 7% (throw)

|uthrowdesc=A handstand kick, similar to {{SSB4|Sheik}}'s up throw. It is Dark Pit's most damaging throw, but its throw hitbox's average base knockback and knockback scaling make it unsuited for KOing or combos. As a result, its only utility is dealing damage and initiating aerial pressure alongside Silver Bow.

|dthrowdmg=2% (hit 1), 4% (throw)

|dthrowdesc=Pins the opponent to the ground and then slashes their back. It is Dark Pit's best combo starter, as it can combo into a dashing up smash at 0%-10%, and into a neutral, forward and up aerial at low to medium percentages.
