| '''Dark Pit''' ({{ja|ブラックピット|Burakku Pitto}}, ''Black Pit'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. After initially being teased before release via {{SSB4|Palutena}}'s [[List of Super Smash Bros. 4 character trailers#Palutena|reveal trailer]], Dark Pit was officially revealed by the official ''Super Smash Bros.'' website on October 9th, 2014, alongside {{SSB4|Dr. Mario}}. He is a moveset {{h1|clone|Clones in Super Smash Bros. 4}} of {{SSB4|Pit}} and, like Dr. Mario and {{SSB4|Lucina}}, Dark Pit was originally intended to be an alternate costume before being split off into his own character. In regard to Dark Pit, the reason for this was due to the oddity of him wielding the [[Three Sacred Treasures]] and the [[Electroshock Arm]] being already modeled.<ref>http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2015/02/18/masahiro-sakurai-s-super-smash-bros-diaries.aspx?PostPageIndex=4</ref>. | | '''Dark Pit''' is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', being an unlockable [[newcomer]]. Dark Pit was teased before release, being shown in [[Palutena]]'s reveal trailer. He was later confirmed and revealed by a leaker's [http://multitwitch.tv/yushako/hamayama Twitch stream]. His profile art matches that of [[Leak#ESRB leak|a previous leak]]. He is a {{h1|clone|Clones in Super Smash Bros. 4}} of {{SSB4|Pit}}, and shares many moves with him, including [[Upperdash Arm]] (using the [[Electroshock Arm]] instead for his version), [[Guardian Orbitars]] and [[Power of Flight]]. |
|
| |
|
| Just as in ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'', Dark Pit shares the same voice actors with Pit, with Antony Del Rio voicing him in English and Minami Takayama in Japanese, albeit with completely different voice clips as well as the former still remaining uncredited with his role.
| | ==How To Unlock== |
| | |
| Dark Pit, alongside his base fighter Pit, is ranked 32nd out of 54 on the [[tier list]], placing him in the D tier. The number of differences between the Pits is miniscule, yet somewhat noticeable: Dark Pit's forward tilt is weaker than Pit's, while his [[Silver Bow]] is significantly less maneuverable than [[Palutena Bow]]. Conversely, Silver Bow is stronger than Palutena Bow, while Dark Pit's [[Electroshock Arm]] is a more reliable KOing option compared to Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]]. However, these differences aren't enough to makes the Pits play much differently, resulting in them being ranked the same on later tier lists.
| |
| | |
| Outside of these differences, Dark Pit and Pit share the same primary strengths and weaknesses. Their damage racking and [[edgeguarding]] potentials are strong; they boast very good [[neutral game]]s; their respective {{s|icaruspedia|bows}} grant them disjointed ranges; and their recoveries are long-distanced. However, both Pits have unimpressive KO potentials, which forces them to be largely reliant on their forward smashes, forward throws, sweetspotted back aerials, Upperdash/Electroshock Arms and aggressive edge-guarding in order to score KOs.
| |
| | |
| Dark Pit's tournament representation was previously respectable, particularly due to {{Sm|Nairo}} having previously mained him, but after Nairo dropped him for {{SSB4|Zero Suit Samus}}, his representation has become noticeably worse than Pit's, who already held below-average representation.

|
| ==Attributes== | | ==Attributes== |
| Unlike most clones, who have multiple alterations to their physics or moves to differentiate themselves from the original (such as {{SSB4|Lucina}} lacking {{SSB4|Marth}}'s tipper and {{SSB4|Dr. Mario}} being a "slower, stronger {{SSB4|Mario}}"), Dark Pit is mainly the same as his base character, [[Pit]]. His mobility is completely identical, sharing the same [[walking speed]], [[dashing speed]], [[air speed]], [[falling speed]] and three [[double jump]]s. Similarly, Dark Pit's standard attacks are all identical to Pit's, sharing the exact same frame data, damage and knockback, with only five attacks in his entire moveset having different attributes (two standard attacks, two special attacks, and his [[Final Smash]]). In essence, this makes Dark Pit quite literally a clone character, to the point where he can be considered a [[custom moveset]] counterpart of Pit with his own roster slot (even their [[taunt]]s share the exact same length of time despite looking different). A Pit player will have no trouble playing Dark Pit because of their mirrored movesets, but the slight differences in their movesets can make Dark Pit a better or worse choice in a matchup.
| | Dark Pit is a clone of [[Pit]], and thus shares many attributes with him. Dark Pit does, however, have some gameplay differences. Dark Pit is stronger than Pit, but has less launch capabilities, making him more of a close range fighter. His Silver bow arrows, once shot cant be aimed as well as Pit. |
| | |
| The only alterations to his standard moves lie in his neutral infinite's finisher and forward tilt. The former is inferior to Pit's due to possessing a smaller hitbox and thus makes it easier to escape. Meanwhile, the latter has significantly lower base knockback, preventing Dark Pit's forward tilt from KOing easily, but allows it to [[lock]] floored opponents. As Dark Pit shares Pit's inferior KO potential, the lack of this additional KO move weakens Dark Pit's grounded KO ability, but also allows him to start combos at low percentages via locking.
| |
| | |
| The more significant differences lie in Dark Pit's [[special move]]s. The first is Dark Pit's [[Silver Bow]]: compared to Pit's Palutena's Bow, Silver Bow's arrows travel in an almost fixed straight trajectory and can be only shifted slightly up and down. Their limited movement grant them significantly less utility overall, especially in regards to "sniping" offstage opponents and [[gimp]]ing them. Instead, they possess slightly higher overall damage, increased knockback, and speed when uncharged, which make them more rewarding when used as a more conventional projectile. In essence, Dark Pit's arrows are inferior to Pit's if a player solely uses them to pester opponents, but allow him to tack on more damage on opponents who are in a disadvantageous state.
| |
| | |
| The second is his side special, [[Electroshock Arm]]. When compared, Electroshock Arm is significantly more powerful due to its higher damage, [[electric]] hitbox (which makes it safer on shield), and altered knockback scaling; when including its diagonal trajectory, it is easily capable of sending opponents offstage to edgeguard, and is a powerful tool for KOing, especially at the edges of a stage (where it can do so as early as 80%). Pit's Upperdash Arm is weaker due to its lower knockback growth and damage, KOing at around 150%. However, its vertical trajectory allows it to set up juggles and KO consistently anywhere on the stage; its angle also makes it capable of KOing moderately early on stages with low ceilings. Hence, Electroshock Arm finds much more utility as a surprise KOing and edgeguarding tool, while Upperdash Arm is mostly limited to sending opponents into the air until high percentages. This makes Upperdash Arm inferior to KOing compared to Electroshock Arm.
| |
| | |
| Dark Pit's [[custom moves]] are, like his overall moveset, mostly identical to Pit's. Guiding Bow functions much like Pit's Guiding Bow, albeit with less control and slightly more damage. Electrocut Arm functions similarly to a counterattack and boasts better KO potential, thanks to its higher damage output and knockback, with its KO ability being even stronger due to Electroshock Arm's higher overall power. However, it lacks any recovery potential because of it moving Dark Pit very slightly backward upon being used, and also forces him into his lengthy aerial ending lag animation while in midair. Breezy Flight makes Dark Pit more difficult to gimp at its start, but at the cost of weakening his long-distanced recovery. Lastly, Amplifying Orbitars are significantly stronger reflectors, making them a better choice against projectile-reliant characters. However, they lack pushboxes and have less durability.
| |
| | |
| All in all, in line with Dark Pit's Idol description in ''Uprising'', the [[icaruspedia:Dark Pit|"flawed clone of Pit"]] is a more difficult character to use projectile-wise due to his stronger, inaccurate projectile, but brings a different finishing tool in the form of Electroshock Arm, which can grant him opportunities to net KOs in the form of hard punishes. Regardless, both Pit's differences are not all that significant, and it is up to the player to decide which Pit to use in combat since both are solid "all-rounders" with a more notable preference towards edgeguarding and recovery.
| |
| | |
| ==Differences from {{SSB4|Pit}}==
| |
| Dark Pit is almost completely identical to Pit with minor differences. Dark Pit's [[Silver Bow]] fires stronger arrows than Pit's [[Palutena Bow]], but cannot be maneuvered as much as Pit's. [[Electroshock Arm]] deals more damage than Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]] and launches opponents at a horizontal angle as opposed to a vertical angle. This property allows the move to KO opponents earlier than Pit's when they are closer to the [[blast line]], but it will KO later than Pit's if they are further away from it. Dark Pit's neutral infinite has a smaller hitbox and his forward tilt has noticeably less knockback than Pit's. Dark Pit also has a different [[Final Smash]] called [[Dark Pit Staff]]. It functions identically to {{SSB4|Zelda}} and {{SSB4|Sheik}}'s [[Light Arrow]], firing a straight shot that will play a zoom in animation whenever it hits an opponent. | |
| | |
| Overall, these changes don't significantly change how Pit and Dark Pit play from each other, with the choice between the two coming down to personal preference. This is also reflected on how they were viewed competitively. The two were often right next to each other on [[tier list]]s, until the final two tier lists where they share the same spots due to the agreed consensus that they are essentially the same character.

| ==Update history==
| |
| Like Pit, Dark Pit received only a handful of buffs from game updates. However, his are actually much more beneficial in comparison to Pit's. The changes to shielding mechanics in [[1.1.0]] and [[1.1.1]] are slightly beneficial to him due to his multi-hit moves and his side special, Electroshock Arm, having better shield damaging capabilities. The base damage of Silver Bow was also increased (along with the projectile's speed) in 1.1.0, making Silver Bow slightly stronger than Palutena Bow. Update [[1.1.3]] buffed Electroshock Arm by increasing its damage output and base knockback, as well as altering its launching angle, all of which make it into a reliable KOing option while near the edge. Overall, Dark Pit is somewhat better than he was during the game's initial release.

| | *[[Neutral attack]] - Slashes three times, twice horizontally, and once vertically in quick succession. |
| |neutralcount=3
| | *[[Dash attack]] - Unknown |
| |neutralinf=y
| | *[[Forward tilt]] - Closes both blades in on his opponent for a slash attack, before backing off. |

| | *[[Down tilt]] - Crouches and swipes the blade towards the ground. |
| |neutral2dmg=2%
| |
| |neutral3dmg=5%
| |
| |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.
| |
| |ftiltname=Cross Chop ({{ja|クロスチョップ|Kurosu Choppu}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |utiltname=Anti-Air Kick ({{ja|アンチエアキック|Anchi Ea Kikku}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |dtiltname=Leg Cutter ({{ja|レッグカッター|Reggu Kattā}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |dashname=Dash Slice ({{ja|ダッシュスライス|Dasshu Suraisu}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |fsmashname=Dual Attack ({{ja|デュアルアタック|Duaru Atakku}})
| |
| |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).
| |
| |usmashname=Angel Spin ({{ja|エンジェルスピン|Enjeru Supin}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |dsmashname=Low Attack Combination ({{ja|ローアタックコンビネーション|Rō Atakku Konbinēshon}})
| |
| |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).
| |
| |nairname=Spinning Cycle ({{ja|スピニングサイクル|Supiningu Saikuru}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |fairname=Front Cycle ({{ja|フロントサイクル|Furonto Saikuru}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |bairname=Air Stab ({{ja|エアスタッブ|Ea Sutabbu}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |uairname=Lightning Rotor ({{ja|ライトニングローター|Raitoningu Rōtā}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |dairname=Under-Arc Slash ({{ja|アンダースラッシュ|Andā Surasshu}}, ''Under Slash'')
| |
| |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.
| |
| |grabname=Grab ({{ja|つかみ|Tsukami}})
| |
| |grabdesc=
| |
| |pummelname=Grab Kneebutt ({{ja|つかみニーバット|Tsukami Nībatto}})
| |
| |pummeldmg=2%
| |
| |pummeldesc=A quick knee jab. Relatively quick.
| |
| |fthrowname=Upper Swing ({{ja|アッパースイング|Appā Suingu}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |bthrowname=Behind Throw ({{ja|ビハインドスルー|Bihaindo Surū}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |uthrowname=Stand Shoot ({{ja|スタンドシュート|Sutando Shūto}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |dthrowname=Bone Divide ({{ja|ボーンディバイド|Bōn Dibaido}})
| |
| |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.
| |
| |floorfname=
| |
| |floorfdmg=7%
| |
| |floorfdesc=Dark Pit gets up and slashes on either side of himself.
| |
| |floorbname=
| |
| |floorbdmg=7%
| |
| |floorbdesc=Gets up, then slashes forward and stabs behind himself.
| |
| |floortname=
| |
| |floortdmg=5%
| |
| |floortdesc=Spins his bow behind, then in front of him.
| |
| |edgename=
| |
| |edgedmg=7%
| |
| |edgedesc=Dark Pit flips onto the stage and delivers a sweep kick.
| |
| |nsdefname=Silver Bow
| |
| |nsdefdmg=4.3%-10.9%
| |
| |nsdefdesc=Dark Pit shoots a purplish-black arrow from his bow. Can be slightly angled up or down while flying and can be aimed up while charging. More power and slightly faster than Pit's, although they cannot be curved as strongly. This makes them significantly less effective for [[gimp]]ing and edgeguarding, but more effective as a conventional projectile.
| |
| |nsc1name=Piercing Bow
| |
| |nsc1dmg=6.1%-13%
| |
| |nsc1desc=A much bigger and slower arrow is launched which is stronger and passes through rivals. Cannot be angled.
| |
| |nsc2name=Guiding Bow
| |
| |nsc2dmg=2.6%-6.9%
| |
| |nsc2desc=Dark Pit fires an arrow that can be curved as flexibly as Pit's but is weaker than normal. Deals slightly more damage than Pit's Guiding Bow, but also possesses lower maneuverability.
| |
| |ssdefname=Electroshock Arm
| |
| |ssdefdmg=12% (ground), 9.5% (air)
| |
| |ssdefdesc=Dark Pit brings out his Electroshock Arm and charges forward with [[super armor]], powerfully uppercutting the enemy. This move can [[Reflection|reflect]] projectiles and sends them back at a 43 degree angle. Unlike Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]], Dark Pit's variation sends the target flying at a lower angle, deals [[Electric|electrical]] damage, and has significantly better KO potential. Like Upperdash Arm, Electroshock Arm is an overall laggy attack, regardless of whether it is used on the ground or in the air. This is especially evident in regard to its aerial version, as missing it results in Dark Pit enduring a lengthy ending animation that can easily cause a [[self-destruct]] if it is used unwisely.
| |
| |ssc1name=Electrocut Arm
| |
| |ssc1dmg=13.5% (ground) 11.5% (air)
| |
| |ssc1desc=Dark Pit assumes a defensive stance and retaliates against any opponent who gets in front of him. In addition, the uppercut itself is overall stronger; due to Electroshock Arm's overall higher power, it is also stronger than Pit's variant (Interception Arm). Like Electroshock Arm, it grants super armor. However, it completely lacks recovery potential, as Dark Pit will only move very slightly backward after using it before tumbling downward with the move's usual aerial ending lag. There is also a slight delay until Dark Pit throws the uppercut, which can allow opponents to shield it.
| |
| |ssc2name=Quickshock Arm
| |
| |ssc2dmg=9.2% (ground) 7.2% (air)
| |
| |ssc2desc=The dash is faster, which makes it better suited for horizontal recovery. Dark Pit also plows through opponents after hitting the uppercut. As a result, Dark Pit can either chase after an opponent for a potential follow-up, or avoid being punished by a shielding opponent. However, there is a slight delay until Dark Pit performs the dash, while the uppercut's slightly lower damage output and significantly lower knockback make it unsuited for KOing.
| |
| |usdefname=Power of Flight
| |
| |usdefdmg=0%
| |
| |usdefdesc=Dark Pit activates Viridi's Power of Flight and ascends very high. It covers a significant amount of distance, and the flight's direction can be angled in any way except downward, making it capable of being a purely vertical and nearly horizontal recovery option. With a maximum duration of 2.42 seconds (145.2 frames), Power of Flight also lasts much longer than the majority of other recovery moves. It also grants [[intangibility]] on frames 9-19 when used on the ground, and on frames 15-19 when used in the air.
| |
| |usc1name=Striking Flight
| |
| |usc1dmg=9.5% (clean), 6.5% (late)
| |
| |usc1desc=Dark Pit knocks away opponents at the move's start and apex. Deals damage, which makes it safer against edge-guards. However, it has more start-up, cannot be angled as much, and covers very minimal horizontal distance.
| |
| |usc2name=Breezy Flight
| |
| |usc2dmg=0%
| |
| |usc2desc=A tornado is created at the move's start that shoves opponents back. The flight is faster and Dark Pit emits a tornado upon start-up that [[Windbox#Pushing attacks|pushes]] away opponents in the opposite direction of his ascent. However, it covers less distance.
| |
| |dsdefname=Guardian Orbitars
| |
| |dsdefdmg=1.5× damage (reflected projectiles)
| |
| |dsdefdesc=Dark Pit uses his Guardian Orbitars to create energy shields on either side of him. They reflect projectiles with 50% more power and 70% more speed than they originally had, and can block melee attacks. However, they will break if they block a total of at least 50% while active, after which they require 10 seconds to regenerate. Guardian Orbitars also push away opponents who are near Dark Pit when he wields them, which makes them capable of edge-guarding. In the air, Dark Pit can also strafe while using them, even if they are broken. Guardian Orbitars have a minimum duration of 0.3 seconds (20 frames) and a maximum duration of 1.3 seconds (80 frames), and have moderate ending lag when deactivated. However, they leave Dark Pit open to attacks above and below him, and have moderate ending lag unless they are broken; in the latter case, ending lag is significantly reduced and allows Dark Pit to react almost immediately.
| |
| |dsc1name=Impact Orbitars
| |
| |dsc1dmg=5%
| |
| |dsc1desc=Offensive variations that generate two semi-spike hitboxes on each side of Dark Pit. They also grant super armor. However, they have a much shorter duration, and are unable to reflect projectiles or block melee attacks.
| |
| |dsc2name=Amplifying Orbitars
| |
| |dsc2dmg=2× damage (reflected projectiles)
| |
| |dsc2desc=Variations that have an increased reflection multiplier for both damage and speed. They also have less start-up lag, a minimum duration of 0.27 seconds (16 frames), and a maximum duration of 2.5 seconds (150 frames). However, they are more fragile and cannot push opponents.
| |
| |fsname=Dark Pit Staff
| |
| |fsdmg=1% (startup) 39% (beam)
| |
| |fsdesc=Dark Pit pulls out his namesake weapon and fires an extremely long-range and powerful charged shot, much like Zelda/Sheik's [[Light Arrow]]. Opponents are sent flying diagonally, and the closer they are to Dark Pit when the Final Smash activates, the stronger the impact.

| ==Trivia== | | ==Trivia== |
| *Dark Pit was originally supposed to be an alternate costume for Pit. However, [[Masahiro Sakurai]] decided to make the two separate characters due to feeling that Dark Pit using the [[Three Sacred Treasures]] to be unfitting. | | *Despite official artwork of Dark Pit showing him wielding the {{s|icaruspedia|Dark Pit Staff}}, he actually uses the [[Silver Bow]] for all of his attacks, only using the staff for his Final Smash. |
| **Ironically, {{SSBU|Pit}}'s Final Smash in ''Ultimate'' was changed to the [[Lightning Chariot]], which has been used by both Pit and Dark Pit, thus defeating the original purpose of separating the two characters.
| | *Dark Pit is the only newcomer to be shown in another fighter's reveal trailer, but not to be revealed as a fighter. This caused many to believe that Dark Pit was the boss character for [[Palutena's Temple]] or an alternate costume for {{SSB4|Pit}}. |
| *Upon getting K.O.ed, Dark Pit may utter "It's not over...!" ("{{ja|まだ終わらんぞ....!|Mada owaran zo....!}}", ''It's not over yet....!''), a reference to his line upon being defeated by Pit during his boss fight in Chapter 6 of ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''.
| | *Dark Pit and [[Rosalina & Luma (SSB4)|Rosalina]] are the only characters with a different [[victory theme]] that isn't a remix of their universe's original victory theme. |
| *Both Pit and Dark Pit, akin to the former in ''Brawl'', have some of their moves not applying to their bow being split apart or put together. The moves that fit this are their down tilt, dash attack, up special, down taunts (despite both of them being different), rolls and sidestep (only if the latter two are done at the frame before their shielding animation properly occurs).
| |
| *Dark Pit is the only full clone to not have a corresponding cloned Final Smash, though his Final Smash is a clone of {{SSB4|Zelda}} and {{SSB4|Sheik}}'s [[Light Arrow]]. | |
| *Dark Pit's crowd chant is a repeated chant of "Pittoo, Pittoo, Pittoo" or "Burapi! Burapi!", depending on the international or Japanese release. In either case, Dark Pit's chant is the only one not to contain the fighter's actual name. Both of the nicknames are given to him by Palutena in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' (again, depending on the international or Japanese version), and are often used by her and other characters, much to Dark Pit's chagrin.
| |
| *On page 34 of the Prima Strategy Guide for ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', Dark Pit's up special, [[Power of Flight]], is instead called Pandora Wings. This is a reference to how Dark Pit got his infinite flight for the majority of ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''.
| |
| **However, after [[icaruspedia:Scorched Feathers|Chapter 22]], Dark Pit lost his infinite flight after Pandora used it to resurrect herself, resulting in [[Viridi]] granting him the ability. This is reflected in ''Smash 4'', as Dark Pit's wings glow green when he uses Power of Flight.
| |
| *Other than the DLC fighters, Dark Pit and {{SSB4|Duck Hunt}} are the only two newcomers not to appear in {{forwiiu}}'s [[opening movie]]. | |
| *In {{for3ds}}, Dark Pit's bow will not stay in his free hand properly while using his pummel due to a modelling error/glitch.
| |
| *Dark Pit is the only ''Smash 4'' newcomer to not have a splash art.
