| The '''Guardian Orbitars''' ({{ja|衛星ガーディアンズ|Eisei Gādianzu}}, ''Satellite Guardians'') are [[Pit]] and [[Dark Pit]]'s [[down special move]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. | |

| ==Overview== | | ==Overview== |
| The user summons two orbitars that generate shields on either side of him for a second and a half. They reflect projectiles (with a 1.5× damage multiplier) while active, similar to {{SSBB|Wolf}}'s {{b|Reflector|Wolf}} in ''Brawl'', and push away opponents at the beginning. The Orbitars also behave as [[shield]]s that can protect the user from attacks, in addition to [[push]]ing opponents away upon doing so, though they can be bypassed by [[grab]]s.
| | Pit or Dark Pit summon two orbitars that generate shields on either side of him.They have been shown to knock away foes on start-up and, in addition, reflect projectiles, similar to {{SSBB|Wolf}}'s {{h1|Reflector|Wolf}} in ''Brawl''. They can break after a set amount of hits by the opponents, at which point will have a recharge time before they can be used again. |
| | |
| The Guardian Orbitars have 18 HP in ''Smash 4'', and 15 HP in ''Ultimate'', which is shared between both orbitars, and is used up when blocking attacks. Unlike regular shields, they do not lose HP when simply held out, instead forcing the user to put them away if held for longer than a certain period (80 [[frame]]s in ''Smash 4'', and 100 frames in ''Ultimate''); in ''Ultimate'', they also gradually shrink in size as they are held, though they immediately start back at their maximum size when summoned again. If the orbitars lose all their HP, they break and cannot be used for 10 seconds; attempting to use them before this period will have the user perform the summoning animation to no effect. Otherwise, the orbitars recover HP at a rate of 0.07 per frame when not in use (4.2 HP per second), so if close to breaking, it takes at most 258 frames (4.3 seconds) for them to fully regenerate in ''Smash 4'', and 215 frames (3.583 seconds) in ''Ultimate''.
| |
| | |
| The Orbitars have a sizable amount of ending lag, whether they are voluntarily dropped or allowed to expire, which can leave the user open for half of a second. However, if they are broken first by powerful enough attacks, their ending lag is sharply decreased. This event allows swift counterattacking (such as punishing a smash attack or [[Warlock Punch]]).
| |
| | |
| Because attacking the orbitars pushes opponents away, this move can be used as an [[edgeguard]] technique against a fighter with an attacking recovery such as {{SSBU|Mario}}, usually [[gimp]]ing them with the small push effect.
| |
| | |
| As a cosmetic difference, Pit announces "Stay back!" or chuckles upon activating his Orbitars, or in Japanese: "Hah!", "{{ja|守れ!|Mamore!}}" (''Defend/Protect!'') or "{{ja|当たるか!|Ataru ka!}}" (''Got ya!''); the very latter Japanese quote is taken from his original Japanese quote for his [[Mirror Shield]]. Meanwhile, Dark Pit announces "No way!" or grunts upon doing the same. However, his Japanese quotes are the exact same as Pit's, only in a deeper and more serious tone.

| |desc-ntsc=Guardian Orbitars are more defensive in nature than other Orbitars. When you fire a charged shot, they will create a shield that protects you and your friends. It's a good thing these float in the air on their own—they're actually ridiculously heavy.
| |
| |desc-pal=Not only can these orbitars create a shield, but they can also fire continuously! They're insanely heavy, but since they float in mid-air, that's not an issue. In fact, you could go into battle carrying everything but the kitchen sink and still be perfectly safe! Not that you should do that. But you could.

| Special Move customization was added in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. These are the variations:
| | Customization was introduced in [[Super Smash Bros. 4]]. Guardian Orbitars have two variations, both of which are alike for Pit and Dark Pit: |
| {{CustomSet|Pit|Down|name1=Guardian Orbitars|desc1=Shields your front and back and reflects projectiles, but you're vulnerable from above.|name2=Impact Orbitars|desc2=The Orbitars damage foes and knock them back.

| | #'''Impact Orbitars''': Can knockback foes, but loses the ability to reflect projectiles and shield. |

| #'''Guardian Orbitars''': Default.

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *The Orbitars's placement is inverted between the grounded and aerial versions of this move. This is most likely done to account for the animation difference between them.
