In ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'', Pit's Final Smash changed from Palutena's Army to [[Three Sacred Treasures]]. However, it is referenced in [[Palutena's Guidance]], where Palutena, now joining the fight and becoming a playable character, refuses to help Pit during their battle.

In the original ''[[Kid Icarus]]'' for the Nintendo Entertainment System, '''Centurions''' ({{ja|イカロス|Ikarosu}}, ''Icarus'') are rank-and-file soldiers of [[Palutena]] and Angel Land who were turned to stone by Medusa's army. The Centurions play a large role in boss fortresses; in these levels, Pit can find mallets and use them to break open statues scattered around the area, freeing the Centurion trapped inside. When Pit eventually reaches the boss chamber, any Centurions that he rescued will fly in and attack the enemy; this is where the Final Smash concept is taken from. Just as in ''Brawl'', the Centurions in ''Kid Icarus'' would perish after being hit a single time, though they could attack repeatedly in the original game.
In the original ''[[Kid Icarus]]'' for the Nintendo Entertainment System, '''Centurions''' are rank-and-file soldiers of [[Palutena]] and Angel Land who were turned to stone by Medusa's army. the Centurions played a large role in boss fortresses. On those particular levels, Pit could find hammers and use them to break open statues scattered around the area, freeing the Centurion trapped inside. When Pit eventually reaches the boss chamber, any Centurions that he rescued will fly in and attack the enemy. However, this only effectively damaged Twinbellows; Hewdraw was too hard to hit and Pandora beat them with ease. This is where the Palutena's Army attack concept is taken from. Just as in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'', the Centurions in ''Kid Icarus'' would perish after being hit a single time, though they could attack repeatedly in the original game. They did not return for the sequel; Centurion statues are present, but they only hold items.{{clr}}
 
The Final Smash's name is derived from the NES game's manual: "The Tale of Kid Icarus" describes the losses suffered by Palutena's army against Medusa's Underworld forces, and the "Introducing the Inhabitants In Angel Land" section directly refers to the Centurion as a warrior in Palutena's army. While the Final Smash does not return in ''SSB4'', this name is referenced again in the Centurions' NTSC trophy description in {{for3ds}}, which refers to them as standard soldiers of Palutena's Army.

*In NTSC versions of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', a CPU Pit will mostly spam his [[Palutena's Arrow]] attack after he uses his Final Smash, even at Level 9, similar to that of the way that a {{SSBB|Luigi}} CPU using [[Negative Zone]] will spam his {{h1|Fireball|Luigi}}.

*The Centurions in ''Brawl'' are largely faithful to their original artwork from ''Kid Icarus''. Therefore, unlike Pit and Palutena, their later redesign in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising'' was not influenced by their appearance in ''Brawl''.
