{{disambig2|Pit's appearance in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''|the character in other contexts|Pit}}

'''Pit''' ({{ja|ピット|Pitto}}, ''Pit'') is a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. He was confirmed as a playable character on June 12th, 2018. Pit is classified as fighter #28.

Antony Del Rio and Minami Takayama reprise the role of Pit in the English and Japanese versions of the game, respectively.

*Clear {{SSBU|Classic Mode}} with {{SSBU|Samus}} or any character in her unlock tree, being the third character unlocked after {{SSBU|Wii Fit Trainer}}.

With the exception of the third method, Pit must then be defeated on [[Skyworld]].

*{{change|As with all [[veteran]]s returning from ''SSB4'', Pit's model features a more subdued color scheme. His clothing and wings now feature simple detailing, while his eyes and hair appear more detailed.}}

*{{change|Like many other characters, Pit is more expressive.}}

*{{change|The look of Pit's [[Upperdash Arm]] has been altered. The blue orb in the center has more detail, making it more closely resemble its appearance in ''Uprising''.}}

*{{change|Pit's side taunt has been shortened. He now swings his bow three times instead of four.}}

*{{change|The wing particle effects from Pit's down taunt are more pronounced.}}

*{{change|Pit's [[Star KO]] now has him shout, "I never learned how to read!" which is a line from ''Uprising''.}}

*{{change|Pit's "victory sign" animation has changed. He now does a celebratory jump before showing the hand sign.}}

===Attributes===

*{{buff|Like all characters, Pit's [[jumpsquat]] animation now takes three frames to complete (down from 5).}}

*{{buff|Pit [[walk]]s faster (1.199 → 1.259).}}

*{{buff|Pit [[dash]]es much faster (1.66215 → 1.828).}}

*{{buff|Pit's [[air speed]] is slightly higher (0.89 → 0.935).}}

===Ground attacks===

*[[Neutral attack]]:

**{{change|Neutral infinite's animation has changed. Pit's bow no longer spins while fully formed, he now quickly slashes with the bow split in two.}}

***{{buff|Up tilt's final hit deals less knockback, combined with the lower endlag, this grants it improved combo potential.}}

**{{buff|Down tilt has less endlag (FAF 32 → 26), and launches at a more vertical angle, improving its combo potential.}}

**{{buff|Down tilt, when used in quick succession, can now make him pseudo-crawl.}}

**{{buff|Dash attack's animation has been altered to a downward swipe of his blade. It is quicker and covers more area in front of Pit. It also deals significantly higher knockback.}}

*{{change|Forward smash's first hit has more range, but its second hit has less range. This makes it easier to land the first hit of the move and harder to land the second.}}

**{{buff|Forward smash has less ending lag (FAF 59 → 55).}}

**{{buff|Forward smash's second hit connects better, improving the move's utility.}}

===Aerial attacks===

*{{buff|All aerials have less landing lag (Neutral: 24 → 14, Forward: 20 → 12, Back: 20 → 11, Up: 24 → 14, Down: 24 → 12).}}

*{{buff|Neutral aerial's multi-hits connect more consistently.}}

*{{buff|[[Forward aerial|Forward]] and [[up aerial]] multi-hits deal less damage, while the final hits deal more. As a result, their knockback, kill power, and overall damage are increased.}}

*{{buff|Back aerial deals more knockback.}}

*{{buff|Down air hitbox is bigger.}}

===Throws/other attacks===

*{{nerf|Standing grab and dash grab have increased ending lag.}}

*{{nerf|Pummel deals less damage (2% → 1.3%).}}

===Special Moves===

*{{buff|[[Palutena Bow]] has less startup lag (19 frames → 15).}}

**{{buff|Pit can act out of Upperdash Arm if it connects.}}

**{{buff|Grounded and aerial Upperdash Arm has less ending lag (FAF 83 (grounded)/121 (aerial) → 70/105).}}

**{{change|Guardian Orbitars will shrink the longer they are held out.}}

Pit's opponents are similar to the enemies he faces in ''Kid Icarus Uprising''.

Pit tried to rally the other fighters to fight the army of Master Hands; he felt confident that the fighters would win the exchange against the Master Hands. Pit was present when [[Galeem]] unleashed his beams of light. He was flying alongside {{SSBU|Dark Pit}} to escape the beams, but after {{SSBU|Palutena}} was vaporized, they lost their [[Power of Flight]] and fell victim to the beams as well. They were both placed under Galeem's imprisonment along with the rest of the fighters, excluding {{SSBU|Kirby}}.

He appears in the Temple of Light sub-area at the very end. Defeating him allows access to a bridge that was previously blocked by being engulfed in light.

He is later seen alongside several other fighters, as they make their final stand against Galeem and [[Dharkon]].

*Pit's pose in his official artwork resembles his side taunt.

*When Pit is [[Star KO]]'d, he shouts, "I never learned how to read!" This is a reference to a line of dialogue he uses in ''Kid Icarus: Uprising''. This makes Pit the first character in ''Super Smash Bros.'' to speak a full sentence during a Star KO.  

*Pit is one of the few characters to have a completely different [[Final Smash]] in every ''Smash'' game since the concept's introduction in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', along with {{SSBU|King Dedede}}, {{SSBU|R.O.B.}}, and {{SSBU|Zero Suit Samus}}.
