In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

In addition to Against the Dark Knight returning, Black Knight appears in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U in several other roles.

As a trophy

NTSC: Not even the other members of the Daein army know the truth behind this dark knight. He is Ike's rival in Path of Radiance and the sequel, Radiant Dawn. His mastery skill Eclipse is so incredibly powerful, it'd be understandable if you thought his defeat would bring peace to the war-torn land.

PAL: It's said that the Black Knight's identity is a mystery even to the Daein army who he fights for. In Path of Radiance, he's Ike's mortal enemy, and this enmity continues into Radiant Dawn. His already fearsome strength is bolstered further by the skill Eclipse. He's so powerful that you might even expect him to be the final boss.

As a costume

The Black Knight's color scheme serves as basis for one of Ike's alternate costumes. The Black Knight's armor is also the basis of a paid downloadable content costume for Mii Swordfighters.

Origin

The Black Knight wields Alondite, the counterpart blade to Ike's ultimate weapon, Ragnell. After aiding Micaiah for a time in Radiant Dawn, the Black Knight is defeated by Ike.
