Announced at [[E3]] 2006, '''Pit''' ({{ja|ピット|Pitto}}, ''Pit'') is a playable character appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' after a sixteen year absence from video games. He uses a [[Palutena's Arrow|bow and arrow]] as a weapon, which can also split into 2 small blades. The arrows it fires resemble beams of light, and the curve of the arrows' trajectory can be controlled by the player. Pit has the ability to jump in midair multiple times; however, according to the [http://www.smashbros.com/wii/en_us/characters/pit.html DOJO!!], Pit is an angel who cannot ordinarily fly. Pit's [[up special move]], known as the [[Wings of Icarus]], allows him to fly freely for a brief period of time, though, like his [[midair jump]]s, he will fall soon afterwards, as if he's tired. This move can cancel if Pit attacks or is attacked. Like {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} and {{SSBB|Charizard}}, Pit is able to [[glide]]. | Announced at [[E3]] 2006, '''Pit''' ({{ja|ピット|Pitto}}, ''Pit'') is a playable character appearing in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

Pit's [[Palutena's Arrow]] is a great projectile due to its fast speed, long range, quick start-up time (making it easily spammable). However, it's also easily [[perfect shield]]ed due to its fast speed, which makes it lose some of its usefulness. Pit can have only 4 arrows flying around at once, once the player inputs the next arrow the first one will disappear. | Pit's [[Palutena's Arrow]] is a great projectile due to its fast speed, long range, quick start-up time (making it easily spammable).

Pit has an advanced technique known as [[Wing Dashing]], which sends Pit flying forward a small bit. He also has one of the longest recoveries in the game, with three midair jumps, the fastest glide in the game, and an exceptional up special [[Wings of Icarus]]. However, should Pit get hit while using Wings of Icarus or attacks out of it, he cannot use it again until he lands onto the ground, grabs a ledge, or gets KO'd. Pit is the only character who cannot use his up special again if he is hit out of it. | Pit has an advanced technique known as [[Wing Dashing]], which sends Pit flying forward a small bit.

Pit's moves generally have low lag, low knockback, and deal medium damage. This, however, is one of Pit's greatest weaknesses. Due to [[stale-move negation]], continued use of his smashes can make KOing a difficult task, forcing the player to switch to projectile attacks to buff out smashes again. Pit's back aerial is his most powerful attack, which is a solid KO move due to its speed. Careful Pit players can maximize his potential, while playing through his weaknesses, but it can be a difficult task. | Pit's moves generally have low lag, low knockback, and deal medium damage.

Pit starts off watching the stadium match between {{SSBB|Mario}} and {{SSBB|Kirby}} through a reflecting pool in a sky palace. After witnessing the invasion of the [[Subspace Army]] interrupting the match, the goddess [[Palutena]] summons him and sends him to attack the Subspace Army, giving him [[Bow of Light]]. He eventually meets and teams up with {{SSBB|Mario}}, after battling through a [[Greap]]. {{SSBB|Mario}}, stuck in trophy form, is awakened by and joins forces with Pit to fight off the Subspace Army. | Pit starts off watching the stadium match between {{SSBB|Mario}} and {{SSBB|Kirby}} through a reflecting pool in a sky palace.

Later, they chase after the [[Ancient Minister]] but fail to catch him. If the player rescued {{SSBB|Zelda}}, Pit and Mario would face off against a clone of her made from [[Shadow Bug]]s. {{SSBB|Link}}, who was passing by with {{SSBB|Yoshi}}, was furious because he thought that the copy of Zelda was the real thing so he and Yoshi attack Pit and Mario. When the player wins against Link and Yoshi, they are turned into trophies and are captured by {{SSBB|King Dedede}} but are rescued by {{SSBB|Kirby}}. Kirby revives Link and Yoshi, then Link fires an arrow at the car that King Dedede stole from {{SSBB|Wario}} to slow him down. Pit, Mario, Link, Yoshi and Kirby then team up to stop King Dedede. | Later, they chase after the [[Ancient Minister]] but fail to catch him.

If the player rescued {{SSBB|Peach}}, Link and Yoshi would attack the clone of Peach and Mario and Pit would attack Link and Yoshi, but they would lose and turn into trophies. Then they get captured by King Dedede but are rescued narrowly by Kirby. They are then revived by Kirby and Pit fires an arrow at the [[Cargo]] that King Dedede stole and the story continues. The five heroes then come across King Dedede's castle, which has been raided by [[Bowser]]. The team catches up to Bowser, who has stolen the trophy of Peach/Zelda. Bowser dodged Mario and Pit's attacks and escaped in his [[Koopa Clown Car]]. | If the player rescued {{SSBB|Peach}}, Link and Yoshi would attack the clone of Peach and Mario and Pit would attack Link and Yoshi, but they would lose and turn into trophies.

Much later, the team once again runs into the Ancient Minister. Pit fires an arrow at the Minister but he dodges before it hit. They then chase after the Minister but are stopped by his {{SSBB|R.O.B.}} army. The R.O.B's then start to activate the [[Subspace Bomb]] that the Minister carried. Mario and Pit try to take the R.O.Bs that are activating the bomb off (Pit tries to pull one off while Mario punches the other) but are pulled away by two other R.O.B's. The team barely escapes when the bomb explodes. Later, the team comes down to help {{SSBB|Marth}}, {{SSBB|Ike}}, {{SSBB|Ice Climbers}}, {{SSBB|Lucas}}, and the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}} from a huge army of Subspace minions. | Much later, the team once again runs into the Ancient Minister.
