Lightweight (軽量化, Lighten) is one of Palutena's alternate down special moves in Super Smash Bros. 4.

Overview

Palutena under the effects of Lightweight running with Sonic.

Once Lightweight is activated, Palutena's movement speed and jumping abilities are increased for 15 seconds, at the cost of receiving more damage (knockback is unchanged). When Lightweight's effect ends, Palutena's ground and air movement speed are reduced to half their normal value for 5 seconds. After this, 10 more seconds must pass before the move can be used again.

Customization

Special Move customization was added in Super Smash Bros. 4. These are the variations:

1. Counter	2. Lightweight	3. Celestial Firework
"Prepare for an opponent's attack, and strike back when struck."	"Makes you lighter and significantly faster, but you'll also be easier to launch as a result."	"Shoot a firework into the air. The firework explodes when hit or after a short time."

Origin

Lightweight is a stat-based power that Pit or a fighter can wield in Kid Icarus: Uprising. This power increases speed and prevents tiring out, at the cost of reduced defenses.
