Heavenly Light (天の光, Heavenly Light) is one of Palutena's alternate neutral special moves.

Overview

When used, a wide vertical pillar of light shines down on Palutena for some time. Any opponent within the light will be damaged. This move does not cause flinching or knockback, but has a weak pushing effect instead. The effect can last longer if the special button is held, its maximum being 3 seconds.

Origin

Heavenly Light is one of the many powers Pit or a fighter can wield in Kid Icarus: Uprising. It is an offensive power that creates a pillar of light around the user, damaging foes while causing no knockback. These traits carry over into Smash 4.

Trivia

  • Heavenly Light is the largest-area attack usable by any playable character without the aid of an item. Its huge area was specially noted in this Miiverse post.
  • Heavenly Light also appears as a power and event in Smash Run
