Dark Pit Staff
Template:Infobox Final Smash SSB4 Dark Pit Staff (ブラピの狙杖, Black Pit's Ancestor Staff) is Dark Pit's Final Smash. In this Final Smash, Dark Pit takes out his staff and fires a powerful horizontal shot, quipping "Goodbye!" or "It's time!" as he does so. The move is a clone of Zelda and Sheik's Light Arrow, down to having the screen freeze and the camera zoom in on each character being hit.
Origin
Staff weapons are one of the nine weapon classes in Kid Icarus: Uprising. Though they lack in melee and homing capabilities, their range and increased damage from afar makes them ideal for sniping. In addition, the Special Attack for staffs is a giant laser beam, which both bears a striking resemblance to this Final Smash and needs careful aim to be at its most effective (like the Final Smash). The Dark Pit Staff, which is modeled after Dark Pit himself, inflicts a large amount of damage from a far distance, and its continuous fire is also powerful; however, its size and range are less than that of a normal staff.
Dark Pit uses this weapon in Chapter 6 if his location, chosen at random from four possible areas, is at the hilltop. If he is present in that area, he will attempt to snipe Pit from the hilltop once he enters. The effects and visuals in this final smash also look similar to the charge shot during air battles in Uprsing.
Trophy
Wii U version
- In Kid Icarus: Uprising, Dark Pit used this staff to snipe at Pit form a mountaintop. In that game, it did much more damage when used at a distance. In this game, Dark Pit uses it to launch a high-speed horizontal blast that goes straight through obstacles. It can hit multiple foes in a row, but only the first will feel its full force.
3DS version
- This weapon may be called a staff, but it actually does better shooting powerful shots at targets at long range. Like Dark Pit, this staff was created by the Mirror of Truth. If Pit were to use it, he'd probably feel lingering echoes of his clone's warped personality.

Trivia
- Out of the two quotes Dark Pit can say in this Final Smash, "It's time!" does not appear in the Sound Test.
