~ Great Sacred Treasure's idol description |
Pit is the main character and protagonist of Kid Icarus. He is Palutena's most loyal servant and leader of her royal bodyguard, the Icarus army. During the first game, Palutena was locked away in Skyworld temple by Medusa during a war between the Underworld army and the Icarus army, which resulted in an easy victory for the Underworld due to a surprise attack, leaving Pit the last remaining angel and the only one capable of saving Palutena by retrieving the Three Sacred Treasures. After successfully acquiring them, Pit defeats Medusa and saves Palutena, returning peace to Angel Land.
Sometime after the war between the two goddesses, Palutena has a horrid dream of demonic beings known as the Orcos that plan to bring chaos to Angel Land. After learning of this, Palutena tasks Pit to traverse through the Underworld, Overworld, and Skyworld to once again earn the power of the Three Sacred Treasures to become Amazing Pit and defeat the ominous Orcos for good.
Roughly twenty-five years later, the events of the most recent title, Kid Icarus Uprising, lead to another war between Palutena and Medusa, which reveals the true master of the Underworld and his plans to turn the souls of all living things into an undead army of Underworld troops. This leads to many events during the war, such as an alien invasion in which all gods must come together to fight them off, the Chaos Kin's espace which leads to a three-year time skip, the creation of Dark Pit from the Mirror of Truth's destruction, and even Pit receiving his most powerful weapon, the Great Sacred Treasure, which he uses to defeat Hades, end the war, and bring peace to the universe for supposedly another twenty-five years until Hades returns.

Burst Blade | While the Burst Blade has lower attack power and has the shortest range of any blade, it also fires multiple bullets at once, giving it a wide attack. Its ranged attacks have a strong potential of nullifying incoming fire. |
![]() |
Viper Blade | A blade said to have been forged from the scales of a thousand venomous serpents. It's one of the few weapons that inflicts poison damage. Users of this blade should soothe its dark, nightly rattlings with gentle caresses. |
![]() |
Crusader Blade | The horizontal stock crossing the barrel is packed with a substance that generates this weapon's wide-ranged shots. These shots have the strong potential for nullifying enemy fire, and the weapon's weight makes its melee attacks powerful. |
![]() |
Royal Blade | Once the heirloom of a royal house, this blade has since been worn by time and neglect. Its most powerful shots are those used during a backward dash, making the Royal Blade perfect for a hit-and-run strategy. |

![]() |

![]() |
Aquarius Blade | The Zodiac weapon bearing the sign of Aquarius. It uses extreme pressure to change water into an impossibly sharp edge. Its charged shot pushes enemies back as it damages them, and its melee attack can freeze foes. |

Insight Staff | Staffs have long attack ranges with shots that generally get stronger the farther they travel. They're weak in melee combat, however. The Insight Staff is a well-balanced choice for learning this type of weapon. |
![]() |
Orb Staff | The Orb Staff's jewel raises its melee power. Its shot strength doesn't vary much, making it effective at any range. And while these shots lack in damage, distance, and knock-back ability, their large size makes hitting foes a breeze. |
![]() |
Rose Staff | The Rose Staff is the product of a desire to combine beauty and lethality. The brambles it fires have exceptional attack power but travel slowly. On the plus side, this weapon charges fast, compared to other staffs. |
![]() |
Knuckle Staff | The brutish Knuckle Staff sets itself apart from other staffs by excelling at melee attacks. While its shots still pack a punch, they lack range, lose power as they travel, and charge slowly—so make sure to aim carefully! |

![]() |

![]() |
Flintlock Staff | This weapon excels at taking out foes from afar. Its shots increase in power as they fly at blinding speeds, making it a solid weapon for users with good aim. However, its melee attack is among the weakest of any weapon. |
![]() |

![]() |
Scorpio Staff | The Zodiac weapon bearing the sign of Scorpio. Its high-speed shots often inject poison that does damage over time, with a duration and probability based on attack type. While it has a short firing range, it boosts its user's speed. |
![]() |

![]() |
Dark Pit Staff | Staff used by Dark Pit when he hides in Chapter 6. The staff's charged shot does four times the damage at its longest range as it does up close. Continuous fire is also powerful but lacks size and range. |

Tiger Claws | Claws are melee-specialized weapons that fire talons. They improve speed more than any other weapon, useful since they tend to have a short attack range. With a balanced set of qualities, the Tiger Claws' usefulness in battle speaks for itself. |
![]() |
Wolf Claws | These wolf-themed claws set foes they strike on fire, dealing additional damage. Unfortunately, this flame ability limits the weapons' range. Their charged dash shot has a homing ability, something rare among claws. |
![]() |
Bear Claws | These claws are like a bear's, with melee attacks among the most devastating of any weapon. Their ranged shots are strong but have a short reach. If you can get up close, your foes won't know what hit them. |
![]() |
Brawler Claws | Not only do these claws grant faster movement than any other weapon, they make you look like the king of the ring! While their other attributes aren't as cool as their speed boost, you can't deny the coolness of two-fist punching action. |
![]() |
Stealth Claws | Forged in darkness and wrapped in the bandages of mummies, these claws are nearly invisible, so the targets of its fast fire may find it hard to find out exactly who is shooting. The claws do have a lower melee power, however. |
![]() |
Hedgehog Claws | Inspired by hedgehogs, these claws charge quickly and provide a large speed boost to users. While they lack homing ability and have a low attack power, their rapid fire shoots a ceaseless barrage of projectiles. |
![]() |

![]() |

![]() |

![]() |
Hawkeye Bow | Why get close to foes when you can snipe from afar? This bow's high-speed shots have a long range and have the strong potential to nullify incoming fire. However, its melee damage is weak, and it takes quite some time to charge. |
![]() |
Saggitarius Bow | The Zodiac weapon bearing the sign of Sagittarius. Its shots can pierce through multiple opponents, making it a great choice when outnumbered. Though it takes a long time to charge, it makes up for it in high damage and shot speed. |
![]() |
Aurum Bow | A bow created using Aurum technology. Rare among bows, its continuous-fire dash attack unleashes a barrage of multiple shots. Though it has good range and great homing ability, its low attack power makes it better at a distance. |

Violet Palm | Palms are equipped on the wielder's arm like a tattoo, drawing upon the user's own vitality to fire a barrage of homing shots. The Violet Palm is an average example of this weapon type, with great rapid fire but basic range. |
![]() |
Burning Palm | Shots fired from the Burning Palm set enemies on fire, dealing extra damage. It has the strongest melee attack of any palm, although it features a long charge time and short firing range. And after the battle, it makes a mean BBQ. |
![]() |
Needle Palm | This palm fires needles that burrow into targets. They travel fast but have little homing ability. There isn't much difference in range between charged shots and continuous fire, so no need to think too hard about gauging your distance. |
![]() |
Midnight Palm | The Midnight Palm is geared toward defense, with ranged attacks that have a strong potential of nullifying incoming fire. It has powerful but slow shots. Its backward-dash charged shot crushes foes with a gigantic moon. |
![]() |
Cursed Palm | A nefarious palm imbued with foul magic. It fires powerful cursed shots that travel slowly and lose strength over time, yet still relentlessly pursue their targets. And the Cursed Palm's melee attack is devastating in its own right. |
![]() |
Cutter Palm | The Cutter Palm fires light rings that slice through foes. While powerful, it takes long to charge and its continuous fire lacks good homing. Despite these flaws, you can't go wrong with its homing backward-dash charged shot. |
![]() |
Pudgy Palm | This palm weapon shoots fancy, balloon-like shots. It has a short charge time and a strong overall homing ability. Its backward-dash charged shot can overwhelm almost any shot and is handy against enemy attacks in Together mode |
![]() |
Ninja Palm | A weapon with the soul of a dark assassin. It has a short charge time, fires fast-moving shots, and boosts speed and agility. It even excels at melee attacks! On the other hand, it lacks in power, range, and homing. |
![]() |
Virgo Palm | The Zodiac weapon bearing the sign of Virgo. Features the longest firing range of any palm, and its shots grow in size as they travel. While lacking in power and homing ability, its backward-dash charged shot creates a useful defensive wall. |
![]() |
Aurum Palm | Produced with Aurum technology, the Aurum Palm has almost no homing ability, making careful aim a must. Its high energy output means it charges fast, allowing users to fire off charged shots at a rate of one per second. |
![]() |
Viridi Palm | Created by and requiring total devotion to Viridi, this palm excels at landing consecutive hits, with the damage it deals depending on where it strikes the target. Shooting from a distance will help improve its accuracy. |
![]() |
Great Reaper Palm | The Great Reaper Palm uses the power of the Great Reaper to summon Reapettes that hound targets. It takes a while to charge, but unique among weapons, its attacks have the power to halve the foe's maximum health. |
![]() |
Standard Orbitars | Orbitars are pairs of weapons that fire shots as they hover above their wielder's shoulders, allowing for wholly unimpeded movement. And what the small Standard Orbitars lack in punch they make up for in all-around quality. |
![]() |
Guardian Orbitars | These orbitars specialize in defense, for their charged shot raises a shield that has a strong potential of nullifying incoming fire. After throwing up this shield, users should switch to continuous fire as their main method of attack. |
![]() |
Shock Orbitars | These orbitars gather their energy from the flaps of Pit's wings, releasing electric projectiles that disperse on impact. Their speed and range are nothing spectacular, but their charged shots have a high homing ability. |
![]() |
Eyetrack Orbitars | These orbitars were once sealed inside a cursed royal tomb. Their homing ability is among the best of any weapon, making them very easy to use. However, they lack in terms of attack power and charge time. |

![]() |
Paw Pad Orbitar | The Paw Pad Orbitars are too cute, aren't they? They have a short charge time, and shots bounce about like an excited kitten. Shield yourself with the backward-dash charged shot, or circle around enemies using continuous fire. |
![]() |
Jetstream Orbitars | Charged shots fired from these orbitars may lack any sort of homing, but when they do hit—watch out! They're strong, though generally lose strength the farther they travel. Try knocking foes into the air with charged shots! |
![]() |
Boom Orbitars | These burly-looking orbitars fire small bullets that really pack a wallop! Top among orbitars in melee and ranged attack power, they lack any sort of homing ability and slow the user down considerably during continuous fire. |
![]() |
Gemini Orbitars | The Zodiac weapon bearing the sign of Gemini. The standard charged shots they fire travel straight, then break suddenly toward their target. This makes the wielder of such orbitars extremely hard to predict in Together mode. |
![]() |
Aurum Orbitars | These orbitars were built by literally combining members of the Aurum forces. Their continuous fire unleashes a narrow beam that is limited in range but travels so fast that targets have little time to dodge. |
![]() |
Centurion Orbitars | Modeled after Palutena's rank-and-file soldiers, these orbitars fire shots that arc like arrows in flight and are powerful at close range. Their backward-dash charged shots fire centurion-knight shields, and their continuous fire has a long range. |
![]() |
Arlon Orbitars | Inspired by Arlon the Serene. But unlike Arlon, this weapon is far from invisible in combat, featuring the longest range of any of the orbitars. Its continuous fire unleashes a stream of the chakrams used by Arlon. |
Standard Tactics:
Pit will typically use his longbow for all forms of combat, including melee where he can utilize his protective crystals to punish those in radius like a damaging shield and use his various drinks to heal if he takes enough damage (If he gets too low on health, his weaponry will begin to fail, which is why Pit prioritizes avoiding damage). Alternatively, he can transmutate his foes into mallets with the harp. If Pit ends up dying, Palutena will resurrect him shortly afterwards and possibly grant him the Three Sacred Treasures if they are available.
Pit will begin the battle airborne for five minutes (His maximum flight time with Palutena's blessings), where he flies on a pre-set flight path and uses his various weapons to overwhelm his opponent from a safe distance, eventually using his blessings if the battle proves to be tougher than anticipated. After the five minutes, he'll land a safe distance from his opponent and repeat the same strategy while grounded, using his various abilities to track his opponent and exploit their weaknesses.
Similarly to his airborne strategy, Pit will remain airborne indefinitely, overwhelming his opponent with an onslaught of different projectiles and adapting mid-combat to best suit his scenario.
Weaknesses: If he uses too much of Palutena's Blessings (I.e Power of Flight) his wings will burn up, causing him to die beyond typical resurrection. Very reliant on Palutena for advice, equipment, and guidance. | Same with the Sacred Treasures minus the flight limitations due to having unrestricted flight
Note: Due to Sakurai being the prime developer for both Kid Icarus Uprising and Super Smash Bros., we can take Pit and co's abilities and dialogue as a secondary canon for Kid Icarus's lore since Palutena's guidance stays relative to Kid Icarus's story and even further fleshes its epilogue out.
Note 2: Saving and loading in Kid Icarus can be active once characters get a game over, or wish to return to prior points in the timeline. Saving has been mentioned by several major characters. If the game ends for the current playable character, they can simply come back. A "game over" doesn't only stop at a death. A game over can also be the characters making the wrong choices, getting trapped in a separate universe, possessed, and incapacitation (such as falling forever in an endless void or left completely helpless). This ability can be used passively and across multiple incarnations of the characters. Do also note that a player canonically exists and Kid Icarus as a series is incredibly self-aware of Nintendo as a company, so saving and loading is not a stretch.
