==''Super Smash Bros. Series''==
Pit was originally supposed to be in the original ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', but was replaced by [[Jigglypuff]], in order to get more sales (Jigglypuff is from a much more popular series than Pit). He then made a cameo as a collectible [[Trophy]] is ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.
 
He finally became playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Pit is able to shoot light arrows that can be slightly directed, and is also able to break his sacred bow of Palutena into two blades for some up close combat. He can jump multiple times like [[Kirby]] or [[Meta Knight]], and to [[Gliding|glide]]. Pit is voiced by ''Minami Takayama'' in the Japanese version. Pit's side B is called Angel Ring, which is an attack that spins his bow and deflects projectiles, and his Down B is Palutena's Mirror, which allows him to reflect any attack, even moves like Sonic's Spin Dash. However, Pit is still vulnerable to attacks from behind.
 
===[[Solid Snake]] Codec Conversation===
*'''Snake''': [[Otacon]], there's a kid with wings out here. Is he a mutant? Or is he just into costumes?
*'''Otacon''': That's Pit, Snake. Pit is an angel from Angel Land. He's the captain of Palutena's Army.
*'''Snake''': Angels. Give me a break!
*'''Otacon''': I dunno, maybe he's from a different species. But those wings on his back and those mysterious weapons he has are the real deal. He may look young, but he's a veteran warrior. Watch yourself. He used to be a weakling, but countless trials over the years have toughened him up.
*'''Snake''': And by trials, you mean, "[[Game Over]]s"?
*'''Otacon''': Yeah, you should know all about that.
 
====Role in the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Story|Subspace Emissary]]====
[[Image:Subspace_pit.PNG|thumb|left|Pit's snapshot in The Subspace Emissary.]]
In the ''Subspace Emissary'' of ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', Pit joins the story early in the game. He was watching the fight between [[Mario]] and [[Kirby]] at [[Midair Stadium]] when he sees the devastation of the [[Subspace Army]]'s [[Subspace Bomb]], and is sent by [[Palutena]] to go assist the other heroes in defeating the Subspace Army. He hurries down to the world, so he can help the other defeat the Subspace Army. He lands on a spot near the [[Battleship Halberd|Halberd]], and has to fight [[Primid]]s and other Subspace enemies that are appearing. He also finds [[Mario]], transformed into a trophy. He awakens him and the two team up. They soon witness [[Fox]]'s [[Arwing]] chasing after Halberd.
 
Upon reaching solid ground, they find the [[Ancient Minister]] carrying another Subspace Bomb, but they were unable to reach him, and he gets away. What happens next depends on which princess was rescued: if [[Princess Zelda]] was rescued, Pit destroys the [[Dark Cannon]] that [[False Zelda]] is about to fire at [[Link]] and [[Yoshi]], and subseqently fights her with Mario. They are then attacked by Link and Yoshi, who have mistaken False Zelda as the real Zelda. Otherwise, if [[Princess Peach]] was rescued instead, then Pit and Mario are instead targeted by [[False Peach]], who was defeated by Link and Yoshi. Pit and Mario then end up fighting them as well. In both variants, the outcome is similar: the team who defeated the fake princess also defeat the other team, who gets snatched up by [[King Dedede]]'s [[Cargo]]. However, [[Kirby]] arrives and revives the defeated team from their trophy forms. Then either Pit or Link blows out the Cargo's engine and all five go after Dedede.
 
Pit and the others track Dedede down to his castle, but upon entering, they find the throne room in ruins. They explore a nearby cave and eventually find [[Bowser]] getting away with the princess that wasn't rescued in the beginning. Pit fires an arrow Bowser, but this only causes a [[badge]] that the princess was wearing to fall off. Bowser escapes to the Halberd while Kirby eats the badge.
 
Pit and the others eventually find the Ancient Minister again, this time in [[the Wilds]]. After chasing him for a period of time, the [[R.O.B.]]s intervene and detonate the Subspace Bomb that the Minister had been carrying. Pit and the others escape from the blast and reach [[the Canyon]], where they fought hordes from the Subspace Army and meet other heroes. They were eventually joined by even more fighters before entering [[Subspace (SSB)|Subspace]], where they met defeat by [[Tabuu]].
 
Fortunately, King Dedede had designed badges (including the one Kirby ate) to revive fighters from their trophy forms after a set amount of time. With [[Luigi]] and [[Ness]] by his side, Dedede rescues Pit and most of the others, while Kirby saves the remainder of the team. They then explore [[the Great Maze]] before reaching Tabuu for their final battle.
 
===Palutena's Bow===
[[Image:Brawl PitStory.jpg|thumb|left|[[Palutena]] giving Pit her bow.]]
[[image:Palutena_Arrow.jpg|thumb|right|Pit using Palutena's Bow in his standard move, [[Palutena Arrow]].]]
Palutena's Bow is a bow forged by the goddess [[Palutena]] and given to Pit. The Sacred Bow of Palutena, as it is called, can fire magic arrows of light and can be taken apart to be used as twin blades. An unlimited amount of arrows are magically stored in Pit's two wristbands. Once an arrow is fired it is able curve in mid-air, or continue moving straight. The arrows, being magical, can go straight through multiple characters, while still dealing damage to them. If the attack is charged up, then the arrow will only hit the first character it touches.
 
Palutena gives her bow to Pit in the [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl#Story|Subspace Emissary]] mode in ''Super Smash Bros. Brawl'', and is the main weapon that Pit uses in the game.

|''Pit's Final Smash. An image of the goddess Palutena appears, heralding the arrival of Pit's legions, the Centurions. These flying warriors proceed to attack all enemies with fierce savagery. Once a Centurion strikes an enemy, he falls from the sky, never to fly again. Centurions are so fast that dodging them is very hard. Take heart, Centurions! Your deaths are not in vain!
