A) This is assuming this is an aspect of the game that Sakurai directly oversaw. While he has said that oversees every aspect, it's likely that he himself didn't write all of the dialogue.
I suppose you could then argue that Sakurai could've said to the writers "Go nuts, but be sure to make Krystal say this," but I think it is just banter. I'd argue it's merely referring to the fact that Krystal has been seen fighting while Slipp and Peppy have not (excluding fighting while inside there Arwings I mean.) Krystal is, after all, the only one of them that has done actual on-screen direct combat.
B) This is assuming that the English translation caries the same meaning as the Japanese version.
I'd be curious to see the directly-translated dialogue, actually, if you can find 'em.
C) This is assuming that Sakurai does indeed leave "hints," which could just be unintentional on his part if he does indeed directly write every line of text and dialogue. And that these "hints" are always directly translated. (Or at least retain direct meaning.)
Specifically for Pit's trophy, "Will Pit ever fight again?" seems more like that it was simple observation that Kid Icarus came out more than ten years ago. Literally asking: "Hey, you know, this guy's game was a really long time ago...do you think he'll ever get another game?" Just like any other gamer would ask.
