Did you guys see the new screenshots of Dark Pit, now I want to call him Angry Pit.

He also has angrier or more aggressive expressions in Uprising, so it makes sense. Suits his personality.

Once more, the Wii U pictures bring the characters to life much more than the 3DS version thanks to the higher level of detail.

Hi

Trying my hand in "maining" Dark Pit in the Wii U version

 

[Nabbitnator]

I like how how black pit works for me. he has slightly better knockback then regular pit and more damage.

Now people can stop saying Dark Pit took anyone's spots.

 

[Tsutori]

My favorite screenshot from the ones released today is the one where he's glaring at Palutena. The shade is real.

Isn't that basically what Dark Pit is?

...if it wasn't obvious already. It probably took them a week at most to add him to the roster. There's no reason to complain when it was essentially a choice between Dark Pit and nothing. And besides, I like him better than the real Pit.

Hey, anybody have an SSBWIKI account? DP's page is preeety far off.

What's your favorite color option for Dark Pit? I favor the Purple shade, myself.

 

[LunarDistortion]

Personally, I prefer the air Dark Pit's third color swap (I don't know how to describe it, it has more colorful, blue hair than others.)

Just good ol' regular Dark Pit, though the purple one is quite nice.

 

[Burgundy]

I've been using mainly the red and yellow palette swaps, sometimes using the Pit swap as well.

Where is the tips and strategy guide thread at? Seems like people only care about Pit?

They share one, actually. It just hasn't been linked to both boards because I haven't rewriten it into a proper guide yet. And there's a touch of outdated information though.

I really need to get to work on that...

Yo, so I don't know how much has already been found out and cause I am just playing Dark Pit and apparently I was watching the wrong thread and just thought this section was dead. lol But did anyone know about Canceling his Side B onto the stage when off stage? It gives some nice slidage onto stage but idk how good. When I first saw this I was using the Custom Side B that has farther range and that one made it look cool.
Cause it is weird.

I've known, but we don't really understand the properties. It seems random if it'll just slide along or go the full length and then slide.

What if Dark Pit gets a trailer at Thursday and he ends up being the last character officially announced?

 

[LuffyLink]

I don't think he'll have a trailer because he's already confirmed but I think we'll see him in 's trailer.

 

[BluePikmin11]

I'll be ticked at Sakurai if he gets a trailer, that's a twist that I would expect Sakurai to do.

 

[Burgundy]

With so much info coming out on Thursday, I wouldn't be surprised if Bowser Jr. got his trailer too. But Duck Hunt is definitely happening cause of Sakurai's subtle teasing today.

 

[True Blue]

What if then they gave Dark Pit his OWN moveset! lol jk. Would be cool but doubt that would ever happen. Sadness. lol
I wish the pit brigade's Down B came out faster... Or at least didn't have the omega lag that he has. Unless someone found out some awkward way to cancel it. lol

I reeaaallly want that to happen..
That's like my #1 thing on my DLC wishlist now.

 

[LuffyLink]

Personnally, I would prefer the air Dark Pit as a semi clone because he's also a clone in KIU and he has 2 signature weapons: the Dark Pit Staff and the Silver Bow, so I think they should be more represented than the other weapons, he would use the staff on the ground and his Bow in the air (And I would love the Great Sacred Treasure as his Final Smash), but yeah, that would be cool if they give a new moveset for Dark Pit.

I'd be kinda disappointed, since I plan on using DP as an extension of Pit and all.

Dspecial canceling... Well, you can slide off the ledge if you get some aerial momentum going, and that's enough to escape most characters long enough to not be punished for it.

Dark pit can't kill worth a **** and landing bair sweetspot is so hard, forward smash is too laggy. wat do

Electroshock, Fthrow, Dthrow and Usmash, and switching to Pit and using his Ftilt are good options. But really, I rarely get outright KOs. DP is about intercepting recoveries.

 

[Milo AKA Papa]

Dark Pit is love, Dark pit is life.

Never forget

 

[Central IL Smash]

No, I'm the original here

 

[Noss92]

... Mr Game & Watch neutral B!

 

[tyhiggz]

hahaha. Surprisingly good ledge-guard. Makes me want to side b him in the face.

 

[Ziem'sPit]

Oh now this is just perfect. XD

 

[young grasshopper]

... Mr Game & Watch neutral B!

take that down before the G&W community gets any ideas. They don't know we hate them yet

 

[Flaxr XIII]

Yes that happens to me a lot vs Game and Watch. You sure that's not me in the video? xD
Of course not. I don't use that color, nor am I named connor...

 

[Nocally]

Pikachu got a similar tactic using his ground hogging thunder bolt.

It's much easier to reflect that, at least.

According to the Palutena's Guidence for Dark Pit, apparently Dark Pit now works as an officer for Viridi's Forces of Nature, and he's fine with it since him and Viridi share the same interests.

 

[BandanaWaddleDee]

Kid Icarus Uprising 2 confirmed. JK

I don't care if you're just joking, we need that game. We need it. Also, combine that video with the Dark Pit Staff trophy in the 3DS version, and you've got a lot of extra canon added onto Uprising. Smash doesn't do that much, but it sure does with KI.

Oh and it'd actually be Kid Icarus 4.

If they released a KI game on the Wii U, I'd buy a Wii U in a heartbeat.

What interests does he have other than these three?
1. Kicking ***
2. Being free
3. Kicking Pit's ***

I kinda thought he grew out of three after the Chaos Kin incident made
him realize their existences are linked.
