If for w/e reason we can't use custom movesets, I'm hoping we get Reflect, Warp, Explosive Flame and Auto Reticle myself.

Palutena reminds me a bit of Melty Blood actually, where in that game, a character has 3 different versions of themselves. Palutena has a bit of that flair in her, and it'll be awesome seeing the unique playstyles between people because of this.

It makes me sad to see a couple people complaining about her model... I think she looks absolutely beautiful. She will most definitely be the first character I use when I finally get my hands on the game (assuming she's a starter).
I wish she would've been playable in the invitational, would've loved to see a pro use her.

Since I host my own tournaments, I don't have to worry about banning Palutena customization.

In real tournaments however....
That makes me wonder, will we be getting something similar to Tournament hosting - like how Mario Kart 8 has it - in Smash 4? That'd be a nice little incentive for the Wii U version.

I posted this in another thread for Palutena, but I think it would go better here since people are actually talking about all the moves.


*Palutena is a unique character as her customization options give new moves instead of altering existing ones. It is impossible to say what her starting moveset is until we are told from Sakurai himself.
Smashes:
:GCR::GCA: while running.

Palutena quickly rushes forward and attacks.
:GCR::GCA: while running.

Palutena stops opponents in place.
:GCA:

Palutena hits the target with her staff multiple times.
:GCR::GCA:

Palutena rushes forward and attacks with her shield.
:GCL::GCA:?

In a quick motion Palutena launches herself forward. Similar to Pikachu's rocket move.
:GCR::GCA:

Palutena quickly rotates her staff and hits anyone in range.
:GCU::GCA:

Palutena rains down rays of light on opponents inflicting damage on anyone caught.
:GCU::GCA:

Palutena knocks the target upwards with a huge flash of light.
:GCD::GCA:

Palutena spreads her wings in a downwards movement and hits targets around her.
Aerials:
:GCA:

Palutena swings her staff around her hitting anyone in front or behind her.
:GCR::GCA:

Palutena calls upon her wings and quickly push them forwards to attack.
Throws:
:GCU::GCA:

Palutena grabs the opponent and throws them upwards.
Specials:
:GCB:

Palutena teleports similar to zelda's farore's wind. She can teleport forwards and backwards in the video so this could possibly be a side B move or even an up B. This move looks like the only option for a Neutral B that doesn't fit anywhere else though.
:GCU::GCB:

Palutena takes flight in the sky.
:GCU::GCB:

In a quick motion Palutena glides upwards and explodes anyone around her.
:GCL::GCB:

Palutena surrounds enemies in a ball of fire.
:GCR::GCB:?

Palutena summons fire from the ground and lights the enemy on fire.
:GCR::GCB:

Palutena shoots projectiles towards the target.
:GCD::GCB:

Palutena counters when an opponent lands a hit.
:GCD::GCB:?

Reflects projectiles in front of Palutena. Looks like a great edge guard move!
It has been confirmed that every character will have 4 specials with 3 variants each except Palutena and Miis that will have 12 UNIQUE SPECIALS so every attack with a name under your normal section actually belong to her special section: Heavenly Light, Angelic Missile, Lightweight and Super Speed are Specials. Source Smash website, she never mention by name her normal attacks

Are they still on that? I thought the real Lady Palutena disconfirmed that one...

Probably the contrast between the Anime cut scene and her general expression on the model.

Remember that so did Megaman back in the day and look how expressive he is now for being a robot. Regardless we haven't seen any "aggressive" move of hers zoomed in.

It still feels kind of like a dream that she's in the game. I've looked through the pictures of her on the smash website like 50 times :4palutena: so happy:)

You have my support for sure! And I shall offer hearts to the Goddess of Light as well. <3

And from here on, whenever we need some social goodness or more importantly, future Palutena matchup or move discussions, we shall consider a... Divine Intervention.


Hope she doesn't chew me out for that one.

I never thought some would rate her that low. She deserves much more praise.

Yea, I'm honestly really shocked. I'm pretty sure Pac-Man is beating her now... why?
I like that he's in a lot, but they treated his reveal more poorly than anybody else. It was not all that hype.

If we had rated them yesterday I'm sure she'd be getting higher scores, E3 hype is dying down and everybody is getting salty over the lack of certain villains. Makes me sick that anybody could rate her below Lincoln Miis.

I was terribly against Pac-Man, and still am. They're probably gonna use the mascot battle or w/e routine with him, while Palutena was guaranteed, with the best trailer of the 3. They'll probably won't understand such graceful quality that Palutena has. *feels sad*

I was never outright against Pac-Man, I just think people wanted him for the wrong reason. Unlike Palutena, Pac-Man supporters mostly don't care about the character, they just want to fulfill the "4 player mascot showdown" thing with Mario, Sonic, and Mega Man.

I guess I don't see how it matters all that much at this point, she and Pacman are both in the game that case is already close, whether she meets some kind of satisfaction rate in a forum game over another character seems kind of pointless.

It's just a game-
-that I want to conform to my beliefs. :laugh:
It's just for fun, but I want her to get a good score.

It really annoys me that there's so many people hating on the character and the game without having even freaking touched Kid Icarus Uprising.

First Rosalina and now Palutena ... sometimes people just really want to hate on the new powerful women of Smash.

And seriously, rating Miis over Palutena to me just scream delusion.

Regarding her expression, I think she looks fantastic and definitely has emotion


I look forward to see what she looks like when she gets star KO'd. Love those animations, they look so much better.

Understood, since you went through the effort to tag me I felt I should still respond even if it's just to say I don't play the forum games, heh.

I can't belive what happened today in that thread, that thread so far was pro Palutena but today she recibes bad scores because she was showed first than Pacman? people can't be serious
But so far the worst complain is that "she has 12 moves" I can't belive that we don't know her normals but people already call her uninteresting, before seen LESS THAN A MINUTE OF GAMEPLAY sometimes I can understand humanity.

I'm just gonna imagine that they're just jealous of Palutena's amazing looks, grace, and elegance. I know how you feel though. Poor Palutena. Those jerks don't know quality when it's staring em in the face, about to cast a black hole and shoot a mega laser at them. Some fake loyal people these days.

Can someone please tell me what she says during the part where Mario fights Diddy Kong? Especifically at minute 2:25 here:


English isn't my first language and I can't really get some of the things she says during that part. I also don't get the part where she says "Many _____ foes have gathered here".

That is not Palutena it's Viridi but I don't understand well either

Viridi says "I guess angels only TALK big", making fun of Pit needing Palutena.

Palutena then says "Many worthy foes have gathered here, and I won't hold back from anyone."

at least I think that's it, going from memory here xD

Ohh so is that Viridi talking? That makes more sense now. I was irked by the difference of pitches; I thought it was Palutena talking all the time. Thanks guys!

Part with Diddy Kong (Directly after Pit says "you don't have to prove anything to me Lady Palutena")
"Hmph, look like angels only talk big."

Other Part:
"Many worthy foes have gathered here."

EDIT: Ninja'd to death

'Many worthy foes have gathered here, and I won't hold back on anyone.' @ C3CC C3CC
The other quote you asked for is Viridi, not Palutena. :)

Edit: ninja'd. Ninja'd hard.

And seriously, rating Miis over Palutena to me just scream delusion.
I only rated Mii 5% higher, because I expected little from them, and surprisingly liked how they turned out. Palutena had me less hyped because her attacks, while cool, are exactly how I imagined they would look. Basically it's just a matter of comparing my thoughts for the characters would look ingame pre and post reveal, which is why I rated Pac-man and Mii above Palutena; they went above and beyond my low expectations. Dont get me wrong, I'm still excited for the character, just less excited than the other two, mainly because I already liked Palutena, but Pac-man and Mii's reveals got me to go from liking from indifferent and hate respectively.

I apologize if I offended any Palutena supporters by rating Mii higher.

Now if the rate their chances thing was specifically for trailers, Palutena would have all my hype, because Shaft.

@BluePsychic Understandable, I'm thinking more of extreme cases of Miis being considerably above Palutena. 5% in the greater context is a pretty minor difference.

And specifically the cases where the complaints about Palutena are more severe for the Miis. I've addressed this in that particular thread, but bottom line is people are taking this 12-moveset Palutena thing out of proportion while acting like the 3 Miis thing was reasonable.

I really hope those glasses of her's make an appearance some where in the game, just so she adds some more humor to the game.
Even better; she somehow gets the glasses when Screen KO'd. Screen KOs are already humorous enough, but if one were to add the glasses...

Seriously? People are complaining about customization? That's...weird.

Palutena: 80.77%
Pac-Man: 78.05%
Mii Fighter: 49.42%

We win ;)
Very happy with these scores. I love Palutena. I like Pac-Man. And I don't care for Miis.

Since Little Mac taking off his pink jumpsuit is his entrance, I could see her taking off the glasses being her entrance.
