Just one more day now guys until we might see Palutena finally unveiled.

Maan, it's been a long road. From a character-I-thought-could-be-fun-in-Smash-because-she's-likeable-as-hell to one of most likeliest newcomers people can think. (-l<>l-)

I really hope she is revealed in the trailer. If not, then in later updates. She's one of my most wanted newcomers.

Question: despite her possibly being playable, would you guys still like to see codecs involving her and Pit?

Agreed. She's like a must of my (only 2) wants.

Definitely. Forget Snake codecs, for Pit and Palutena's will top his easily. Heck, even if she's playable, that just means more codec possibilities.

^ What he said. Pit+Palutena forever! *insert comment bout lucky angel here* <3

Also, we're down to the last 24 hours, and I can't believe it's that close now, as if time flew fast. I'm so excited to see what the trailer has in store for us.

Palutena and Ganondorf should be rivals and have an event. The Demon king vs The Goddess of Light. Think about how cool that would be.

I really want them to do unique intros for certain matchups, kind of like MvC3. There's so much potential for awesome crossover exchanges.

Best regards, Palutena supporters. Like on every other thread, I'm posting good luck. Some of our favorite characters will be seen in a few hours. Many won't. Let's hope Palutena is among those who are.

I really do expect to see her in about 9 hours.

They always include one female newcomer in each E3 trailer to appease the female fans. Palutena is the really really burningly obvious choice for this.
Unless maybe Dixie steals her thunder but she would be less impressive and crowd pleasing in a trailer with this level of anticipation. Seems like more of a Dojo reveal or unlockable if anything.

I'd love to see her tomorrow, but I have no idea if Uprising was popular enough that she would be considered a worthy choice to generate hype in a reveal trailer. Still, her chances of getting in one way or the other are quite good.

Well, if nothing else, she's an attractive female character with enough fans and a snarky enough personality. That helps!

I love the "You didn't think I was gonna let you have ALL the fun this time, did you Pit?" line idea. It's just so perfect for her.

I agree. Samus in the original, Zelda and Peach in Melee, ZSS in Brawl. Palutena in Smash 4 seems like a good plan.

6 hours, fellow Lady Palutena supporters. I hope we're ready to see if she makes it in the trailer.

And what a fitting avy to support her! It easily says Hot Spring party if she's shown!
We have 1 more hour to wait!

So does anyone else have hope for a second rep (Palutena) because of Pit being one of the first veterans to be shown?

Palutena does still have a chance, but now likely as a secret character if you ask me. I just hope she appears playable later though. I have faith in Sakurai as he did revive the Kid Icarus series, made Pit more epic and as one of the first veterans shown, so I have faith that she'll be in, just revealed later on.

I still believe Palutena will be playable in the game; just a later update. The entire roster has yet to be revealed obviously.

Why is everyone acting like her chances have been smashed?

I still think she will be a starter. We just didn't see the WF Trainer coming as the first female rep.
Palutena will just be a later announcement now. Virtually guaranteed.

Starter or Secret character is fine by me, although starter is better. We can only hope as more characters are shown.

I'm not convinced that she'll be a combatant, but Pit's loss of her shield may have given her a move option.

I believe you mean Pit's Mirror Shield not there. It's likely a reference to when Hades destroyed the 3 Sacred Treasures in KI: Uprising, that of which it would be the reason why Pit needed a move to replace said Mirror Shield. Here enters the Guardian Orbitars of course.
The Mirror Shield and Palutena's shield on her left arm are 2 different shields though. However, since Pit is using the Upperdash Arm and Guardian Orbitars atm outta nowhere, I would hope that should she make it, I would expect one of her moves involves a swing of her shield as a deflector, and having at least 2 projectiles based on her boss fight from Uprising as well.
I'm certain she still has potential, but won't be shown for a while, and I hope I'm right.

Or Palutena is in and Pit has the Three Sacred Treasures as a new Final Smash.

If anything KI being considered important enough to show in the reveal helps her chances.

I prefer raining arrows special *blames Hades*. I have faith Pit's FS will change, while Palutena has her own pretty tricks.
Despite that the Three Sacred Treasures are destroyed in Uprising, there's nothing stopping them to appear in Smash Bros., since Smash isn't canon to begin with.

I guess when you look at it that way, Pit may not be using his 3ST as separate weapons, and will pull out the box with the 3ST in it, and kick it to do that transforming thing. I just hope there isn't much transformation FSes though.

Gotta gather more Palutena fans too, btw. D:

I think Pit having Guardian Orbitars might imply he has Three Sacred Treasures as his Final Smash though? Maybe in a transformation-style, though I feel like Mirror Shield then feels wholly redundant.

We aren't certain bout that though. If we did consider Uprising's 3ST, it was a transformation that had improved attacks (under normal non-weapon mod circumstances) and that Mirror Shield on the shoulder that blocked projectiles. Of course Pit still took damage, and I worry that it may be another Brawl Giga Bowser replica, but Pit style.

Sorry if I bring it up a bit, but I'm aware that this is the Palutena thread. Gotta make sure we don't completely stray away from the Goddess of Light after all. D:

It looks like the focus of the E3 reveals were new series. Maybe even ones no one expected.

I would wait till later down the road for pretty Palutena when they start talking about returning series.

New Parutena (New Parutena Mirror actually) generally translates to Kid Icarus Uprising. Could it mean he has something planned for the KI series in smash4, a possible hint at a playable Palutena or Pit to be even more improved and influenced by KI:U? It sounds like Sakurai indeed has some interesting plans for Kid Icarus stuff in Smash this time around.

Or
Maybe Palutena has a moveset that makes her look like a badass.

I wanted to find a picture of Palutena being a complete badass and ended up digging through fanart... And... eghhhhh.

All I can say is... tsk tsk, fanartists. Tsk. Tsk.

Whacking people with that large staff of hers, swinging that shield to hit opponents and deflect their projectiles, has an array of projectiles, and also likely to have strong kicking moves thanks to her thick and powerful thighs. I can see that now. <3
She's like that long-ranged defensive but strong middle-heavyweight of a female that I always wanted, with a nice bust too. *insert blushing here* <3

Actually, a suspicious lack of a** shots and an odd overabundance of Medusa entangling her with snakes and tickling her feet.

It seems that Palutena fans are... creative.

Well I'm sure I can imagine some cute, and cool ideas for Palutena, though I can't draw, so... yea. D:
Now if we had some KI fans that do great art, we should like flow in. But just watch, if she is announced playable, there will be tons more fanart of her flying about, guaranteed, on dA, and on Pivix. *thinks*
