Origin
Pit could not use any sort of move like this prior to Super Smash Bros. Brawl, as his bow did not double as a pair of blades. However, it could be based on the Protective Crystal, a circulating barrier item found in Sacred Training Chambers in his game. The item creates two circulating crystals, which would protect Pit from incoming enemies in a similar fashion. This is the only one of Pit's Special Moves not based on one of the Three Sacred Treasures from Kid Icarus.
