The Back Shield originated as an item in ''{{s|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}''. Much like in ''SSB4'', it temporarily protects [[Pit]] from enemy attacks from behind and it rotates with Pit to always be behind him. | The Back Shield originated as an item in ''{{s|icaruspedia|Kid Icarus: Uprising}}''.

As the name would suggest, the item protects the fighter's rear from harm. The shield lasts for 30 seconds, with time reduced based on how much damage it has taken (5 [[Home-Run Bat]] swings at 30% damage reduces it by about 5 seconds, for example). Some fighters can also take advantage of their [[back aerial]]s as they won't be damaged from colliding with another fighter's attack. There is a slight [[push]] effect near the shield. | As the name would suggest, the item protects the fighter's rear from harm.

{{Flag|ntsc}} This durable, defensive shield comes to Smash Bros. from Kid Icarus: Uprising. If you pick it up, it will attach itself to you, protecting your back from most threats. It won't stop grabs or piercing attacks, however, and it only lasts so long before vanishing. | |||
{{Flag|pal}} A floating shield from Kid Icarus: Uprising. Pick it up and it'll protect you from attacks from behind. It's not perfect, though, as it can't block grabs or piercing attacks. Still, it'll block any standard attacks until it eventually disappears, so it's a pretty useful thing to get your hands on! | |||

While the Back Shield itself does not have a [[spirit]], the item appears as an ability for the [[primary spirit]] Alm & Celica and the [[support spirit]]s General Pepper, Alolan Exeggutor, Gyromite, Phyllis & Pelly, or Flow. Using any of the listed spirits will give the player a Back Shield at the start of a match. | While the Back Shield itself does not have a [[spirit]], the item appears as an ability for the [[primary spirit]] Alm & Celica and the [[support spirit]]s General Pepper, Alolan Exeggutor, Gyromite, Phyllis & Pelly, or Flow.
