Pit is currently ranked 17th on the [[tier list]], placing him at the bottom of the C tier. Pit possesses one of the best [[projectile]]s in ''Brawl'' with his [[Palutena's Bow]], as it is fast, chargeable, has range that covers the entire stage, and gives Pit a great amount of control over its trajectory. Pit also has one of the best recoveries in ''Brawl'', possessing multiple [[midair jump]]s, a [[glide]], and a recovery move in [[Wings of Icarus]] that gains the greatest distance of any in ''Brawl'', as well as giving him complete control over his movement during the move. Additionally, Pit possesses fast attacks throughout his moveset, above average movement speed and good mobility, one of the strongest [[planking]] capabilities, and two effective [[reflector]]s. Pit, however, has problems with [[KO]]ing opponents, as he is a rather weak character that does not possess many finishers, and he heavily relies on his [[back aerial]] and [[forward smash]] to KO (the former requiring the landing of the initial hitbox while being short-ranged, and the latter being heavily prone to [[stale-move negation]] while being [[SDIable]] out of). Additionally, Pit's recovery is especially vulnerable to [[gimp]]ing, as if he is flinched during [[Wings of Icarus]], he cannot use the move again until landing. Pit also has rather short [[reach]] in his attacks, despite being a sword character. Overall, Pit has rather good [[matchup]]s (losing only a handful and being hard countered by only {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}), and while his [[tournament]] results are below average in American tournaments, they are much stronger [[Japanese tier list|in Japan]], where he is ranked 8th on their tier list at the top of the A tier.

Pit starts off watching the stadium match between {{SSBB|Mario}} and {{SSBB|Kirby}} through a reflecting pool in a sky palace.  After witnessing the invasion of the [[Subspace Army]] interrupting the match, the goddess [[Palutena]] summons him and sends him to attack the Subspace Army, providing him the [[Palutena Bow]]. He eventually meets and teams up with {{SSBB|Mario}}, after battling through a [[Greap]]. {{SSBB|Mario}}, stuck in trophy form, is awakened by and joins forces with Pit to fight off the Subspace Army.

Later, they chase after the [[Ancient Minister]] but fail to catch him.  If the player rescued {{SSBB|Zelda}}, Pit and Mario would face off against a clone of her made from [[Shadow Bug]]s. {{SSBB|Link}}, who was passing by with {{SSBB|Yoshi}}, was furious because he thought that the copy of Zelda was the real thing so he and Yoshi attack Pit and Mario. When the player wins against Link and Yoshi, they are turned into trophies and are captured by {{SSBB|King Dedede}} but are rescued by {{SSBB|Kirby}}. Kirby revives Link and Yoshi, then Link fires an arrow at the car that King Dedede stole from {{SSBB|Wario}} to slow him down. Pit, Mario, Link, Yoshi and Kirby then team up to stop King Dedede.

*'''[[Event 4: Cleaning House in Skyworld]]''': Pit must destroy all of the breakable terrain on [[Skyworld]] while avoiding Wario, who will try and interfere with Pit's efforts of doing so.

*'''[[Event 20: All-Star Battle x1]]''': Pit is one of the eight opponents fought in this event along with {{SSBB|Wario}}, {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, {{SSBB|Zero Suit Samus}}, {{SSBB|Olimar}}, {{SSBB|Lucas}}, {{SSBB|Diddy Kong}}, and the {{SSBB|Pokémon Trainer}}.

*'''[[Co-Op Event 5: The Yoshi Team of 50]]''': {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} and Pit must KO all 50 {{SSBB|Yoshi}}s on [[Rainbow Cruise]] before completing one lap of the stage.
