Heavenly Light (天の光, Heavenly Light) is one of Palutena's alternate neutral special moves in Super Smash Bros. 4.
Overview
When used, a wide vertical pillar of light shines down on Palutena for some time. Any opponent within the light will be damaged. This move does not cause flinching or knockback, but it does have a weak pushing effect. The effect can last longer if the special button is held, its maximum being 3 seconds.
