Silver Bow

The Silver Bow is a weapon introduced in Kid Icarus: Uprising as a prototype to the Palutena Bow and Dark Pit's signature weapon, also used as Dark Pit's neutral special move in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U. Dark Pit shoots a dark arrow from the bow that can be charged by holding down the button, and aimed in one of three directions (left, right, and up) while charging. Compared to Pit's Palutena Bow, the arrow does not travel as far and cannot be controlled as well, but it deals more damage.

Like the Palutena Bow, the custom variations for this move are the Piercing Bow and Guiding Bow. Piercing Bow takes longer to charge and the arrow takes longer to control, but the arrow deals more damage and can travel through opponents. Guiding Bow allows greater control over the arrow as it travels, but the shots move slower and do not deal as much damage.
