After sharing part of it with Rex to revive him after he was fatally stabbed, and "X"-shaped piece is missing from it, fused to Rex's chest to keep him alive. An overhead crescent slash with the Aegis Sword ablaze that ends in a delayed somersault, resembling the up aerials of most of the Fire Emblem characters. Boasts great power like her other aerials, and it autocancels almost immediately after the hitboxes cease, making it a hard move to contest in the air. Because of this, Pyra/Mythra are the respective second and third fighters whose Fighter Spirits are marked as "Name (Fighter)", due to already having regular spirits in the base game. Pyra is one of the few fighters who says a line when KO'd, occasionally saying, "I'm sorry!" ( やられました..., I've been finished...)

Overall, Pyra is a hard-hitting, yet surprisingly versatile swordswoman who excels at punishing. She must be patient to look for openings due to her slow mobility and poor disadvantage state. In addition, Pyra is best utilized when she and Mythra have the advantage so as to alleviate their respective weaknesses and amplify their respective strengths, whereas it is considered best to switch to her counterpart to keep advantage due to Mythra's sheer flexibility and vastly superior movement. Blazing End had its collision activate earlier to better match the animations and its animation changed to be more visual from certain camera angles. Nintendo revealed the addition of Pyra and Mythra during a Nintendo Direct presentation in February. The pair appear in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 as main character Rex’s two-in-one ally, and they’re invited to Smash Bros. later this month.

A spinning outward slash in front of herself with the Aegis Sword ablaze. It has a wide hitbox, capable of hitting opponents below and above her consistently, making it great for catching jumps. It also boasts great KO power, making it great for edgeguarding. However, it cannot autocancel in a short hop. According to Sakurai, he and the development team went through a lot of trial and error before settling on Pyra's design for Smash Bros. [3] When fighting both Master Hand and Crazy Hand in Classic Mode, Pyra (or Mythra) will start on the far left side of the stage rather than in the center. This also occurs with Sephiroth and Sora in their respective Classic Mode routes. A fire ether-infused palm thrust, similar to Lucario's forward throw. Pyra's strongest throw, although it is still extremely weak compared to conventional KO throws.

I sail my own 24ft Hurley from Poole Yacht Club and I have crewed in PYRA events over the past 4 years or so. Have you just finished your navigation course and want to try out your skills, or perhaps you fancy the delights of cruiser racing. Perhaps you have had enough of being dunked in the water and needing a wet suit, be warned cruiser racing isn’t always warm and dry! The blade trail effect of the Aegis was tweaked several times, particularly the flame effect to reduce potential hitbox jank.

The stage choice is a reference to the mid-boss room in the Water Temple where Link fights Dark Link in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
