Palutena thrusts the staff forward. Hold the button down, and the staff charges up, dealing repeating hits. When you release the button, she thrusts forward a bit further and can launch an opponent.

Autoreticle
Palutena projects a triangular field in front of her, which automatically targets an opponent inside it. It will only target one opponent at a time. She then fires three shots toward the targeted opponent. The shots cannot track the opponent, so they can be dodged.
Explosive Flame
Palutena creates a fiery explosion directly in front of her. This always appears at a fixed distance from her.
Heavenly Light
Palutena summons rays of light all around her to damage nearby foes. Hold the button down to prolong the effect. The light deals gradual damage, but doesn't make enemies flinch.

Reflect Barrier
Palutena creates a barrier in front of her which moves forward a short distance. It can reflect projectiles, and can push opponents back as it moves. This move also damages opponents who are near enough when the barrier appears.

Angelic Missile
Palutena launches herself straight forward and flies headfirst. This can both deal damage and serve as a recovery move.
Super Speed
Palutena rushes forward at great speed. Note the functional differences between this and Angelic Missile. Angelic Missile keeps her airborne when used in the air, while Super Speed does not. Angelic Missile stops when she hits an opponent, while Super Speed keeps her barging right though opponents, sending them flying. Super Speed also has a bit of cooldown time before it can be used again.

Warp
This acts just like Zelda's Teleport. Input the command, then hold in the direction you want to go. Palutena teleports a certain distance in the chosen direction. She will go into the helpless state after she appears and until she lands. This can't deal damage, it's just for recovery and evasion.

+
+
Jump Glide
Palutena launches herself upwards, then descends slowly to the ground. This serves as a third jump. She can easily float sideways during her descent. It doesn't deal damage, however.
Rocket Jump
Palutena creates an explosion under her feet, damaging nearby opponents and propelling herself straight up into the air. This serves as a third jump. She goes into the helpless state on the way down.
+
+
+
Counter
This works just like Marth's Counter. Activate it right before an attack hits, and Palutena blocks the attack and strikes back with her staff.
+
+

Lightweight
This is a buff spell. It greatly enhances her speed for a few seconds; however, once it wears off, she'll be slowed down for a few more seconds before returning to normal speed. Her defense is also reduced while it's active.
Celestial Firework
Palutena creates a firework in front of her which rises straight up into the air and explodes, damaging nearby enemies.

Final Smash - Black Hole Laser
Palutena creates a black hole in front of her which sucks in nearby enemies and holds them in place. She then dashes off screen and fires a huge Mega Laser through the center of the black hole to deal damage to the trapped enemies.
