Aiming


You can aim at Pit’s enemies by sliding the stylus along the Touch Screen. Keep an eye on the green reticle that appears on the upper screen. That’s where your attacks will go.

Your reticle tells you what sort of attack you are about to use. It indicates whether you have a charged shot available, and even tells you if you’re in melee range of a target. If it turns yellow, it means that you’ve picked up a throwing item that is ready to use. Pay attention to the state of the targeting reticle, so that you are not surprised by your own actions in battle!
