The Phoenix, known simply as the The Immortal Phoenix, is a minor antagonist in Kid Icarus: Uprising. It doesn't serve any army, but it is the guardian of the Wish Seed, a seed said to be capable of granting wishes. According to legend, whoever fells the Phoenix can take the Wish Seed. It makes its first appearance in the tenth chapter, where Pit encounters it to get to the Wish Seed.
Biography[]
When Palutena notice a lot of Hades' minions were heading towards the Phoenix Mountain, she immediately knew that they were after the Wish Seed. She sent Pit to stop the army and acquire the Wish Seed. However, in order to get the Wish Seed, Pit had to face the Phoenix that guards the Seed. Eventually, Hades, after making up a story about a little girl, confirmed Palutena's suspicions that the Wish Seed was a fake. His actual plan is to make the greedy humans believe that the legends are real, but most can't go into Phoenix Mountain due to the intense heat. Hades wanted them to think that someone managed to take it out, and then they'll all kill for it each giving resources for the Underworld. However, Pit still has to destroy the Phoenix to stop the war that continuously rages nearby since it could destroy humanity if released.
Eventually, Pit manages to encounter the Phoenix and confronted it, and Pit (or some Underworld minions) manages to destroy the Wish Seed and defeat the Phoenix. Unfortunately, a beacon appears after the Phoenix was defeated which alerts the humans, making them indeed think someone made off with the Wish Seed. This causes a large war to break out so that the last one standing would "get it", just as Hades had planned, he knew that no human could possibly resist something that could grant wishes. Viridi got mad at this and set a reset bomb onto a warring battlefield.
Despite it getting defeated by Pit, the Phoenix returned in the Great Scared Treasure Trials as a creation of Lord Dyntos. It fought roughly the same way as before, and just like before, the Phoenix was defeated by Pit. Dyntos commented that it was tragic that the bird fell because of a "little" angel, but Pit justifies that it tried to kill him first, he was quite upset that he had to defeat it again.
Trivia[]
- In-battle, the Immortal Phoenix is called a male, bearing he/his/him pronouns.
- According to Palutena, the Phoenix will come back to life and its eggs make great omelets.
- A possible reason the Phoenix was protecting the Wish Seed from anyone was because it's aware that the Wish Seed was a fake, and that its death will only let out a beacon which alerts everyone that someone had made off with the Wish Seed, which neither of them hasn't, and that'll result in an all-out war for it. So it was actually guarding the Wish Seed as means of preventing a breakout of a huge war.
