A frequent theme is power and its limits. Writers like to explore how powerful Dark Pit can be and what could potentially hold him back. Friendship or the lack thereof is also a common theme.

Whether Dark Pit is fighting against his pre - determined fate or embracing it is a popular plot device in these fanfictions.
Themes related to the world of Kid Icarus are also popular. Fanfictions might expand on the lore, like exploring different regions of the game world, or introducing new mythical creatures.

One common theme is self - identity. Since Dark Pit is a clone, many fanfictions explore his struggle to figure out who he really is.
Another theme is self - discovery. As they interact more, both Pit and Dark Pit often discover new aspects of themselves.

It's all about how their relationship impacts their individual growth. This can be seen in various fanfictions where they face challenges that force them to look within themselves.
