Lethiniums (ダリオス Dariosu, "Darios") are Forces of Nature enemies that debuted in Kid Icarus: Uprising.
Physical appearance[]
When inactive, the Lethinium is a large, animated flower with three orange and pink petals, and dark speckles scattered across its face.
When active, a yellow eye shines through the center, the dark speckles light up, and its petals rotate as it fires laser beams.
Appearances[]
Kid Icarus: Uprising[]
The Lethinium's only attack involves firing long-range laser beams at its foes. It will lock onto its target and adjust its position accordingly, then fire while remaining stationary. However, its range is limited, and its lasers cannot pierce through walls.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS[]
Lethiniums are enemies in the Smash Run mode of Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS. A Lethinium remains stationary, pointing at the player's fighter while charging before finally shooting a powerful, continuous beam at them. Unlike in Kid Icarus: Uprising, a Lethinium's attacks can fire through obstacles. Defeating them grants the player power-ups.
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U[]
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, shadow versions of Lethiniums appear during the Master Fortress battle in Classic Mode, guarding the interior of the Master Fortress.
Idol Description[]
Lethinium[]
The big guns in the Forces of Nature. Lethiniums often grow near bases or areas requiring defense and shoot a powerful laser beam. Not the best flower to use when saying "I'm sorry."
Trophy Information[]
These petalled pests from Kid Icarus: Uprising are the big guns in the Forces of Nature. If you get close to one in Smash Run, it'll fire a wide beam that even cuts through terrain. However, while firing, it leaves its back totally exposed. Get behind it, and take it out with a special or a smash attack.

Trivia[]
- The Lethinium possibly draws its name from the word "lethal," as well as the common flower suffix "-inium."
- In addition, its Japanese name, Darios, is likely derived from the Dahlia flower, as the katakana for its name (ダリオス Dariosu) shares two of the same symbols with the flower (ダリア Daria).
