Let us debate the theological implications of Smash Bros.
Actually, let's not.

Yes... that's what we were discussing, actually.
Visit my Tumblr! I may say things. The Bureau ProjectWell if you put a god or similar in a fighting game you have to make them a semi-balanced playable and beatable character.
Remember in Mortal Kombat where you could flatout kill Raiden, GOD of thunder? And Fujin, god of wind and Shinnok, god of who gives a fuck.
The King Of Fighters had Orochi, more or less a god as one of its final bosses yet he was beatable
Marvel VS Capcom has Galactus and Dormammu
Hell even Tales of VS lets you beat the shit out of Dhaos with Mighty Kongman.
So its no surprise that even though Palutena and Rosalina are goddesses, they can easily be beaten.
Are explosions science?I think Master Hand does some sort of power balancing himself, like Polygon Man canonically does with his own fighters and All-Star Power.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerZelda is also the Avatar of a goddess.
Then you have Shulk whose Monado allows him to change the future which makes him a low level Reality Warper.
Honestly if Smash were an actual contest most of the people would lose easily to the higher tier characters.
So something which keeps happening in my Wii U copy of Smash Bros 4 which I am really not sure why that is:
In every match, some players start out with a Fire Flower, even though I don't have given Equipment to ANYONE that automatically gives them a Fire Flower to begin with. What could the cause of this be?

I dunno if it's because of that. It's happening way too often...
It's been debunked as a hoax: https://twitter.com/BalrogGameRoom/status/541969782959259648
I mean, I'm not that bothered by it since this game is the first occurrence of me hearing Arceus's voice, but I do feel that it has much more Vocal Dissonance compared to, say, the uproar over Greninja's voice supposedly not fitting it.
Amusingly, listening the voices in the sound test, Lyn sounds... older than I was expecting.

Wait, isn't Rosalina like the ruler of the universe or something?
