I might as well post up a vid of me vs. a top tier character in a tournament, particularly Fox, because I'll be reppin Pichu in a certain tourney. I'll post them when it's done.

dude... you made a pichu guide, that in itself deserves to be commended great job, theres nothing i like more than humiliating my sheik playing friend by beating him with pichu and taunt cancelling every kill... i believe you may only need cuteness to win after all.. very frustrating for him ^_____^

You did a really great job on your Pichu guide. I wanted to get your permission to post it on SSBBrawl.com. It is a new forum similar to Smashboards, but it is a lot smaller.

Please PM whenever you get the chance. Thanks man.

On a more serious note, Pichu's goggle-costume is enough reason to play him alone.

As a rather intellegent llama once said to me: NGCXX's Pichu is so good that a blind man once underwent surgery to reverse his blindness, just so that he could see the brilliance of it.

That day was a weird day. I saw a clock melt, too. The world just gets too weird for me at times.

I read this playing guide on Pichu, Coen, and I really liked it. No, like is an understatement, more like love it! Because of this guide I learned from my errors in my previous Pichu playing a time ago and actually got way better. If you aren't sure who I am I think you remember me on IM, NGCXX (the dude that always asks you if you're way too busy to talk to). Anyways, keep up the good work.

Well, not using pichu as one of my mains, but I do enjoy using him, and he is my top secondary. It's so great that you wrote this, all other pichu guides s*cked, but then you came along and wrote the best pichu guide ever. Thank you. Great that you did this, and I'm glad NJZ liked it.

"light" shouldn't be a pro. you should use the word "floatyish" or something :p

and a fast short hop should be a pro (instead of a con) cause it allows for faster uh stuff. i don't think shorthop difficulty should ever be considered when evaluating a character


good job. +rep for you :)

mcc: I agree with you and I will change it ^^ I made the shorthopping a con because it's harder to learn, I don't remember why I didn't make it a pro in the first place, but whatever. =p

No ****tin me O_o
I read the whole thing xD

Watch Bleach -> read guide while next epi is loading -> Watch Bleach -> read guide while next epi is loading -> etc. ^^

I am sorry, I read the Taunt part and I am only 15 years old ;(
What should I do? I am so scared right now, I don't know what to do against pro Pichu's anymore cause they will pwn the hell out of me with the incredible taunts of Pichu O_o

Pichu should be top tier man, if only players would use taunt combo's more he would probably win tourneys and stuff all the time, just like fox X_X

I still can't believe it,
Thank you 4 showing me the light, I will start playing Pichu with his incredible taunt power O_O

Pichu is my new favorite character to play, but I'm not very good with him yet. I aspire to be great with pichu. Guide is teh 1337.

EDIT: My banner has Pichu in it!

"Shorthop: It’s just as hard to shorthop with Pichu as with Pika. "

Is this really true? Because while I have an easy time sh-ing with Pichu I have a harder time w/ Pika >.>
IMO Pichu is easier to use than Pika...

edit: hmm k thx mcc, strange...

anyway, I felt that I needed to read this some time, so I did... and yes, it's brilliant. But taunt combo: Taunt to Shield grab = fun too ^_^

mcc: Peach always has a huge advantage no matter what.

Gimpy: It's a novelty character ^^ LOL @ me saying that. Thanks for the reply :p

And everyone else too, thanks ^^ I feel honoured.

And Gimpy, if you ever revisit this thread, take a look at Con # 8 ;)

Running underneath a jolt wall...
Yay, I finally got a chance to finish reading this! You did an awesome job with this, and i loved the taunt section...not to mention the running jolt wall :chuckle: This should definitely help me develop my Pichu more.


Con # 8: Gimpyfish dislikes Pichu. Don't expect him to respect you if you're gonna play Pichu.
That's a pretty steep con there, don't you think? '>_>

Add more matchups! I saw in a thread that you almost completely coverd Chu's matchup with Luigi, so I know you can do it.

And you got me to main pichu. That is good.

I look forward to the video guide!

Nice Guide! I've always used Pichu to slap cocky *******s in the face, and now I can do that all the more effectively. I'd go through and spell check though. You've got a lot of errors, including two rather crucial ones: In the part about the down-b you said that you "cant" dodge it by shorthopping to the side, and I'm pretty sure that you meant that you can. In the ledgecrawl >100% you said forgot the word don't when you said "you probably should overuse this, for obvious reasons." These errors might be confusing to some people. Other than that nice job. I learned a lot.
