Why did you write it in a paste bin, and not smashboards?
Not familar with how this site completely works yet, honestly. Since there were no pictures I don't think anyone would mind.

Still makes it more convenient to have it on here.

Quickly reading this there are couple things you have left out. First off you don't mention the Olimar's side-b can shield poke, or that different Pikmin have different weight values for Up-B. You also don't explain the exact side-b damage percents for each color.

That's just a few things I've noticed through the guide. I'll probably do an actual read of it later on. I've never heard of you as a player before so I am skeptical of your advice, but if it helps people than go for it. I myself have a guide that will be heavily updated one of these days. (When I get everything I need)

I've been playing Olimar for a while now but I just made this account yesterday, so sorry about that! I'd love some advice though. I'll try to update it.

Uhh is there any particular advice you're looking for? We discuss things quite a bit in the Olimar boards.

Nothing paticularly. Just anything I didn't mention I'm not aware about. Custom moves too, since Olimar only seems to have about 2 useful ones.

I don't really dabble with customs for Olimar since I think all of his are bad. If you look in one of the Olimar threads you can see me explain why. (Can't remember which thread)

They aren't all too terrible. Pikmin Tackle is kinda cool.

I just don't like how long the other neutral b's take to load pikmin up.

Order Tackle is the only one I use in tournaments, and it's actually really good. Tackle/Sticky Pikmin Throw is heavily matchup specific, but totally usable and is beast in the right matchups. Hardy Pikmin maybe, but I never would use it due to decreased overall grab range.

All the rest are pretty garbage.

Very good guide. I especially like your comment on Kirby. I once did exactly that (as Kirby), and the camping was amazing.
Would have been easier if directly on Smashboards. Can't you just copy-paste an edit?

Thanks! I was planning to copy and paste this to the guides section sometime soon.
