Pika Pika PIKACHU!

Pika Pika PIKACHU!

Very good and informative guide of how to play Pikachu in super smash bros 4.
Good guide, would like some more info on combos/lower percentages. Thanks!
Definitely a nice guide, I appreciate it c: If there's something I'd add it would be that at lower percents it's usually better to forward throw people into a jablock. After that you could use a smash attack or another throw combo to get them straight to mid percents. You also didn't talk much about spacing, but other than that I do think this is a useful guide!
Percentage data is helpful. But lacks elsewhere...
Very informative. I needed to improve my neutral game with Pikachu and this helped!
I'm going to have to study this later. This was very good, but I'd like to add a few things.

1.) If your timing is right, Pikachu can DASH under certain uncharged projectiles (Fox/falco blaster, uncharged lucario/mewtwo/samus/zss/Wii-fit trainer neutrals, some charged shots.) I have done this on accident a lot, and it's part luck, but it's definitely possible.
2.) It is REALLY easy to get out of combos as Pikachu. (and can be fun, leading into combos as well.)
3.) Turn->grab, turn->tilt, turn->smash. All three of these require different timing to execute properly, without any lag from stopping and/or the turning animation. I'll admit I don't really use them a whole lot, but they are still rather useful.

All that said, I liked this guide a lot. Learned a few things for sure :P
Nice! Very in depth
Very good. Nice work :D!

Thanks, I am thinking about making a new one later
Very informative
thanks
Awesome guide. Only thing I'd like to mention is that the down tilt can trip, and that pikachu can crawl under some projectiles. I recently picked up pikachu and I love him. I've been playing him for fun since melee, and he was the first character I played.

Thank You, I added then into the Pros of Pikachu, These will help people to dodge against his moves can in turn help to boost his rankings. Pikachu is my Pokemon representative that I play because I never played him before and then I tried him out and then I liked him. He is my secondary (2nd to Toon link ) in Smash 4 as he counters Toon Link's Weaknesses.

So carry on and I hope to battle you in Smash one day
