Subfloating out of dash should be nearly identical to subfloating normally, assuming you don't use tap jump.

Lol! Great find. Long story short, literally don't trust those matchup charts at all. But also, I don't think anyone could say conclusively how ness pichu goes (though intuitively I would definitely expect pichu to have the advantage).

Easier Parasol Dash Intro https://twitter.com/ShyPF/status/1250522626331680768 Parasol dash is a ledge option which allows Peach to have 8-9 GALINT from ledge. It was originally found by @Rococo , and was popularized and researched by Shy. The problem with Parasol Dash is that 2 things hold...

I hope the 14 years since the original post have given OP a better grasp of the language.

Are you asking why aren't the most popular characters outside of smash top tier? Besides 64, no smash game has had mainline Nintendo characters as top tier. Make of that as you will. If you're commenting on the more limited number of viable characters in melee, this is often perceived as a...

You need to mash faster. Gaining height with luigi down b is hard.

How can you SD cancel against a zero framer?

I think of is as more that the pantheon has gained players- Leffen, Plup, and now Zain.

If you can wave dash, wave shining isn't much harder. Practice it as two separate acrions- shine and then shortly later, wave dash. I think one of the best motivators for improvement is playing people slightly above your skill level and trying to beat them. I'd join the beginner melee discord...

Move around them, bair, dash attack, f tilt, turnips, nair. You can also get under him when he shoots them if he full hops.

Bair is really good for shutting out or trading with most of doc's kit. Don't challenge jab down smash. Doc generally wants to try to force you off the ground by using pills. Then his approach becomes a lot easier because he can use up air and just generally has a lot more control approaching...

Good luck on becoming the best pichu. Dublat and Codeman are really good at the character. Low tiers in melee are fundamentally handicapped and limited. Pichu has too many weaknesses which can't be compensated for. You'll always be held back if you solo main Pichu, so I recommend at least dual...

You should be able to find it on Smashcords. Pichu does have a lot of crazy stuff, the problem is that so many of her matchups are just awful.

Read lloD's guide to improvement, called the Golden Path. You can find it on the Melee library. It will hopefully somewhat address this question.

If your dad hacked your wii, get an ISO of melee and play it through homebrew. That's what most people do. Probably get 20XX.
