Only Luigi and Peach can beat him easily. Maybe MK and Yoshi.
MK would be hard, however, there are so many that we can fight them easy (Or should by now).
I'll go through my saved vids to see if I have any DSmash invincible frames. (No damage, no flinch, both pikmin die)

Olimar can win any matchup if they know how to play. Pretty much minus Peach, who I haven't played against a good peach yet. (Rohans, uh... some others.. they are not good.)
Luigi I'm starting to get a hang of, however no name people can give me a rough time which freaks me off.
Yoshi is easy when you know how to fight him.
Again, MK is 50-50 or so if you know what to do.

Most Olimar mains use him because they like the franchise.. or so I feel. This is the reason I use him. He's personally deep in my opinion with management of pikmin varieties. Hell, I have true combos, yes, true combos, based on the color of the pikmin I pluck. Not many, but I have them. Not likely, but they are there.


Olimar is a great character and does poorly in tourney ratings because most of the people who use him are bad. He is also not easy to learn to most people. (Hey, I know people who just know that blue throws hard and purple knocks you away when hit by tossing it).

Play an RPG or something, people.

@Excellence:
Simply telling me that I made grammatical mistakes won't do anything about it. I am trying to get the grammar done properly. *points at his location* What did I do wrong anyway? Wrong tenses, commas or missing ones?

Of what I've read in your post, I came to this conclusion: DACUS. Some pikmin run in front of you. So if the U-Smash fails, the next pikmin in the row which happens to be in front of you can then use a de-synced U-Smash. Am I getting something wrong again?

(To ensure you: I am going to experiment with pivot grabbing and dash dancing)
No I didn't scrutinize you for that because I was aware you are in Germany, I was talking about how you used the wrong words. That's why I said just reread or skim to make sure ya' didn't mistakingly put something down because you were thinking it.

I think you may have stumbled on what I was going, but I think it's possible to get both Pikmin to hit and do almost consecutive Up Smashes.

I apologize if this has been brought up. I just skimmed through about only 2 or 3 threads.

I was playing the other day and after i knocked someone out of the field and as they were going towards the ledge i was able to grab him perfectly. He was playing sonic. It looked incredibly weird aswell, the pikmin and sonic looked as if they were about to fall to their death but really quick sonic was brought right next to me. I have also grabbed sonic on various occasions as he was falling away from the ledge.

Anyone have any idea what happened here?
