Best way to avoid be juggled by pikachu's down B when playing snake?

[drab]

Hey,

Whats the best way to avoid being juggled by pikachu's down B when you're playing as snake and you're in the air. My brother plays as pikachu and it's really annoying.

Is it possible to side step it in the air?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

this move can be annoying but all I do to avoid it is airdodge

air dodge just before it hits you.

The problem with air dodging is that the dsmash has multiple hits, so you'll be caught anyway. Best to just DI far from him, never put yourself directly above pika or anywhere in that vicinity. Also, a good tip for dodging a ground dsmash is to first shield it, and right before it ends, spot dodge in place. The spot dodge avoids the last part of the dsmash, which would have otherwise poked through your shield.

Down B is when Pikachu makes this huge thunderbolt come down on him from the sky while going "Piiika"
the juggle thing is because if your above Pikachu when he does it you'll be sent upwards, and the pikachu can carry on (juggling you in the air)

I've had this problem many times, and I think the best thing to is just fight fire with fire and down B that mutha f*cka with kirby while in the air XD

Just try air dodge, and like previously mentioned, dont get anywhere near it.

DI left or right and that shouldn't be a problem.
