I was never able to know everything I was supposed to learn as Falco. I got his WD, SHL, and other tech, but I want to know if there is anything else I should know. I don't care how detailed it is. I just want things I should learn how to do.

Shine Turn-around is a very important tech skill that isn't mentioned enough due to its ease of doing compared to other tech skills.
Shine Grab.
Ledge dash
Firebird Ledge Stalling
Full Hop Double Laser/Triple Laser
etc.

Shine out of shield is super important, and one of the best OOS options in the game. It can lead to pillaring at lower percents and instant back air kills at higher precents. I don't know if you want to count pillaring as tech, but make sure you can use a combination of dair, shine, and up tilt to combo every character in the game. Know when to up tilt vs when to shine (uptilt generally when you land way before your opponent after you dair and fast fall, and shine usually at lower percents/ against heavier characters, or when your dair lands them on a platform). Try to keep in mind its not all about tech skill, your neurtal game needs to be impeccable because falco is a glass cannon, and if your approach is sloppy you'll get bodied. I would also argue falcos nuetral is complicated because you need to know when to laser and when to dd, when to bait, and when to attack etc. Watch PPMD for the ideal falco nuetral game.
