Alright, here is a combo I have discovered, I am going to nickname it the Dair Quick-Attack Thunder (DQT) Combo. Here's how it is pulled off. When in the air you do Pikachu's Dair sending your opponent downwards before quick attacking to their location, hitting them in their fall and then if your above the ground and still falling then you can get rid of the lag and then thunder or you can quick attack cancel into a thunder.

So here's the technique formula:
Jump > Dair > Quick Attack > Thunder

Quite simple on paper, difficult in game, pwnage in retrospect. Master it...it's very hard to fully take advantage of simply because you need to be able to read the results of your Dair and then judge your Quick Attack distance and have proper aim. So yeah...happy DQT'ing!

I commend you for sharing something with others

I don't like the fact that you named it for two reasons

1. It's not an auto combo, it's just a setup

2. It's self explanatory w/o the shorthand

Once again thanks for sharing but uhh naming this just uhh...

Someone else wanna jump in?

Oh, yeah, sure. Soon enough, with the influx of so many trying to jump in on a name for every new "technique" they can think of, people will naturally rebel against this trend and start shouting down any attempt at naming and tell people to let names arise naturally.

Or something like that. I won't mind when it happens!

He didn't really name it. The name is just the moves you use to do it and at least he didn't try to put his name on it.

Meh, this is pretty much self-explanatory. We don't need name for every combo we discover. Besides that, I like it as a mindgame, although if they see it coming it's pretty easy to just roll away or shield.
