Awesome! Post some of this in the compilation thread, and I'll add it to the list. I'm really glad Boosted Pivot Grabbing has caught the attention of the Diddy metagame! :D

Looks sick in theory, and in the vid. Good luck against a human though.
It is harder to do this against a human for the fact it's more difficult to predict what direction the Dash Attack will launch them. Typically, I use this combo if they shield the Dash Attack and I end up on their other side, or if they Spot-Dodge it. Both of these cases ensure your opponent will stay grounding after the Dash Attack, leaving them open for the Reverse Boosted Pivot Grab.

But again, yes, it is harder to do against a human :p

Awesome, thank you for this! I didn't have anyone to practice the DI with :D

but quote that is only when the dash attack performs the attack in which your opponent is sent flying behind you and slightly above the ground. otherwise the best method of attack would be bair :\. this is good if u mess up that setup or land ur dash attack a bit late.

what i also figured out is. what happens if u get ur banana in this scenario?

dash attack *picks up banana*> dribble backwards > rbpg.

though the rbpg isnt needed since the banana auto trips them its still nifty to do :3 it looks mad fancy. but in reality i would not pivot grab them if an opponent trips i would perform another dash attack into an arial or uptilt/upsmash/dsmash/fsmash combo :3 more % that way.
