I'm sure most of you know that compared to Olimar's other Pikmin (which do 2%), the White Pikmin do 4% pummel damage.
Depending on the Pikmin I have at hand, I will usually go for a grab with White, pummel them and do a dtilt when they break free of the grab. I can usually take them by surprise and they won't have time to retaliate.
Is there any safer options to do? It seems ftilt's start up is too slow for this and jab is just slightly lacking on range compared to dtilt.
Would it be more efficient to just use a throw? Judging by the plucking order, a Purple will be right behind the White and when I do a throw with white there is weaker knock-back allowing me to chain a Purple fair off dthrow easier, so it is probably a better choice, damage wise.
Share strategies and opinions I guess.

I was trying to do some tests before answering this but definitely I need to test against human player.
As soon as possible I will be posting the info but I needed to let you know that I am working on this :).
