Hey guys, so I have just started picking up Pikachu, because I find he is extremely unexplored at least I did 0 exploring with him in P.M.
Let me know what you think and if there is anything bread and butter that I should be using that I'm not.

Nair can replace Dair when you need the move to come out faster.

DD more with d-tilts to zone and then space your SHFFL aerials to try to aim behind the opponent.

You always jump as a QAC but you can also aerial, special, or direct waveland so it would be good to mix that up.

Try to sweetspot the ledge by default to leave yourself less vulnerable during recovery.

After that it's just a matter of improving your spacing and punish game, especially offstage. I recommend practicing your throw setups/followups and OoS options.

For specific questions the Pika mains have a chat on Anther's ladder you should check out: http://www.smashladder.com/netplay/HighVoltageClan2
