I'm almost 30% positive that things related to what I'm about to post have been posted about somewhere at sometime in the Pika section, but they haven't really come up in discussion much as of lately here. Just some extra Pika tricks that can help give you the edge if you manage to hit some of those priority whores. They give your opponent a bit more to think about while they're playing you plus they'll make you look innovative as hell XD.
The Thunder Chase~
Anyways, the first is a thunder edgeguard. Normally people expect to get thundered if they're high above the stage platform... not particularly after they've been f-smashed into the top right corner of FD. Basically, all you do is jump off the ledge, double jump (To stop your momentum) and then thunder. Against Characters like Peach/Jigglypuff, that tend to stick to the top of the screen before they get close to the stage again, it'll likely get you a low% (Or high% >.>) ko in a zone people don't tend to get KO'd at...
Pika's indeed Super Wavedash~
Here's another tricksie that no one's seems to have ever really brought up, except for the Link case, is pika's Super Wavedash. Technically you can do it against any character, but it only really gains a partial use against characters that have a projectile that Quick attack can clank with.
At first I thought it only worked against Link's boomerang... until the other day I missed a sweetspot and quickattacked through a Falco's jab and ended up on the other side of FD. But basically, if you quick attack into the stage, and quick attack towards something that quick attack'll clank with, Boom, Pika's zipping across the level in a standing animation at Quick attack speed XD. now... I've only really had it do something positive against a link player, where he was recovering, threw a boomerang at me, and I super wavedashed behind him and F-smashed. I literally had chicks throwing themselves at me afterwards >.>.
But it also works to my knowledge against Mario/Luigi's/Mewtwo's/Pika/Pichu... well lots of peoples projectiles, Peaches Turnips(cept for stitchface >_>), clanks with a lot of D-smashes, jabs, easily, and whatnot... course, it's easiest if you just predict that someone's going to use a projectile.
But yeah.. I'm going on like it's extremely practical to use XD.
Just wanted to see what yall think and perhaps give a new move to add to your arsenal x.X...
