kk im new to smashboards so im not quite sure if this was presented...
okk so here we go: You smash your opponent off the stage, and then IMMEDIATLEY ->
1. Dash to teh edge and then roll towards it so that you re desynching, and while you re desynching hold down the jump button
-both nana and popo are facin AWAY from teh edge at this point,
2. walk slightly inwards (towards teh middle of teh stage)
-i dunt get this but this edgeguardin method needs this
3. While popo is walkin inward, nana jumps - when nana jumps, IMMEDIATELY roll TOWARDS the edge again, so that popo ROLLS towards the edge, while nana air dodges towards the edge
-Since both of them are looking away from teh edge, and that nana has air dodged towards teh edge, she will grab teh edge while popo is free on the top of the stage
4. press R so that nana rolls in to the stage while during that time, popo is free to smash teh enemy ANYTIME he wants compared to the other methods that have popo on the edge...
TO simplify it, think
Dash towards teh edge
Roll towards it holding jump button
walk inwards a bit
when you c nana jumpin, roll towards teh edge again
then she ll b on teh edge while popo is on top abel to do w.e he wants
So what does everyone think? it takes a while to setup so i would think it d b done IMMEDIATELY and it DID help me out so far...comments? or criticism? or anything that anyone thinks about this...

umm, an easier way to get Nana on the edge is to roll towards the edge hold up, while still holding the shield button move the control stick towards the edge and nana grabs it w/o having to make her air dodge.

Another way is to up b out of shield while facing away from the edge, but this one seems pointless to me since the first method I mentioned is much faster.

It should be fine in friendlies, but it is not as reliable as you think cuz you can't control how long nana stays on the ledge. and it takes too long to set up so if the person has the luxury of not having to sweet spot to make it back, odds are that they can also hit nana while you are setting this up and they are approaching the ledge.

The roll up-b ledgehog has been around for quite some time, its kind of fun but really not effective unless they have no chance of making the stage or edge before Nana and you are just doing it to show off.
