-Chad- and I are on the brink of developing the next level of pikachu combos. Behold!

LazyAlwaysWins (8:24:10 PM): i don't think pika has a move i don't like
Chaddical (8:20:44 PM): My least favorite would have to be skullbash
LazyAlwaysWins (8:24:27 PM): actually, i'm sure i don't
LazyAlwaysWins (8:24:43 PM): skullbash is the lowest yes, but finishing someone with skullbash is probably the coolest thing ever
Chaddical (8:21:12 PM): Techchasing to a skull bash
LazyAlwaysWins (8:25:01 PM): uair spike -> skullbash kill = instant win
Chaddical (8:21:36 PM): F-smash to skull bash techchase = better
Chaddical (8:21:49 PM): at lower %'s it works =x
Chaddical (8:22:21 PM): If your opponent techs toward you while you charge it (I dunno what it is, but if you're chargin something, they feel compelled to go toward it)
LazyAlwaysWins (8:26:04 PM): you have not seen the awesomeness of uair spike -> immediate skullbash
Chaddical (8:22:37 PM): I guess not
LazyAlwaysWins (8:26:21 PM): IT IS AMAZING
LazyAlwaysWins (8:26:25 PM): i shall show you some time
Chaddical (8:23:41 PM): So..don't charge it?
LazyAlwaysWins (8:27:27 PM): nope
LazyAlwaysWins (8:27:36 PM): works on fastfallers if i remember right
LazyAlwaysWins (8:27:49 PM): depends on DI though
LazyAlwaysWins (8:27:52 PM): and percentage
LazyAlwaysWins (8:28:04 PM): also i think it kills you too
Chaddical (8:24:32 PM): Awesome
Chaddical (8:24:42 PM): I'll pretend I'm doing one of my trademarked Falcon suicide combos
LazyAlwaysWins (8:28:30 PM): the only time i've actually pulled it off it killed me too, but that was on yoshi's
LazyAlwaysWins (8:28:41 PM): super low floor and all
LazyAlwaysWins (8:28:51 PM): er, high floor
LazyAlwaysWins (8:28:54 PM): whatever floor
LazyAlwaysWins (8:28:57 PM): die-fast-floor
Chaddical (8:25:22 PM): The one that kills faster
Chaddical (8:26:37 PM): !
LazyAlwaysWins (8:30:45 PM): !
LazyAlwaysWins (8:31:04 PM): i wonder if usmash->skullbash works on fastfallers
LazyAlwaysWins (8:31:09 PM): at low percents
Chaddical (8:27:31 PM): Omg..
Chaddical (8:27:34 PM): Upthrow skull bash
LazyAlwaysWins (8:31:29 PM): ftilt->skullbash!
Chaddical (8:27:55 PM): Upair skullbash
Chaddical (8:28:05 PM): Omg a whole new technique we've never though of
LazyAlwaysWins (8:31:50 PM): skullbash -> skullbash!
Chaddical (8:28:11 PM): thought*
Chaddical (8:28:13 PM): !
Chaddical (8:28:16 PM): BRILLIANT!

That's right. The skullbash combo returns.

THIS is what kept Pika from top tier! People can't just use the double skullbash! Wait, you didn't trademark it! I call dibs on intellectual property!
skullbash->skullbashTM


EDIT: Everytime you use it, you will be breaking the law and I can sue the ***** of your Pika-butts!

haha even if this is a joke, still actually found use for it...
gotten good Foxes with this plenty of times, bthrow -> skullbash =D
hah, sad that something other than skullbash will be considered "off topic" but a sweet way to **** a recovering CF...jump out at him as he's upBing, techwalljump, upB right to the ledge, he's FACKED! just jump out there with a nair, if you hit him, you win, if he catches you first, you win.

also, another thing I've done to Foxes but I'm not 100% positive on the technicalities of it but I'm pretty sure you space it so that you hit them with almost the very end of the upB. as they charge firefox...just upB right at them, you'll trade hits and they'll fall to their death while you still have another upB

Ya know instead of using your first quick attack (^B) to meet Firefox, use both quick attacks (quick attack off the stage, quick attack on the stage). This creates (if performed correctly) a vertical barrier that cancels Firefox. I'm relatively new with Pikachu. I call myself "researching" Pikachu before I decide to main him. I've been heavily researching Pika's ^B, trying to reduce lag time when used as a basic attack. Not going so well. I've found a few ways but they're level specific so. . .yeah. Any Pika rocks. Too bad I've found this out way too late.

ah, I suppose I should've elaborated to include that...yeah, when you do whatever it was that I mentioned, always intend to aim the second part of the ^B back onto the stage
Pika is amazing though, keep at it =D

Skler you noob clearly he borrowed from the advice in the Matchup Chart Thread. Apparently the advice to Nair through Sheik moves with Pikachu is 100% legit. He also made use of ICG's retreat thunder technique and traded it with a needle to combo into Nair Nair Nair Nair because Nair combos are completely inescapable.

DOESN'T HE USE SHEIK??? *runs some more* YEAH AND I HEARD HE LOST TO A PIKACHU HAHA....N64'S TOO GOOD...WAY BETTER THAN RENO"
