Hey everyone =)
If this technique has already been discovered, then I'm really sorry for wasting everyone's time here lol. I made sure to look at the Q&A for this, but I didn't find it. I'm not exactly sure how useful this technique will be (I find it to be very useful. Probably more useful for Sheik than Pikachu) but... here goes =)
Basically, we (everyone in the Pikachu discussion) have discovered that... During the first zip of his up-b, he can turn around. So... let's say Pikachu is facing left. You can up-b strait up, and end up facing right. You can do this from the ground or while airborne. So what does this mean for Sheik?
I have seen many times when Sheik is in the position where she is without a jump and somewhat under the stage (imagine FD). You probably feel like it's pointless to try to recover, because your only option is to teleport strait up, and there's no way to grab the edge because you're facing the wrong way. Well, now you can change that! When you up-b strait up, there is a way to turn around so you can now grab the edge and be a happy Sheik player
To do this technique... at the START of your up-b (during the frames before you actually take off, which is when Sheik's doing that weird twisty-body thing BEFORE she vanishes), you must lightly (and I mean VERY lightly) tilt the control stick in the opposite direction that you are facing. You must tilt it lightly enough so that you do not actually vanish in that direction. The result will be Sheik vanishing strait up and facing the opposite direction of which she started. So... You could up-b (while in the air), and during the time before she vanishes, you can move slightly left or right. Then when you vanish strait up, you can end up facing the opposite direction and happily grab the edge =D
Characters with similar up-b mechanics can do this (Pikachu, Pichu, Zelda, Mewtwo). Sheik is luckily one of the easier ones to do this with due to how long her startup frames are before she vanishes. The hardest one to do this with is Mewtwo because he has very little startup time, but it's still possible.
Anyways, I hope that this can help some of you guys out and sorry if this is already known lol
