Hey! Welcome to the pika boards! Unfortuantly, I cannot type out all the tips, since that would obviously take way to long, but...

Have you read the stickies?

Have you read the list of 70+ tricks for pika?

The tricks thread has some useful ones (mainly the ones involving QAC and Thunders). Learn the important ones first before you go onto Pika scarring or quadruple thunder.

Thunder can be useful if opponent is high above you, it will give an easy kill if they don't airdodge. :chuckle:

Spam your B move if they're at a distance. Then, if they try to jump over you to land an attack, start spamming Thunder. Then, if they get close to you anyway, spam Down-smash.

Alternatively, you could just run over to them and start spamming Thunder.

Alternatively, you could just run over to them and start spamming Down-smash. Either way, it's annoying as hell to the opponent, and they'll probably just leave, thus making you win the match.

Man. We have so many of these "New to pikachu" threads in the past 3 days. Should I start a pika Q&A thread or something? It might stop new users from making these flood of posts.

Just an idea. I'll be glad to create one if you guys want me to.

I think we should, it would stop all the new pika threads, and alot of other boards such as the marth boards have them, and they seem to be going pretty well.

I dont like new pikas getting the idea that they should spam to win. Just gives us pikas a bad name.
