The truth is probably somewhere in between.I believe people often underrate Pichu. I don't think that he's a very good character, but he isn't as bad as everybody thinks.
I'm a Pika main, but I play Pichu sometimes because his Nair and shield make me jealous.
Then I get bored and go back to winning
The 8 top tiers - everyone ICs and up
The 6 super viables (characters you can make your main without any real need of a secondary) - everyone Luigi and up
The 7 "specialists" (characters who have major flaws overall but are still great at certain matchups; ex: Y.L v. Puff, Link v. Marth/Samus, Zelda v. ICs, Roy v. Falcon, etc) - Yoshi and up
The 5 at the bottom (characters that struggle, and struggle hard, at just about every matchup) - Kirby, Pichu, Bowser, Ness, and G&W
no... If you understand the character and your opponents character and you are the better player, you can win. Its more about being comfortable with the character.Pichu caaaaaan win, but you have to be immensely better than your opponent, especially if your playing a match up that is considered "unwinable".
Proable from ICG's old posts.i dont get where aesir god gets his information about pichu
I'd rather be comboed than be killedand he gets combo'd, which is no fun
I'm pretty sure that Pikachu and Pichu's jumps are almost identical, only difference being fastfall, and Pikachu actually dashes faster than Pichu.His jumps feel stupid.
he runs slow
And I just can't imagine why you'd think that. They pretty much have the same options; Pika just has less-terrible range with them, so they're more viableish.less off the ledge options.
