I cp sheiks to corneria (if it's not banned) or FoD. Some people hate FoD though, so I could see stadium being alright. Stadium is a good pika stage in general.

Marths I just lose against regardless of CP. I usually take them to dreamland though, platform heights are less scary and you don't die to tipper fsmash every time you mess up your throw DI. Japes is also a legitimate option, marth doesn't like the river much and pika can quickattack everywheres!

I doubt i'm going to Pound4, and I definately can't make it to pat's house, sorry guys : /

Also I still think Marth is pika's worst matchup, personally. Get at me.

I think sheik still. marth needs edge gaurd gimps more(pika isn't easy to edge gaurd) than sheik and sheik and d-throw chain throw and another way other than just edge gaurd. But at least sheik is easier to hit and combo and edge gaurd.

I think we should all report into this thread when we enter a tourny, guys.

Marth sucks, but boy are there a lot of ways to kill him if you are smart. Shiek I feel is more of a crapshoot. I think you guys are a lot better at the matchup than I am. I would rather play 10 IC's before even 1 shiek, even if it isnt a great shiek. But we all know that by now.

Anyone else have trouble with docs? I don't think Ive ever lost to one in tourny, but for some reason they are extremely aggravating to play for me.

dogysamich's doc owned my pika. I was at like a 1/4 win ratio against him in friendlies this summer. Doc is tough : /

Dogy was giving me a really hard time when I played him at TO5 in friendlies. I think I lost more than I won against him.
*gasp* *refuses to believe that chad could ever lose*

dude, when i was at genesis, Bob$ and i had some epic Pika-Doc matches. his doc is so good omg!!! but i was somehow able to keep up... i think it was about a 50/50 for us lol

i'll admit though, both mario and doc are pretty annoying, but... somehow i don't mind it as much as i used to.

i'll admit, marth is a very hard matchup to me. it's hard to approach. sheik is very hard too

but for some reason... i still feel like jiggs is my worst matchup everrrrr

Don't you have Fox for every matchup then?

On a side note, I heard some rustling outside my window. Is that you N64?

LMAO that MUST be N64 XD

haha and yes, i do use fox for puff, but my fox isn't that great. he's more specifically for puff and sometimes sheik if falco doesn't work

i use pika and falco mainly... rarely fox haha. falco's so fun! but pikachu's wayyyyy more epic :)

Could Kongo 64 be a good stage against marth/shiek? Maybe not for vert kills but would the pass-through ledges help with horizontal and edgeguarding KO's against the two?
Can sheik still chaingrab well there?

Sorry for the questions lol.

Pink reaper and i are soooooooooooo cooooooooool. You guys wish you were this cool.

I have surprising trouble against kirbys. Bair is annoying. Utilt is annoying. At least he's like 90% sure of being dead once he's off the edge though.

And sorry AXE. My heart belongs to one low tier main at the moment. He is dreamy.

KJ64 can be ok against sheik, but probably not so much marth. Sheik loses some recovery options with the pass-through edges, but marth does not. Sheik can't cg you well there either. The main issue though is, the ceiling is way too high, so one of your primary kill methods is out.

In the Air, Using Up b as an offensive move
We're sooooooooooo much more awesome than everyone else aren't we N64. Even Ihavespaceballs, cus he has to resort to using a mid tier character to make it into the MBR


Kirby isn't that hard for Pikachu actually(well, mine is, but that's just cus I camp like a *****) and it's very easy to do things like Nair->Usmash on Kirby if you hit him with the weak hitbox.

i'm gonna have to agree with IHSB and say that chad's pika is freakin ****-nasty!

you know what? i have trouble with kirby too. i think that i pretty much have trouble with all the small characters, like pichu, kirby, jiggs, even a pika ditto's hard

as far as the down throw tech thing.... i almost never down throw lol. but when i do sometimes on accident and stuff, they actually tech it pretty frequently. i guess people have fast reflexes?
