Hey, I have decided to make a Pikachu video, since I have Sony Vegas, and a capture card.
What I need you to list Techniques you want to appear in the vid. Also, songs suggestions would help. Thanks.

Also, tell me if you want to appear or help with the video.

include tactics shown here:
http://www.smashboards.com/showthread.php?t=168404&page=1

Shield to dash grab definitely should be used more by all characters, and circle dashing should be used some more as well.

*end bias*

Definitely cover QAL (uptilt footstool QAL ftw), and cover down tilt -> fsmash.

I think the intro should be a lot of people DI'ing their way out of dsmash, since that seems to be what's happening, followed by a long QAL.

The ending should be a QAL fade out...

lol I feel like making a tutorial now.

Include stuff on Quick Attack Cancel, why full-hopped jolts are better than regular ones, a few edgegaurding tactics, and stuff on why Crawlings awesome (For example, Ganon can't kick, Jab, or F-Tilt a crawling 'chu. Pikachu also can duck under Falco's Reflector and counter with D-Tilt.)

Song suggestions:
"Holy Thunderforce" by Rhapsody
"Fury of the Storm" by Dragonforce
Something power metal with noticable mention of lightning somewhere in it.

So, how exactly is this gonna work? I would like to help, but it would be easier for me to do so if I understood the parameters of this project.

Well, I will be showing how to do each technique, then I will be showing the application of it in real games.

So if you guys want, you can help me do some set ups to show how the technique is used.

Alright, I'm awake.
I have decided Part of the video is going to be Basic techniques, such as hugging, and pivot grabbing, and Part 2 will be Pikachu specific.

What do you think?

Also, I don't think rock will do. Anyone know of nice instrumentals?
Maybe some classic Pokemon?

you should add the QAL if you can do it(or have someone do it and send to u, just use the same color pika ^_^) and you should also add going under the stage with pika, its a pretty nice mindgame/alternate recovery...just my 2 cents from a brief glance

combo: uair -> ff fair - > uair -> ff fair -> nair
grab -> uthrow -> full jump uair -> (depending on which side they fall to) skullbash [low percent combo]

u can do it on anyone ( i assume you're talking about the 2nd one) but realize the skullbash isn't charged, and they can jump out of the uthrow if expecting it

Here's a tip:

Watch Anther play Pikachu, because every pika I've ever played is **** compared to him.

I have NEVER... EVER... lost to another pika player.

Except the ONE time I decided to play a random character against Kyari's pika in pools (snake) on his cp of Rainbow Cruise. lol.

I beat him in 3 mm's later though sooo *shrugs*

Lol ESAM. I've heard of you from somewhere...

But really, not all pikachu's are garbage. But the point I'm trying to get across is that... Anther is just so much better (or different?) then everyone else with pikachu that no one even compares...
