Quick Attack Edge Hog?

I've been watching N64's video's alot and mostly his Electric Shuffle one and I've learned alot of experience from watching them over and over and implementing them into my gameplay.

However, I've noticed him doing quick attack edge hogs.

What i mean is pikachu is in the middle of the stage does quick attack across the stage and quickly grabs the edge to stop the opponent from grabbing on the ledge.

Its everywhere in this video. Look at 0:29 - 0:32 & 4:29 - 4:31

Has anyone else noticed this or know how to do it?

I think this could be useful in making pikachu more fearful to many high tiers and more easier for us pika players to get a better advantage in tournaments.

~ Thanks

You angle the second part down and towards the stage so you face the edge and grab it, you just have to let go of down quick or else you just go right by it and die.

I can do it pretty much on comand, and have in tourny many, many times. Just practice so that you have the confidence to attempt it in matches that matter.

i just started toying around with it lately. and it does look very flashy and impressive, yet still gets the job done. I love the reactions that it gets from a big crowd in an important match
