I know it was already found long ago.
I made this video for those who dont understand the possible uses of it^^

Please do enjoy, and no harsh or rude comments =]
Thank you

Awe, you called Ivysaur Bulbasaur.

I feel really stupid for not realizing the defensive usage of the grab for slower running characters. Well, for non-tether characters.

I always thought of using it for running behind the guy and then grabbing them @.@

It's a good video for those unaware of this tech. You might want to change "Bulbasaur" to "Ivysaur" at the end though

thats nice, i never knew the revers grab could go thorough attacks, like that Fox's. and it seems to have longer range as well. I never use this, but may start to.

Pivot Grab:

While dashing, press the direction opposite your current heading while performing a grab. You’ll get more range out of this kind of grab, so try pulling a 180 and scooping up your unsuspecting opponent with it.

So yeah, you do get more range

I try to use it a lot with Olimar's lagless and somewhat "cheap" grabs. ^__^

 

[oliwonder]

olimar pwns with this. u can't tell he's even grabbing because of all the other pikmin. it just looks like one pikmin is goin to the back of the line

Great! I already knew about this, but I usually only used it when the opponent sidesteped as I approached...so you taught me a new way of using it! thanks!

I believe the smash bros dojo even mentioned this at some point..

Not a bad guide. However, you made it sound like the primary use of pivot/reverse grabs is to supplement a strategy of constantly running away; I think it would be better to say that it is a tool that makes running away (or even running past your opponent) more dangerous than it otherwise would be.

Also, the bit about sliding or not sliding was news to me. Thanks for the effort.

I had no idea what the purpose of the grab was until I saw this. Thanks!

Sethlon's reverse pivot boost grabs with Falco are too sexy.
