Falcoidae, I apreciate all the amazing work you and the other guide makers do. I don't have that much to contribute in the first place and things I would contribute were already suggested most of the time. All of the guides may not have recieved as much praise as you would've wanted, but believe me they are being helpful and appreciated. I personally can only check here every so often(busy busy).

By the way ,it's hard to constantly go back to the guide to see what's new, I've already read it all so that may be one reason it seems to be "rejected."

 

[1nconspikuous]

not sure if this is the right place to ask, but i've been picking pika up as a secondary and he's friggin awesome. i couldn't find a 'pika q&a' guide so i thought this would be a good place to ask.

i just wanted 2 know if pika's 'neutral a combo' counts as 'one hit' to refresh knockback or 'multiple hits'.

 

[1nconspikuous]

hey i've got another question (if anyone can answer it).

what is pikachu's quickest aerial? i mean, in terms of the least number of frames before the hitbox comes out?

 

[Stealth Raptor]

nair and uair are tied at 3 and bair is 4.

 

[1nconspikuous]

thx! =)

When using Quick attack to recover, does going strait up and then to the side go farther than going diagnally up and sideways?

Good guide. I'm trying to pick up pikachu.

 

[K 2]

Use QA diagonally up (up-right, up-left), and then right or left to get the maximum distance. It really depends on the angle you are from the stage. Pikachu will almost always make it back to the ledge with room to spare.

Hmmm... this thread creator is never coming back, is he?
Perhaps we oughta make a new thread and copy n' paste his info into it, possibly add more, and then merge it with Spark's Pikachu tricks thread. Just putting that suggestion out there.

 

[rinoH]

that'd be nice

 

[o0gosu0o]

great guide, i didnt know that you could do a move after the upb into the ground, even though i noticed he kinda floats in the air afterwards,

 

[SirroMinus1]

Grab > D-throw > U-tilt > N-air
is that not a combo?

 

[K 2]

It is. The guide doesn't list every single possible combo, but it gives new players a few simple combos to start off with. As you get more pika experience, you develop a feel for the character. You can use that knowledge to create new combos.

 

[SirroMinus1]

i see. thanks.!

 

[5ive]

This should really either be updated, or unstickied in exchange for the video guide.

Seriously, if this doesn't get updated soon, I'll edit this to make it recent.

There's a video guide for pikachu?

 

[5ive]

old post hai K2

 

[K 2]

I'm not complaining, read my reply in the other thread.

 

[Zylar]

Every possible combo would be near impossible 'cuz of QAC. Goodness...

 

[!Boom!]

Stop complaining when all I'm doing is helping out the Pikachu Community.
If you don't want me advertising I'll just take it off youtube

Do it for the lulz.

 

[1 800 brawlr]

very nice guide, extremely useful!

 

[cali'c]

In the description for pika roll, in the section pertaining to pika throws, the word you is used in place of the word use .

 

[cali'c]

also in the specific character match ups, it is mentioned that pikachu may be able to chain throw lucario; we tested this many times, and not only does this not seem posible, but we think lucario is to floaty to be chain grabbed by any character, but still infinately grabbed.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

no lucario cannot be cg'd unless he lets himself be. he can jump dair and hit us. thisisactually very outdated. it needs a new one.

 

[K 2]

This is seriously outdated people. We need to get a revamped guide.

 

[Zylar]

This means a new thread, since the thread creator hasn't been on SWF since like 4 months.

 

[K 2]

Is 5ive going to create one, or is someone else going to do it?

 

[cali'c]

Is it not possible for one of us to create a new thread.

 

[flyingpork002]

that's impossible!

 

[Metroh]

Great. This helped.

[Dream Land Works]

I am surprised no one has decided to start another Pikachu Guide, especially with me not playing Brawl for like 7+ months. Well, it may take a little why to update again because I am probably very rusty with Pikachu by now, but once I get use to him again (probably a week or two) and once I look through the Pika section to see if there are any major new techniques, I will update the thread.

If anyone has anything major about Pikachu to post that was discovered since Summer 08, please do so.

 

[KayLo!]

Uhh, K 2 and I were gonna work on a new one, but if you wanna update yours, I guess that's fine?

What timing, lol.

 

[Dream Land Works]

LOL. Nah, you can go ahead and make yours. Mine is very old and my mind is still in Summer 08 Brawl. It would be better for someone who is more up to date with the game to make a Pikachu Guide.

 

[KayLo!]

Kk. If you want to help out, you're more than welcome. I'll send you a PM tomorrow when I start working on it.

 

[Stealth Raptor]

welcome back dreamland! you should stop by our chat sometime and play us. we can get that rust removed real quick

 

[gallax]

its been a long time dreamland. whatsup? how was your break?
