Must be a glitch.
So, if Meta Knight uses his Up B on the same frame as he gets hit by Pikachu's dair, he goes flying far away?
Very cool, needs more testing.

It has something to do with either the Reflector or the fact that the Thunder was interrupted by the moving platform...or perhaps both. A glitch, if anything.

THe thunder was stopped by the platform, and then reversed by the reflector, and for some reason the hitbox stayed there.
Pika's Dair hit Meta right before he snapped to the ledge, maybe he got the momentum from the ledge snap as well as the knockback from the Dair? And then he ran into the thunder hitbox, and it turned him around. :|
And for some reason he was still in Fallspecial on the way down, even after those 2(maybe 3) hitboxes.

no ill explain the process. first he daired mk. as soon as he was hit he could somehow use up-b. the mechanics of the game are that if you dont momentum cancel, most momentum changing moves used in hitstun have a penalty "push". it looks like his momentum caused by the dair plus the penalty from his up b which btw was used aimed outside the stage, pushed him way out there. the shuttle loop explains the free fall afterwards.
