strugling with main

[DrWubenstein]

i have been playing pikachu and having alot of fun but i find myself playing very defencively and wonder which characters you would recommend to main

Nothing wrong with playing Pikachu defensively!

If you want a character who better suits defensive play, Snake, Olimar, or Ivysaur would be strong picks.

If you want a character who forces you to be more aggressive, maybe pick someone without projectiles? I personally like Shulk, Lucina, and DK.

I also reccommend villager, rosalina and luma, megaman, pac man and basically any character that has projectiles, Inkling is awesome because they are good for being offensive and/or defensive

Pikachu can be played defensively, I actually do it a lot with Pika (trying to work on my play and learn mechanics) I typically make a sword user as they do great at range that Pika can struggle with provided you don't get a gimp. Zoners work too (Megaman, ROB etc)

I feel like Isabelle and to a lesser extent Incineroar work well when played defensively if you're looking to use the newcomers. On that thought, I'm sure Simon and Richter would work well too.

So this might be a little random but does anyone else have trouble with Pikachu's Skull Bash? Sometimes when I'm offstage I'll use it trying to go towards the stage and the game makes me go the complete opposite direction and into the blastzone. I know I'm putting my control stick in the correct direction each time. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Could be an online issue if you're playing online that is. If you're offline and absolutely positive that you're control stick is at the right direction then it could be the controller would be my guess.
