This is a chaingrab most effective against spacies if they do not know how to escape it. It still works on some of the other characters too

1. Grab your opponent
2. Dthrow with Popo
3. Immediately short hop dair with Nana
4. The opponent will and right in front of you for another grab!...unless if they know how to escape it -_-

anyways, no need to DI nana anywhere, in place works

The timing is different on every character because of their weight (which affects how long the dthrow animation lasts). When chaingrabbing heavier characters, you have to wait a bit more. Characters like Fox are light enough that you can basically do the dair instantly. On the other hand, Falcon is heavy, so you have to chill for a bit before making Nana dair. Additionally, you sometimes have to full jump dair when chaingrabbing larger characters (like Falcon, DK, and Ganon), because they're so bulky that the SH dair hits them at a weird angle. I've seen the SH work, but it's harder to do I believe.

the best way i found to time these for heavier characters, is wait till Popo finishes saying OHH or HAHH when he throws and then short hop dair with nana
just a little trick i picked up when i was learning ICs but it comes to me naturally now haha
