Walls are Pikachu's best friend

This shows an amazing variation of it that can be used for death, but it can be used in general to get the QAL from a wall. It should work on every character on Delfino (parts that have walls) Pokestadium (Rock formations of 1 and 2, fire of PS1), and Frigate (First part when the platform is down)

If you can't tell, the good part is the guaranteee Footstool to QAL, not the CG against the wall (to avoid confusion)

It's cool lol. MLG HERE WE COME!

so your saying it acts like Ikes fthrow and it cant be teched?

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

AT low %s yes. At around 60% or so they will have knockback instead of the set knockback.

 

[Dark 3nergy]

so um more questions; you said delfino right? welp in the vid it shows you put that zss in a really bad spot and due to the nature of where that wall was you were able to capitalize on getting that stock because the delfino dolphin platform does not spawn in that sector of the map

so..if you did this; say at another wall where the delfino dolphin platform did spawn under you both; what would you do to keep them in a bad situation as you lose the wall? QA lock?

the second would be what input did you do when the camera cut you both off screen from 0:15-0:18 in the vid? just QAC?

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

Yeah just QA. Also, i would just continue the QA if the platform spawned under both of us instead of barely missing us.

ESAM's awesomeness broke youtube

That's too good. And even though it's more situational, it should be easier to do than the upair>footstool shinanigans.

 

[[FBC] ESAM]

uair footstool is really easy...

 

[Dark 3nergy]

well..maybe for you but i find pikachu one of the more difficult characters to literally control in the game up there with Sonic, and MK

this is why i have trouble using him even when iron manning..

Uair<footstool is annoying to me i rarely do it on purpose i be trying to uair<nair and jump with nair to get away but instead i do a footstool....

MK hard to control? Wut?

Anyways, nice vid. Situational, but on some stages (Delfino, Frigate, PS1), I can see it being very possible.

I meant repeating the upair> footstool.

Just doing it once easy, but people can DI the footstool part, so it gets trickier the higher the percent, cause they get knocked higher, and have more control over where they go.

what?

tap jump on and his ground speed/spacing is pretty weird compared to the characters i get on. Pikachu feels very similar in this regard...what makes playing him more weird is..well approaching with upb O_o i mean how many characters can safely approach with an up b? his bair is a strange multi hit move...so are all his aerials for me.

I can see this being awesome, good stuff esam.
