What do Cpus do that are unusual?

Lvl 9 Pikachus QAC a lot. Usually they just do it back and forth, but I've heard tales of QAC > thunder and QAC > edgehog (which is too good.... but suicidal for a human Pika to attempt).

CPU G&Ws tend to get a lot of 9s with the Judgement hammer. Cheaters.

Also, sometimes if I die and the CPU dies before they finish taunting (I kill them, the stage kills them, etc), they'll taunt when they respawn. They're just... so... mean!
I've never seen a CPU Pikachu purposely QAC before... I don't think the developers knew about QAC (sorta like with wavedashing in melee).

And to the people saying that CPUs learn from you: I don't think they can do that either. They just have great reaction time and they're very well programmed (for the most part... :p).

When you play cpu's in a free for all, if you get launched into the air, all 3 wait for you at the bottom and the totally forget that there is someone other than me to attack, as if they are all on a team. Freakin annoying =P.
That's usual, though. CPUs always team up against the player(s), even on lower difficulty levels.

It's quite difficult to predict what the Brawl CPU will do. Heck, the level 1s are just as smart as the level 9s in terms of perfect shielding and shield grabs, though they attack less frequently.

captain falcon always seems to kill himself near the beginning of the match on the highest difficulty for classic mode. it's happened twice out of the few times i've played that difficulty

Once when I was making a replay of Lucas vs. dark Lucas, I knocked the Dark Lucas a tad far away, then I crouched just for the sake of random fun. Then, when the Dark Lucas got up, he crouch taunted me! Probably more proof that CPU's act off of Button presses and stuff.

Also, in a retake of that scenario (Lucas vs. Dark Lucas), when the match started, the Dark Lucas jumped to the left, and kept grabbing the edge, jumping up, grabbing the edge, then repeating. I decided to do that on the right side of the stage. We had to have been doing that for a whole minute, until a Chimera popped up and got the CPU to jump away from it.

not exactly, they are attracted to P1. I was P2 at my friend's house and one of the cpus ran through me to get P1. we were playing team battles

Captain Falcon always Falcon Punches at the worst times, especially when trying to edgeguard. Not effective at all.

Whenever the CPU is above, they can never resist the temptation to footstool.

Even when it's moar practical to do something else.

In training when they're in Stand mode, just beat them up ussually hit them up in the air.
They eventually will attack you with their A attack.

I remember in Melee CPU's just stopped and stood in place at random times. Good to see that's been fixed.

When I went against a Toon Link while playing as Toon Link, the CPU kept repeating what I did. Whenever I used the arrows, he countered with arrows immediately.

But, if CPU's learn your button presses, then doesn't that mean they might learn how to use the Infinite Dimensional Cape?

What I find is VERY strange is that CPU's will actively edgeguard you in Brawl+ when the No Auto-sweet spot ledge code is activated.

They just have the most hax0r reflexes. They poweshield every single attack, and all their grabs connect, even if you're in the air directly above them. Hax.

On the flip side, they sometimes jump off and just die, or they don't even try to recover and die at 7%. Or they run into fully charged f-smashes.
