Pikachu is much stronger than he was before. His smashes are all very good. His down smash is perfect for setting up for juggles, and his front smash has range, priority and power. His aerials are all very fast. Pikachu can easily juggle opponents with thunders and fast aerials.

Pikachu's one disadvantage is that he is outranged in the air. Think of Marth's sword slashes against Pika's aerials. Marth has both priority and range advantages

[edit] Final Smash

Volt Tackle: Pikachu transforms into a huge sphere of electricity that you can move around the screen to hit anything in the path, plus Pikachu gains the power to go through platforms. Press to make Pikachu Spark, damaging anyone in the vicinity. This attack lasts about 15 seconds, and will do around a good 60-80% damage. However, this attack is hard to control, much like Sonic's Final Smash.
