Pikachu is is light and quick, but possesses strong attacks. | Pikachu is is light and quick, but possesses strong attacks, making him a potentially formidable foe. One of the key moves to look out for is his down smash. It's lightning quick and has a long hitbox duration, making it easy to hit with, yet also has considerable knockback and damage. It's almost the sole reason you'll want to use your slightly superior range to your advantage. | ||
If you're watching for it, Thunder is predictable and easy to dodge, but is nonetheless a fearful move you should watch for (especially if you're high above Pikachu, as it will hit you sooner and can more easily knock you off the top). At the slightest misuse of this move, you can punish the little rodent with a potent attack of your choice. | |||
Copying Pikachu can be worthwhile, as the additional range of Thundershock can be surprisingly valuable in Kirby's game when used from a safe vantage point. Like Mario's Fireball, it can also used to clear the way for a safer recovery when used at the right angle. Although normally Pikachu can't knock you after he's copied, it's possible for an expert, with the right directional influence. | |||
Kirbyciding isn't too difficult compared to other characters, but just be prepared if a thundershock is headed your way instead of a meal. Underciding is somewhat difficult for Pikachu to pull off, but is nonetheless possible. It requires a use of his side-special (Headbutt) followed by an up-special (Quick Attack), or in some instances a dual Quick Attack. Not all players will be able to recover effectively; use your own judgment as to whether or not attempting Undercide is worth the risk. | |||
