'''Pikachu''' ({{ja|ピカチュウ|Pikachū}}, ''Pikachu'') is a playable [[starter]] character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. It was confirmed June 11th, 2013 during E3 2013 and was among the first wave of amiibo. Visually, Pikachu has a more brighter yellow appearance than ''Brawl''.

Pikachu is once again voiced by its voice actor in virtually ever single appearance it had where it spoke, Ikue Ohtani, using recycled voice clips from ''Brawl'' and ''Melee''.

==Changes from ''Brawl''==
It is debatable whether Pikachu was [[buffed]] or [[nerfed]] overall in the transition from ''Brawl'' to ''SSB4'', as it has received a fair amount of both buffs and nerfs. Its powerful down throw and forward throw chain grabs were removed, which were a large part of Pikachu's previous success in ''Brawl'', and it is less agile. In return, however, Pikachu's combo ability has been improved, its attacks can chain easier, some of its attacks have better range, and some of its attacks can KO more efficiently. Although Pikachu was a high tier character in ''Brawl'', some consider it to be even better in ''SSB4''.

===Aesthetics===
*{{change|Pikachu's appearance has been updated to match the latest ''Pokémon'' games, such as the Generation V and VI main series games and ''{{s|bulbapedia|PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure}}'' and the most recent episodes in the Pokémon anime; its model has been altered, and continues the trend of being gradually less chubby with each additional appearance. Pikachu's coloration is also considerably brighter in comparison to its previous appearances.}}
*{{change|Pikachu has new electrical sound effects.}}
*{{change|Pikachu smiles more often when attacking.}}
*{{change|Pikachu is more bipedal and walks more slanted.}}
*{{change|Pikachu is now given grimacing expressions when grabbed or landed on the ground after being launched.}}

===Attributes===
*{{buff|Pikachu dashes faster (1.765 to 1.85325).}}
*{{nerf|Pikachu jumps lower.}}
*{{buff|Carries crates faster.}}

===Ground attacks===
*{{nerf|Forward tilt, forward smash, and down smash deals less damage.}}
*{{buff|Neutral attack and forward tilt are faster.}}
*{{nerf|Neutral attack, down smash, down tilt, and forward tilt are weaker.}}
*{{buff|Forward tilt has less ending lag.}}
*{{buff|Up tilt has drastically less [[ending lag]] and much lower knockback scaling, making it more useful at lower percentages.}}
*{{buff|Down tilt is slightly faster and has more chances of tripping due to lower knockback.}}
*{{nerf|Forward smash and down tilt has less range.}}
*{{change|Forward smash's charging and attacking animation is slightly altered, where Pikachu stands on one of its hind legs while using the attack.}}
*{{buff|Sweetspotted dash attack is much stronger, while sourspotted dash attack is more useful as a combo finisher.}}
*{{nerf|Dash attack and down smash have slightly slower start up.}}
*{{buff|Forward smash deals 2 hits and has a larger hitbox, giving it more KO potential.}}
*{{nerf|Forward smash and down smash have more ending lag.}}
*{{buff|Up smash is stronger. It can now KO under 90% when fully charged and sweetspotted.}}
*{{nerf|Up smash comes out one frame later, and deals much less knockback if sourspotted in the very last few frames, where it also has less hitstun and is near useless.}}
*{{buff|Down smash and Forward smash are much harder to [[SDI]] out of.}}
*{{change|Down smash's animation is slightly altered: Pikachu now spins around several times before clumsily ending on its rear while using the move.}}

===Aerial attacks===
*{{buff|Neutral aerial is faster.}}
*{{nerf|Neutral (sweetspotted), back, and up aerial deals less damage.}}
*{{nerf|Neutral aerial has less range.}}
*{{buff|Forward aerial has reduced [[landing lag]], is faster, easier to connect all hits, and the final hit is more powerful to the point where it has KO potential offstage.}}
*{{buff|Back aerial has higher KO potential, as all hits now connect better.}}
*{{buff|Up aerial has less ending lag, giving it more combo potential, and has now received a hitbox that hits with slightly less knockback and a lower angle, almost entirely reverting it to its ''Melee'' form.}}
*{{nerf|Up aerial deals slightly less shield damage.}}
*{{nerf|Down aerial's first hit has higher knockback growth, making landing both hits harder.}}
*{{buff|Down aerial's second hit has a longer range, with slightly higher knockback growth, and deals slightly more shield damage.}}
*{{buff|Up aerial can now almost KO at 170%.}}

===Throws/other attacks===
*{{buff|Pikachu's grab and dash grab are faster.}}
*{{nerf|Pikachu's grabs have less range, though not as limited as in ''Melee''.}}
*{{nerf|The global removal of chain grabbing harmed Pikachu drastically, making it lose one of its best strategies from ''Brawl'' as well as significantly harming its damage racking game.}}
*{{nerf|All throws (except forward) and pummel deals less damage.}}
*{{buff|Pummel is faster and has a larger hitbox.}}
*{{change|Back throw has a more vertical angle.}}
*{{buff|Up throw is stronger to where it can KO around 200%.}}
*{{nerf|Down throw appears to have higher knockback growth, for it to not chain grab.}}
*{{buff|Down throw is more useful for aerial followups and combos.}}
*{{nerf|Front floor attack has less knockback.}}
*{{buff|Back floor attack has more knockback to protect Pikachu overall. It also has more ground and less start-up time.}}

===Special moves===
*{{buff|[[Skull Bash]] travels farther when charged.}}
*{{nerf|[[Skull Bash]] is weaker and has slightly more ending lag, making it more punishable.}}
*{{nerf|[[Quick Attack]] cannot be cancelled into the ground anymore, removing the possibility of the [[QAC]] technique. It also is slower, has more ending lag, and has less total distance.}}
*{{buff|[[Quick Attack]] has a new technique called Quick Attack Ledge Cancel, which can be used on ledges, moving platforms and tilting stages. The second warp of Quick Attack deals slightly more knockback.}}
*{{buff|{{b|Thunder|Pokémon}} falls faster and has more combo potential and meteor smashes, despite being very difficult to edgeguard and combo at high percentage. The meteor smash hitbox can set up into shockwave hitbox around Pikachu, allowing Pikachu to have KO set-ups.}}
*{{nerf|Thunder has shorter vertical range, and more difficult to land, which when combined with the new hitbox, makes thunderspike very difficult to pull off, significantly reducing its usefulness. The shockwave hitbox around Pikachu is less powerful.}}
*{{buff|[[Volt Tackle]] lasts slightly longer.}}
*{{nerf|Volt Tackle is slower, deals less damage and less knockback.}}
*{{buff|A smaller, purple ball of electricity appears at the "target point" of Volt Tackle, making it easier to understand and control.}}

==Moveset==
{{MovesetTable
|game=SSB4
|neutralcount=1
|neutralname=&nbsp;
|neutral1dmg=1.4% (tip), 1.2% (mid), 1% (base)
|neutraldesc=Does a very quick headbutt with negligible damage and knockback. Can be used rapidly if the [[A button]] is held, allowing it to deal more damage and potentially [[trip]] opponents.
|ftiltname=&nbsp;
|ftiltangles=3
|ftiltupdmg=10%
|ftiltsidedmg=9%
|ftiltdowndmg=8%
|ftiltdesc=Plants itself on its upper paws and kicks its lower paws in front of its body. The move has increased knockback when angled up, but has a chance to [[trip]] when angled down.
|utiltname=&nbsp;
|utiltdmg=5%
|utiltdesc=Swings its tail above its body in an arc. A very fast attack with low base knockback and scaling, which can reliably set up into its aerials.
|dtiltname=&nbsp;
|dtiltdmg=6%
|dtiltdesc=Sweeps its tail in front of itself. Is very quick in terms of both [[startup]] and [[ending lag]]. Has a change of [[tripping]] opponents.
|dashname=&nbsp;
|dashdmg=10% (clean), 6% (late)
|dashdesc=Jumps forwards, headbutting. Very laggy and easily [[punish]]ed if whiffed, but has high knockback, allowing it to KO near the edge at very high percentages.
|fsmashname=&nbsp;
|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|15}} (early), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|18}} (clean), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|12}} (late)
|fsmashdesc=Rears back, then ejects an attached jolt of electricity from its cheeks while leaning forwards. In terms of knockback, this move is far stronger when hit inside the jolt, and is weakest when hit with Pikachu's cheeks during startup.
|usmashname=&nbsp;
|usmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|13}} (clean tail), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|14}} (clean body), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|11}} (mid), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|7}} (late)
|usmashdesc=A quick backflip while using its tail to attack. This move is slightly stronger when hit close during startup.
|dsmashname=&nbsp;
|dsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|2}} (hits 1-5), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSB4|3}} (hit 6)
|dsmashdesc=Spins around in place repeatedly whilst surrounded with electricity. A multi-hit move with decent power but [[punish]]able [[ending lag]].
|nairname=&nbsp;
|nairdmg=8.5% (clean), 5.5% (late)
|nairdesc=Curls up in a ball and repeatedly somersaults. Extremely fast [[startup]] with good horizontal knockback, making it a good aerial finisher or a useful [[edgeguarding]] move. Can be auto-cancelled when performed alongside a non fast-fell [[short hop]], otherwise high [[landing lag]].
|fairname=&nbsp;
|fairdmg=1.7% (hits 1-4), 3% (hit 5)
|fairdesc=Does a constant forward aileron roll while surrounded by electricity. The move consists of multiple hits, with the final one dealing decent horizontal knockback. The first few hits have little landing lag, which can potentially set up into a grounded move or [[grab]].
|bairname=&nbsp;
|bairdmg=0.8% (hits 1-7), 3% (hit 8), 4% (landing)
|bairdesc=Spins in a manner similar to its down smash, but without electrical effects. The move consists of multiple hits, with the final one dealing decent knockback. Has high ending lag and very high landing lag if not used alongside a [[jump|full hop]].
|uairname=&nbsp;
|uairdmg=5%/4% (clean), 4% (late)
|uairdesc=Swiftly swings its tail above itself in an arc. Extremely quick with low knockback, this move can combo into itself or set up into a neutral aerial. Can be auto-cancelled when performed alongside a non fast-fell [[short hop]], otherwise some landing lag.
|dairname=&nbsp;
|dairdmg=12% (attack), 4% (landing)
|dairdesc=Does a constant downwards aileron roll while surrounded by electricity. A lingering single hit with decent horizontal knockback, this move can be [[auto cancel|auto cancelled]] in a [[short hop]]. If Pikachu lands during the attack's duration it causes a small shockwave to appear around him, which deals little damage at the cost of high landing lag.
|grabname=&nbsp;
|grabdesc=A quick, short-ranged grab.
|pummelname=&nbsp;
|pummeldmg=1.9%
|pummeldesc=Zaps the opponent. A quick pummel.
|fthrowname=&nbsp;
|fthrowdmg=2% (hits 1-4), 2% (throw)
|fthrowdesc=Places the opponent on its back and shocks them, sending them forward. A multi-hit move. Can set up running up smashes and neutral aerials at very low percentages.
|bthrowname=&nbsp;
|bthrowdmg=9%
|bthrowdesc=Does backwards somersaults with the opponent, then flings them behind itself. Best used near the edge to put the opponent into an [[edgeguarding]] situation.
|uthrowname=&nbsp;
|uthrowdmg=1% (hit 1), 3% (throw)
|uthrowdesc=Places the opponent on its head, then headbutts them upward. Does not have many followup options and does low damage, with a down throw usually being a better option.
|dthrowname=&nbsp;
|dthrowdmg=3% (hit 1), 5% (throw)
|dthrowdesc=Places the opponent on the ground, then jumps on them. Consists of multiple hits. Can set up neutral and up aerials at very low percentages.
|floorfname=&nbsp;
|floorfdmg=7%
|floorfdesc=
|floorbname=&nbsp;
|floorbdmg=7%
|floorbdesc=
|floortname=&nbsp;
|floortdmg=5%
|floortdesc=
|edgename=&nbsp;
|edgedmg=7%
|edgedesc=
|nsdefname=Thunder Jolt
|nsdefdmg=4.8% (ball), 6%/5% (wave clean), 5%/4% (wave mid), 4%/3% (wave late)
|nsdefdesc=Fires a jolt of electricity forward. Pikachu's main [[projectile]], and a very useful move for keeping onstage opponents at bay and threatening offstage recoveries. Travels forward whilst bouncing along the ground, and can also travel up walls, below the edge, and along ceilings. If used in the air, it will travel diagonally down instead. Disappears after about 3 seconds.
|nsc1name=Thunder Wave
|nsc1dmg=3%/1% (ball), 3%/1% (wave clean), 2% (wave late)
|nsc1desc=Very similar to the basic version. It is weaker and it lacks range, but can [[paralyze]] grounded targets.
|nsc2name=Thunder Shock
|nsc2dmg=3% (ball), 10% (explosion)
|nsc2desc=Fires a ball of electricity almost horizontally, which disappears upon hitting the ground and does not bounce.
|ssdefname=Skull Bash
|ssdefdmg=6% (uncharged), 22% (fully charged)
|ssdefdesc=Charges and, when the [[B button]] is released, fires itself forward like a missile. When fully charged or close to fully charged, it has KO power. Primarily used as a [[recovery]] move, as it gains a lot of horizontal distance (especially when charged) and does not leave Pikachu helpless. On the ground, it has high landing lag and is very punishable.
|ssc1name=Shocking Skull Bash
|ssc1dmg=1.2% (loop), 3% (last)
|ssc1desc=Hits multiple times as it moves forwards, with the last hit launching the opponent. 
|ssc2name=Heavy Skull Bash
|ssc2dmg=15%/10%/5%/2% (uncharged), 32%/21%/10%/4% (fully-charged), 6%-0% (running)
|ssc2desc=Less travel distance but more damage near the start. If used (uncharged) to cancel reeling from an attack's knockback, the distance traveled nearly doubles, and Pikachu retains some forward momentum while falling after the move.
|usdefname=Quick Attack
|usdefdmg=2% per warp
|usdefdesc=Moves at warp speed in two directions that can be selected via the [[control stick]]. Pikachu's main recovery move, and a quick, unpredictable move at that. The second warp is optional, but if used, the direction must be at least 45 degrees different than the first direction to work. Leaves Pikachu [[helpless]] when used in the air.
|usc1name=Meteor Quick Attack
|usc1dmg=?%
|usc1desc=Each warp travels less distance, but has a meteor effect on foes in the air.
|usc2name=Quick Feet
|usc2dmg=5%
|usc2desc=Goes further than Quick Attack, but can only warp once.
|dsdefname=Thunder
|dsdefpage=Thunder (Pokémon)
|dsdefdmg=6% (bolt meteor), 8% (bolt non-meteor), 15% (blast)
|dsdefdesc=Causes a large thunderbolt to come down on itself. The move is laggy in general, though the shockwave around Pikachu does very high damage and knockback. The bolt itself does moderate vertical knockback, allowing the [[Thunderspike]] technique, though this is very difficult to land. The move also has a [[meteor smash]] hitbox near the thundercloud that sends opponents straight down, allowing potential combos, though landing it in a favourable position for this is difficult.
|dsc1name=Thunder Burst
|dsc1dmg=2% (early), 15%/12% (clean)
|dsc1desc=Creates an electrical blast around Pikachu as if the normal move had struck.
|dsc2name=Distant Thunder
|dsc2dmg=13%/9%/5% (bolt), 6% (blast)
|dsc2desc=The thundercloud starts higher up and does more damage.
|fsname=Volt Tackle
|fsdmg=1% (collision), 8% (spark)
|fsdesc=Pikachu transforms into a ball of lightning and flies around the stage.

:'''Pikachu'''
::{{flag|ntsc}} ''Recognized the world over, Pikachu is an Electric-type Pokémon that stores energy in its cheeks for use in battle. In Smash Bros., Pikachu is a well-rounded fighter with speedy, powerful electric attacks. Quick Attack can be used twice in a row if two directions are input, one after another.''

::{{flag|pal}} ''Pikachu is famous worldwide as the face of the Pokémon series. There's a lot of electricity stored in those rosy cheeks, and in this game, that allows for some devastating attacks, like Thunder Jolt. Tip: Input another direction after using Quick Attack to get a second burst. It's top-notch for recoveries!''

:'''Pikachu (Alt.)'''
::{{flag|ntsc}} ''Pikachu's Thunder Jolt fires off a ball of electricity that bounces across the stage, getting weaker as it travels. It does more damage to enemies in the air. The default down special, Thunder, causes a lightning strike that both shocks opponents and turns Pikachu invincible for a split second.''

::{{flag|pal}} ''Pikachu's Thunder Jolt fires off a ball of electricity that bounces across the stage, getting weaker as it travels.

==Trivia==
*Just like ''Brawl'' when it was released, gender differences were already introduced in the [[Pokémon (universe)|''Pokémon'' games]]. Female Pikachu have a heart-shaped indent on their tails, while the one in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'' doesn't, enforcing the common assumption that the Pikachu in ''SSB'' is male.
*Pikachu is the only playable Pokémon in ''SSB4'' not to have a weakness to the type of another playable Pokémon.
*PIkachu's official ''Smash 4'' artwork greatly resembles its ''Smash 64'' artwork, though this time around, it has much better posture, as it stands up straight and no longer slouches.
