'''Pikachu''' ({{ja|ピカチュウ|Pikachū}}, ''Pikachu''), stylized as '''PIKACHU''' in Europe, is a returning veteran in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It was confirmed along with Mario, Link, and Kirby in the E3 2006 trailer. Ikue Ōtani reprises her role as Pikachu's voice actress in all regions of the game, using a combination of new voice clips and ones reused from ''Melee''. | '''Pikachu''' ({{ja|ピカチュウ|Pikachū}}, ''Pikachu''), stylized as '''PIKACHU'''in Europe, is a returning veteran in ''[[Super Smash Bros.

It is currently in the B tier and holds 8th position, a very slight increase to its B+ tier status in ''Melee,'' where it is ranked 9th place. Pikachu has decent KOing power (though it can rely on Thunder in some situations), quick overall speed, very good [[recovery]] with many options as well as being unpredictable, good [[edgeguarding]] game with a quick and powerful neutral aerial and tricks that allow it get to the [[edge]] quickly, and a good [[grab]] and [[throw]] game (having two [[chaingrab]]s). ''Brawl's'' new physics have also helped it a lot; Pikachu is harder to [[combo]], its grab range is no longer the shortest, its Thunder is not as laggy, and it gained various new tactics such as [[Quick Attack cancel]]ling. Pikachu also has strong [[momentum cancelling]] abilities, with its up aerial and [[Skull Bash]] being very useful in this particular aspect. In addition, Pikachu has a great defensive game, with its QACs being very useful for avoiding [[pressure]], escaping certain situations, and playing [[mindgame]]s. It also possess one of the best [[spot dodge]]s in the game along with {{SSBB|Link}}, {{SSBB|Falco}}, {{SSBB|Yoshi}}, and {{SSBB|Toon Link}}. It also has useful [[OoS]] moves such as up smash and neutral aerial. | It is currently in the B tier and holds 8th position, a very slight increase to its B+ tier status in ''Melee,'' where it is ranked 9th place.
