Pikachu | ==Changes from ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''== | ||
===Aesthetics=== | |||
*{{change|Pikachu has received two new alternate costumes: one that has it wear {{iw|bulbapedia|Moon|game}}'s hat from her official ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Sun and Moon}}'' artwork, and the other based on {{s|bulbapedia|Pikachu Libre}}. Both costumes are female versions of itself, and adequately change its tail to be heart-shaped, akin to female Pikachu in the main ''Pokémon'' games from {{s|bulbapedia|Generation IV}} onwards.}} | |||
Pikachu | ===Ground attacks=== | ||
*{{change|Forward tilt has an [[electric]] effect.}} | |||
===Aerial attacks=== | |||
*{{change|Pikachu has a new [[neutral aerial]]: it releases an electric surge around itself in an all fours stance with its tail pointing upward, which hits multiple times.}} | |||
===Special moves=== | |||
*{{change|The electricity discharged when the lightning from {{b|Thunder|Pikachu}} strikes Pikachu is yellow rather than blue, and has Pikachu flash with a dark tint.}} | |||
*{{change|Pikachu's [[Final Smash]] now involves it dashing quickly around the stage at different angles while surrounded in a ball of electricity (the latter trait akin to [[Volt Tackle]]), then launching opponents with an electric blast at the end of the move as the ball disappears. It is currently unknown if this is still Volt Tackle, or a new Final Smash.}} | |||
==Trivia== | |||
*Pikachu is the first ''Pokémon'' representative to display both male and female variants of itself throughout its costumes. | |||
