Quick Attack: Difference between revisions

Quick Attack once again serves as Pikachu's up special in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. It is functionally similar to its ''Smash 4'' incarnation, and there is now a red arrow before Pikachu uses the move, indicating what direction Pikachu will travel. One notable downside the move has received however is that Pikachu can no longer edge cancel the Quick Attack, which hinders its utility when used near a ledge. Despite this, Quick Attack remains an important approach option for Pikachu and it has seen a couple of improvements. The main improvements the move has received is that it no longer suffers from RCO lag and Pikachu's body does not stretch as much when using it, making Pikachu harder to hit when it is using it. As a result, it remains one of Pikachu's best tools, as well as retaining its status as one of the best recovery tools in the game.
