Possibly due to its dominating status in competitive play during the early metagame of ''Ultimate'', Pichu was greatly nerfed in game updates. Although its pummel was slightly buffed in update {{SSBU|2.0.0}}, it received several substantial nerfs in update {{SSBU|3.1.0}}. Pichu's hurtbox is larger, forward smash has more ending lag, its infamously strong forward tilt has less knockback scaling, and almost all of its electric attacks deal more recoil damage, noticeably worsening its already abysmal endurance.

Update {{SSBU|11.0.0}} buffed Pichu by reversing some of the nerfs, reducing the amount of recoil damage Pichu receives with some of the electric attacks that were affected in 3.1.0. On top of that, its ear hurtboxes received intangibility during the strong hit of its neutral aerial, making it a slightly safer option in the air.
