'''Volt Tackle''' is [[Pikachu (SSBB)|Pikachu]]'s [[Final Smash]] attack in [[SSBB]]. When Pikachu uses this attack, he temporarily turns into a gigantic ball of light. The ball of light will then fly around the stage at great speeds, and the direction Pikachu goes during this move can be controlled by the player. When an opponent is hit, they take about 10% damage or 20% damage, depending on how much of the attack hits the opponent. The move has little knockback, barely stunning the opponent, but can rack up alot of damage.


Volt Tackle is named after a secret move in the Pokémon Advance games that only members of the Pikachu family can learn. This move in Pokémon is a direct reference to the signature move of the titular character of a Genesis game called Pulseman made by Game Freak.  The move's look and controls in Brawl are also direct references to the move's look and controls from Pulseman.
Volt Tackle is the [[Final Smash]] for [[Pikachu]]. Once Pikachu grabs the [[Smash Ball]], he is encompassed in a ball of electricity and floats speedily across the stage. Enemies touched by this ball will be damaged and Pikachu is difficult to control because of his speed. Unfortunately if the final smash ends with Pikachu floating over thin air, he will be unable to recover and die. This move is based of an electric attack of the same name in the [[Pokemon]] games.
