Pikachu swings its tail upwards, doing 8%-10% damage and | Pikachu swings its tail upwards, doing 8%-10% damage and low knockback, sending opponents horizontally on a moderately low angle (though not enough to be considered a [[semi-spike]]). The knockback of the move varies depending on which area of the tail it hits. Considered the best [[aerial]] in ''Smash 64'' along with {{SSB|Captain Falcon}}'s {{mvsub|Captain Falcon|SSB|up aerial}}, as it is a incredible [[combo]]ing move with a giant [[disjointed]] [[hitbox]] that can also do some good [[shield stun]]. Pikachu players can [[space]] with this move and use it to stop opponent's [[approach]]es. The move can be used in a variety of combos such as a chain of up aerials that can also go offstage to [[edgeguard]] effectively (and is easy to recover from due to Pikachu's gigantic [[recovery]] distance), can be used in a [[short hop]] and followed up by an {{mvsub|Pikachu|SSB|up smash}} into a {{mvsub|Pikachu|SSB|down special|alt=Thunder}} as a [[Thunderspike]] combo at moderate percentages, and can be followed up by more of Pikachu's versatile and disjointed aerials such as {{mvsub|Pikachu|SSB|back aerial}}. | ||
