Overview
Pikachu does a running headbutt and falls on the ground, doing 9%-12% damage and average knockback. While its power is high enough to make it a decent move for getting opponents offstage, its very high ending lag and predictability makes it very easy to punish (especially shield grab). This makes its usefulness rather questionable. Commonly considered Pikachu's second worst move behind its forward tilt.
