Pros & Cons

This list applies only to the SSBM version of Pikachu.

Pros

  • An agile character
  • Small
  • A fast, immensely powerful up smash (even more powerful than Fox's)
  • Up aerial can semi-spike and KO characters at low percents
  • Extremely long, versatile recovery (albeit with some landing lag on Pikachu's up B)
  • Can chaingrab with the up throw.
  • Decent projectile

Cons

  • Some of its stronger attacks (such as down aerial) are laggy.
  • Poor at comboing.
  • Pikachu's light weight and medium falling speed allow it to be juggled fairly easily
  • Low range on most of its attacks.
