Pikachu and Pichu is the 48th event match of the 51 event matches in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
The player controls a fighter of their choice and must win a stock match against two CPU Pichu and a CPU Pikachu on the Dream Land stage, where the player starts with 2 stocks, the Pichu start with 1 stock, and Pikachu starts with infinite stocks. This event match features no time limit. The red and green CPU Pichu's artificial intelligence is each set at Level 5 and 6, while the CPU Pikachu's artificial intelligence is set at Level 9.
When this match starts, the player's fighter will spawn on the center of the main platform, while the red Pichu spawns on the rightmost soft platform, the green Pichu spawns on the top soft platform, and Pikachu spawns on the leftmost soft platform. The Pichu do not actively attack the player unless they are approached, while Pikachu attacks the player's fighter. If one Pichu is KO'd, the other Pichu will attack the player's fighter. If the player's fighter KOs both Pichu, it will result in a victory.
