Pikachu (SSB)/Up tilt

Overview

Pikachu swings its tail upwards for 9-11% damage. While not superior to Kirby's u-tilt due to its somewhat high ending lag, it is an extremely useful move for combos and one of Pikachu's great combo starters. Pikachu can juggle the opponent many times with this move, from low percentages up until mid or mid-high percentages (depending on who the opponent is), in addition of it being versatile as it can be followed up by virtually any move it wants (usually another u-tilt for shield pressure, a grab, or a up smash followed possibly by Thunder for a Thunderspike).

Overall, one of Pikachu's best moves due to its said combo ability, some range, and a large disjointed hitbox.
