Pikachu (SSB)/Dash attack

Overview

Pikachu does a running headbutt and falls on the ground, doing 9%-12% damage and average knockback. While it can be used as a finisher, its one of the moves Pikachu players will try not to use due to its high ending lag, being predictable, and not being disjointed unlike Pikachu's other moves. Whats more, this move is easy to shield grab and punish, questioning its usefulness. Commonly considered Pikachu's second worst move behind its ftilt.
