Pichu (Super Smash Bros.): Difference between revisions

Pichu is a clone of {{SSB|Pikachu}}, meaning it shares much of the same moveset with no more than minor changes. Pichu is smaller and faster than Pikachu and has the ability to wall jump, so it can move around the stage with more ease and chase down opponents to extend combos. It also has surprising power - its smash attacks and some aerials can KO opponents at percentages as low as 80%, and a fully-charged {{mv|Skull Bash}} in particular is almost a one-hit KO. Pichu has serious disadvantages, however - it has poor range outside its projectiles, its rolls are short, and despite its small size it can be comboed easily. In addition, it damages itself every time it uses an electric attack, regardless of whether it hits or not. Combined with the fact that it's the lighest character in the game by a significant margin, Pichu can be KO'd far more easily then it can KO others.
