Pikachu Player Guide

Pikachu Player Guide

Definitely good for a beginner Pikachu player. The only disagreement I have is your assessment of down throw. I personally use down throw all the time as it is one of the best ways to start an aerial combo. I only switch to forward/up throw once the opponent is out of percent range for down throw combos

Yeah dthrow is great, I didnt use it much when I made the guide. I use it to keep people in the air with up airs.
This review is very informative. It teaches a ton of the specifics of Pikachu and even has a video to help make all the explanations easier.

Only problem is that neutral air was forgotten in the video. Other than that, this review is perfect for your needs.

Yeah I completely forgot about that xD I would just say to use it Out of shield and the fact that if you use it early enough in a short hop, the entire move animation completes allowing you to land with no lag. Same with his dair, though that requires stricter timing.
Covers a lot of things an experienced Pikachu player already knows through trial and error, but with it's in-depth look on percentages and things of that nature, this is nothing short of a fine guide for both beginners and intermediate players!

Nice job!
very good very well prepared
As an aspiring Pikachu player, I found this guide to be very helpful and informative. Lots of good detail about Pika's moves.
Thunderjolt still in a ball kills at 777% At the edge of lumiose city omega to the corresponding blast zone [lucina/robin] doesn't kill going to the opposite edge from one edge, and doesn't kill from the middle of the stage either]
Very nice guide! I learned quite a bit about pikachu which I didn't know. already. The video aid made it very easy to understand, and generally it had a lot of good information, though one thing I feel you didn't stress enough is how good Pika's Nair is.
