Introduction: Who is Pikachu? He�s present in any game with �Pok�mon� in its name and the last two Super Smash Bros games. 2. Controls D-pad: move your character; - Button: grabs; + Button: pausing; 1: special moves; 2: smash moves; A Button: Unleash your Final Smash!; 3. Final Smash: Volt Tackle What does it does? Answer: Pikachu transforms into a deadly and mighty electrical ball that kills opponents even on very low percentages, where you have the possibility of racking up damage. Damage:~60 to 80% damage total+ 3% with spark How long it lasts:~15 seconds 4. Weight class: Lightweight 5. Pros: Speedy: He is a very fast character, that aids his approach and offense options; Lots of KOs options: He doesn�t rely on just one KO option, instead, he has 4 or 5 KO options to deal with most of the cast. Attack ranges and variety: Some of his attacks need to be executed close to his body to work properly, while others, namely D-pad+ side, that hits opponents far away. Recovery: One of the best in the game! He has two options to recover in this game, Skull Bash and Quick Attack. Size: small, which gives big characters(like Bowser), a run for their money. Wall jump: Useful when needed. Cons: Lightweight: I do not know if this can be considered a con, because Pikachu is more damage tolerable then most lightweight characters that I know. 6.
