Pikachu's most salient feature, as with its appearances in previous Smash Bros. However, despite its high position in the American tier list, it is much lower in the Japanese tier list, where it is placed 22nd. Regardless, Pikachu still has great matchups, including being the only character with an even matchup against Meta Knight on the BBR's matchup chart (though this matchup is highly disputed, with most players believing Meta Knight to win the matchup, which is additionally better supported by results), and strong tournament results although Pikachu's representation is small for a high-tier character. It also has subpar range in most of its attacks, with its best finishers having hitboxes close to its body, or in the case of its forward smash, the furthest hitbox is much weaker than the closest, making good spacing an all-around threat to Pikachu, as well as making it more difficult to land its better finishers. However, it has a relatively weak air game, placing it at a disadvantage against characters with particularly powerful air games, such as Marth. It also has useful OoS moves such as up smash and neutral aerial. It also possess one of the best spot dodges in the game along with Link, Falco, Yoshi, and Toon Link.
In addition, Pikachu has a great defensive game, with its QACs being very useful for avoiding pressure, escaping certain situations, and playing mindgames.
Pikachu also has strong momentum cancelling abilities, with its up aerial and Skull Bash being very useful in this particular aspect. Brawl's new physics have also helped it a lot Pikachu is harder to combo, its grab range is no longer the shortest, its Thunder is not as laggy, and it gained various new tactics such as Quick Attack cancelling. Pikachu has decent KOing power (though it can rely on Thunder in some situations), quick overall speed, very good recovery with many options as well as being unpredictable, good edgeguarding game with a quick and powerful neutral aerial and tricks that allow it get to the edge quickly, and a good grab and throw game (having two chaingrabs). It is currently in the B Tier and holds 8th position, a very slight increase to its B+ Tier status in Melee, where it is ranked 9th place. Ikue Ōtani reprises her role as Pikachu's voice actress in all regions of the game, using a combination of new voice clips and ones reused from Melee. It was confirmed along with Mario, Link, and Kirby in the E3 2006 trailer.
Pikachu ( ピカチュウ, Pikachu), stylized as PIKACHU in Europe, is a returning veteran in Super Smash Bros.
