A Pivot Grab is a type of grab that a character can use. While dashing, a character can pivot in the other direction, but at that exact same moment of pivoting, the player can press the grab button. This results in a grab that has a longer reach then most normal grabs. The Pivot Grab can help grab opponents that constantly roll behind opponents that are dashing.

Pivot Grabs are generally faster (in cooldown) than a character's running grab, some exceptions that are faster than standing grab include Yoshi's one. Other Pivot Grabs that are significantly faster than "regular" grabs include Lucas' and Ivysaur's.
