'''Pikachu''' (ピカチュウ, ''Pikachū'') is a [[starter character]] in ''Super Smash Bros.'' This character is notable for its fast [[Aerial attack|aerials]], good [[edgeguarding]] ability, and amazing [[recovery]]. As it is a versatile character with negligible weaknesses, a player opposing a Pikachu should never rush straight at the opponent, as its aerials are deadly and are good for countering. | '''Pikachu''' (ピカチュウ, ''Pikachū'') is a [[starter character]] in ''Super Smash Bros.''

It is currently ranked number one in its own S tier on the [[tier list]] (similar to {{SSBB|Meta Knight}}, who also owns a tier for himself at the top of the ''[[Brawl]]'' tier list), for solid attack power, good combo-ability, high priority, and undoubtedly the best recovery in ''SSB''. All of this leads to very favourable matchups; Pikachu is one of only four characters in the entire ''Smash Bros.'' series to have no disadvantageous matchups (along with {{SSBM|Fox}}, {{SSBM|Falco}} and Meta Knight), and it remains the only one in the series to have no even matchups either.

Pikachu also has certain technically even matchups but these depend on stage choice. | ||
