 Pikachu returns as a starter character, with its design having been updated to appear in line with its more recent appearances.
-Pikachu is ranked 12th on the ''SSB4'' [[tier list]]. Pikachu received some [[nerf]]s in the transition from ''Brawl'', such as its powerful down throw and forward throw chain grabs (which were a large part of Pikachu's previous success in ''Brawl'') being removed, and lower damage outputs on some moves. In return, Pikachu benefits from the changes to [[hitstun]] canceling, which improve its combo game by enabling its attacks to chain together easier. Some of its attacks' ranges and KO potentials were also improved. However, Pikachu's placement is highly contested among the playerbase: some consider it to be even better than it was in ''Brawl'', while others view its placement as being too high. Despite having a small playerbase in the competitive scene, Pikachu is still considered a dominant force in the metagame thanks to players such as {{Sm|ESAM}}.
