==Overview==
After a short delay, Pikachu moves in a straight line in the direction in which the player's control stick is tilted, or upwards if it is not tilted. A [[tilt]] of the [[control stick]] in a different direction will cause another, similar burst. The high speed of this move renders Pikachu nearly invulnerable, but it is exposed at the beginning, middle, and end moments, when it briefly holds still. Quick Attack requires much practice before players can effectively take advantage of its two-direction functionality.

[[File:QuickAttack.png|thumb|left|Quick Attack as it appears in Generation VII ''Pokémon'' games.]]
Quick Attack is a physical Normal-type attack introduced in Generation I in the [[Pokémon (universe)|''Pokémon'']] games. It's a rather weak move, with a low base power similar to Tackle and [[Pound]]. Unlike these other moves, it has a +1 priority, meaning it will go before other moves unless the opponent uses a move whose priority is higher. Pikachu learns Quick Attack by leveling up and can be learned among early levels in any ''Pokémon'' game.
In the main ''Pokémon'' games, Quick Attack is commonly depicted as a single quick dash towards the foe. Pikachu's Quick Attack in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series instead has an unique trail of electrical bubbles, which also deal [[electric]] damage, despite the attack being Normal-type in the origin games. In a similar matter, [[Skull Bash]] in ''Melee'' also has an electrical property attack despite not being an Electric-type attack.

Quick Attack once again serves as Pikachu's up special in ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. It is functionally similar to its ''SSB4'' incarnation, and remains an important approach option for Pikachu. However, Quick Attack canceling is no longer possible.
