'''Quick Attack''' is [[Pikachu]]'s [[Up Special Move]].
Pikachu's Up+B, Pikachu teleports in the direction you tap the analong stick


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. Tilting 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.


== In ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]''==

This attack deals no damage. However, it is by far one of the best recoveries overall. Pikachu is notable for having one of the diverse recoveries as well. Pikachu has multiple [[invincibility frame]]s during the beginning and middle. It is possible to attack Pikachu only before and after the bursts. Because of this, Pikachu can [[ledge-stall]] indefinitely. The range of this move also allows Pikachu to go far out from the edge to edgeguard. It is also possible to travel with almost no change in direction between bursts. Pikachu can alternate between taunts and Quick Attack, each canceling the other. Finally, it can be used to escape situations and can go through a portion of the wall in Break the Targets.

==In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''==
Pikachu can deal light damage to characters it passes through. The attack has a huge range, but the second jump requires a minimum rotation of 38 degrees. It has fewer invincibility frames than it does in Smash 64. You can also cancel the move like in Smash 64.
 
==In ''Brawl''==
Pikachu can deal light damage to characters it passes through, being stronger in damage (5%, if hit twice by Pikachu pulling a 180°), but it has less range than in Melee. Thus, people often use [[Skull Bash]] as an additional recovery move. It has more invincibility frames by the edge, however. It is possible to cancel it after the first or second hit. This move also does not suffer from [[Stale-Move Negation]].
