Agility is Pichu's up special move. When performed, Pichu will make a quick teleport-like action in any direction. Inputting another direction during this first teleport allows Pichu to immediately perform a second teleport upon finishing the first. Unlike Pikachu's Quick Attack, any enemy caught at the mid or end point of these teleports will not be dealt any damage. Pichu will also be dealt 1% damage for the first teleport and 3% if it uses the second teleport.
Origins
In the Pokémon games, Agility greatly increases a Pokémon's Speed, and can be stacked up to 3 times (from double to triple and finally quadruple its original value). Competitive battlers usually work their Pokémon's speed so that after one Agility, the user is faster than most other Pokémon, ensuring that they go first.
Other uses
Pichu's up special has 1 frame of lag if the player hits the ground correctly, making it the most lagless move in SSBM, but if the player messes up, they will have 14 frames of lag. The player can quickly jump and use the up special and then input another attack. For reference, look here or here for more details and tricks.
