Pichu (ピチュ, Pichu) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It was confirmed on June 12th, 2018.

Changes from Super Smash Bros. Melee

Like in Melee, Pichu damages itself when using electric attacks. It is not labeled as an Echo Fighter, but it is unknown as to whether or not it has been decloned, as the classification of Echo Fighters is still unknown.

Aesthetics

  • Change Pichu's design and its proportions now match the latest games in the Pokémon franchise. Its colors are more vibrant and it's much more expressive than in Melee.
  • Change Pichu now has squash and stretch in its animations, giving it a bouncy feel.
  • Change Many of Pichu's attacks now have new animations differing from its moveset in Melee.
  • Change Pichu has a new taunt akin to Pikachu's up taunt, except it humorously becomes dizzy afterward.

Attributes

  • Change Pichu can now crawl.

Ground attacks

Special moves

  • Buff Thunder meteor smashes targets hit high above Pichu and into the electric blast, akin to Pikachu's.
  • Change Like with Pikachu's Thunder, the electricity discharged when the lightning strikes Pichu is now yellow rather than blue and has Pichu flash with a dark tint.
  • Change Pichu now bounces back after connecting with Skull Bash. This makes it better for hit-and-run but worse for an approach.
  • Buff Pichu now has a Final Smash, which is similar to Pikachu's: it has Pichu dash quickly around the stage at different angles while surrounded in a ball of electricity, then launching opponents with an electric blast at the end of the move as the ball disappears.
