t3mporary_126 said: The new style for Pikachu's Thunder raises some questions: 1. Can Pikachu be hurt while it throws someone up? a. If so, will the thunder attack stop b. Or will it be like Ike's special move: aether(?) and Dedede's special move Up + B where he takes damage but the attack continues until it is over? 2. If Pikachu isn't able to throw anyone up, will the thunder cloud still work? Similar to how Cpt. Falcon's special move: Up + B doesn't work if it doesn't connect in Melee and perhaps Brawl 3. When Pikachu throws a foe up, can the foe be knocked away from the thunder coming down (a bomb dropping down on foe from the sky before the thunder cloud strikes 4. Will Pikachu remain invincible a few frames after the thunder attack ends? If I remember correctly, in Brawl he does stays invincible and the game shows this through the animation of him being charged with electricity (and twirling?) a few frames after thunder ends. Hopefully Sakurai goes over this. Personally I hope 1 B happens and Pikachu's thunder cloud still appears if he doesn't throw anyone up |
What you see in the picture is Pikachu doing Up-Smash, Down-B, then Up Smash again. My guess is that the move will be very similar in function but instead of launching characters up and sideways, it'll smash them down to the ground. This is going to make off edge Down-Bs, very deadly indeed.
Signature goes here!
