I've always enjoyed those types of characters too. I think it has to do with the added freedom of a fast character, and the precision needed to execute things properly. It's satisfying in and of itself, since it can be difficult to execute
This was genuinely one of the best character guides I've ever seen from a top player. It was easy to understand, informative, and entertaining to keep my interest. Thank you, VoiD.
@@EpicMinecraftFail Loot and pillage the corpses of his enemies. KINDA LIKE BLACK PEOPLE LMFAO. Nah but really pichu and void are kinda upbeat and happy guys
Wow, this is a cool guide! So much personality. Most guides I see are really cut and dry, mostly boring to watch, but you make it really fun; I’d probably watch it even if I wasn’t trying to learn the character. Nice work!
For those confused about the ledge trapping segment. It was a reference to these two videos ruclips.net/video/6uXgqTY5E6I/видео.html ruclips.net/video/78O5WYH3LxA/видео.html Which was a callback on a 2010 video called "When I'm Bored" The original song is here, The part that Void sang starts at 1:14 ruclips.net/video/X3oOQ8XnQWU/видео.html Hope this clears some stuff up
I found this video randomly and only had VAGUE interest in Pichu but this guide was so good/amusing that I really wanna play him now! You've got a knack for showmanship man
Cool a pro player actually being honest in a video and sharing their combos and strats. Not to mention the entertaining and extremely useful content. Subscribe
A great guide! I liked that you did not go too much in deapth here, so that semi- competitives like myself can keep up and still learn a lot. Keep the guides coming!
An actually well edited guide for smash ultimate. Tbh, rare to see as most I've seen are just 45 minutes of raw footage lol. Mad props, vro. Subbed lol.
When I saw you playing Pichu at genesis I decided to try to learn the character. Thanks for this guide! It really helped me get a handle on what to do with the character. I'd love to see more videos like this.
Really happy you made this guide! Been looking forward to it since I picked up the character launch week! Congrats on the tourney win! Pichu mains rise up!
Thanks for the tips, VoiD! I'd like to add a few things I've learned from my experience: Landing with a weak Fair or Bair can net you a grab, but it does very little hitstun and is reactable. Be careful, as some fast moves will interrupt you. You must hitconfirm your Fairs or you'll be punished. If you hit? Keep moving forward to put yourself deeper in the opponent's hurtbox and make a follow up easier. Miss? Drift backward ASAP so you don't get punished, or cross the opponent up (which isn't a get out of jail free, because some characters like Kirby have very fast Bairs) Space everything. You get punished, you get punished hard. Just how it is. DTilt is a better get-off-me than FTilt because it nets more damage. Don't stale your FTilt. USmash is kinda bad tbh. You'll get more kills with Thunder. Tomahawks are very risky in neutral but very fast. You can even do it after a Dthrow or Utilt to bait an option and punish. A basic ledge trap, FWIW: Stand a little over one roll-length from the edge. As your opponent recovers, jump, double jump, and then TJ. Fast fall and land with Nair right on top of where their neutral getup would be. If they wait, the TJ will hit them. Neutral getup or getup attack will get hit by either TJ or Nair. Ledge Jump will get stuffed by the Nair, and if not, you're below them and they're vulnerable, having probably attacked. Ledge Hop will get stuffed by TJ. You haven't covered Roll, but you're in great position to punish. Dair deals about 20% if you get the sweet spot and the landing hit. Forces a tech at very low percents, but usually they can escape until about mid %s. It also sticks out like forever and is big enough to beat out some recoveries. The Fair - RARUair you demonstrated is hard as BALLS. I've done it ONCE. it's SO hard and rarely guaranteed. You're usually better off going for another Fair or just waiting for them to land unless you're confident you can hit it. More often than not, you'll want to RAR your Uairs in neutral so the opponent gets hit by the initial hitbox. Thanks again, VoiD! :D
Just found this guy yesterday through his Pichu bomb combo video. ...I love this man. Thank you for inspiring me to keep playing Pichu. God bless you, sir.
Void I appreciate this video bro, I was looking for a good team and I was considering Pichu and I love your acting & execution on the video. Love it ! Thank you bro
Simply the best guide I've ever seen. Your personality is so funny. 😂 Bring us as much content as you would like to produce. Do it for yourself so you enjoy it as much as we do!
Glad that some one is taking my baby pichu seriously. Been playing him since Melee so glad he is getting some recognition. Would love to play one day !
Pichu is my favorite Pokémon of all time! I was gonna play him even if he sucked but I’m SOOO happy he’s awesome in this game! I want to learn how to be better so thanks for thisb
Please make more Pichu videos, your content is really awesome!! =) Some ideas just in case you’re interested: -How to beat ‘’x’’ character going through Pichu’s harder matchups might be an interesting series if you go in depth. -Advanced Pichu techs or dodge/di traps (for exemple: like fox’s uair in wii u, if they air dodge you fastfall utilt, etc.). -I know it might be early, but I know I’d be interested in seeing a Pichu matchup tier list.
I will note that if you tilt your stick when doing the up air for the combo a little to the right it will set you up in the way he does which allows the follow ups
Void, this was an amazing video. Loved the style of it, what you said and how you said it, it’s hard to put it into words but just know that you got it for next time. You know how to make a good guide / video

Gary Blue Rose move’s called NAIR lmao
THX man
That last one
Every single thing about this video is godlike.
Except that it doesn't have an adventure mode.
The ads are godlike
Even the green screen
Hey we're the same
Void really likes his characters that combo mad hard but die at 60
35 with shulk
Glass Cannon
Fair
I've always enjoyed those types of characters too. I think it has to do with the added freedom of a fast character, and the precision needed to execute things properly. It's satisfying in and of itself, since it can be difficult to execute
And you can't die if the opponent never touches the ground
This was genuinely one of the best character guides I've ever seen from a top player. It was easy to understand, informative, and entertaining to keep my interest. Thank you, VoiD.
Piiichuuu!
Yes we know
Piiiiii-cHuuuUuuu
That part where you taught us how to edgeguard actually hypnotized me. Thanks. I can win tournies now
You are comical. Your unique way of commenting in this video drew me in. Thank you for the laughs void.
Void’s hair looks like it be getting zapped by pichu 👌🏼👌🏼
Atra not racist at all? His hair is just straight up haha
Atra where in that comment was race ever brought into the convo lol
I love it when people delete their replies in shame of either being proven wrong or being r/wooosh'd.
Atra is part of the group.
@@ProwerVolt very satsfying
I L O V E this guide!
It's really funny, you still learn something and not too long.
Fireflare it’s almost like it’s better than Zero’s
Voids personality is honestly a lot like pichu’s lmao
salad I had the exact same thoughts, he seems like such a nice and fun guy
Pichu has a personality?
@@EpicMinecraftFail Loot and pillage the corpses of his enemies. KINDA LIKE BLACK PEOPLE LMFAO. Nah but really pichu and void are kinda upbeat and happy guys
Salad subscribe instead of liking my comments black people-oohhhhh lmao but ironic im black myself
@@eyeccantseeyouu lmao no offense
I friggin love void as a content creator. He's so original, creative and funny. A real joy to watch
Was a top 3 Smash 4 player to watch for me. Now that he plays my main and he's putting out content like this, number 1 easily.
How can one pro be so incredibly wholesome
I could have definitely used some tips when I started playing this game lol
Finally, I have found your gaming channel.
YOU PLAY PICHU?!
*But pichu is a jOkE character*
The only joke is how he laughs at his victims - Alpharad
J.G Jonny The joke is on the opponents.
*laughs maniacally*
He IS a joke character, the joke is how good he is.
Correction: *was* a joke character!
The world needed this! ❤️
I love how in depth you are with button inputs and optimal options for different situations
Wow, this is a cool guide! So much personality. Most guides I see are really cut and dry, mostly boring to watch, but you make it really fun; I’d probably watch it even if I wasn’t trying to learn the character. Nice work!

VoiD, thanks for the guide! It was not only informative, but funny and relaxing! It was super cool to get to know this character by you!
Wow Void, I was really impressed by this video. Short, humorous, and informative. Please do more!
I found this video randomly and only had VAGUE interest in Pichu but this guide was so good/amusing that I really wanna play him now! You've got a knack for showmanship man
The ledgetrap segment help me a lot.
Thank you so much VoiD

I'm not a Pichu main but that was the most fun and funniest video I've seen tonight! Please make more of those soon! Thanks
Best ledge guard advice I’ve ever seen. God bless.

You can tell how much fun he had with this video, this is a good one :)
By far the funniest guide/ tutorial for smash on youtube
This guy knows the meaning of subtle humor. I love it.
I'm so happy you main pichu. Now I don't have to wait for the art of series, thank you.

Pichu just feels good in this game. Behind that happy little face is a being who feeds off of your misery.
Just found this guy yesterday through his Pichu bomb combo video.
...I love this man. Thank you for inspiring me to keep playing Pichu. God bless you, sir.
VOID THAT IS NOW MY FAVORITE CHARACTER GUIDE EVER!!!! SUPER HELPFUL!!!! THANK YOU!!!

Most well done character guide video I’ve seen 👏🏼

Everything about this guide is amazing, and very informative about Pichu, thank you!
Thank you for all the help! I recently decided to main Pichu and this guide was very useful!
Glad that some one is taking my baby pichu seriously. Been playing him since Melee so glad he is getting some recognition. Would love to play one day !
There needs to be an updated pichu video because his tilts have less hitstun now. ;-;
I enjoyed the guide a lot. Unlike most guides you made it very entertaining, which imo is a win.
Just picked up Pichu tonight and I wanted to learn his swag combos. And you sir deliver
Easily the best character guide yet
You are a fn saint because these videos my pichu game is strong! Been rooting for you bro keeping uuup
LOVED this video. Very informative, charismatic, and you sound like you're having fun making it. Pichu gang! :3

Great vid void !! Ending was really funny

Thanks void loving the pichu content, keep it coming!
Yes I like the funny side of void I’VE WAITED FOR THIS FOREVER

5:57 thanks, I usually do down tilt, up air,jump into thunder but this setup looks more reliable
LOL pichu's falling animation while laughing at 7:40
I just close my eyes and hope to get a hit
Too true.
Love your enthusiasm! Great smash player and even better content
From now on, every time I go off stage, I'm singing that song out loud. It's just so cute
that ending was so freaking cute!!
Thanks Void, after watching this now I'm a ledge trap master!
That ending montage was the greatest thing I’ve ever seen 🤣
As someone wanting to play Pichu as a secondary, this helped a lot
The thumbnail is the only reason i need to play pichu.
Pichu is my favorite Pokémon of all time! I was gonna play him even if he sucked but I’m SOOO happy he’s awesome in this game!
I want to learn how to be better so thanks for thisb
Your everywhere lol. Congrats on 10k subs.
Jacob Lopes lol thanks.
Pichu is like a pillow with rocks taped to it inside a tank.
Love the video! I knew you were a tippy top player, but I had no idea that you were so funny, good at explaining and making videos!
1:24 I got ptsd when I saw that Pichu grab ranch... *shudders*
Marth...
Man I am so happy you have your own yt channel.
Moreeeeee pichuuuuuu! Vid was rly good :) enjoyed it bud
Dude I love it. My friends at school all think pichu is bad and then I wreck their day haha!
Very practical, easy to follow, and informative video! Thank you so much :)
Please make more Pichu videos, your content is really awesome!! =)
Some ideas just in case you’re interested:
-How to beat ‘’x’’ character going through Pichu’s harder matchups might be an interesting series if you go in depth.
-Advanced Pichu techs or dodge/di traps (for exemple: like fox’s uair in wii u, if they air dodge you fastfall utilt, etc.).
-I know it might be early, but I know I’d be interested in seeing a Pichu matchup tier list.
Great guide. It was a good mix of serious and funny 🙌
I will note that if you tilt your stick when doing the up air for the combo a little to the right it will set you up in the way he does which allows the follow ups
Directional stick that Is
Hahaha, love the format man. Keep it up! I look forward to possibly seeing a Roy guide.
In case anyone was wondering, the song he’s singing at the end is Let Me Hit It by Sporty-O
Void, this was an amazing video. Loved the style of it, what you said and how you said it, it’s hard to put it into words but just know that you got it for next time. You know how to make a good guide / video
How dare someone dislike this video. This was both funny and teaches at the same time.
Hadnt seen any of your videos before but damn this is really good!
Mario: Pichu sucks, I can grab him easily.
Pichu: (grabs Mario) wanna take that back.
Best guide I have ever watched
So cool learning how to play Pichu better from a pro! Loved your match against ESAM (Pikachu)
