SSBM TAS/TAP: All-Star Mode with Pichu in
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 окт 2024
- This is a tool-assisted speedrun (TAS for short), meaning I played the game frame-by-frame and used savestates to get the outcome I wanted. This was not played in real time.
I had a prolonged weekend thanks to an ice storm, so I spent it making this. In this TAS, I clear Melee's All-Star Mode with Pichu without taking damage. Obviously with Pichu, taking no damage is different than with other characters, since about a third of his moveset has recoil damage. So I don't use that third. This leaves me with 3 throws, 3 aerial attacks, all of his tilt attacks, and 2 smash attacks. I can use Thunder as long as the bolt doesn't strike me, and while I can grab and throw, I can't pummel them without taking damage. I also lose his main recovery move so I have to airdodge a few times to recover.
This is not optimized. The only speed restriction I gave myself is that each match had to be under 30 seconds. If this is a record, it's because no one else has attempted it. There's a lot of room for improvement, and I can see this getting under 3 minutes pretty easily.
Here's some fight-by-fight commentary.
[Donkey Kong]
I'm not too satisfied with this fight, but I didn't realize how bad it was until I was like 5 fights in, and I didn't want to redo the entire run, so I left it in. I use a lot of bad attacks for racking up damage quickly (I never use Thunder in a fight after this one). This fight was more or less the first time I've used Pichu since before Brawl came out, and even then Pikachu's never been one of my mains, so I was getting a feel for the character more than anything.
[Ice Climbers]
Hitting Nana with an up-smash keeps her from resyncing with Popo and keeps her out of my way long enough to get the KO. Probably improvable.
[Bowser]
Bowser isn't too smart. If I take the hit, Bowser doesn't recover, making it faster. Perfect shielding is slower, so I use the regular shield. I don't see this fight getting faster in a no-damage run.
[Fox]
Decent, but could be better. Pichu doesn't have a spike, so I don't think I can use Great Fox's lasers to KO Fox fast.
[Dr. Mario and Luigi]
Like the Bowser fight, I take advantage of how Melee's CPUs don't deal with holes very well. This can be done faster if there's a better way to lead them into the hole, and I bet there is.
[Ness and Roy]
I spent forever trying to get the car to KO them, but the only way I managed was by taking damage, so I just KOed them normally.
[Link and Falco]
Falco isn't too smart either. Also the rock on the left side is really close to the blast border, so a backthrow KOs Link at pretty low health.
[Yoshi and Zelda]
Sheik what are you even doing?
[Pichu, Mewtwo, and Young Link]
Pretty happy with this fight. This is where I discovered that Pichu's back-throw has invincibility frames, which are pretty damn useful when the enemies start to pile up. Also stupid AI Pichu jumps right in front of the Super Scope right when it charges enough to KO him.
[Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and Kirby]
Luck manipulation got me a Home-Run Bat. I tried throwing it left after I caught it, but it didn't have enough knockback. Throwing it down deals 1% more damage and has just enough knockback to KO Kirby. Also I spent a few rerecords getting the bat-catch taunt.
[Marth, Ganondorf, and Samus]
I'm going up against 3 characters with better range than me, so it took some doing to get some damage on them. I dodge more in this fight than the others. Luck manipulation got me the Warp Star, and I use it one frame before Samus would hit me. I tried to lure everyone to the star by the time it made its impact, but I missed Samus. Luckily I was able to hit her with an up-smash, so it wasn't much slower. Definitely room for improvement.
[Peach, Captain Falcon, and Mario]
Luck manipulation got me double Lip's Stick action. Item juggling is just the most fun thing ever when doing TASes. I approach Captain Falcon kind of awkwardly to avoid his get-up attack before getting the KO.
[Mr. Game & Watch]
up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air up-air
Rerecord count: 1520+
1520 is the count in the movie file, but I redid some fights by reloading from earlier saves, and I no longer have the data for those fights. With them, I estimate the rerecord count is closer to 1900.
That taunt bat catch at 4:41 blew my mind
Ruberu Nekozuki me too!!! 😂😂😂
Wow wtf
Never underestimate TAS
That's so fucking funny and awesome.
Perfect timing
A skilled Pichu can beat any Fox.
Do you watch*
And yes, it's a MH joke. "A skilled Roy can beat any fox"
Only with hacks tho
@@vtubermusicwild279 the pichu is a cumputer skilled player so pichu is the best character in game now
So True
.how to describe something cute and badass with one word
"Pichu"
Ygdu
Th
Or Kirby
and suddenly, the mass murdering of Mr. Game and Watch's
The Piplup Crusade lol
*G O O D !*
It's funny how about half of the people commenting don't know what TAS is. And they say he is the best Pichu player ever xD
What is it?
It's funny how you have exactly my same profile picture.
*the same profile picture
Jonathan Solorzano OMG LOL
man this TAS guy sure is good, he should play in tornaments, huyuck huyuck huyuck
So, a lot of people are asking what TAS stands for. It means tool-assisted speedrun. A normal speedrun is played by a human in real-time. A tool-assisted speedrun, by contrast, is constructed using an emulator with an input recording/playback feature, typically taking advantage of frame-by-frame gameplay and savestates. This allows gameplay in TASes to be more perfect than what's possible in a normal speedrun, because any minor mistake can be redone as many times as the creator feels like it, and each move can be meticulously timed beyond what a human could reliably do.
Is the description hidden for some people? Because the first line of the description describes what this video is. I mean, I thought you had to scroll past the description to leave a comment, so do people just skip it and ask without checking? I left a bunch of info in there for a reason...
what's your IQ
+Aldrasio How do you manipulate the the RNG?
Trial and error. The RNG engine is based on inputs, but only if those inputs actually make the character do anything (i.e. you can't just mash X after using your double jumps and change which items spawn). Unfortunately that's all I know. When I did this, I looked to see if anyone had disassembled the RNG engine, but all I found were ways that people manipulated G&W's hammer. And even then, that had nothing to do with the RNG engine itself. In the end trial and error was the best method.
Aldrasio
Okay Thanks :)
+Judge ikr
The melee all stars is the best of all, The randomness of the characters made it different each time. I love smash 4 and brawl but this has the best All star mode by far
Pichu won a baseball game :3 4:43
Home Run!!!!
Yeah that pose and the base ball bat at that point was very picture perfect
Benjamin Navarro come on and SLAM!!! Anda welcome to the JAM!!!
4:43 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH THAT BASEBALL BAT CATCH
I want a Pichu so bad! It's so adorable!
Me too! :(
Vinny Exe yes
What about Pichu with, as a final Smash, the assist move he does in Pokémon Ranger : Guardian Signs?
Lil' Boyo He back boi so one v one and I’ll reck your face bro
If only pokemon were real :'v
I think it's funny how pichu was the only character in ssbm with multiple taunts.
***** In Melee?
Show me his move.
Hey! Listen! I can't use links. I'm not very courageous...
+Unkown Gamer AG what about fox?
autochat Good point... Though does the special easter egg count as a taunt?
3:56 Pichu killed his own brother! 😭😭
Edit: Thanks for the heart!
this has my vote for the most interesting TAS run for this game with the criteria it meets since alot of Pichu's attacks damage itself. Bravo.
Pichu Training for Smash Bros Ultimate
I've always been fascinated by these TAS videos, they're so awesome.
have u ever tried one urself?
+ISO Tomas Perez don't know how
This is probably the most interesting speed run, minus the having to use the same moves I commend the fortitude for trying to not input the other attacks during this play through/during the making of.
That's some good Sheik AI right there.
'no damage' and 'Pichu' are 2 which are words not meant to be said in the same sentence
i love this little guy.
#bringpichubacktosmash
no dark marth is next on the roster
Lord Spoonz no
HELL NO!
AGREE
Yes. Bring back Ivysaur, Snake, and Wolf too.
I laughed waaay more than I should have, knowing this was a TAS.
But, the human brain just naturally gets so much enjoyment out of seeing Pichu beat the living shot out of literally everything.......especially Fox, fuck fox.
(falco by association)
OMG PICHU
Did you mean 5mash
If they make 5mash soon, then YES. BRING HIM BACK.
SoaringKiyo LORD IF TH-*gets NONSCOPED*
well, he may not be in smash 4, but he is in smash switch, also known as super smash bros ultimate!
he’s in smash 5
holy crap, even pichu can outsmart mewtwo the psychic
I actually think a Pichu run would be more interesting if instead of being a "no damage" run it was a "no hits taken"/"only recoil damage" run. That way, more of Pichu's kit could be exploited.
true
+FlameUser64 I agree
People say ultimate Pichu is broken but Melee Pichu has a W A V E D A S H
Like everyone else in the game
TAS asside can you imagine someone pulling this off in real life or EVO? After the first stock I would politely say GG, cry myself to sleep and jump off a cliff the next morning. 😭
Pichu NEEDS to come back in Smash 4 P.S. coolest photo at 4:44
6:10 Itachi murders most of his clan.
(Reanimated by Pixar)
That's why i love this pokemon
This somehow reminded me of Dragonball and kid Goku. Everyone underestimated Goku till he kicked everyone into oblivion, just like Pichu here :P
See, Pichu has tournament potential if you use him right.
Profile picture link?
TAS can even make unviable trash look good, Pichu just sucks.
First Name Last Name Cause you never tried getting good with him.
He damages himself and dies extremly early, those dont go hand in hand
This is a TAS.
FLAWLESS VICTORY. PICHU WINS.
Let’s come full circle ⭕️
Let’s get Raichu in Smash Ultimate!!! 😃
#PICHU IS THE BEST POKEMON EVER
We must all become Pichu
(Jaw Drops) Wow, great use of thunder against DK!
Pichu is an great tiny.
Holy crap using pichu with no damages? No way!
Thats One Strong Baby Mouse
I love this pokemon..this is a baby picachu💕💗❤
You did the inevitable, the impossible,the inconvenient.
Smash ultimate pichu just wanted to pay melee a visit
3:34 lmao that was hilarious
Im here because pichu is coming back !!!!
we missed you, pichu!
FireSonicYT actually no one did (expect for a very select few) since Pichu is a terrible character to use
Mario87456 no he is not don’t say that about pichu
@@Mario87456 oh really now?
lol, now that smash ultimate is out, Pichu is actually looking to be a LOT better than he was in melee. high tier at least.
FireSonicYT, Moral: You don’t f**k with pichu
hey,can I download this Video please bacause I need some Pichu scenes for my Video and I havent go melee.I will credit you and link you back to your channel,plaese!!!!!!!!!!!
As long as I'm credited, you can go ahead and use it.
+Aldrasio thank you so much,you help me a lot
I don’t know how pictures and no damage were accomplished, but it’s pretty cool anyway 😃
OMG when pichu threw the bat in the air, it landed in its hands when taunting Lol.
Welcome to the salty spitoon, how tough are ya?
How tough am I? HOW TOUGH AM I? I played All stars very hard mode on Melee with no damage.
Yeah, so?
With Pichu.
Uh, Right this way, sorry to keep ya waiting.
Pichu the mean killing machine
6:09 - 6:23)
Best Part
G&W deserved this
Is Mr. Game & Watch really that light?
Pichu=power
this was a rampage video of pichu didnt make it to smash 4.
lol
Well pichu did sorta made it to smash 4, in some theories stated that the pikachu in smash 4 is actually pichu from melee who evolved into pikachu, since pikachu is wearing the blue goggles that pichu was wearing in melee and while the original pikachu from 64 and melee died of age.
But Nintendo Was Leaked MAking Pitchu returning in Super Smash Bros Ultimate
Smasher Little were glad he didn’t
that baseball catch tho
4:40 (Kirby screams)
Wow! You just beat everybody without even trying! Not bad!!
Love pichu💛
God you're amazing.
You must be worlds best Pichu user of all time.
No damage, how on Earth did you managed that.
I know how the CPU fight, but I still lose.

OLYMPUS KittenPoPtArT TAS? But the title didn't referred to it. Perhaps he didn't tell us.
It also seemed a little too easy.
***** Ah, now I see.
I didn't know first that TAS means tool-assisted speedrun.
Damnitguy damn you were a idiot back then
Jk
Pichu is op
Roy kinda sounds like Pit in the later Smash games!
Gr8 jobs my boyz
4:41 すげぇwww
You'Re Crazy.
You are a PRO
+SuperDanix88 he is not a pro
4;03 El mejor grito de la historia ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) XDDDDD
Wahhhh
There's something very funny about starting the game, and as fast as physically possible, going to very hard Adventure Mode to play as Pichu
A threat to itself and others....
My ass
Warp Star kill on Marth and Ganon was fucking sex! XD
4:43 That bat...
so adorable ♥3♥
When Very Hrad difficulty turns to Very Easy....
yo whats that really fast dash you did in one of the portal rooms? the sound tips it off
the last portal room
+Corvax It's just a regular wavedash, but I made the stick input just barely angled towards the ground instead of doing the full 45 degrees. I doubt anyone could consistently do it in realtime, but this community's surprised me before.
What does TAP mean? Tool-assisted ...?

JJ R, nice thanks.
But Yoshi holding a Pichu in Yoshi's Island Pokemon Edition
It is damage because Pichu damages hisself with Electric attacks 🧠.
Wow. I always heard pichu was horrible
Hིྀeིྀ iིྀsིྀ
OLYMPUS KittenPoPtArT no pichu is da bomb: DON'T DISRESPECT IT PUNK!
+Daniel M Gee. It's almost as if that's lore friendly. Oh wait. It is.
+Retro Hero 276 They say Pichu's terrible as shit,but they're scrub!
Christian Marrero no because he damaged himself like magikarps pokemon card
Description lies. It says you don't use Up Aerial again until G&W, but you actually use an Up Aerial against Fox. Just saying.
+FlameUser64 Ah, you're right. Oops.
+FlameUser64
Just so you're aware, there is a significant difference between a lie and a mistake.
oreocookies32
Yes, I'm well aware. I was trying to make a joke, sort of. I guess it kinda fell flat, didn't it.
When you take no damage with pichu Kreygasm
How long did this take to do in real time?
About 4 days, on and off. I'm guessing about 20 hours of work in total.
Oh my god
Nair your way to victory
5:45 こっからの地雷お手玉好き
The Trophy Is Pichu Sleeping
I want pichu back in ssb4 it would be hilarious
No, what would be hilarous is Spongebob, Goku and Shrek officially being in Smash.
aquamos29 nah, we got Lucina instead
He’s coming...
He's back in ultimate
4:48 how the hell man that's amazing
John Evansen what
wow youre the best pichu player i ever seen
+Ķeanu Degreef mewtwoking has played pichu MUCH MUCH better then this.... and this guy used save states. and even after that there are a lot of good pichu players have you seen like a tournament.... ever
+BlazeChan so there is a pichu pro player awesome
I see two bad comments, one, this is a tas bot so it is not s human and it is practically impossible to do be better than a tas bot. (No one ever has)
+Steve Damon Actually you're wrong.In an IL speedrun for Sonic Adventure DX THC did a Tas for Windy Valley with Tails,but another RUclipsr did that same stage faster without Tas.It's possible,but very improbable
Sonikku A were talking about ssbm not sonic adventure
No damage with pichu would be hard considering some attacks hurt yourself if it wasn’t TAS
gotta get that fighter stance!
Am love pichu
Yes
How things have changed
Dude no hits period sweet and so fast😎
Dude fox ouaaaaaa
0:41 Say Cheese!!!!
Nvm wrong comment don't comment on this, DONT LIKE EITHER
This is tough with pichu because he does damage to himself
Pichu's pissed because he didn't make to Smash 4.
They're taking their anger out
AWESOME GUY}
ese pichu fue criado en el planeta vegita.
Gimpchu*
Hilarious nonetheless :D
Kira?
I'm not gonna main him, I'll just play him
O don't care that this is 8 years ago, but damn. I only beat normal mode.
