Richter vs Pikachu
When playing Richter against Pikachu, focus on using your fSmash to punish Pikachu's aerial approaches, as its long reach can catch him off-guard during his forward air spam. Keep your distance and use your projectiles strategically; while Pikachu can dodge them with his superior aerial mobility, well-timed Holy Water can disrupt his flow and create openings. Be cautious of Pikachu's quick movements and edge-guarding potential, as his ability to juggle you off-stage can make recovering difficult. Position yourself carefully to avoid getting trapped in his combos, and look for opportunities to capitalize on his landing lag after missed aerials.
Tips for Richter vs Pikachu
- Richter and Simon's play style makes the opponent jump over projectiles then you punish. However, Pikachu has amazing aerials, so projectiles will be tough. Hovever, fSmash is a long attack.
- Pikachu will just spam his forward air till you wont make it back because your recovery is trash.
