Simon vs Pikachu

When playing Simon against Pikachu, focus on utilizing your down special to zone Pikachu and control space, as it can effectively disrupt Pikachu’s approach. Spam your smash attacks when Pikachu is at a distance, particularly the forward smash, which can catch him off-guard and deal significant damage. Be mindful of Pikachu's quick mobility and aerial maneuvers; try to position yourself on platforms to avoid his Thunder Jolt while retaliating with your aerials when he tries to approach from above. Maintain pressure by mixing in your whip attacks to keep Pikachu at bay, and capitalize on any openings with your powerful smash moves.
