Pichu is a playable fighter in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''. It is an unlockable character, unlocked by beating Event Match 37: [[bulbapedia:Legendary Pokémon|Legendary Pokémon]], or by playing 200 Melee matches. Afterward, Pichu must be defeated in a match on [[Pokémon Stadium]].

Pichu's moveset is similar to [[Pikachu]]'s, though most of its attacks are weaker, and all of its electrical attacks also deal recoil damage. Pichu is also faster than Pikachu, but is the lightest character in the game, making it easily thrown off the stage. Its neutral special move is Thunder Jolt, which involves Pichu launching a ball of electricity rotating across the stage until it collides with an opponent. Its side special move is [[bulbapedia:Skull Bash (move)|Skull Bash]], which has Pichu charging up an attack before launching head-first across the screen, attacking any opponent it hits with a headbutt. Its down special move is [[bulbapedia:Thunder (move)|Thunder]], in which Pichu calls down a bolt of lightning that appears from a cloud above it and strikes any fighters in its path to damage them; if the bolt strikes Pichu, any nearby fighters are damaged by it as well. Finally, Pichu's up special move is Agility, allowing Pichu to warp in the direction held on the control stick in a burst of speed, and again if the direction is changed during the move; however, unlike Pikachu's Quick Attack, it neither gives as much distance nor deals damage.

Pichu is the only character in the game to have two taunts, one for each direction it is facing. It is voiced by {{wp|Satomi Kōrogi}} in both English and Japanese, who does its voice in the ''Pokémon'' anime.
