Volt Tackle

Volt Tackle.

Volt Tackle is the name of Pikachu's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Once Pikachu has collected the Smash Ball, it will proceed to charge up a massive amount of electricity. Once charged up, it will dash incredibly quickly in any direction the Control Stick/D-pad is pointed. This will send anyone it hits flying in the air. The move can be easily used in mid-air. If the attack is canceled in mid-air, Pikachu will be unable to move.

Origin

Volt Tackle is named after a secret move in the Pokémon Advance games and later that only members of the Pikachu family can learn. This move in Pokémon is a direct reference to the signature move of the titular character of a Genesis game called Pulseman made by Game Freak. The move's look and controls in Brawl are also direct references to the move's look and controls from Pulseman.

Trivia

• Volt Tackle is pikachu's fifth move ,however pokemon can only have four moves
