Cloud vs Pikachu
In the matchup against Pikachu, it's crucial for Cloud to maintain distance and avoid close encounters, as Pikachu's speed and combo potential can overwhelm him. Utilize Cloud's aerial mobility to space out, and be prepared to shield against Pikachu's quick attacks. When Pikachu uses Thunder Jolt, consider full hopping back air to intercept it while keeping an eye on Pikachu’s positioning for potential anti-air opportunities. Stay aggressive with limit break options when you have them, but always be ready to reposition, as staying stationary can lead to punishing situations.
