64: Best character in the game. Basically 64's version of fox/meta knight/bayo Melee: Way worse than than 64 but still a good character but you're better off learning how to use either fox, falco, marth, shiek, jigglypuff, ice climbers, or captain falcon Brawl: Back to being really good but try to avoid going against the ice climbers at all costs 4: Really good at the start of the game, fell off a bit, back to being really good towards the end, is generally accepted to just be a high tier at the very end but ESAM still over rates the electric mouse at the very end of smash 4 Ultimate: Potentially the best character in the game but the same thing can be said for characters like zss, joker, peach/daisy, and palutena. We will truly never know until all the dlc are released and sakurai stops updating the game. Then we will find out if pikachu is truly the number 1 character or if he is just top 5/10

Pikachu has probably been top tier for so long because he's an archetype that really can't be changed: small, fast, combo character. It's why the characters with the best tier placement throughout all smash history is either Fox or Pikachu. Both are quick characters with combo games. You can nerf the damage, you can nerf kill power, but as long as they are fast and have great frame data (which if you change, you would change the character), you have a high tier.
