Pikmin Chain

Pikmin Chain is a Special attack attributed to Captain Olimar in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It is his Up Special Move, and seems to be some sort of Tether Recovery. Pikmin Pluck must be used sometime before using this attack, as Olimar needs at least one Pikmin on the field to use Pikmin Chain. Using the Pikmin following Olimar, Olimar uses them to grab onto the edge of a stage if he's falling off. The Pikmin grab onto each others feet, acting as a Pikmin Chain, hence the name. The less Pikmin, the shorter the range of the chain is. Olimar can then pull himself back to the stage if the Pikmin grab onto the ledge. It is unknown if this can cause damage to any player in its range, or not.
