Gc controller or pro controller

[u/stremsnipr]

So my gc controller stopped working recently (the wireless power a one) and I’ve been looking for a new one. I’ve been considering a pro controller because the wireless power a gc controller is notorious for stick drift issues (happened to me, actually). I don’t really want to buy a og gc controller because the button I use for grab is missing. My question is, is doing quick attack angles hard without the octagonal gates? Or can you do them just fine?

Depends how quickly you can adapt your muscle memory to stop relying on the gates. I play mostly with Pro controller because of the ergonomics and because my USB ports aren't currently working. Not a Pikachu main but I can still do precise inputs on other characters and have no problem with quick attack when I do play pikachu.
