Summary

Pac-Man is a freestyle trap character with both great zoning and rushdown tools.
Pros	Cons
Great Out-of-Shield Game: Pac-Man can punish most moves on shield, as his Up-B is tied with Samus for the second fastest OOSOut of Shield option in the game. His other options are also really good. Impenetrable Wall: Pac-Man's Down-B (Fire Hydrant) literally builds a wall between him and his opponent, allowing him to freely charge his Neutral-B (Bonus Fruit). To complement this, he also has outstanding normals (his F-Air comes in mind) to box out approaching opponents. Phenomenal Ledgetrapping: Pac-Man's special moves can be used in conjunction with each other to prepare complex ledgetrap setups, most of which cover multiple ledge options at once and make it difficult for the opponent to get back onto the stage. Surprisingly High Damage: Pac-Man's combos packs a punch, especially when fruits (such as Galaxian) are on the table. Invalidates Spotdodges: Pac-Man's Grab is active for so long that it outright invalidates the use of spotdodges against him. Outstanding Disadvantage: Pac-Man has one of the best recoveries in the game, allowing him to recover (and stall) from pretty much anywhere on the stage without being predictable. He can also easily get out of juggles. Highly Versatile: Pac-Man has access to equally excellent and varied zoning and rushdown tools, giving him the ability to change the game's pace in a flash as he sees fit.	Reliant on Fruit: Pac-Man's core gameplan gets shut down the moment the opponent catches his fruit. Struggles to Approach: Ironically, Pac-Man struggles to deal with camping, as his approach options are rather limited and linear. To make things worse, most of his kill options requires him to be at close range. Struggles to Kill: Pac-Man suffers from a lack of kill confirms/setups, and thus has to rely on reads to close out stocks. Lacks Disjoints: As fantastic as they are, Pac-Man's attacks aren't disjointed, making boxing out sword characters (among others) harder than average. Double-Edged Specials: All of Pac-Man's special moves can be used against him in some way. Steep Learning Curve: Due to his unique neutral/zoning and plethora of setups, Pac-Man can be awkward to learn as a new player.
