I have been really getting into SSBU again recently and I decided to swap mains from Sheik to Paluntena. I never really played the game much but recently I have been getting really into it. I love Paluntena as a character but I struggle to use her to her full potential due to my sheer inability to start an air combo. I was just looking for tips on how to get better at aerial combos, or more specifically how to start them. Thanks in advance!

I was recently experimenting with Pythagorean Triples, specifically creating a formula that could be used to make a Triple from just a hypotenuse.

I started by finding the relationship between square numbers, which can be put into the formulaic terms of n^2 = (n-1)^2 + 2n-1. If we simplify the right hand side, we get (n^2-2n +1) +2n-1= n^2.

I then realized that this could be put into the from of an a^2+b^2=c^2 where a^2 = 2n-1, b^2 = (n-1)^2, and c^2 = n^2. From here you square root all 3 terms to find that a^2 + b^2 = c^2 was the same as sqrt(2n-1) + n-1 = n, where n is the hypotenuse.

This means you can calculate any Pythagorean Triple from the infinite family in which the number you selected is the hypotenuse. This cannot calculate all Pythagorean triples, but it can calculate most.

In short, the formula is ( n, n-1, sqrt(2n-1) ), and I am wondering if it works.

Thanks in advance for any help.

EDIT: It cannot calculate most. I can calculate Triples from a specific family in which two sides differ by one
