Alrighty guys, so I've done a little perusing around the Falcon board and I can't seem to find any extended material on pivot grabs or retreating grabs. So I thought I'd just inform the uninformed on some useful techniques that I found (unfortunately on my own); quite some time back.
In an upcoming replay I'll be posting, I have a match with one of my friends (Fox), and the retreating grab is used a few times.
How to?: As you run from your opponent, dash away as soon as they make a running approach, (works much better on faster characters that will tail you) at the end of your dash, tap toward them and press Z. What it should look like is Falcon stopping his action, and turning around immediately to grab, which is by far one of the most helpful things to do for a defensive Falcon.
