How does Gerttysburg change is Pickett is at Gettysburg on July 2?

So, watching Gettysburg, i was just up to the part where John Bell Hood begins his attack, and having watched the Confederate staff meeting before where Longstreet says he does not have Pickett, how much would this battle change, if at all, if Pickett was there with the army when the battle began???

Depends, when does Pickett arrive and where does Longstreet position Pickett?
 
Pickett's division was marching from way back in the rear. If the entire Army of Northern Virginia was in the line of battle for the Second Day of Gettysburg, well, that would require an entirely unrecognizable First Day, wouldn't it?
