Alternate Forms

pikachu
Base
X

It raises its tail to check its surroundings. The tail is sometimes struck by lightning in this pose.

Y

It has small electric sacs on both its cheeks. If threatened, it looses electric charges from the sacs.

Omega Ruby

Whenever Pikachu comes across something new, it blasts it with a jolt of electricity. If you come across a blackened berry, it’s evidence that this Pokémon mistook the intensity of its charge.

Alpha Sapphire

This Pokémon has electricity-storing pouches on its cheeks. These appear to become electrically charged during the night while Pikachu sleeps. It occasionally discharges electricity when it is dozy after waking up.
