* Cristallo: Quando s'arrabbia, libera subito l'energia accumulata nelle tasche delle guance.
* RossoFuoco: Se spaventato, perde scariche elettriche dalle due sacche che ha sulle guance.
* VerdeFoglia: Quando vari Pokémon di questa specie si radunano, la loro energia puň causare forti tempeste.
* Rubino: Quando Pikachu incontra qualcosa che non conosce, lo colpisce con una scarica elettrica. Quando si vede una bacca annerita, č evidente che questo Pokémon ha emesso una scossa troppo forte.
* Zaffiro: Pikachu immagazzina l'elettricitŕ nelle guance. Pare che queste si ricarichino durante la notte quando dorme. Talvolta emette delle scariche elettriche al risveglio mentre č ancora assonnato.
* Smeraldo: Se Pikachu rilascia tutta in un colpo l'elettricitŕ che ha immagazzinato nelle sacche sulle guance, si sprigionano delle vere e proprie saette.
* Diamante: Vive nelle foreste insieme agli altri. Immagazzina elettricitŕ nelle sacche sulle guance.
* Perla: Se l'elettricitŕ contenuta nelle sacche sulle sue guance scoppietta, significa che č diffidente.

Pikachu nell'Anime
Pikachu č lo starter dell'allenatore Ash Ketchum. Compare per la prima volta nell'episodio L'inizio di una grande avventura (Pokémon! I Choose You!) ed č sempre presente nel corso della serie animata. Il Pokémon rifiuta prima di entrare nella Poké Ball di Ash e successivamente, nel quattordicesimo episodio Un Incontro da Elettroshock (Electric Shock Showdown), decide di non evolversi in Raichu. Anche l'allenatore Richie possiede un Pikachu, soprannominato Sparky, riconoscibile dal caratteristico ciuffo sulla fronte.
Sia nella versione giapponese che in quelle in inglese e in italiano la voce del Pikachu di Ash č quella della doppiatrice Ikue Ōtani.
Popolaritŕ PikachuPikachu si č guadagnato la fama di Pokémon piů popolare della serie e viene spesso considerato il simbolo dei Pokémon, analogamente a quanto si potrebbe dire di Topolino per la Banda Disney o di Mario per la Nintendo. Questa fama deriva dal fatto che č diventato la "spalla" di Ash Ketchum, personaggio principale dell'anime, e, successivamente, protagonista del videogioco Pokémon Giallo (il cui nome completo in inglese č Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition), pubblicato dopo il successo della serie animata.
Il personaggio di Pikachu č spesso parodiato, come avviene nel cartone animato Drawn Together in cui Ling-Ling rappresenta lo stereotipo dei giapponesi e ha le sembianze del Pokémon.
Pikachu from Bulbapedia
http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.netPikachu (Japanese: ピカチュウ Pikachu) is an Electric-type Pokémon.
It evolves from Pichu by happiness, and evolves into Raichu when exposed to a Thunderstone.
Pikachu is popularly known as the mascot of the Pokémon franchise.
It is the version mascot of Pokémon Yellow, and the only starter Pokémon in that game.
Biology Pikachu
Physiology
A Pikachu is a short, chubby, ground-dwelling rodent notable for its Electric abilities. Pikachu have short, yellow fur with brown stripes on the back, black-tipped ears, along with an unusually shaped tail, resembling a lightning bolt. Besides its evolution and pre-evolution, it may be related to Plusle, Minun and Pachirisu, due to notable physical similarities.
Pikachu are known to have acute senses of hearing, thanks to their large ears. Most domestic Pikachu are very intelligent, understanding and interpreting human speech at levels far surpassing those of any pet dog.
In Pika and Goliath!, when Ash's Pikachu was injured, it was shown to have a heart rate of 156.
Gender differences
A female Pikachu has a small "dent" at the end of its tail, causing it to resemble a heart.
Special abilities
Exclusive to the Pikachu's subspecies is the ability to release electric discharges of varying intensity, at will, through electric sacs in its cheeks. This electric energy can be manipulated into a variety of techniques which are mostly used in battle but which can be used to roast berries as well.
As Pikachu build up energy in their electricity glands, it often needs to discharge, as to not result in a short, or worse, which can lead to physical Paralysis, or in severe cases death. Pikachu release the built-up energy through their tail, which acts as a grounding rod, to safely remove unneeded energy. A sure sign to tell if a location is inhabited by Pikachu is to look for patches of burnt grass, which is the result of the discharge. Through an inability to release a buildup of electricity, a Pikachu may develop a rare condition similar to the human flu. This illness is most often caused by strong nearby electro-magnetic forces, which severely impact the electric glands. If a Pikachu is introduced to a magnet, it will be attracted towards its cheeks, and display other common attributes of magnetism.
Pikachu and its evolution family, Pichu and Raichu, are the only known Pokémon that can learn Volt Tackle. In a few rare cases, Pikachu can learn to manipulate Water and, with the help of a surfboard, perform the move Surf. Other rare cases show that Pikachu can also learn, with the use of balloons, to perform the move Fly, removing its weakness to Ground.
Behavior
In the wild, Pikachu often travel in packs, and are rarely territorial. However, when threatened, a group can generate an intense electrical offensive, and the electro-magnetic forces exerted by the resulting field can even produce a short lived, localized thunderstorm. Pikachu can be harmful pests, eating and sometimes destroying telephone poles, wires, and other electronic equipment.
Despite this, it is a popular pet, and relatively easy to maintain, with little exercise necessary for its well being. However, it is important to discharge the electricity in its cheeks periodically.
As many know, pulling on a Pikachu's tail will result in a severe shock to the offender. Another defense of Pikachu's is the use of its nasty Bite which has been known to leave quite a mark.
Habitat
They are found mostly in forests, but possibly because of their attraction to their electricity or simply because they are not afraid of people, Pikachu commonly show up in civilized areas. They may even enter houses, presumably attracted by the electrical output generated by the dwellers' appliances. Pikachu are native only to the Kanto region, although they have been introduced to many other regions.
Diet
Living in wooded areas, Pikachu often are found foraging for berries. Instead of climbing trees, they use small electrical shocks to release the berries from the tree, roasting them at the same time.
As pets, they can be fed a variety of processed food, available at many pet stores. Alternatively, like most Pokémon, Pikachu are tolerant to most "human" foods, and sometimes enjoy them more than the more nutritional
food designed for their biology. An example of this is the fact that Ash's Pikachu has been known to have a fondness of ketchup.
Anime Pikachu from Bulbapedia
Major appearances
A Pikachu also had a part in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!. He was kidnapped by a Skarmory and Team Go-Getters set out to rescue him as their first mission. Pikachu provided them with some items in the battle.
Ash's Pikachu
Ash Ketchum has a Pikachu that he obtained from Professor Oak in Pokémon - I Choose You!, the first episode of the Pokémon anime series. It has appeared in every non-special episode since. Pikachu has also appeared in every Pokémon movie.
Ash's Pikachu with other wild Pikachu
Ash was given the opportunity to release Pikachu in Pikachu's Goodbye, though Pikachu chose to stay with him. This episode also featured many other wild Pikachu.
A Pikachu named Sugar belonging to the owners of a restaurant went missing prior to Cooking up a Sweet Story!, and Ash's Pikachu had to fill in for it so that its owner would have the confidence to win a cooking competition. At the end of the episode, the Pikachu returns, however, it has evolved into a Raichu.
Ash's and Ritchie's Pikachu
Ritchie's Pikachu
Ritchie also has a Pikachu nicknamed Sparky, who debuted in A Friend In Deed. Sparky, unlike most Pikachu, has a tuft of fur on the top of its head.
Ashachu
Ash gets turned into a Pikachu in Hocus Pokémon by a Pokémon magician named Lily. He reverts to his human form at the beginning of the next episode.
Other
Many Pikachu appeared in Pokémon Emergency! to help Ash's Pikachu defeat Team Rocket's Jessie, James, and Meowth to send them blasting off for the first time.
Another Pikachu nicknamed Puka was owned by a man named Victor on Seafoam Island in The Pi-Kahuna. This blue-eyed Pikachu had the ability to sense tidal waves approaching.
A Pikachu has also been owned by Luana's son, Travis. Luana mistook Ash for Travis when she saw Pikachu on Ash's shoulder.
Mewtwo's cloned Pikachu with different ear marks
In Lights, Camerupt, Action, Elijah used a Pikachu in one of his movies. This Pikachu helped Plusle and Minun on their mission to rescue Princess Kirlia from the evil Exploud.
In Mewtwo Strikes Back, Mewtwo clones Ash's Pikachu. This Pikachu can be told apart from Ash's due to spikes on the black marks at the tips of its ears. It is also comparatively more aggressive than Ash's Pikachu and slurs its speech, defects possibly caused by Ash tampering with Mewtwo's cloning machine during the cloning process.
Minor appearances
Aside from Ash's Pikachu, Pokémon of this species, wild and Trainers' alike, are rarely seen in the anime. This is most likely due to the fact that Ash's Pikachu is seen in every episode.
James used a Pikachu in the Pokémon League Entrance Exam in The Ultimate Test, but the Pikachu was defeated by the instructor's Graveler. James, after interfering with a battle Ash was having with the instructor, later tried to steal this Pikachu.
A Pikachu belonging to an unnamed Aura Guardian appeared in a flashback in The Keystone Pops!.
In the mangaElectric Tale of Pikachu prominently features a Pikachu.
A Pikachu is one of the main characters in Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure.
A more mouse-like Pikachu that communicates through pantomime is one of Isamu Akai's Pokémon in Pocket Monsters.
Satoshi has a Pikachu as one of the members of his team in Pokémon Zensho. It later evolves into a Raichu.
Shū's first Pokémon was a Pikachu he found abandoned in the forest in Pokémon Get da ze!.
Ash's Pikachu was the main character in the short-lived Pokémon Newspaper Strip.
A story called "Akari and Pikachu's Birthday" is featured in the final volume of How I Became a Pokémon Card.
In Golden Boys, Gold was in possession of a Pikachu, which ended up being Eusine's.
A Pikachu makes a cameo in Pokémon Battle Frontier during one of the battles. Also, a photo album owned by Anabel has a Pikachu on the cover.
Pokemon Special
Pokédex entry: When several of these Pokémon gather, their electricity could build up and cause lightning storms. Forest dwellers, they are few in number and exceptionally rare. The pouches in their cheeks discharge electricity at their opponents. The Pikachu are believed to be highly intelligent.
Both Red and Yellow have Pika and Chu Chu, respectively. Pika often used to shock Red repeatedly. However, Pika becomes one of Red's most valued Pokémon.
Pikachu debuted in its own round in the Red, Green & Blue chapter, Wanted: Pikachu!. Here, Pika is stealing all the crops in a town. The townsfolk are chasing it around, but end up getting shocked by it. Red arrives and captures it, ending the chaos.
In the ninth Volume, Yellow is seen to have a new addition to her team: a Pikachu she had found injured in the Viridian Forest and nursed back to health. When Pika is left behind by Red on his trip to Mt. Silver, Pika joins Yellow and Chuchu on their trip to Johto.
Pika and Chuchu share a loving relationship, one that is so strong that even Jasmine noticed, prompting her to hand Yellow a slip with the Pokémon Daycare's address on it. In Volume 13, after Yellow and Wilton are brought to the Daycare after being shipwrecked, Yellow finds that Pika and Chuchu now have an egg shortly after they were "put together". The egg eventually hatches into Gold's Pichu.
Wild Pikachu also appeared in the RS and DP sagas.
TCG Card Games Pokemon Pikachu
Main article: Pikachu (TCG)
In the TCG, Pikachu somehow manages to find its way into many of the expansions, causing there to be at least 30 known Pokémon cards featuring Pikachu. There are also various Trainer cards with Pikachu in the card's artwork too, including the very sought-after tournament promos such as No.1 Trainer.
The first Pikachu that appeared in the TCG was Pikachu in the Base Set (which was reprinted in Base Set 2 and in POP Series 2 with different artwork). It was followed in the next set by another Pikachu (which was also reprinted in the Legendary Collection). The third Pikachu card released was the first-ever English promo card, Pikachu. The original Base Set Pikachu was also released as a special promotional card at E3.
In the early days of the TCG, several notable errors were made regarding the Pikachu cards. The Base Set Pikachu was released with altered artwork at first, depicting it with red cheeks, instead of the original yellow. While this matched Ken Sugimori's artwork, the yellow color on its cheeks was intentional by the artist, who depicted Pikachu using ThunderShock. This error appeared in both the E3 promotional version and the normal Base Set release. A second error was made in the production of Jungle set booster packs, which, instead of the Jungle set's Pikachu, contained, at times, first edition versions of the Pikachu that was released as a promo card.

Thunder Jolt (Japanese: でんげき Electric Attack) is Pikachu's Standard Special Move in all three Smash Bros. games. When used, Pikachu will release a small, blue bolt that slowly jumps across the platform. It can also turn around at some corners.
When used in midair, Pikachu will instead make a white ball that will travel in a downward diagonal line until it reaches a platform. In Brawl, there is a purple sphere around the white ball.

Trivia
* Pikachu's tail appears to be backwards in its Generation II back sprites, with the end of the tail pointing upwards instead of behind it.
o As well as this, the tail is spiked in Generation I, but straight-edged from Generation II onwards.
+ Also, in Red and Blue, Pikachu's tail looks similar to Raichu's, having round, thin, brown bottom half, and the top half is thunder bolt shaped.
* The "secret" move for Pikachu's evolution line, Volt Tackle, is actually based off of (and in the Japanese version, named after) Pulseman's signature move, Volteccer. To get this move, a Pichu must be bred from a parent Pikachu or Raichu holding a Light Ball, though this can only happen in Pokémon Emerald, Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
o A Pikachu knowing Surf and Volt Tackle can be obtained from Pokémon Battle Revolution by defeating Stargazer Colosseum for the first time.
o A Surfing Pikachu can also be won in Pokémon Stadium. Players must beat Prime Cup Master Ball R-2 using a team containing a Pikachu from the player's game pak. The Pikachu must be used in every battle, and no continues may be used. After successfully winning, the Pikachu will optionally be allowed to learn Surf.
o All of Lt. Surge's Pikachu and Raichu in Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon Stadium 2 knows Surf.
* Pikachu is the smallest and lightest version mascot, likely owing to the fact that it is not fully evolved nor legendary, unlike the rest.
* In the games, Pikachu is the first Pokémon to have its cry changed -- to that of its anime counterpart. This only happened in Pokémon Yellow. Junichi Masuda details the modification of Ikue Ohtani's voice to a sound capable of being made by the low-tech Game Boy in his Director's Column. In some parts of the game, though, Pikachu's original cry was used.
* Pikachu assumes a pose that is identical to the pose of the Pikachu on the box art of Yellow during its battle animation in Diamond and Pearl.
* Pikachu is in all six regional Pokédexes, though it is only known to be native to Kanto. It is imported from Kanto to Hoenn's Safari Zone and Mr. Backlot's house in Sinnoh.
* Pikachu in Pokémon Yellow was the first Pokémon to naturally learn a move taught by a Gym Leader's TM (Lt. Surge's TM24 (Thunderbolt)) in its introductory generation. It was the only Pokémon able to do this until Generation III.
* Pikachu is the first Electric-type Pokémon in National Pokédex order.
* Pikachu is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect foreign Pokédex entries for in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
* Pikachu and Raichu share the same species name with Rattata, Raticate, Sandshrew, and Sandslash. They are all known as Mouse Pokémon, though Rattata and Raticate have also been called the Rat Pokémon.
* On Red's final team in Mt. Silver at the end of the Generation II games, Pikachu was once the highest leveled Pokémon to be faced in any Pokémon game, excluding the Stadium/Colosseum/Battle Revolution series and the Battle Tower/Battle Frontier, at level 81. This places it one level higher than the wild Arceus that appears at the Hall of Origin. However, since the release of Pokémon Platinum, Pearl's final party includes several members that are higher leveled than Red's Pikachu.
* Pikachu was not the original Pokémon mascot. It was supposed to be Clefairy, but this was changed because of the popularity of Ash's Pikachu.
* Pikachu is the first Pokémon in the National Dex listing to have a Baby relative.
* Pikachu is the only Pokémon included in the original Pokémon Stadium that was capable of evolving further when the game was released. Strangely, Raichu was excluded from said game.
* Pikachu is the only starter Pokémon which cannot be evolved in the game that it is the starter for; it is also the only starter who has already evolved when it is received (though Pichu did not yet exist).
o Pikachu is also the only main series starter Pokémon that does not have a 7:1 male to female gender ratio (although gender did not yet exist either).
* In 2008, Japanese researchers discovered a new protein which helps carry electrical impulses from the eyes to the brain and named it Pikachurin. They based themselves on Pikachu for the choice of the name because they noticed that both Pikachu and the protein have amazing speed and agility.
* In Super Smash Bros. Melee and Brawl, Pikachu's side B move is Skull Bash. Pikachu has not legally been able to have this move since Generation II, and even then, only if it was traded from Generation I.
* Pikachu is the first Pokémon in National Dex to evolve under a method other than leveling up.
* Pikachu has appeared in every non-special episode. Pikachu has also appeared in every Pokémon movie.
* Pikachu's body has grown slightly longer and leaner in each succeeding generation of the main series.
* While holding Light Ball Pikachu can be the Electric-type Pokémon with the Highest Attack also can be the Electric-type Pokémon with the highest Special Attack
Avere Pikachu con Locomovolt - How to have a Pikachu with Locomovolt
Per avere Pikachu con locomocovolt bisogna andare in un luogo dove si trovano molti pikachu (per esempio io in smeraldo sono andato nella zona safari) e andate lŕ.
Vi consiglio il luogo dove sono andato io xkč se ne trovano tanti e nn bisogna pagare + di tanto le ball.
Catturate e Catturate molti Pikachu e molti nn č per dire io infatti ho riempito ben due box con pikachu, tornate al box e osservate gli strumenti (se ce ne sono) tenuti dai pikachu: se siete stati fortunati 1 o magari 2 (come č successo a me) tengono un certo strumento chiamato elettropalla.
A quel punto bisogna mettere un Pikachu femmina con elettropalla alla pensione(nn necessariamente quello ke c'č l'aveva quando avete trovato) insieme ad un altro Pikachu maschio.
Dall'uovo uscirŕ un Pichu con locomovolt!!!!!!

In DP, Light Ball doubles Pikachu's Attack as well as its Special Attack, making a physical set viable on him. This particular Pikachu is NOT walled by the likes of Blissey and Snorlax; in fact, he does a significant number against the two with Brick Break. Volt Tackle is made even more potent by the fact that Pikachu has a slightly higher Attack than Special Attack, but the recoil along with Substitute could kill him very quickly considering his meager HP, even without his opponent's help.

This set gives good coverage against most big threats, including Rhyperior, Swampert, Garchomp, and Tyranitar, not to mention numerous other Water-types. Blissey and Snorlax wall it too easily, though, and hence the mixed set tends to be better.

6 Def / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
This set is probably the easiest to set up for a sweep. If you're ballsy with your prediction, you can switch Pikachu in on a setup move and then Encore it, rendering the opponent defenseless and leaving you free to Substitute. Then you get a free turn to cause electric mayhem.
Other Options
The reason no Nasty Plot set is listed above is that Pikachu is like a UU Deoxys-A. It doesn't have time to set up and attack. It needs to get started attacking right away, or else it's going to go down on the next hit. Encore and Substitute are the two exceptions that can keep Pikachu alive and shocking.
Surf sounds really cool, and with the 20th Anniversary Nintendo Power event that was held back on Sept. 13, 2008 we are no longer limited to legitimate crappy Hardy natured Surfing Pikachus from Pokémon Battle Revolution. Grass Knot is more powerful against the likes of Tyranitar and Rhyperior anyway. However, Surf hits the likes of Camerupt and Steelix much harder, but those Pokemon are uncommon.
Focus Punch can be an excellent option over Brick Break on the physical set. If Pikachu gets a Sub up on the switch, it can OHKO an incoming Blissey/Snorlax.
You might be contemplating an Adamant/Modest nature for the extra attack power. Don’t. Pikachu needs all the Speed it can get, especially when that extra Speed can help it outspeed other UU Pokemon in the base 90 to 100 Speed brackets, containing some of the biggest threats available.
Quick Attack or Fake Out can stop things like Reversal/Flail users.
EVs
Pikachu should ALWAYS max Special Attack and Speed on a special set. The reason that the remaining 6 EVs were put into Defense instead of HP is because with those 6 EVs in HP, Pikachu's HP total becomes 212, which is divisible by four. This means Pikachu will only be able to Substitute three times instead of four. This is assuming that Pikachu has a 31 HP IV, but chances are your Pikachu—if it's in-game—doesn't have it. You will need to calculate your Pikachu's HP and then determine whether it should have those 6 EVs in HP or not. Ideally, Pikachu should have an odd-numbered HP—this also rounds down damage from Stealth Rock or Spikes.
Opinion
If you’re a trainer with some serious balls, Pikachu is the rat for you. He can be hard to switch into battle carefully, but the payoff can be huge. A Pikachu sweep is amazing to behold.
Counters
Blissey and Snorlax can take any hit a purely special Pikachu can dish out, although Snorlax will eventually fall with Spikes support. Actually, the Pikachu trainer should be watching out for things like Weavile and Dugtrio, who will make sure Pikachu doesn’t survive to 'bolt again. The smart Pikachu trainer should always try to keep a Substitute up as a safeguard against this.
