Pokédex Entries

Red Blue

When several of these POKéMON gather, their electricity could build and cause lightning storms.

Yellow

It keeps its tail raised to monitor its surroundings. If you yank its tail, it will try to bite you.

Gold

This intelligent POKéMON roasts hard BERRIES with electricity to make them tender enough to eat.

Silver

It raises its tail to check its sur­ roundings. The tail is sometimes struck by light­ ning in this pose.

Crystal

When it is anger­ ed, it immediately discharges the energy stored in the pouches in its cheeks.

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.

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.

Emerald

It stores electricity in the electric sacs on its cheeks. When it releases pent-up energy in a burst, the electric power is equal to a lightning bolt.

Firered Y

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

Leafgreen

When several of these POKéMON gather, their electricity can build and cause lightning storms.

Diamond

It lives in forests with others. It stores electricity in the pouches on its cheeks.

Ultra Sun

Its nature is to store up electricity. Forests where nests of Pikachu live are dangerous, since the trees are so often struck by lightning.
