Pokédex Description

: It is not yet skilled at storing electricity. It may send out a jolt if amused or startled.
: Despite its small size, it can zap even adult humans. However, if it does so, it also surprises itself.
: It is unskilled at storing electric power. Any kind of shock causes it to discharge energy spontaneously.

: PICHU charges itself with electricity more easily on days with thunderclouds or when the air is very dry. You can hear the crackling of static electricity coming off this POKéMON.
: When PICHU plays with others, it may short out electricity with another PICHU, creating a shower of sparks. In that event, this POKéMON will begin crying, startled by the flash of sparks.
: It is still inept at retaining electricity. When it is startled, it discharges power accidentally. It gets better at holding power as it grows older.
: Despite its small size, it can zap even adult humans. However, if it does so, it also surprises itself.
: It is not yet skilled at storing electricity. It may send out a jolt if amused or startled.
