Flavor Text

Red/Blue Leaf Green 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.

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


Gold This intelligent Pokémon roasts hard Berries with electricity to make them tender enough to eat.

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

Crystal When it is angered, 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.


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

Pearl If it loses crackling power from the electric pouches on its cheeks, it is being wary.
