Pikachu

This article is filed under Characters.

Pikachu is a creature from the black lagoon Pokemon series who has the ability to emit electricity from its body, like a battery would. It evolves from Pichu and can evolve into Raichu.

In The Anime

Pikachu is Ash Ketchum's first (and favorite) Pokemon who is annoying beyond comprehension of the human mind. He refuses to climb into a Pokeball because he's such a rebel. It has tendencies to randomly electrocute various people with amperes that would usually be fatal, but it's an anime intended for young viewers so that's a no-go. Ash is so completely stupid NOT to let him evolve to Raichu. Raichu is far less annoying and can beat the shit out of Pikachu any day.

For some stupid reason, Team Rocket spends their lives attempting to pursue and capture Pikachu, especially Ash's Pikachu in particular, often in the form of cliche traps such as pits in the ground or even as far as giant robots. In the end of every episode, Pikachu is still at Ash's side and the cycle starts all over the next episode.

In The Games

Pikachu is #25 in the National Pokédex and is apparently so weak that Oak can catch it without battle. It evolves into a Raichu with a Thunder Stone.

• In "Pokemon Yellow", you can talk to it, and it will tell you how it feels about you. He probably hates you.
• In "Hey You, Pikachu!" you can swear at Pikachu and call him bad names to piss him off. Hilarious.
• In "Pokemon Snap" you can throw apples or gas balls at it and make it run away. What a coward.

Pikachu slaps itself for making child pornography.
