Description

As electricity builds up inside its body, it becomes more aggressive. One theory is that the electricity buildup is actually causing stress.

Because so many Trainers like the way Pikachu looks, you don’t see this Pokémon very often.

If its electric pouches run empty, it raises its tail to gather electricity from the atmosphere.

If it stores too much electricity, its behavior turns aggressive. To avoid this, it occasionally discharges excess energy and calms itself down.

If the electrical sacks become excessively charged, RAICHU plants its tail in the ground and discharges. Scorched patches of ground will be found near this Pokémon’s nest.
