Pokemon of the day...

Pikachu

Reasons Why?

Pikachu is an Electric type Pokemon. In the anime Ash Ketchum has a Pikachu that he obtained from Professor Oak in Pokémon - I Choose You!, the first episode of the Pokémon anime series. He is the signature Pokémon of the anime series who has appeared in every non-special episode and every Pokémon movie since. Ash's Pikachu does not like being in his Pokeball. Ash was given the opportunity to release Pikachu in Pikachu's Goodbye, as Pikachu seemed very happy with the other Pikachu. Even though he did attempt to, the bond between the two was too strong, so Pikachu chose to stay with him. This episode also featured many other wild Pikachu. Ritchie also has a Pikachu nicknamed Sparky, who debuted in A Friend In Deed. Sparky, unlike most Pikachu, has a tuft of fur on the top of its head. In Mewtwo Strikes Back, Mewtwo clones Ash's Pikachu. This Pikachu can be told apart from Ash's due to spikes on the black marks at the tips of its ears. It is also comparatively more aggressive than Ash's Pikachu and slurs its speech, defects possibly caused by Ash tampering with Mewtwo's cloning machine during the cloning process. In the game Pikachu is a very weak Pokemon and has very low stats but to make up for this it has exceptional speed. Pikachu is also able to learn a lager variety of moves. It can also learn the HM moves Fly and Surf via Pokemon events. Some of the moves Pikachu is able to learn are Thunder, Iron Tail and Signal Beam.

Dreamworld Ability!

Piakachu's dreamworld ability is ''Lightningrod''. ''Lightningrod'' forces all single-target Electric-type moves - used by any other Pokemon on the field - to target this Pokemon, and with 100% accuracy. This includes the status move Thunder Wave. The ability is most useful in double/triple battles. When hit by the move, it deals no damage to the ability-bearer but raises its Special Attack by one stage. Stats can be raised to a maximum of +6 stages each. ''Lightningrod'' will activate for an Electric-type Hidden Power, but not Electric-type Judgment. The ability is overridden by other Pokemon becoming the center of attention from the moves Follow Me or Rage Powder. In Generations 3-4, Lightningrod did not increase Special Attack nor give immunity to Electric-type attacks. It also did not activate for Hidden Power. This is an amazing ability for Pikachu to have as it is unaffected by Electric type moves and it's Special Attack raises every time it is attacked by an electric type move. Pikachu's other ability is ''Static'' If a Pokemon with ''Static'' is hit by a move making contact, there is a 30% chance the foe will become paralyzed. ''Static'' also has an outside effect. If a Pokemon with ''Static'' is leading the party Pokemon, it is 50% more likely that a wild Pokemon encountered will be Electric type. This ability like the first could change the whole tide of the battle in your favor as paralysis is in my opinion the worst effect of a move as your speed lowers plus you may not be able to attack.

Most Powerful move

Most powerful move : Thunder
Power : 120
PP : 10
Accuracy : 70 percent

Thunder deals damage and has a 30% chance of paralyzing the target. Pokemon with the ability Limber cannot be paralyzed. If used during rain, its accuracy rises to 100%. Conversely, if used during intense sunlight, its accuracy drops to 50%. Thunder can hit Pokemon using Fly and Bounce, the latter dealing double damage. In Diamond/Pearl only, Thunder has a 30% chance of breaking through Protect or Detect during rain. In Generation 1, the chance of paralysis was 10%. This is an amazing move however like I have always said with a move this powerful there is a problem. The problem with this move is the accuracy and the PP as they are both very low and because of this this move isn't as good as it could be. But when it comes to PP we all know we can increase this using a PP up. Overall I would rather use Thunderbolt as it is also very strong and a hundred percent accurate and has very high PP. Pikachu is able to learn thunderbolt very early on in the games. (To be honest it is in the first move set).
