  All other Pokémon's single-target electric-type moves are redirected to this Pokémon if it is an eligible target. Other Pokémon's Electric moves raise this Pokémon's Special Attack one stage, negating any other effect on it, and cannot miss it. If the move's intended target also has this ability, the move is not redirected.

Raichu

Japanese: ライチュウ

Raichu is an Electric-type Pokémon. It evolves from Pikachu when it gets a Thunder Stone. Raichu is the final evolution of Pichu.

In Alola, people can find a Raichu that is different from before. It is now an Electric-type and Psychic-type. The Raichu will evolve from Pikachu when you give it a Thunder Stone. The new form of the Raichu will happen no matter where the Pikachu came from originally.

Characteristics

Raichu is a Pokémon that walks on two legs. It looks like a mouse. It is dark orange with a white belly. Its ears are split, brown on the outside and yellow on the inside. They end in a curl. There is a yellow circle on each cheek. Raichu has a dark brown nose. Its arms and feet have brown fur at the end, and its feet have an orange pad in the center of the soles of the long feet. There are two stripes on its back. Its tail looks like a lightning bolt. Raichu’s body always gives off electricity, and it glows a little in the dark.

Raichu’s tail can gather electricity from the air. It can also be used to find electricity on the ground. This protects Raichu because it has high voltage power. Raichu can store 100,000 volts of electricity in its body.

Raichu’s ears stand up when its sacs are charged. It becomes aggressive when it stores too much electricity, so it releases this energy from its tails. Raichu is often found in forests and woodlands. Raichu is not often seen in the wild because people like the way it looks like Pikachu. Volt Tackle is a signature move of Raichu.

In Alola, Raichu is different. Its eyes are blue, and its ears are yellow but larger and thicker and are curved inward from the bottom side. Alolan Raichu has a white stripe on its back and a white circle on the back of its paw. The Pokémon uses its tail to ride on psychic energy, and it can fly in the air. It also stores energy in its cheeks.

People didn’t know about the origin of Alolan Raichu. Some people think it’s just because it has eaten a lot of sweets, but in reality, it evolves by eating a special kind of Alolan recipe. Moreover, climate change also played a role in its transformation.

Alolan Raichu is also called hodad. Raichu is the only Pokémon who can use Z-Move Stoked Sparksurfer.
