Another part of catchup day, here we have Pikachu from ND...well yet another to add to your collection I suppose? Statwise 60 HP is average for a Basic, x2 Weakness to :fighting: is meh, no Resistance is common, and :colorless: to Retreat is cheap. Thundershock still deals its old standby of :lightning: for 10 and 50/50 chance at Paralysis, some things never change I guess lol. Tail Whap is pricey at :colorless::colorless: for 20. So yeah, with Raichu not being that good (then again, just about all :lightning: Pokemon not named a variant of Zekrom aren't that good), no real reason to play Pikachu here.

Modified - 1/10 - No real reason to use him or Raichu when you have monsters like Zekrom ready to go and readily available

Limited - 5/10 - Ok here, better with Raichu of course

Unlimited - 1/10 - No use here, weak and easy to KO and none of the Raichus out there are worth using. Not to mention there's even Pikachus with more HP out there I think...
