==Biography==
'''Lt. Surge's Raichu''' is Surge's only known Pokemon in the anime. Like Surge, Raichu was arrogant and very sure of its own strength, considering it to be [[Ash's Pikachu]] superior rival simply because it was its evolved form. During their first battle, Raichu creamed Pikachu effortlessly. However during their second battle, Raichu was overwhelmed by Pikachu's superior speed; because it had evolved so quickly it never learned [[Quick Attack]] or [[Agility]], which were two of the moves Pikachu used to dodge and attack Raichu. After its defeat, Raichu grew to respect Pikachu.

Biography

Pokémon the Series: The Beginning

TB014 12

Raichu out of power.

Much like its trainer, Lt. Surge, Raichu was arrogant and very sure of its own strength, considering itself superior to Ash's Pikachu, simply because it was its evolved form. During their first battle, Raichu electrocuted Pikachu with Thunder Shock. Pikachu tried to retaliate, but was hit by Raichu's Mega Punch and Mega Kick and also got defeated by Thunder Shock. However, during their second battle, Raichu hit Pikachu with its tail, followed by Body Slam. Just as Raichu was about to Body Slam Pikachu a second time and end the match, Pikachu dodged it and overwhelmed Raichu, with his superior speed; because it evolved too fast, Raichu never learned Quick Attack or Agility, which were two of the moves Pikachu used to dodge and attack Raichu. Raichu tried using Thunderbolt, which crashed all the windows. Pikachu dodged the move, by standing on its tail. Since Raichu used up all its electricity, it was unable to intercept Pikachu's Quick Attack with Take Down. However, the latter was quicker and overpowered the former. With an electrified tail attack, Pikachu defeated Raichu. After being defeated, Raichu started to respect Pikachu.[1]

While running away from his Pikachu, to have it stay with the other Pikachu and be happy with others of its kin, Ash recalled how Pikachu fought against Surge's Raichu.[2]

Both Ash and Otoshi, while speaking about Gym Badges, recalled how their Pikachu and Marowak battled Lt. Surge's Raichu.[3]
