− | ==In the anime== |
||
− | [[File:ElectricShockShowdown.gif|thumb|left|Lt. Surge's Raichu against Ash's Pikachu.]] |
||
− | Raichu made its debut appearance in the episode ''[[IL014: Electric Shock Showdown|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', under the ownership of [[Lt. Surge]], the [[Gym Leader]] in [[Vermilion City]]. In this episode [[Ash's Pikachu]] is defeated in a one-on-one battle with [[Lt. Surge's Raichu]], which then leads to Surge commenting on how [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] could never defeat his Raichu because his [[Pikachu]] was too weak. |
||
− | |||
− | Ash and [[Pikachu]] both, refusing to go through with evolving [[Pikachu]] in order to increase its power, face off against Lt. Surge again, this time using speed rather than power. By tiring Raichu out, Pikachu defeats Raichu and wins the battle. |
||
− | |||
− | Another Raichu, under the ownership of a trainer named [[Sho]], was seen in ''[[Pika and Goliath!]]''. [[Sho's Raichu]] used [[Hyper Beam]] at point blank range on Ash's Pikachu causing it to be in critical condition. This episode was very similar to the previously mentioned ''Electric Shock Showdown'' episode. |
||
− | |||
− | Another Raichu, named "Sugar" was seen under the ownership of an elderly woman named [[Abigail]] in the episode ''[[Cooking up a Sweet Story]]''. |
||
− | |||
− | In the first episode of the Summer Camp for Pokemon episodes, Ash was given a Raichu to train and battle who was shy but warmed up to Ash but Ash had to return it after the battle.[[File:Pikachu_using_Aglity.png|thumb|Ash's Pikachu versus Lt. Surge's Raichu.]] |

Physiology
Raichu is a rodent-like Pokémon, similar to its previous evolution forms. Unlike Pichu or Pikachu, which both have yellow fur, Raichu has orange-brown fur. It has long ears and feet, but has stubby arms with no noticeable fingers. Additionally, its electrical sacs are yellow, unlike its previous form's red coloring. It has a white belly, the tips of its arms and toes are brown. The soles of its feet are tan-colored and the paw pads on the undersides are yellowish orange. Raichu also have a long, thin, black tail that ends in a large lightning bolt shape. Male Raichu have larger "lightning bolt tails" than females. They are also bigger than their previous evolved forms.
Special abilities
Raichu has the ability Static and the hidden ability Lightningrod. Static allows Raichu to paralyze its foe when making a physical move. Lightningrod allows Raichu to draw in all Electric-type attacks.
Evolution
Raichu is the evolved form of Pikachu, and the final evolutionary form of Pichu. Pikachu can evolve into Raichu by the use of a Thunder Stone.

Appearances
In the anime
Raichu made its debut appearance in the episode Electric Shock Showdown, under the ownership of Lt. Surge, the Gym Leader in Vermilion City. In this episode Ash's Pikachu is defeated in a one-on-one battle with Lt. Surge's Raichu, which then leads to Surge commenting on how Ash could never defeat his Raichu because his Pikachu was too weak.
Ash and Pikachu both, refusing to go through with evolving Pikachu in order to increase its power, face off against Lt. Surge again, this time using speed rather than power. By tiring Raichu out, Pikachu defeats Raichu and wins the battle.
Another Raichu, under the ownership of a trainer named Sho, was seen in Pika and Goliath!. Sho's Raichu used Hyper Beam at point blank range on Ash's Pikachu causing it to be in critical condition. This episode was very similar to the previously mentioned Electric Shock Showdown episode.
A different Raichu appeared in The Orange Islands in Stage Fight! under the ownership of one of the performers Kay. When Kay first got Raichu she got scared of being shocked when it discharged electricity when it hugged her as such Raichu got nervous around people. But because of Ash they eventually made up and became a proper team and Raichu started performing with the other show Pokémon.
Another Raichu, named "Sugar" was seen under the ownership of an elderly woman named Abigail in the episode Cooking up a Sweet Story.
In the first episode of the Summer Camp for Pokémon episodes, Ash was given a Raichu to train and battle who was shy but warmed up to Ash but Ash had to return it after the battle.

Trivia
- Pokédex entries say that Raichu can discharge up to 100,000 volts. The Pokémon Stadium entry says that it can only do 10,000 however.
- In PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond, Raichu appears in the Cove Town as one of the trainers. After Pikachu defeats him in battle, he becomes Pikachu's teacher.
- Raichu and its pre-evolved form Pikachu have a distinct size difference with Raichu being at least twice as large as Pikachu.
Origins
The name Raichu originates from the Japanese word rai, which means "thunder," and "chuu," a word referring to the squeak made by a mouse. Its name is also very similar to the Raiju, a lighting creature from Japanese mythology.
