Volt Tackle inflicts damage, and the user receives recoil damage equal to ⅓ of the damage done to the target.
Generation V
Volt Tackle now has a 10% chance of paralyzing the target.

Learnset
By breeding
From Pokémon Emerald onward, if either parent of a baby Pichu holds a Light Ball when the Egg is produced, the Pichu will know Volt Tackle when it hatches. However, Volt Tackle is not an Egg Move, and cannot be passed down by simply breeding with a parent that knows the move. The only way for Pichu to hatch knowing Volt Tackle is for one of the parents to hold a Light Ball.

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time, Darkness, and Sky, Pichu has a chance of learning Volt Tackle as an Egg Move by obtaining a Pichu Egg from a mission.
In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, Pikachu can learn Volt Tackle once Paradise reaches Perfect Rank.

A blue square indicates the user's position after performing the move.
Super Smash Bros. series
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U, Volt Tackle is Pikachu's Final Smash. When used, Pikachu will be enveloped by a blue ball of electricity. The ball does major damage and can even pass through platforms, though it is very hard to control. Despite it taking damage from Volt Tackle in the core series, Pikachu takes no damage from the move when used in the Super Smash Bros. series.
Trophy information
"Pikachu, transformed into a ball of light that can slam into foes. It can also fly to chase down those who try to jump out of range. Sparks get stronger when you press the attack button. However, its increased inertia makes midair movement tough. If you get carried away flying, the effect will end, and you'll destroy yourself. Be careful it doesn't happen to you."
