Ash's Pikachu: Difference between revisions

In [[DP186]], Ash used Pikachu in his battle against Paul in [[Suzuran Conference]]. It was used against Paul's {{p|Aggron}}, where it put up a good fight and weakened Aggron before it was recalled in place of Infernape. Pikachu was also used in the continuation of Ash's battle against Paul in [[DP187]]. It battled against Paul's {{p|Froslass}} where he was seen having some trouble at first, but by the end, he was able to pull through and defeat Froslass with a powerful {{m|Volt Tackle}} attack. This gave Pikachu his first win against one of Paul's Pokémon and also gave Ash the lead in the battle. In [[DP188]], he battled Paul's Electivire. Ash tells Pikachu to use Volt Tackle. It hits Electivire but as Electivire had activated it's {{a|Motor Drive}} ability, the attack took no effect at all. It was soon defeated by Electivire's {{m|Brick Break}} attack. In [[DP189]], Pikachu was the last Pokémon chosen by Ash to battle [[Takuto]] in the semi-finals. Despite Ash losing five of his Pokémon, Pikachu tried its best to defeat Takuto's {{p|Latios}}. Pikachu used Quick Attack on Latios, but it misses. Pikachu then used Volt Tackle to attack Latios, however, Latios countered it with {{m|Giga Impact}} and hit Pikachu. Latios used Giga Impact again, and Pikachu tried to counter it with Iron Tail. But before Iron Tail hits, Giga Impact affects Pikachu first. Latios flew to the sky and came down, trying to use {{m|Luster Purge}}. Ash told Pikachu to get on Latios' back, so Pikachu dodged the attack and jumped on top of Latios. Pikachu used Thunderbolt twice on Latios, while they flew around. Latios then used {{m|Light Screen}}. Pikachu continued to use Thunderbolt thrice until it was shaken off. As Pikachu is about to land, Latios used Luster Purge. Pikachu used Volt Tackle and Iron Tail, taking against the force of the Luster Purge. However, it was tied with Latios as both fainted. As Ash's last Pokémon also fainted, Takuto was crowned the winner of their battle.
