The nature of the treatment is unclear, but it appeared to include the use of an oxygen mask. The recovery was quick, and no follow-up treatment was necessary.

In the anime, several Pokémon have been shown to develop illnesses.

List of illnesses

Electrical overcharging

Pikachu's illness of electric overcharge.

This condition is known to affect Template:Type2 Pokémon, although Magnemite and its evolutions appear to be immune to it. This illness is caused by exposure to high levels of electromagnetic energy. Symptoms appear to vary, as shown by different species stricken with it. In Get the Show on the Road, Pikachu came down with this illness. It appeared quite lethargic when affected, whereas a wild Elekid from Reversing the Charges did not. It also appears that there are different levels of this illness, as the first time Pikachu got it, it only had flu-like symptoms; a different time, however, it got so severe there was a threat of Pikachu exploding from the overload. Dawn's Pachirisu gets an electric overcharge in Doc Brock!. Pachirisu got rid of it with an Oran Berry and attacking Team Rocket.

This condition is cured by discharging electricity, usually via moves, until the Pokémon's electricity level is normal.

Fever

Dawn's Pachirisu with a fever.

Known to affect Pokémon of different types, fevers have appeared frequently in the anime. Meowth developed a type of fever in The Problem with Paras. His was cured fairly quickly by a mixture of herbs, as well as pills taken with meals afterward. A more severe fever struck a Ralts in Do I Hear a Ralts?. It was treated by Ash and friends giving it food and keeping it cool until arriving at the local Pokémon Center for more intensive treatment. The nature of the treatment is unclear, but it appeared to include the use of an oxygen mask. The recovery was quick, and no follow-up treatment was necessary.

Both Meowth and Ralts became listless when affected, although it was more variable in Ralts.

Pokemonitis

Known to affect humans in the Pokémon world, it causes them to think and act like various Pokémon. It is curable by Drowzee's Dream Eater, in Hypno's Naptime
