contact with it may cause paralysis.

Pichu stores electricity in the sacs on its cheeks but discharges it
inadvertently when agitated or excited. Being yet immature,
the Pokémon's handling of electricity is rather inept.

pichu

Possesses cheek sacs in which it stores electricity. This clever
forest-dweller roasts tough berries with an electric shock before
consuming them.

pikachu

It can discharge bursts of electricity exceeding 100,000 volts—
a single strike with that amount of power would incapacitate one
of the Copperajah of my homeland.

raichu

generation-ii

forest

A jolt of electricity crashes down on the target to
inflict damage. This may also leave the target
with paralysis.

thunder-shock

The user gazes at the target rather charmingly,
making it less wary. This harshly lowers the target’s
Attack stat.
