In link battles, the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|first partner Pikachu}}'s [[cry]] is not consistent between the two games. In its original game, Pikachu says its own name, while it utters an electronic noise instead in the foe's game.
In link battles, the partner {{OBP|Pikachu|Yellow}}'s [[cry]] is not consistent between the two games. In its original game, Pikachu says its own name, while it utters an electronic noise instead in the other player's game.


This is a result of Pikachu being treated as a regular Pokémon in the foe's game, instead of having its own cry. This glitch occurs even if both players are playing Pokémon Yellow.

When a player switches a non-fainted Pokémon for another, the Pokémon who left is seen quickly shrinking as if returning to the Poké Ball. However, at the same time, from the point of view of the opponent, this Pokémon is seen quickly moving away horizontally instead of shrinking.

As an exception, this does not apply to the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|first partner Pikachu}} in Pokémon Yellow. It enters all battles by quickly moving horizontally into the screen, and leaves them by quickly moving away, referencing the fact that it is [[walking Pokémon|not kept in a Poké Ball]]. Therefore, the first partner Pikachu leaves battles using a consistent animation from the point of view of both players in a link battle.

That being said, the first partner Pikachu has a different graphical quirk when entering link battles instead of leaving them: see [[#Pikachu entering link battles|below]].

In the first battle against the rival {{ga|Blue}}, the fact that the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|first partner Pikachu}} was originally sent from a [[Poké Ball]] is ignored.

As usual, the first partner Pikachu enters all battles in the game by quickly moving horizontally, which references the fact that it is a [[walking Pokémon]], unlike other Pokémon who are sent from their Poké Balls. However, in the first battle, Pikachu enters the battle the same way despite the fact that it was sent from a Poké Ball at this point in the game.
