 '''Pikachu's Beach''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ピカチュウのサマービーチ}}''' ''Pikachu's Summer Beach'') is a minigame exclusive to {{game|Yellow}}. It is played at '''Summer Beach House''' (Japanese: '''{{j|うみのいえ}}''' ''Sea House'') on {{rt|19|Kanto}}, where the '''Surfin' Dude''' (Japanese: '''{{j|なみのりオヤジ}}''' ''Surfing Old Man'') lives. The {{pkmn|anime}} episode ''[[EP067|The Pi-Kahuna]]'' features this minigame.
-In the original game on the [[Game Boy]], playing requires a [[Surfing Pikachu|Pikachu that knows Surf]] in the party; in the [[Virtual Console]] game, it requires {{ga|Red's Pikachu|the first partner Pikachu}} (matching the player's [[Trainer ID number]] and name) in the party. The only legitimate ways to obtain a Pikachu that knows Surf in Yellow are through [[Pokémon Stadium]] or an [[List of event Pokémon with in-game effects#Pikachu|event distribution]].

 ==Gameplay==
-The goal of the minigame is to score as many points as possible. The player controls {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} using the [[Game Boy]]'s Control Pad. As Pikachu is launched over a wave, the left and right buttons can be pressed to cause Pikachu to flip. Bonus "rad" points may be granted for landing safely.

-If the game is played on a [[Super Game Boy]] or [[Game Boy Color]], {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}}'s cheeks appear blue due to the limited color palette of these consoles. In the Japanese Yellow, Game Boy Color mode only applies a yellow and red palette to the graphics in a similar fashion to the other [[Generation I]] games, whereas the localizations use palettes with more saturated colors than those of Super Game Boy mode. As a result, Pikachu's cheeks are depicted properly in the Game Boy Color mode of the Japanese version.
