Raichu made its appearance in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'' where it was responsible for brutally defeating many opponents, as the Pokémon Center started to get crowded. This happened before Ash entered the Vermilion City Gym. Later during Ash's arrival, Lt. Surge sent it out to him and {{ashfr}}. Lt. Surge laughed at {{Ash}} for not evolving Pikachu, thinking evolved Pokémon are always better. This infuriated him and made Pikachu, also infuriated, want to battle Raichu.

In the battle, both sides started off with ThunderShock but Raichu's turned out to be more powerful, which weakened Pikachu drastically. Raichu then easily defeated Pikachu with a combination of Mega Punch and Mega Kick.

Ash returned to the Gym for a rematch after Pikachu was healed. He ignored Lt. Surge's advice on evolving Pikachu into a Raichu. In the rematch, Raichu was able to hit Pikachu with Body Slam but Pikachu was able to use two new attacks, {{m|Agility}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}, which were both learned before the rematch, before being finished off. As Raichu evolved too fast, it never learned any speedy attacks. Pikachu took advantage of this by using his speedy attacks to confuse Raichu. Lt. Surge decided to cancel them by having Raichu use Thunderbolt on the field. However, Pikachu dodged it by using his tail. When Raichu was about to use Thunderbolt again, it ran out of electricity which gave Pikachu the upper hand. Pikachu finished Raichu off with his tail attack before Raichu made full contact with Take Down. As Ash eventually defeated Lt. Surge in a rematch, it proved to him that evolved Pokémon are not always better.

Raichu was seen again in a flashback in ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'' when Ash was recalling the fun times he had with Pikachu, and in another one in  ''[[EP073|Bad to the Bone]]'', where Raichu was defeated in a Gym battle by [[Otoshi]]'s {{p|Marowak}}.
