→Biology: Every Pokemon with forms has them mentioned, at least briefly, in its Biology section, except Pichu, Pikachu, and Greninja. Without this, there's no easy wikilink from these species pages to the form differences page. Fixing this oversight.

Pikachu is able to release electric discharges of varying intensity. Pikachu has [[EP030|been known]] to build up energy in its glands, and will need to discharge to avoid complications. It is also able to release energy through its tail, which acts as a grounding rod, as well as recharging fellow Pikachu with electric shocks. Pikachu can also electrify itself to use its [[signature move]] {{m|Volt Tackle}}. When threatened, it looses electric charges from its sacs, and a group can build and cause lightning storms. It is found mostly in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests}}, where a sure sign that Pikachu inhabits a location is patches of burnt grass. | Pikachu is able to release electric discharges of varying intensity.

Pikachu has two [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Pikachu|alternate forms]]: one, the [[Cosplay Pikachu]], appeared in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. It is always female, has a black heart-shaped spot at the end of its tail, and can be dressed in any of five outfits corresponding to the five [[Contest conditions]]. The other form is {{DL|Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu in a cap}}, which debuted as an event-exclusive Pokémon in {{g|Sun and Moon}}. It is always male and has six variants, each wearing one of {{Ash}}'s [[Ash's hat|hats]] from the anime. In addition to these two forms, many other [[Pikachu variants]] have appeared in various media. | |||
