Why does this article seem to assume by default that the Pikachu used by Red in the games where he's an NPC is the one he received as a starter in Yellow? It could just as well be a Pikachu he caught himself. Especially considering that one of those games (HGSS) is a sequel to FRLG, where it's impossible to get Pikachu as a starter. And there is LGPE where Red has Pikachu yet it's implied that his starter was Bulbasaur (just like Blue and Green's starters were implied to be Charmander and Squirtle respectively). Not to mention that none of the official adaptations that featured Red as the main character made Pikachu his starter.

It could just as well be a Pikachu he caught himself. Especially considering that one of those games (HGSS) is a sequel to FRLG, where it's impossible to get Pikachu as a starter. Other games like BW2 used the FRLG/HGSS designs for Red and others, implying that they treat the remakes as the canon versions, as opposed to Yellow. And there is LGPE where Red has Pikachu yet it's implied that his starter was Bulbasaur (just like Blue and Green's starters were implied to be Charmander and Squirtle respectively). There is also the fact that none of the official adaptations that featured Red as the main character made Pikachu his starter -- they all had him catch it.
