Ash's Pikachu is | [[File:PikachuMMovieRandomPack12.jpg|thumb|200px|right|[[Pikachu M (Movie Random Pack 12)|Pikachu]] {{SP|M}}, the first card directly focusing on Pikachu.]] | ||
Ash's Pikachu, as the main Pokémon character of the longest running Pokémon animation, has received multiple dedicated cards in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. Usually, they are released alongside [[Pokémon movie]]s. Before any of those, however, was the [[jumbo card|jumbo]] {{TCG|Unnumbered Promotional cards|promo card}} [[Mewtwo Strikes Back (CoroCoro promo)|Mewtwo Strikes Back]], which focuses on Mewtwo but includes Pikachu in the background. It was released to coincide with the movie the card is named after, ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. The first card centering on Pikachu was another such jumbo promo card, [[Pichu and Pikachu (CoroCoro promo)|Pichu and Pikachu]]. It showed Pikachu teamed up with the [[Pichu Brothers]], and was a tie in to ''[[PK07|Pikachu and Pichu]]'', one of the [[Pikachu short]]s. | |||
The [[Pokemon Trading Card Game#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]] introduced the first cards at normal size featuring Pikachu, as well as the first cards where Pikachu is the sole focus. They are [[Pikachu M (Movie Random Pack 12)|Pikachu]] {{SP|M}} and its {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X|Level Up}} [[Pikachu M LV.X (DPt-P Promo 43)|Pikachu]] {{SP|M}} [[Pikachu M LV.X (DPt-P Promo 43)|LV.X]]. These are [[Pokémon M]], a group of [[Pokémon SP]] based on the Pokémon seen in Pokémon movies which were released in the {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}} to promote ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. | |||
In the [[Pokemon Trading Card Game#XY Series|XY Series]], a {{TCG ID|XY-P Promo|Hoopa|155}} promotional card released for ''[[M17|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'' also had Pikachu in the background. | |||
The [[Pokemon Trading Card Game#Sun & Moon Series|Sun & Moon Series]] included the release of the {{TCG|Ash vs Team Rocket Deck Kit}}, which has a complete half deck themed around [[Ash Ketchum]]. Pikachu naturally has a card in it: [[Ash's Pikachu-GX (Ash vs Team Rocket Deck 5)|Ash's Pikachu]]{{GX}}. This card is referred to by name by the included {{TCG|Supporter card}} {{TCG ID|Ash vs Team Rocket Deck|Ash's Friendship|25}}. allowing the player to draw four cards with instead of two if they have Ash's Pikachu{{GX}} in play. Pikachu is in the artwork of two other cards in the kit: {{TCG ID|Ash vs Team Rocket Deck|Togedemaru|6}} and {{TCG ID|Ash vs Team Rocket Deck|Tauros|14}}. There was also a set of {{TCG|SM Black Star Promos}} representing the various [[Pikachu in a cap|Ash's Pikachu forms]], each named "Ash's Pikachu" These cards, as with the entire promotion surrounding the forms, were a tie in to the movie ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. Each one wears one of [[Ash's hat]]s from across ''[[Pokémon the Series]]''. As cards with "Ash's" as a prefix, both these and Ash's Pikachu{{GX}} are mechanically [[Owner's Pokémon]], specifically [[Ash's Pokémon]]. Lastly, {{TCG ID|SM Promo|Pikachu|227}}, was printed as SM Black Star Promo, with its basis being the movie ''[[M22|Mewtwo Strikes Back—Evolution]]''. | |||
