** {{TP|Ash|Pikachu}}'s electric attacks fluctuate between being able to affect {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon (such as [[EP005|Brock's Onix]] and [[AG016|Roxanne's Geodude]]) and having no effect at all (such as [[Spell of the Unown|Lisa's Quagsire]], [[AG096|Rocky's Quagsire]] and [[The Rise of Darkrai|Maurice's Torterra]]). The anime's explanation for this is that ever since [[EP005|Pikachu received a power up]], it has enough power to override the immunity. However, no matter how much power it has, it shouldn't be able to affect Ground-types.
