There are 14 Pokémon considered to be electric rodents, with every [[generation]] introducing at least one.  
There are 13 Pokémon considered to be electric rodents, with every [[generation]] introducing at least one.  


Design-wise, all of these Pokémon have big round heads, button-like eyes, and electric pouches on their cheeks. All are in the {{egg|Fairy}} or {{egg|Field}} [[Egg Group]]s, and all have English names very close to being pure transliterations of their Japanese names. Prior to [[Generation VIII]], these were the only Pokémon capable of learning {{m|Nuzzle}}; {{p|Morpeko}} is the only member that cannot learn Nuzzle.

The Pawmi family, being introduced in [[Generation IX]], have yet to be directly grouped with the electric rodents officially, though they share the same design theme and other overall similarities.

Marill has similar design traits to {{p|Pikachu}}, being a cute, round Pokémon with black button-like eyes. Prior to the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Marill was often referred to as "Pikablu" by fans, and it was erroneously referred to as such on the [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards|Topps trading cards for the first movie]]. However, Marill has never officially been acknowledged as related to the electric rodents.

{{p|Mimikyu}}'s design is directly inspired by Pikachu, and it is sometimes featured in official artwork showcasing these Pokémon. The Japanese web page for the "Mouse Pokémon" merchandise states "よく見ると、でんきタイプではないポケモンが1匹、こっそり仲間入りしているね" which can be translated to mean "If you look closely, you'll see that one Pokemon that is not an Electric type has secretly joined the group". This may reference Mimikyu's behavior of pretending to be a Pikachu.

{{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Plusle}}, {{p|Minun}}, {{p|Pawmo}}, and {{p|Pawmot}} are the only members of this group that aren't owned or cared for by any of the main characters of either animated TV series, though it is confirmed in ''[[JN001|Enter Pikachu!]]'' that Ash's Pikachu used to be a Pichu.
