In ''[[HZ024|Reunion at the Ancient Castle!]]'', Captain Pikachu stayed behind to guard the Brave Olivine while his Trainer, Liko, and Roy went to an [[ancient castle]] in [[Hammerlocke]]. In the [[HZ025|following episode]], he and the rest of the group arrived at the castle after Friede called upon them. Cap briefly battled [[Sidian]]'s {{p|Garganacl}} and set off [[Coral]]'s fury, which resulted in her commanding her {{p|Glalie}} to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}. He and his Trainer managed to barely escape the explosion and reunited with the rest of the Rising Volt Tacklers.

In [[HZ030]], Captain Pikachu noticed an odd Pokémon, as he saw a strange purple liquid on the battlefield during his training with Roy's Fuecoco and Liko's Sprigatito. Later, Captain Pikachu found the Pokémon and discovered it to be a wild {{p|Polteageist}}. Hearing that Polteageist wanted to battle {{p|Shuckle}}, Captain Pikachu let them and invited some of the other Pokémon, including [[Murdock's Rockruff]] and {{an|Terapagos}}, to watch. However, the battle was called off, but Captain Pikachu and his friends welcomed Polteageist to the group, as they were joined by Fuecoco, Sprigatito, and [[Dot's Quaxly]] in the celebration.

In [[HZ044]], Captain Pikachu fought against Spinel's {{p|Umbreon}} after getting trapped in a tower with him. By allowing Umbreon to send Cap crashing into a wall and then hitting the wall with Volt Tackle, Cap was able to create an opening that allowed Friede to escape.

Captain Pikachu is shown to be diligent and responsible, as he seems to take his position of captain seriously, being easily distinguished from the rest of his {{p|Pikachu|species}} for wearing a captain's beret outside of battles. Captain Pikachu is also intelligent and powerful, and has been shown to battle on equal terms with [[Amethio's Ceruledge]] several times. In ''[[HZ016|Quaxly, We Can Do It]]'', his intelligence was at full display, as Captain Pikachu managed to figure out from the battle style alone that his opponent was not the one he and Friede were looking for. Pikachu has also been shown to be independent, capable of battling competently without the need of a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s commands. However, despite this, Captain Pikachu has shown to be friendly with both people and Pokémon.

As co-leader of both the Pokémon that belong to Friede's teammates and the group that live on the [[Brave Olivine]], Captain Pikachu usually keeps things in order with both groups. Also, he is welcoming to new members, as shown in [[HZ030]], when he with the Pokémon living on the Brave Olivine and some of his Trainer's teammates Pokémon welcome a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Polteageist}} to the group. In addition, Captain Pikachu is protective of the airship, as seen in ''[[HZ005|Found You, Fuecoco!]]'', when he attacked [[Roy]] after he caught him sneaking around it.

Captain Pikachu has a habit of standing on his tail, especially when he is sitting on the chair at the captain's deck. As revealed in [[HZ035]], Captain Pikachu has a kind of "allergy" when he is called "cute" or when this characteristic is noticed, where he starts sneezing and even ends up losing focus on what he was doing.
