Pikachu first appears along the outskirts of {{rt|1|Kanto}}, where [[Professor Oak]] will encounter and catch it. The player receives  Pikachu after they go into Professor Oak's laboratory and attempt to take the starter {{p|Eevee}}, which {{ga|Blue}} will take instead.

Pikachu replaces all of the other usual starter Pokémon, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}}; although these three Pokémon can be received during events later in the game, which reflects how [[Ash Ketchum]] eventually obtained all three of Kanto's starters in the anime. This Pikachu is also the only Pikachu found in Yellow; other Pikachu must be traded in from compatible games.

After battling against Blue for the first time, the Pikachu will choose to stay out of its [[Poké Ball]] and [[walking Pokémon|follow the player]] around unless it faints, is [[Pokémon Storage System|put into storage]], or is traded. If the player decides to speak to Pikachu, a small image of its current emotion will pop up. The image also shows how much the Pikachu [[friendship|likes]] the player. This makes Pokémon Yellow the first game to show Pokémon friendship, which would become more prominent in [[Generation II]]. Pikachu's friendship does not have many uses in the game, however it is vital if the player wishes to receive a Bulbasaur in [[Cerulean City]]. Besides showing Pikachu's emotions and friendship, the image can also show several other events, such as when Pikachu learns {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
