''Professor Elm must have been shocked when he discovered a pre-evolution of Pikachu! These cute baby Pokémon often discharge electricity accidentally when something takes them by surprise. They also play together by using their tails to make sparks fly! It's cute to watch, but it's good training for battle, too. ''

*The wall jump ability used by Pichu in Melee is usable by Pikachu in Brawl and Smash 4. Along with the fact the blue goggles Pichu wore as an alternate costume in Melee appear for Pikachu in Brawl and Smash 4, the fact that the Pikachu species can only learn Volt Tackle through the Pichu stage, and Pichu's absence as a character after Melee, this has caused speculation that the Pichu from Melee evolved into the Pikachu in subsequent titles.
* Though it has never been confirmed, there has been speculation that the Pikachu in ''Brawl'' and ''Smash 4'' evolved from the Pichu in ''Melee''. The main evidence for this speculation is as follows:
* While Pichu knows {{m|Skull Bash}} and {{m|Agility}} in Melee, it was never able to learn either move. However, its evolved counterpart Pikachu could.  
** Pichu can wall jump in ''Melee'', while Pikachu couldn't until ''Brawl''.
** Also, even though neither move is Electric-type, Pichu still takes damage upon using them in Melee.
** The goggles in Pichu's blue costume are worn by Pikachu in one of its own costumes from ''Brawl'' onwards.
* When Pichu crouches, it falls asleep. However, this is purely aesthetic, as Pichu wakes up instantly when it no longer crouches.
** Before {{g|Sun and Moon}}, the only non-event way for Pikachu to learn {{m|Volt Tackle}} (its [[Final Smash]] in ''Brawl'' onwards) was to evolve from a Pichu that hatched with the move.
* While Pichu knows {{m|Skull Bash}} and {{m|Agility}} in ''Melee'', it was never able to learn either move. However, its evolved counterpart Pikachu could.  
** Also, even though neither move is Electric-type, Pichu still takes damage upon using them in ''Melee''.
* When Pichu crouches, it falls asleep. However, this is purely aesthetic, as Pichu wakes up instantly when it stops crouching.
* Pichu shares the same voice actor with [[Pichu Brothers|Pichu Little]] from the {{pkmn|anime}}.
