Pikashunium Z
Revision as of 02:57, 29 April 2022 by Pale Prism(talk | contribs)(Removing redundant categories)
Unaffected by item negating effects (such as Embargo and Klutz). Item manipulating effects (such as Trick and Fling) cannot remove a Z-Crystal from a Pokémon.
It reappeared in A Battle Hand-Off!, where Ash used it to perform 10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt once again to defeat Jessie's Mimikyu at the Thrifty Megamart. Afterwards, it once again reverted back to an Electrium Z.
Ash's Electrium Z transformed into Pikashunium Z once more in From Z to Shining Z!, appearing in response to Professor Kukui performing Guardian of Alola with Tapu Koko. With their signature Z-Move, Ash and Pikachu were able to overpower Tapu Koko's Z-Move and defeat it. This time, however, the Pikashunium Z did not revert back into an Electrium Z afterwards.
The name of this Z-Crystal is a portmanteau of the words Pikachu and Ash (or Satoshi for Japan), referring to the fact that it can only be used by Pikachu in a cap, which is wearing Ash's hat.
