In ''[[SM115|The Dealer of Destruction!]]'', Pikachu battled [[Team Skull]]'s leader [[Guzma]] and his {{p|Golisopod}}. Despite the type advantage, Pikachu was quickly overwhelmed by Golisopod, as he was unable to penetrate the Hard Scale Pokémon's armor even when using his Z-Move {{m|Corkscrew Crash}}. The match ended prematurely when Golisopod returned to its Poké Ball due to its {{a|Emergency Exit}} [[Ability]].

In [[SM138]], Ash used Pikachu to finish off [[Gladion's Silvally]], who was worn down by {{AP|Melmetal}}, in the Manalo Conference finals. He then went up against Lycanroc, who was hit by an unexpected Night Daze and blocked Electroweb with Shadow Claw. When Pikachu hit Lycanroc with Thunderbolt, it was revealed to be an illusory disguise by {{p|Zoroark}}. The battle continued in the [[SM139|next episode]], where both Pikachu and Zoroark were evenly matched. When Zoroark used {{m|Never-Ending Nightmare}}, Pikachu used Breakneck Blitz to break through. Both Pokémon collided and were knocked out.
