In ''[[XY130|Finals Not for the Faint-Hearted!]]'', Pikachu was used as Ash's first Pokémon in the finals of the Conference against [[Alain]]. He went up against Alain's {{p|Tyranitar}}, who summoned a {{weather|sandstorm}} upon entering the battlefield due to its {{a|Sand Stream}} Ability which deteriorated Pikachu's sight. Despite this, Pikachu was able to avoid a Dark Pulse. Ash then had Pikachu slam its tail into the field's water stream with Iron Tail to splash the water in the air which cancelled out the sandstorm as well as wetted Tyranitar. This allowed Pikachu to strike Tyranitar with Thunderbolt, dealing major damage due to Tyranitar's wet body. Pikachu then went for Electro Ball, but Tyranitar blocked the attack with Stone Edge and then proceeded to slam the stone pillars with its tail to send multiple stone shards flying at Pikachu. Pikachu, however, deflected all of the shards with Iron Tail and then used the attack once again to counter Tyranitar's Crunch. Tyranitar, however, threw Pikachu in the air, but he was able to launch an Electro Ball in mid-air which defeated Tyranitar. Pikachu was then recalled. He was later used again to face Alain's Metagross. Pikachu started off with Thunderbolt, but Metagross used Agility to dodge the attack and corner Pikachu. Due to this, Pikachu was hit hard by powerful Metal Claw, {{m|Rock Slide}} and Meteor Mash attacks. As Metagross charged another Meteor Mash to finish him off, Pikachu was able to obstruct it with Electro Ball, allowing him to jump on top Metagross. Now he was able to continuously use Thunderbolt, dealing serious damage to the Iron Leg Pokémon. Metagross was eventually able to shake Pikachu off, throwing him in the air, but Pikachu headed downwards and dealt a decisive hit with Iron Tail, knocking Metagross out. Pikachu then faced Alain's strongest Pokémon, {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}. Pikachu managed to hit Charizard with a speedy Quick Attack, followed up by a super effective Thunderbolt. The battle continued in ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', where Pikachu once again hit Charizard with Thunderbolt. Afterwards Ash ordered him to use Quick Attack, but he was too exhausted to use the attack and ended up getting hit by Charizard's Flamethrower. When Charizard repeated its attack, Pikachu used Iron Tail on the ground to create a shield of dirt to block it. He then used Iron Tail again to intercept Charizard's Dragon Claw, but was overpowered and got knocked out.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', he and Ash went with Alain to go look for [[Mairin]], but once they found her they were obstructed by the giant roots. They were then ambushed by [[Celosia]] before her {{p|Drapion}}'s {{m|Confuse Ray}} knocked Ash unconscious. Pikachu attempted to protect his Trainer while fighting the Confuse Ray, but eventually fell to the Confuse Ray's effects as well and lost consciousness. Pikachu, along with Ash and his other Pokémon, was then taken captive by [[Lysandre]] on the top of Prism Tower. He could only watch in horror while Ash and Greninja were hit by [[Team Flare]]'s miniature version of the Mega Evolution energy weapon, until Ash and Greninja freed themselves using [[Bond Phenomenon]], in [[XY133|the following episode]]. Alain's Charizard broke him and the other Pokémon free with Dragon Claw, leaving everyone to battle [[Lysandre's Pyroar]] and Shiny Mega Gyarados together. During the battle, Pikachu and Goodra combined their Thunderbolt and Dragon Pulse to defend against {{p|Pyroar}} and Gyarados's {{m|Incinerate}}. After {{AP|Hawlucha}} was able to hit Pyroar with a super-effective {{m|Karate Chop}}, Pikachu manages to defeat the Royal Pokémon with Thunderbolt. [[XY134|Continuing the battle]], Pikachu and Noivern fired off their Thunderbolt and {{m|Boomburst}} which were countered by Gyarados's Hyper Beam. Pikachu was then targeted by a Dragon Tail, but Noivern pushed him aside, taking the attack in his place which knocked Noivern out. In the end, Pikachu, Greninja and Charizard were the only ones left facing Lysandre's Gyarados, although now aided by [[Malva]]'s Mega {{p|Houndoom}}. The battle finally concluded in ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', where Pikachu hit Gyarados with Quick Attack after avoiding its Hyper Beam and then finished it off with a Thunderbolt.

They were then ambushed by [[Celosia]] before her {{p|Drapion}}'s {{m|Confuse Ray}} knocked Ash unconscious. Pikachu attempted to protect his unconscious Trainer while fighting the Confuse Ray, which is also making him lose consciousness as well due to the Confuse Ray's effects, right before being knocked unconscious. Pikachu, along with Ash and his other Pokémon, was then taken captive by [[Lysandre]] on the top of Prism Tower. He could only watch in horror while Ash and Greninja were hit by [[Team Flare]]'s miniature version of the Mega Evolution energy weapon, until Ash and Greninja freed themselves using [[Bond Phenomenon]], in [[XY133|the following episode]].

Pikachu later helped Serena's Braixen, [[Steven's Metagross]] and Professor Sycamore's Garchomp fight against the [[Megalith Zygarde]]. He, along with the other Pokémon, was eventually subdued by the creature's roots, but was freed by a combined attack from the Pokémon of all the Gym Leaders of Kalos and Diantha. After strategizing, in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', everyone combined their powers to fend off the Megalith Zygarde's roots, allowing Ash and Alain to reach its center and save [[Chespie]], bringing the creature down. After the ressurection of the Megalith Zygarde, who was now controlled by Lysandre, Pikachu, Greninja and Alain's Charizard managed to destroy Lysandre's control device, allowing Squishy and [[Z2]] to destroy the Megalith Zygarde. In [[XY137|the next episode]], Pikachu and the rest of Ash's Pokémon received medals from Professor Sycamore for their heroic efforts against Team Flare.
