Pikachu's next major battle was in Ash's [[Vermilion Gym]] battle against [[Lt. Surge's Raichu]] in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]''. [[Lt. Surge]] laughed at Ash for attempting to defeat his Raichu with its pre-evolved form, angering Ash and Pikachu. Pikachu started off using {{m|Thunder Shock}} which seemed to do nothing to Raichu. Raichu then used its own Thunder Shock, which was much more powerful than Pikachu's attack, and dealt much damage. Following advice from Brock, Ash tried recalling Pikachu and forfeit. Pikachu, however, was determined to defeat Raichu and kept fighting. While trying to attack, Pikachu got overwhelmed by Raichu's {{m|Mega Punch}} and {{m|Mega Kick}} and was finally defeated by a powerful Thunderbolt. Due to all the damage he had taken during the battle, Pikachu had to be hospitalized. Later in the episode, Ash offered to let Pikachu evolve into a Raichu with a [[Thunder Stone]] that Nurse Joy had given him. However, Pikachu refused, wanting to defeat Raichu on his own terms.

Later, Ash challenged Lt. Surge for a rematch, where Pikachu once again faced Raichu. Trying to get close, Pikachu got smacked to the ground by Raichu's tail, followed up by repeating hits from its tail. Raichu then hit him hard with {{m|Body Slam}}. As Raichu was about to finish him off with another Body Slam, Pikachu managed to get up and dodge it. Ash soon found out that since Raichu was evolved so early, it did not learn any of the moves that it could only learn as a Pikachu, such as {{m|Agility}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}. Through his use of these moves, Pikachu managed to gain the upper hand and dodge Raichu's attacks. Raichu responded with an extremely powerful Thunderbolt attack that Lt. Surge was sure could defeat Pikachu. Pikachu, however, used his tail as an anchor to absorb the shock. Raichu tried using Thunderbolt again but due to its previous attack it had run out of electricity. It then tried to hit Pikachu with a {{m|Take Down}}, but was outsped by Pikachu's Quick Attack. Pikachu then used his tail to slam Raichu and defeat it, earning Ash the {{badge|Thunder Badge}}.

In ''[[EP022|Abra and the Psychic Showdown]]'', Pikachu was sent out to battle against [[Sabrina's Abra]] during Ash's [[Saffron Gym]] battle. It proved to be a tough foe, using {{m|Teleport}} to avoid Pikachu's Thunder Shock. Abra then suddenly evolved into Kadabra, making it much stronger. Pikachu tried filling the battlefield with lightining to prevent Kadabra from using Teleport, but Kadabra countered with {{m|Confusion}} to send the attack back at Pikachu. Kadabra then used {{m|Psychic}} to control Pikachu's body and started to repeatedly smash him into the ceiling and back down. Unwilling to see his friend suffer even more, Ash forfeited the match.

In ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', when Ash was in doubt for what Pokémon he should use after his two Pokémon were defeated in his Gym battle against [[Elesa]], Pikachu shocked Ash to convince him to use him. He went up against Elesa's powerful {{p|Emolga}}. After both Pokémon's Electro Balls collided, Pikachu defeated the Sky Squirrel Pokémon with a single Quick Attack. Pikachu then faced Elesa's {{p|Tynamo}}. Despite her not looking very strong, Tynamo proved to be a tough opponent, using speedy and strong Tackles to hit Pikachu hard. Tynamo managed to slam Pikachu into the ground. While stuck in the ground he was unable to defend himself against Tynamo's countless Tackles. Pikachu eventually managed to break free and started using Thunderbolt on the battle field. The now rocky field forced Tynamo to face Pikachu head on only. Tynamo then dashed forwards using Tackle. Pikachu had Tynamo come close and then launched a powerful Iron Tail, defeating her thus winning Ash the {{Badge|Bolt}}.

In ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'', Pikachu was used in a battle against the [[Unova League]] [[Champion]] [[Alder]], where he faced his {{p|Bouffalant}}. Pikachu hit Bouffalant with all his attacks, but it absorbed the hits with its afro. Alder, however, didn't give any orders, causing Bouffalant to get angry. It was then revealed Alder was sleeping. After he was woken up, Alder ordered Bouffalant to use {{m|Head Charge}}, but Bouffalant still angry at him used the attack on him instead. The battle was then called off.

In ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'', Pikachu teamed up with [[Cilan's Stunfisk]] to battle {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}}. Stunfisk used its amazing jumping ability to get them both into the air so that they could launch a Thunderbolt—Thunder Shock combination at the two legendary Pokémon. Later, in ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', Pikachu helped rescue the {{an|Forces of Nature}} from Team Rocket.

Pikachu was used as Ash's final Pokémon in his battle against [[Hala]] during the Melemele Island grand trial in [[SM010]]. He faced Hala's {{p|Hariyama}}, who was able to block his attacks using its big hands and hit him afterwards. While repeatedly getting hit by Hariyama's {{m|Arm Thrust}}, Pikachu eventually managed to slip past Hariyama and strike it with Thunderbolt. Hariyama, however, was not fazed by this attack and proceeded to use {{m|Belly Drum}}, maximizing its Attack but also halving its health. Pikachu then used Quick Attack in an attempt to dodge Hariyama's Z-Move {{m|All-Out Pummeling}}, but was ultimately hit by the attack. After getting up, Pikachu circled around Hariyama using Quick Attack and managed to knock it off its feet using Iron Tail. Ash used this opportunity to have Pikachu perform {{m|Breakneck Blitz}}, which sent Hariyama flying and knocked it out. Having cleared the Melemele Island grand trial, Ash was rewarded a new Electrium Z.

In [[SM019]], Ash and Pikachu trained for a rematch against Tapu Koko. The next day, the two were greeted by Tapu Koko again, who challenged them for another battle. Unlike in their last battle, Pikachu managed get a few hits on the guardian deity, but was eventually struck by its powerful attacks. Ash and Pikachu showed their improvements by performing Gigavolt Havoc, which was this time powerful enough to sent Tapu Koko flying. A clash between Pikachu and Tapu Koko, however, blasted the former off a cliff, prompting Ash to jump after him. The two were saved in time by Tapu Koko, who flew off afterwards.

Even with his high level of electrical power, Pikachu has not stopped learning new attacks. Upon learning that [[Roxanne]], the Rustboro Gym Leader used Rock types, Ash had Pikachu begin learning Iron Tail in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]''. After training hard, Pikachu finally perfected it in ''[[AG016|The Winner by a Nosepass]]'', where he used it to defeat Roxanne's {{p|Nosepass}} and earn Ash his first Hoenn Badge. In addition to giving Pikachu an advantage over Rock types, Iron Tail has allowed Pikachu to defeat many powerful opponents. In ''[[AG150|May's Egg-Cellent Adventure]]'', during a battle with Team Rocket, Ash ordered Pikachu to do a Quick Attack. Much to the surprise of Ash and his friends, the Quick Attack morphed into Volt Tackle which sent Team Rocket blasting off. Until ''[[BW020|Dancing With the Ducklett Trio!]]'', it has been one of Pikachu's signature moves, in which Pikachu replaced it with Electro Ball, which it learned while battling a trio of annoying {{p|Ducklett}}. Not only that, Pikachu has used his Ability, {{a|Static}}, a few times in the anime.

===Pikachu's imitations===
Pikachu seems to have a talent for mimicking Pokémon, as seen in multiple episodes of the anime. He will occasionally use pantomime to specify what he is talking about. He can contort his face and his ears to imitate Ash, his {{AP|Turtwig}}, or {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, among others.

===Pikachu's language===
Some of [[Pokémon language|Pikachu's speech]] is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. (In ''[[DP115|Stealing The Conversation!]]'', {{TRT}} refers to this language as "PikaSpeak," but this most likely isn't official.) For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
* Pi-Kachu: ''[[Dawn's Piplup|Pochama]]'' (Piplup)
* Pikachu-Pi: ''{{an|Misty|Kasumi}}'' (Misty)
* Pika-Chu: ''{{an|Brock|Takeshi}}'' (Brock), ''[[Iris's Axew|Kibago]]'' (Axew)
* Pikaka: ''{{an|Dawn|Hikari}}'' (Dawn)
* PiPiPi: ''{{TP|Misty|Togepy|Togepi}}'' (Togepi)
* PikakaPika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
* PikaPika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle), ''[[Ash's Staraptor|Mukuhawk]]'' (Staraptor), ''[[Ash's Infernape|Goukazaru]]'' (Infernape) '' [[Ash's Palpitoad|Gamagaru]]'' (Palpitoad) or ''[[BW129|Marilli]]'' (Azumarill)
* PiPi-kachu: ''[[Team Rocket trio|Rocket-dan]]'' (Team Rocket)
* Pi-Pikachu: ''[[Gotta catch 'em all!|Get da ze!]]'' (He says this after Ash wins a Badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar.)
** Pikachu may not be the only one to use this phrase, as other Pokémon do this as well. For example, when Iris caught Emolga, Axew said Ax-Axew (Ki-Kibago in the Japanese). This also happened when Iris caught {{TP|Iris|Gible}} in ''[[SS028]]''.
* Pika-Pikachu: When referring to or introducing himself.
* Chaa: Anything he says happily or excitedly, or when yawning.
* Pika!: "Matte!", or saying "Wait!"
* Pi-kaPika: "Sayōnara," or saying "Good-bye."

{{bulbanews|Cap Pikachu, Pikashunium Z to be available in Japan}}
These cap-wearing Pikachu are {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive Pokémon that debuted in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], and are being distributed in celebration of the [[Pokémon anime]]'s [[M20|20th movie]], and by extension, the anime's 20th anniversary. Like Ash's Pikachu, these Pikachu are always [[gender|male]] and cannot evolve. They also have access to the exclusive [[Z-Crystal]], {{DL|Z-Crystal|Pikashunium Z}}, and its [[Z-Move]], {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}}.
In Japan, the Pikachu will be distributed via single-use [[serial code]] to those who pre-order tickets to the 20th movie, with one code per ticket. The Pikachu received depends on the date the player redeems the code. The codes only work on Japanese region games. The first time the player uses one of these serial codes, they will also receive a complimentary Pikashunium Z.

===Pikachu's imitations===
Pikachu seems to have a talent for mimicking Pokémon, as seen in multiple episodes of the anime. He will occasionally use pantomime to specify what he is talking about. He can contort his face and his ears to imitate Ash, his {{AP|Turtwig}}, or {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, among others.

===Pikachu's language===
Some of [[Pokémon language|Pikachu's speech]] is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. (In ''[[DP115|Stealing The Conversation!]]'', {{TRT}} refers to this language as "PikaSpeak," but this most likely isn't official.) For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
* Pi-Kachu: ''[[Dawn's Piplup|Pochama]]'' (Piplup)
* Pikachu-Pi: ''{{an|Misty|Kasumi}}'' (Misty)
* Pika-Chu: ''{{an|Brock|Takeshi}}'' (Brock), ''[[Iris's Axew|Kibago]]'' (Axew)
* Pikaka: ''{{an|Dawn|Hikari}}'' (Dawn)
* PiPiPi: ''{{TP|Misty|Togepy|Togepi}}'' (Togepi)
* PikakaPika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
* PikaPika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle), ''[[Ash's Staraptor|Mukuhawk]]'' (Staraptor), ''[[Ash's Infernape|Goukazaru]]'' (Infernape) '' [[Ash's Palpitoad|Gamagaru]]'' (Palpitoad) or ''[[BW129|Marilli]]'' (Azumarill)
* PiPi-kachu: ''[[Team Rocket trio|Rocket-dan]]'' (Team Rocket)
* Pi-Pikachu: ''[[Gotta catch 'em all!|Get da ze!]]'' (He says this after Ash wins a Badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar.)
** Pikachu may not be the only one to use this phrase, as other Pokémon do this as well. For example, when Iris caught Emolga, Axew said Ax-Axew (Ki-Kibago in the Japanese). This also happened when Iris caught {{TP|Iris|Gible}} in ''[[SS028]]''.
* Pika-Pikachu: When referring to or introducing himself.
* Chaa: Anything he says happily or excitedly, or when yawning.
* Pika!: "Matte!", or saying "Wait!"
* Pi-kaPika: "Sayōnara," or saying "Good-bye."
