Pikachu is a short, chubby, rodent-like Pokémon with yellow fur all over its body. Pikachu's ears are long and come to a point with black tips. It has a small mouth which resembles a sideways 3, it has black eyes and two red circles on its cheeks. Its forearms are short and somewhat stubby, with 5 digits on each "hand" and its feet have three digits. It has two brown stripes on its back, and its tail is in the shape of Zigzag-styled lightning bolt, with a patch of brown fur at the base of the tail. It's technically a {{dl|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a quadruped body|quadruped}}, but has been shown to be able to walk upright on its hind legs. | Pikachu is a short, chubby, rodent-like Pokémon with yellow fur all over its body.

A female Pikachu has a v-shaped "dent" at the end of its tail. Male Pikachu do not have this dent. However, both genders' tails resemble a lightning bolt, fitting their Electric typing. In Black and White, male Pikachu have less black covering their ear, though this is only shown in frontal sprites. Also female Pikachu have slightly longer ears, though this is also only shown in frontal sprites. | A female Pikachu has a v-shaped "dent" at the end of its tail. Male Pikachu do not have this dent.
