From {{game|Emerald}} onward, if either parent of a baby {{p|Pichu}} holds a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Light Ball}} when the Egg is produced, the Pichu will know Volt Tackle when it hatches.

Volt Tackle is the only move of {{p|Raichu}}. It has a chance to paralyze. After use, it lowers Raichu's Defense and limits Range to 1 on its next turn, regardless of any abilities or items that would normally increase Range. If Raichu uses Volt Tackle consecutively, its Range will continue to be penalized until it passes a turn without attacking.
