Pikachu was the first Pokémon used by [[James]] of [[Team Rocket]] in his battle portion of the exam, sent to battle against the instructor's {{p|Graveler}}. When he first sent it out, James was overjoyed, noting that he had been destroyed by [[Ash's Pikachu]] so many times that he knew all of Pikachu's attacks by heart. This was viewed to be a rather lame exclamation by both his team members [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}}. James ordered Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} and was quite pleased when Pikachu responded to his command. However, Thunderbolt proved to be useless and Graveler responded with a {{m|Tackle}}, which sent Pikachu bouncing off of James's head and rendering it unable to battle. At this point, James expressed his confusion as to why the Thunderbolt had not worked. The instructor explained that [[Electric-type|Electric]] attacks did not work against a {{type2|Ground}} like Graveler. This prompted to James to send out Ivysaur and Charizard and also led to him being expelled from the exam.

Later, Meowth ordered Pikachu to use {{m|Thunder}} on the instructor but the instructor told it to turn around and attack Team Rocket instead. It was at this point that it was officially mentioned that these Pokémon belonged to the instructor because he was the one who trained them.
