Volt Tackle (move): Difference between revisions

While Volt Tackle can be performed in any of the [[Generation III]] games, it can only be obtained via {{game|Emerald}} or later. There is only one method of obtaining Volt Tackle, which involves breeding a female {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Raichu}} holding a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Light Ball}} with any Pokémon in the same [[Egg Group]] (or breed a Pikachu or Raichu of any gender holding a Light Ball with a {{p|Ditto}}). If the Pikachu or Raichu and its mating partner are put into the [[Pokémon Day Care|day care]] and they meet the conditions to produce an Egg, the hatched {{p|Pichu}} will have Volt Tackle. Since this will not work in any game prior to Emerald, trading is the only legitimate way of obtaining Volt Tackle in {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Ruby, Sapphire|s}}, {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed, or LeafGreen|s}}.
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.


In Generation VI, Volt Tackle can be passed down to a Pichu if either parent holds the Light Ball.  
However, as Volt Tackle is not an [[Egg move]], it cannot be inherited by one or both of the parents knowing the move. The only way for Pichu to hatch knowing Volt Tackle is for one of the parents to hold a Light Ball.
