Ash's Pikachu: Difference between revisions

Line 27: Line 27:
Pikachu is extremely loyal to Ash, and while it is not always immediately trusting of strangers, it is generally friendly to humans and Pokémon alike. It acted as a guardian and big sibling to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], and it has been seen mediating and even breaking up fights among other Pokémon, such as in ''[[Pikachu's Vacation]]''. In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', it, [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]], and Meowth's clone were the only Pokémon not to participate in the giant battle; it stood motionless as its clone repeatedly slapped its face.

Since its first encounter with [[Team Rocket]] in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', Pikachu has been pursued by the trio of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]]. It has been Jessie, James and Meowth's ambition at stealing this Pokémon from Ash and wanting to present it to [[Giovanni|their boss]]. To do this, they devised many attempts and devised many evil plans and came up with many scams and many other terrible schemes. Jessie, James and Meowth try, try, and try some more, but despite trying hard at pulling the evil deed, every last one of their fiendish and conniving efforts and evil plans failed each time. Either their plans were stopped by Ash and his friends and/or every other trainer Ash and his friends assisted throughout the series, including the [[Officer Jenny|Officer Jennies]] in general.

As shown in a handful of episodes, the first being ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', Pikachu has a special fondness for ketchup, but it will eat and enjoy almost any other human or Pokémon food. A running joke in the anime also seems to be the destruction of a female character's [[bike]] with one of Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}s at the beginning of each series, which then causes her to [[Ash's friends|follow Ash]] for the remainder of the series. This has happened to [[Misty]], [[May (anime)|May]], and [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] so far.
