Vitamins, battle items and HP-healing items increase Pikachu's friendship even if they have no effect. For instance, attempting to use a [[Potion]] on a Pikachu that has [[fainting|fainted]] or has full health, an [[Antidote]] when Pikachu is not [[Poison (status condition)|poisoned]], [[Calcium]] when Pikachu has already reached its maximum {{DL|Statistic|Special}} [[stat experience]], or [[X Special]] when the Special stat has already been {{DL|Statistic|Stat modifiers|raised 6 stages}} in battle.
