A group of {{type|Electric}} Pokémon based on {{wp|rodent}}s, consisting of {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Raichu}} (sometimes omitted), {{p|Pichu}} (sometimes omitted), {{p|Plusle}}, {{p|Minun}}, {{p|Pachirisu}}, {{p|Emolga}}, {{p|Dedenne}}, {{p|Togedemaru}}, {{p|Morpeko}}, {{p|Pawmi}}, {{p|Pawmo}}, and {{p|Pawmot}}. Design-wise, all of them have electric sacs on their cheeks. All are in the {{egg|Fairy}} or {{egg|Field}} [[Egg Group]]s, and all have English names very close to being pure transliterations of their Japanese names. This group is also referred to as the '''Pikachu family''', '''electric rodents''', or '''Pikaclones'''. An equivalent term used within the Japanese fandom is '''{{tt|電気袋組|でんきぶくろぐみ}}'''.
