Pokedex Entry #172:
Pichu, the Tiny Mouse Pokémon. A pre-evolved form of Pikachu. Despite their size, Pichu release bursts of electricity that can shock even humans. However, Pichu are unskilled at controlling their electricity. The electric sacs on Pichu's cheeks are small. If it tries to store more electricity than they can hold, Pichu can sometimes release it by accident when surprised, or when laughing, and shock themselves. When fully charged, Pichu plays very energetically. Despite this Pokémon's cute appearance, those who want to live with one should prepare to be on the receiving end of its electric jolts.
The baby form of Pikachu, Pichu returns to the Smash Bros series for the first time since Super Smash Bros. Melee in 2001. He's lighter and faster than Pikachu, but its electric attacks can damage itself, so be careful. Plus, look at that adorable face!
