Pokedex Entries:
RedIts long tail serves as a ground to protect itself from its own high voltage power.
Blue
YellowWhen electricity builds up inside its body, it becomes feisty. It also glows in the dark.
GoldWhen its electricity builds, its muscles are stimulated, and it becomes more aggressive than usual.
SilverIf the electric pouches in its cheeks become fully charged, both ears will stand straight up.
CrystalIf its electric pouches run empty, it raises its tail to gather electricity from the atmosphere.
RubyIf the electrical sacks become excessively charged, RAICHU plants its tail in the ground and discharges. Scorched patches of ground will be found near this POKéMON's nest.
SapphireThis POKéMON exudes a weak electrical charge from all over its body that makes it take on a slight glow in darkness. RAICHU searches for electricity by planting its tail in the ground.
EmeraldIf it stores too much electricity, its behaviour turns aggressive. To avoid this, it occasionally discharges excess energy and calms itself down.
FireRedIts electric charges can reach even 100,000 volts. Careless contact can cause even an Indian elephant to faint.
LeafGreenIts long tail serves as a ground to protect itself from its own high voltage power.
DiamondIt turns aggressive if it has too much electricity in its body. It discharges power through its tail.
PearlIt can loose 100,000-volt bursts of electricity, instantly downing foes several times its size.
Stadium 1Its electrical attacks may reach 10,000 volts. It discharges electricity from its tail, so it is not harmed by its own power.
Stadium 2When its electricity builds, its muscles are stimulated, and it becomes more aggressive than usual.
TCGDark Raichu: Stores up electricity in its body, then suddenly releases it to surprise and shock everyone.
Shining Raichu: If the electricity in its cheeks runs out, it sticks its tail straight up and uses it to collect energy from the air.
