The Pikachu evolutionary line learns their signature move, Volt Tackle as a special Egg Move. You will need to breed for a Pichu with one of the parents holding the Light Ball.

The easiest way to get a Pichu with Volt Tackle is by catching multiple Pikachu at the Trophy Garden. The Light Ball may be found as a held item on wild Pikachu, and if you're lucky, you'll get one.

Take a Male and Female Pikachu and make one of them hold the Light Ball. Place them both in the Nursery until you receive an Egg. This egg will hatch into a Pichu with Volt Tackle.
