AOE Build Explanation

This build revolves around bombarding enemies with Thunderbolt and Thunder from the backlines.

• Wise Glasses provides Pikachu a large Sp. Atk. stat boost thanks to its percentage bonus.
• Choice Specs gives Pikachu more Sp. Atk. stat and increases its minimum move damage.
• Slick Spoon further adds more Sp. Atk. stat and grants Pikachu Sp. Def. penetration for its moves. It also gives a decent amount of HP for some durability.
• Eject Button gives Pikachu a reliable reposition tool to keep its distance from enemies.
• X Speed can also work with the build for the same purpose.
• The build's Boost Emblem loadout should consist of 7 Black Emblems for some move cooldown reduction and 6 Green Emblem to maximize its damage. This can be achieved by equipping at least three (3) Emblems that are both Black and Green.
• Equip Emblems that improve Sp. Atk. to further improve Pikachu's move damage.
• Attack, Critical-Hit Rate, Sp. Def., and Defense can be freely traded for the other stats.

Items (@Lvl 30)	Thunderbolt (@ Lvl 15)	Thunder (@ Lvl 15)

Since the build is centered on Thunder and Thunderbolt, equipping items that will maximize their damage is the ideal item combination.

Out of all the item combinations, Wise Glasses, Choice Specs, and Slick Spoon will be the best for the build. The item combination generated only slightly lower results compared to the highest one, but it doesn't require Pikachu to stack an item to attain the maximum damage.

This build is centered on bursting down targets with Volt Tackle and Electro Ball, particularly key targets.

• Choice Specs gives Pikachu more Sp. Atk. stat and increases its minimum move damage.
• Slick Spoon further adds more Sp. Atk. stat and grants Pikachu Sp. Def. penetration for its moves. It also gives a decent amount of HP for some durability.

• Eject Button gives Pikachu a reliable reposition tool to chase or escape enemies.
• X Speed can also work with the build for the same purpose.

Since the build is centered on bursting down targets with Volt Switch and Electro Ball, equipping items that will maximize their damage output is the ideal item combination.

As the results show, Choice Specs, Slick Spoon, and Energy Amplifier will yield the best outcome for the build. However, Pikachu needs to activate Thunderstorm first to attain the maximum damage possible.

Pikachu Best Items & Moveset

Best Held Items

Item	Explanation
Buddy Barrier	Buddy Barrier provides additional HP for Pikachu, allowing the Pokemon to have extra durability in battle. IT also synergizes well with the Thunderstorm as it gives extra shields when getting aggressive.
Energy Amplifier	Energy Amplifier further decreases Pikachu's already low cooldown time. It synergizes well with Thunderstorm as it increases the move's AoE damage significantly.
Wise Glasses	Wise Glasses provides a straight boost to Piakchu's Sp. Attack stat. This further increases the Pokemon's overall damage output.
Shell Bell	Shell Bell's cooldown reduction and healing effects makes Pikachu's moves more valuable and effective. Although it gives less Sp. Atk. stat compared to others, it's a decent item nonetheless.
Choice Specs	Choice Specs functions similarly to Wise Glasses since both give the same flat Sp. Atk. boost, increasing its burst potential.
Slick Spoon	Slick Spoon improves Pikachu's damage output by ignoring a portion of its target's Sp. Def. stat, especially against high durability Pokemon. It also provides increased Sp. Atk. and HP, which are essential to the Pokemon.

Best Moveset

Move	Explanation
Thunderbolt	Thunderbolt is essential for winning team battles since it locks down enemies in an area with a long stun.
Thunder	Thunder deals tons of area damage that is perfect for teamfights. It also has great synergy with Thunderbolt.

This moveset makes Pikachu into a long-ranged, artillery caster that is perfect for teamfights. Thunderbolt is a simple area disabling move, which also deals decent damage. It's useful for setting up Pikachu's other moves and its allies' own moves. Thunder deals damage tons of damage in an area, which goes well with Thunderbolt.

Thunder and Electro Ball are Pikachu's primary damage move. Both deal tons of damage but have different targetting mechanics.

Thunder is an area move that summons multiple thunder strikes within the designated area. It deals massive damage but may require some setup since enemies can simple walk away from the area. It's also great for zoning out opponents from certain positions like Goal Zones.

Electro Ball is a single-target move that is great for bursting down or poking targets. Although it only hits one target, it does deal damage to enemies around the main target.

Thunderbolt and Volt Tackle are Pikachu's complimentary and disabling moves.

Thunderbolt stuns enemies within an area and can be used on the ground. It's great during teamfights where opponents are close to each other, allowing Pikachu to setup plays for its allies.

Volt Tackle only stuns a single target but deals more damage compared to Thunderbolt. It's great for isolating and bursting down key targets during or before teamfights.

Although selecting move combinations is ultimately up to player preference, pairing certain moves allows for specialization. For more of a backline caster, Thunder and Thunderbolt is the best move combination. To focus more on single-target assassination, Electro Ball and Volt Tackle is the ideal combination.

Get Aggressive in the Early Game

Pikachu has one of the best early-game kits because of its stuns and quick damage. While it is still recommended to focus on farming Wild Pokemon during the early game before engaging the enemy, Pikachu is a dependable Attacker that can get easy knockouts.

Set up Knockdowns with Electroweb

Electroweb immobilizes a single target for a decent amount of time. It is best used for trapping opponents that overextends in lane, especially when they are far from their goal zone. Since the move also deals damage when it lands on an opponent, it will be easier for Pikachu to knock them down once isolated, especially if there is an ally that can follow up.

Alternatively, Pikachu can also use Electroweb defensively by stopping the opponent in place while you pursued.

Electroweb: Pikachu Move Effect and Cooldown

Steal Wild Pokemon with Thunder Shock

Thunder Shock offers a decent amount of early-game damage. Since the move is a sure-hit, Pikachu will be able to activate it easily without the need for much aiming. Use it to pressure opponents or steal Wild Pokemon spawns to deny EXP from the enemy team.

Thunder Shock: Pikachu Move Effect and Cooldown

Pick Damage Move Based on Enemy Composition

Once Pikachu reaches level 4, it will get to choose its damage move. While both choices are great in dealing high amounts of damage, the choice of Thunder or Electro Ball should be made based on the composition of the enemy team.

Learn Thunder for Sturdy Opponents

Thunder deals continuous damage within an affected area. It is best suited for team fights when the enemy is grouped closely together. It's also great for discouraging opponents from approaching a certain area.

Thunder: Pikachu Move Effect and Cooldown

Learn Electro Ball for Mobile Opponents

Electro Ball is a sure hit move that is easy to use. It is great for fighting highly mobile enemies like Speedsters or All-Rounders with dash moves. Moreover, it has a short cooldown, allowing Pikachu to frequently pressure your target with attacks.

Electro Ball: Pikachu Move Effect and Cooldown

Get More Value Out of Stuns

Pikachu has a strong arsenal of long-ranged stun moves that also packs a punch. Both moves have the same effect of stuns but differ in how they are controlled. One move may be best to pick depending on your desired playstyle.

Shut Down Single Targets with Volt Tackle

Volt Tackle deals damage to a single target while locking them down in place for a short time. If you time it right, you can also disrupt and cancel enemy moves as they activate them. However, it's important to be careful when using this move since Pikachu will charge towards the target's position, opening Pikachu for a counterattack.

Volt Tackle: Pikachu Move Effect and Cooldown

Stun Multiple Opponents with Thunderbolt

Unlike Volt Tackle, Thunderbolt deals area damage and stuns opponents in the area. A well-placed Thunderbolt will incapacitate opponents long enough for allies to bombard them with attacks. Use this to hold enemies in place to defeat them in one go or simply deal damage AoE damage at long range.

Thunderbolt: Pikachu Move Effect and Cooldown

Attack Safely from Range

Since Pikachu's attack and cast range are quite long, it can easily kite and poke enemies safely at the edge of the attack range, before stunning them and finishing them off with an Electro Ball or Thunder. Using Battle Items like Eject Button or X Speed can be used to allow Pikachu to keep a safe distance from opponents.

Turn Up the Aggression with Thunderstorm

Thunderstorm's charge rate is relatively fast, allowing Pikachu to use it more freely and frequently. Pkiachu can improve it further by equipping Energy Amplifier with the bonus of dealing more damage for a short duration after using it.

Once Pikachu activates Thunderstorm, it's best to turn up the aggression and quickly follow up with other moves, allowing Pikachu to deal tons of burst damage in a short time.

Alternatively, Thunderstorm can also be used as an escape mechanism for Pikachu when the need arises. Activating the Unite move will give Pikachu a window of invulnerability to escape, as well as shoot lightning bolts at nearby enemies. No matter the situation, it is best to save the Unite move for intense fights.

Strike First

Ranged, Fragile Pokemon with High Damage
How to Beat
• Much like Pikachu, these Pokemon prefer to keep their distance from opponents when fighting. They also have high damage potential that can knock out Pikachu quickly. However, they are fragile and can get knocked out by Pikachu fast. Winning against these Pokemon is all a matter of striking first. • Use Thunderbolt or Volt Tackle to stun them, then follow up with Thunder or Electro Ball to deplete their HP. • As a last resort, go in with Thunderstorm after stunning them and following up with Thunder or Electro Ball to ensure a knockout.

Kite Them with Moves

All-Rounders
How to Beat
• These Pokemon excel in close combat and rely mostly on their attacks or combos to deal damage. They are also durable enough to tank Pikachu's damage. However, they have to come close first to attack, making them susceptible to getting kited. • Disable them using Thunderbolt or Volt Tackle, then follow up with Thunder or Electro Ball to discourage them from approaching. • When they manage to get close, use Thunderstorm to quickly burst them down.

Utilize Their Numbers

Supporters
How to Beat
• These Pokemon usually stick with their allies and rarely venture alone. Although they themselves pose no threat to Pikachu, their support capabilities makes them valuable during fights. • Take advantage of them being in close proximity to each other by using Thunderbolt to stun them, then following up with Thunder or Electro Ball to deal burst damage. • Alternatively, use Thunderstorm after stunning and bursting them with Pikachu's moves to finish them off.

Group Up with Allies

Highly Durable Pokemon
How to Beat
• These Pokemon are extremely durable, making it hard for Pikachu to take them out alone. With that, it's best to group up with allies to bring them down with the help of Pikachu. • Keep them disabled using Thunderbolt or Volt Tackle, then follow up with Thunder or Electro Ball to deleplete their HP.
