'''Pichu''' is an [[Bulbapedia:Electric (type)|Electric]]-type [[Pokémon]] introduced in the games [[bulbapedia:Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|''Pokémon Gold'' and ''Pokémon Silver'']]. It is the [[bulbapedia:evolution|pre-evolved]] form of [[Pikachu]], the ''Pokémon'' mascot. It has made its only appearance in the ''Mario'' series in the two games: ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.

Pichu is a playable fighter in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It is an unlockable character, unlocked by beating Event Match 37: [[bulbapedia:Legendary Pokémon|Legendary Pokémon]], or by playing 200 Melee matches. Afterward, Pichu must be defeated in a match on [[Pokémon Stadium]].
 
Pichu's moveset is similar to [[Pikachu]]'s, though most of its attacks are weaker, and all of its electrical attacks also deal recoil damage. Pichu is also faster than Pikachu, but is the lightest character in the game, making it easily thrown off the stage. Its neutral special move is [[Thunder Jolt]], its side special move is [[Skull Bash]], its down special move is [[Thunder (Pokémon)|Thunder]], and its up special move is [[Agility]], which does not give as much distance as Pikachu's [[Quick Attack]] and does not deal damage.
 
Pichu is the only character in the game to have two taunts, one for each direction it is facing. It is voiced by ''Satomi Koorogi'' in both English and Japanese, who does its voice in the ''Pokémon'' anime.
 
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
Pichu is one of the five ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' fighters that did not return as a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' (the other four being [[Dr. Mario]], [[Young Link]], [[Mewtwo]], and [[Roy (Fire Emblem)|Roy]]). However, the player can get a [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] of Pichu by clearing All-Star Mode without continuing.

|''A baby Electric-type Pokémon identifiable by its big ears. Pichu evolves into Pikachu. It's not very skilled at storing up electrical energy and will sometimes discharge it if jarred. Although it's small, it has enough electrical power to give even an adult quite a shock. It's often startled by its own power.

|''Compared with Pikachu, Pichu is a tad more nimble and a little more difficult to hit. Those are the only two advantages, however, and since Pichu damages itself when it uses electrical attacks, it's best suited for handicapped matches. Even though Pichu's tough to catch, it's easy to throw its tiny frame great distances.

|''Pichu is the lightest character in Super Smash Bros. Melee., and it's top of the class in weakness, too! For Pichu, it's all about scampering here and there to pick up items that will help it survive. The first warp in Agility causes 1 point of damage to Pichu, and the second causes 3, so try to limit the number of times you use the move.

Pichu has been known to flaunt its courage by touching tails with others and setting off sparks. It is easier for Pichu to build up electricity when the humidity is lower. Pichu will evolve into Pikachu.''

They also play together by using their tails to make sparks fly! It's cute to watch, but it's good training for battle, too.''
