==Overview==
==Overview==
Pichu calls a thundercloud down, which hits it and causes recoil damage. But unlike its other special moves, it's possible for it to not cause recoil damage; If the thunderbolt misses Pichu (which can only be done in midair), it will not take damage.
If used in midair and the bolt hits Pichu, it jumps upward a little. It can be used as a recovery, but because it already has the much more reliable Agility, it is not recommended to be used for recovery.
