VGC Raichu

Raichu is a Pokémon introduced in Generation 1.

Raichu functions as a Support Pokémon. It has a decently high Speed stat, and decent offenses, though it's rather frail, meaning that it cannot take hits from any powerful move that well. It can use strong moves like Endeavor, Fake Out, Thunder Wave and others, and Helping Hand.

As Raichu is a Electric type, it's only weak to Ground, and is immune to paralysis.

• +Lightning Rod allows Raichu to support its allies and also draw any Electric-type move to it; this allows it to shut down Volt Switch and Electro Shot.
• +Raichu's Endeavor allows it to utilize its bulk .
• +Raichu cannot be paralyzed, which means that it's hard to slow it down.
• -Raichu is rather frail, causing it to not be in too long.
• -Raichu can't fit all that it wants on its movepool.
