==Origin==
==Origin==
{{pkmn|Raichu}} is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in ''Pokémon Red Version'', ''Green Version'', and ''Blue Version'', and is categorized within the Pokédex at #026 as the "Mouse Pokémon". It is characterized by its orange fur, yellow cheeks, and long, wiry tail. It is the evolved form of [[Pikachu]], and, in ''Pokémon Gold Version'' and ''Silver Version'', became the final evolution of the [[Pichu]] evolution line. It isn’t as popular as Pikachu like Pichu, but it is still an iconic Pokémon, even being owned by Goh in the Pokemon anime.

In ''Pokémon Sun'' and ''Moon'', several Generation I Pokémon received variations to accommodate for Alola's climate — among those was Raichu, who received an Electric/Psychic-type variation. Alolan Raichu is rounder than its Kantonian form, and has a tendency to use its tail as a makeshift surfboard while using its psychokinetic powers to float. This may be a callback to how Pikachu could learn {{iw|bulbapedia|Surf|move}} in ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Stadium|English}}'', and how evolving it into Raichu would cause it to use its tail as a makeshift surfboard.
