*Despite Pichu using both {{s|bulbapedia|Skull Bash|move}} and {{s|bulbapedia|Agility|move}} as part of its moveset, Pichu cannot legally learn either move in the ''Pokémon'' {{s|bulbapedia|core series}}. Interestingly, Pichu also receives recoil damage if it uses these moves, despite [[Agility]]'s lack of the [[electric]] [[effect]], and both moves' inability to cause {{s|bulbapedia|recoil}} in their home series. | *Despite Pichu using both {{s|bulbapedia|Skull Bash|move}} and {{s|bulbapedia|Agility|move}} as part of its moveset, Pichu cannot legally learn either move in the ''Pokémon'' {{s|bulbapedia|core series}}.

*In the ''Pokémon'' series, the only Electric-type moves that Pichu receives recoil damage from are [[Volt Tackle]] and {{s|bulbapedia|Wild Charge|move}}. This ''Super Smash Bros.''-specific attribute most likely derives from its [[bulbapedia:Pichu#Pokédex entries 2|Pokédex entries]], which state that Pichu are "unskilled at storing electric power". It could also be a reference to the {{s|bulbapedia|Pichu Brothers}} being overwhelmed by their own electricity, as shown in ''[[bulbapedia:PK07|Pikachu and Pichu]]''. | *In the ''Pokémon'' series, the only Electric-type moves that Pichu receives recoil damage from are [[Volt Tackle]] and {{s|bulbapedia|Wild Charge|move}}.
