Trivia[]

  • This can be a reference to the Pokémon games, where the main character is a Pokemon Trainer, battling and training Pokémon to become a Pokemon Master.
  • This is one of the 4 events played in Pokémon Stadium. The others are Event 30: All-Star Match 3, Event 39: Jigglypuff Live!, and Event 49: All-Star Match Deluxe.
  • It is possible to block Pikachu from picking up Poké Balls by giving it a non-throwing item. This can only happen if the player, as Peach, spawns a Beam Sword or Mr. Saturn via Vegetable, then drops it close to a Poké Ball such that Pikachu unintentionally picks it up. Once Pikachu has the item, it will never throw or attack with it, even after more Poké Balls appear on the stage.
  • Pikachu will still attempt to shield attacks, even though they are harmless. As such, it is possible to force Pikachu to break its shield by using a quick attack such as Fox's Blaster.
