025 Pikachu

I know this is the most popular pokemon, but I'm actually sort of indifferent when it comes to Pikachu. I have no particular fondness or hatred for the electric mouse. I based him off the jerboa - look 'em up, they are goofy looking.

Info from Bulbapedia:

As Pikachu build up energy in their electricity glands, it often needs to discharge. Pikachu release the built-up energy through their tail, which acts as a grounding rod, to safely remove unneeded energy. A sure sign to tell if a location is inhabited by Pikachu is to look for patches of burnt grass.

In the wild, Pikachu often travel in packs, and are rarely territorial. However, when threatened, a group can generate an intense electrical offensive, and the electro-magnetic forces exerted by the resulting field can even produce a short lived, localized thunderstorm. Pikachu can be harmful pests, eating and sometimes destroying telephone poles, wires, and other electronic equipment.

Despite this, it is a popular pet, and relatively easy to maintain, with little exercise necessary for its well being.
