Flavor Text
	Sword	Its long tail serves as a ground to protect itself from its own high-voltage power.
	Shield	If its electric pouches run empty, it raises its tail to gather electricity from the atmosphere.
	Sword	It's believed that the weather, climate, and food of the Alola region all play a part in causing Pikachu to evolve into this form of Raichu.
	Shield	This Pokémon rides on its tail while it uses its psychic powers to levitate. It attacks with star-shaped thunderbolts.
Brilliant Diamond		It turns aggressive if it has too much electricity in its body. It discharges power through its tail.
Shining Pearl		It can loose 100,000-volt bursts of electricity, instantly downing foes several times its size.
Legends: Arceus		It can discharge bursts of electricity exceeding 100,000 volts— a single strike with that amount of power would incapacitate one of the Copperajah of my homeland.
