How to Get Pikachu With Volt Tackle in Pokemon SoulSilver

"Volt Tackle" is a powerful Electric-type attack that Pikachu can only learn in the Nintendo DS video-game "Pokemon SoulSilver." You can only get a Pikachu with "Volt Tackle" by breeding it from two other Pikachus, one of whom has to be holding a specific item. Pokemon can only mate at the Pokemon Day Care Center. If you evolve your Pikachu into Raichu using a Thunder Stone, it will still know "Volt Tackle."

Things You'll Need

Two Pikachus or Raichus

Instructions

  Go to Viridian Forest on Route Two between Viridian City and Pewter City in the Kanto region. Catch at least one female Pikachu and one male, one of which must be holding a "Light Ball."

  Put the two Pikachus in the Day Care.

  Go back to the Day Care and the old man outside will call you over and give you an egg.

  Place the egg in your traveling party of six Pokemon and walk around some more. Every 255 steps, there is a chance the egg will hatch. The Pikachu will eventually hatch, and it will know the move "Volt Tackle."
