| [[File:Pokemon 025Pikachu.png|left]]Instead of having a choice, Yellow players are always given a Pikachu by Prof. Oak. This is a bit disappointing from a statistical standpoint, as Pikachu's only good stat is Speed. It makes up for it by being Electric-type, one of the best all-around types in the game. While it makes Pikachu weak against Ground-types (which can easily knock it out due to its horrendous defense stat), Electric attacks absolutely shred the game's plentiful Flying- and Water-types. You can see this at work as Pikachu's Thundershock fries the Pidgeys hanging around [[Pokémon Red and Blue/Route 1|Route #1]]. Unfortunately, Pikachu can't evolve in Yellow, so it's really only useful during the first half of the game. However, all the other Electric-types are unable to learn the powerful STAB move Thunderbolt upon leveling up (forcing them to use the only TM24 that contains said move), but unlike them, Yellow Pikachu gets Thunderbolt by level 26, giving it a powerful attack early in the game.

| [[File:Pokemon 133Eevee.png|right]]Just as you always get Pikachu, your rival always gets an Eevee as his first Pokémon. And that's fine, because Eevee's not much of a threat. It's a weak Pokémon that learns only Normal-type moves, and not very good ones. When it evolves, though, it's a different story...
