Raichu hits just 0.03% singles usage in the high ladder—utterly unfit for the format. Despite base 110 Speed, its balanced 90 Atk / 90 SpA offers no clear damage niche. Low bulk (55 Def / 80 SpD) and the 6v3 singles time pressure make survival and damage output equally difficult.
0.22% double usage—striking contrast to singles. Raichu's 110 Speed and Fake Out (24.2%) enable effective momentum trades. Despite fragile bulk, Choice Scarf (64.1%) + Lightning Rod (97.2%) makes it a reliable electric sponge and forced switch tool. Fundamentally a utility support mon in doubles.
Playstyle：Choice Scarf (64.1%) is dominant. Fake Out (24.2%), Encore (10%), and Nuzzle (10.5%) form the priority toolbox. Lightning Rod (97.2%) dumps incoming electric hits and forces physical attackers out. Timid nature splits bulk/speed; light SpA investment supports chip damage. Slots into sun-based or VoltTurn cores.
Raichu-Alola manages only 0.02% singles usage—utterly unfit. Surge Surfer and Electric Terrain synergy boost Speed and SpA, but competitive Speed requires active terrain—heavy team reliance. In fast 6v3 singles, terrain setup costs turns and fails easily; combined with fragile bulk, independent damage output and survival are compromised.
0.01% double usage—virtually absent. While Surge Surfer auto-boosts in Electric Terrain, specialist electric options like Choice Scarf Rotom-Wash (49.5%) outclass it. Fragile bulk and terrain-dependency make it uncompetitive versus dedicated support cores.
