As part of the "{{bp|Can You Name All the Pokémon? BW}}" promotion, a female {{p|Pikachu}} at level 30 with moves {{m|Teeter Dance}}, {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Electro Ball}}, and, notably, {{m|Sing}}. This Pokémon's moveset ties in with Japanese weekly television show ''{{bp|Pokémon Smash!}}'' and the current Japanese ending song, {{bp|Can You Name All the Pokémon? BW}}, hence it knowing the move Sing, which it cannot normally learn.

Pikachu also has its {{bp|Hidden Ability}} {{a|Lightningrod}}, which (given its gender) may be passed on to its offspring. This is the first time a female Pokémon with its Hidden Ability has been given away. Also of note is the fact that Lightningrod now raises a Pokémon's Special Attack every time it is activated.
