How do you get Pikachu in Pokemon Sapphire?

Answer 1

Answer:

Pikachu is in the Safari Zone. Go ahead and save game before you enter, so if you don't catch it before your time is up, you won't have to pay again and again.

Pikachu is in the very first grassy area, it's just super rare. You can stand in one spot and make your character turn in circles to make encounters without using any steps, OR you can get on you Bike and hold B. It makes you jump constantly and will induce an encounter without using steps.

IMPORTANT: When you DO catch your Pikachu, leave and save your game AT ONCE. I made the mistake of sticking around in the Safari Zone to catch more (you can't save game inside the zone) and I dropped my Gameboy and it reset... I lost my Pikachu and am trying to catch another.

*that (above) works perfectly! i literally spent a half hour trying to catch the pikachu, but when i went into the first grassy area, got on my acro bike, and held B, the first Pokemon i got was a pikachu! thanks so much!*

* to make it a little easier just put an electric type Pokemon as your first Pokemon and pikachu will apear more often If you mean "how do you catch pikachu?" then go to the safari zone and after a while of walking through one will appear, usually level 27, its really irratating but hey. And as you are probably aware, they evolve to raichu using a thunderstone.

Hope that helped!
