Raikou is pretty powerful, but it's best if you wait to evolve your pikachu until he/she learns thunder. Thunder is possibly one of the best electric moves in the game, and he won't be able to get it after evolution. If he's already evolved, then it's still possible to teach it with the TM.
Moves aside, Raikou is great. All stats, especially attack and speed, are high, except for defense. Tends to get killed a bit too easily, which is why it's nice having super powerful electric attacks.
Worth a lot.

If Raikou faints, go to the Burned Tower . Then you see him. Same as the other legendary dogs however Raikou will only regenerate if you defeat the Elite 4 and Lance, once you have caught Raikou, it will no longer regenerate.
