The Pikachu you start with in Pokémon Yellow will not evolve because the Pikachu in question is based on the Pikachu that belongs to Ash Ketchum of the Pokémon TV anime. Ash's Pikachu won't evolve because he likes himself just the way he is and prefers to stay that way rather than chage.

Why is your Pikachu refusing to evolve?
If this is the case, you're playing Pokemon Yellow. Yellow prevents the starter Pikachu from evolving due to following the anime, where Pikachu refuses to evolve (though it's possible to evolve it by trading it to another game, evolving it there, and trading it back to Yellow).
