Spiky-eared Pichu (Japanese: ギザみみピチュー Gizamimi Pichu) is a female Pichu. Her physical appearance is no different from an ordinary Pichu, other than the three spikes at the tip of her left ear, hence her name. She is very fond of Grepa Berries.
In the anime
The Spiky-eared Pichu appeared in the movie Arceus and the Jewel of Life. In the movie, she gives her friend, Damos, the keys to his cell after he has been imprisoned by Gishin.
She was first mentioned at the end of a movie preview when movie director Kunihiko Yuyama talked about a "small, yellow Electric-type that would save the world." Then a short clip showed her playing with Pikachu, but she was blocked by a big circle, and all that could be seen were the "notches" on her ear. The same scene was shown again at the end of the official trailer and she was fully visible.
In the games
She appears in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver as an event Pokémon obtained in Ilex Forest. She will appear and join the player's party if the Pikachu-colored Pichu is brought to the shrine as the first Pokémon in the party. She has her own unique in-battle and overworld sprites and cannot evolve or be traded outside of HeartGold and SoulSilver. Aside from her unique sprite, moves, and inability to be traded or evolve, she is identical to a normal Pichu in terms of stats. Spiky-eared Pichu cannot learn any moves besides the four she is obtained with, via any method, including level-up. She, like other Pokémon, can also be Template:Shiny2. Her maximum stats for the Pokéthlon are different from a regular Pichu. Interestingly, however, her base stats do not differ from a normal Pichu's, which occurs with all other Pokémon whose Pokéthlon stats differ between forms. If a Pokémon uses Transform on it, it will have a spiky ear.
If taken to Professor Elm, it is revealed that she has traveled through time with Celebi. Elm claims that he and Professor Oak were researching the time travel abilities of Celebi, and claims that this Pichu proves his main theory. He adds that the reason it cannot evolve is because it has been time traveling for so long. He will then call all the Pokémon Center attendants to prevent Spiky-eared Pichu from being used in trades.
