The Pichu Brothers (individually Pichu Big and Pichu Little) are a pair of Pichu who live in Big Town. They were first introduced in the third mini-movie Pikachu & Pichu, where they met Ash's Pikachu who was lost after falling off a nearby building, in which Ash was planning a party celebrating the anniversary of when he and Pikachu first met. Pikachu and the Pichu Brothers went all throughout the town chased by a Houndour who eventually helped them when the local Pokémon Playhouse was collapsing.

Their next appearances were in another mini-movie, Camp Pikachu, and also the Pokémon Channel special episode Pichu Bros. in Party Panic as well as several Pokémon Chronicles episodes.

In Camp Pikachu, they had an adventure where they were lost a long way from home after a train ride. However, with the help of Pikachu, the rest of Ash's Pokémon, and a Wynaut, they were able to catch a train back home again.

In Pichu Bros. in Party Panic, Meowth was going to throw a party. However, the Pichu Brothers and their friends had not received an invitation and so they went on a quest to find one. In the end, an Azumarill had their invitations all along and hadn't gotten around to delivering them yet.

The Pichu Brothers made a small cameo at the beginning of Giratina and the Sky Warrior.
