According to Pokedex entries, Raichu can release 100,000 volt-bursts of electricity, instantly downing foes several times its size. A Raichu's thunderbolt can instantly KO Strong Pokemon like a Powerful Dragonite.

Raichu's thunderbolts is also known to Instantly KO other Electric Type Pokemon, Like Pikachu, despite it being weak against them.

@frocharocha: You actually put Blastoise and Venusaur on that list? I dont agree at all. That's kinda stupid to be honest. I don't think any of your list can tank it with ease, only Golem because I think he is immune. Are you underestimating Raichu? Think about it. Pikachu has been shown to nearly one shot KO Pseudo Legendaries with his Thunderbolt. Raichu has a much more powerful Thunderbolt. Come on.

@anthp2000:This specific Raichu. Anime logic yes.

@tchallaisopness: Hmmm...Most legendaries like Zapdos come to mind. Ground types with immunity or pokemon with lightning rod.
Other than that, I don't think that if that hits there are many pokemon that can tank it with ease...

I mean, I honestly cant see most Legendaries tanking it without being bothered either. It's mostly electric immune pokemon that come to mind.

@tchallaisopness: I disagree. Legendaries will most likely tank it easily. They are legendaries for a reason. Anime logic.

@anthp2000: And according to Anime Logic, A Darkrai got beaten by a Sceptile.

Can you show some feats of Legendaries tanking strong attacks easily?

Because I can show you Pikachu stalemating/ Beating Legendaries

@tchallaisopness: Ash's PIS or not PIS pikachu is not that Raichu. That Raichu is certainly not stronger that Pikachu...

OP trying to powerscale Lt. Surge's Raichu off of Ash's Pikachu even though it lost to Pikachu and has nowhere near as impressive feats.

You need to remind that anime logic is different than game logic. You have for example, Elite 4 Siebold Blastoise, which tanked 1 Fire blast and multiple dragon claws then one shooted Alain Mega Charizard X with an Hydro pump.

On the anime it mostly depends on the skill of the trainer and the individual power of the Pokémo.

@juiceboks: It was beaten by speed, not power. Raichu's thunderbolt easily overpowered Pikachu's. Your theory is incorrect

@tchallaisopness: It's not a theory. You ignored the second part of my post and missed my overall point completely.

Was he tanking or using Counter? Because I wouldn't say using Counter is tanking.

@scouterv: Oh, yeah. It was using counter actually.
However a well trained Wobbuffet can easily tank it.

@tchallaisopness: that's because ash's pikachu when not nerfed as he was v raichu is indesputably the most powerful non legendary and would God stomp any raichu. Legendaries have tanked the Lightning of dozens of Pokemon at once for several minutes

@kbroskywalker: Sorry to tell you this, but your Pokemon knowledge is terrible.

Ash had Pikachu FOR 16 OR SO EPISODES before it fought Raichu. It didn't stand a chance in the power department which is why Ash had to use speed.

It wasn't nerfed, it wasn't trained enough. Just stop trying dude.
