Why Doesn't Pikachu Evolve?

Which stage of Pikachu do you like the most?
TapTap
We all know that Ash's Pikachu has never evolved into Raichu, but why? Regarding this question, the official answer has been given twice through the animation.
The first time was when Ash challenged the Vermilion City Gym Leader's Raichu with his Pikachu. Pikachu was badly injured and sent to the hospital. Nurse Joy gave Ash a Thunder Stone to help Pikachu evolve, but Ash decided to let Pikachu make the decision on its own. In the end, Pikachu chose to prove itself in its own way by not evolving and defeated Raichu.

The second time was when Ash met a trainer on the road and still used Pikachu to fight against the opponent's Raichu. Pikachu was defeated again, but it still chose to be itself and fight, using its identity as Pikachu to win the battle.

Finally, I would like to ask everyone, is evolution always a good thing for Pokémon? According to what I have learned from Satoshi Tajiri's "The Animation", there is a description of Pikachu evolving into Raichu. After evolving, Pikachu may occasionally release more than 100,000 volts of electricity, which can cause it to be electrocuted and even lead to cardiac arrest. Even if its life is saved, it may also cause psychological problems - Raichu begins to fear electricity. It can be imagined how tragic the result would be when a Pokémon that relies on electricity for combat fears electricity. Therefore, evolved Pokémon may not be able to control their abilities, leading to various problems.

In my opinion, whether evolution is good or not depends on the timing of evolution. Trainers need to have a precise understanding of the overall condition of their Pokémon,s mainly by making evaluations and judging whether their Pokémon can control their evolved abilities well. Only in this way can the negative effects caused by the loss of control over the evolution ability of Pokémon be minimized.

The main reason is that Pikachu is the most iconic, must known pokemon to date and Raichu while having its charisma its nowhere near to that of Pikachu, they did the right thing by adding the necessity of the stone and the will to evolve. In the most recent anime: Pokemon Horizons, The pokemon company goes deeper into evolution. It happens in very specific moments when it is needed to fullfill a desire the Pokemon has or as a result of a constant practice the Pokemon does with a passion. In one episode it is said Mankey evolves into Annihilape when holding and acting from constant rage, being the emotion of rage what triggers the evolution. In that same episode Hatenna evolves into Hattrem from her desire of stopping the monkeys from fighting. In a more recent episode Quaxly evolves into Quaxwell because he been practicing footwork and mimicking the other pokemon moves to a point and a passion that triggers the evolution. The above examples serve to show how the pokemon company is shifting evolutions towards triggering events after the pokemon pursues a dream or necessity, it happens from desires that been gestating and culminate with evolution, this way Pokemon don't have to learn to use their abilities but rather is practicing the new abilities before evolving and acting in a way that demands the evolution what triggers it

Pokemon: Yellow Version - A Nostalgic Look into the Past
Pokémon: Yellow Version — often referred to as *Pokémon Yellow: Special Pikachu Edition* — is a revered classic in the Pokémon franchise, released for the Game Boy in 1998. Its unique features and improvements over the original *Pokémon Red* and *Blue* versions make it a standout title that has garnered much praise from fans and critics alike. Pikachu as a Central Character One of the most notable features of Pokémon Yellow is its focus on Pikachu, mirroring the Pokémon anime's success at the time. Unlike other versions, the player starts with Pikachu as their starter Pokémon, and Pikachu follows the player around in the overworld, rather than being confined to its Poké Ball. This innovative mechanic was a significant leap forward in terms of player-Pokémon interaction.
