Random: Every Pikachu Can Now Learn Surf In Pokemon Sword And Shield

If you are a longtime Pokemon fan, chances are you have at least heard of the Surfing Pikachu, a rare version of the regular Pikachu which knows the move Surf.

Although Surfing Pikachu have existed in the games as far back as Generation 1, they were often only distributed via events or were otherwise extremely difficult to acquire. For example, in Pokemon Ultra Sun/Moon, players had to earn the highest score in the Mantine Surf minigame in order to get a Surfing Pikachu.

However, this has all changed with Pokemon Sword & Shield, as any Pikachu can now learn Surf by using TR04, which can be obtained from Raid Battles. Unfortunately, this treatment does not seem to have extended to the Flying Pikachu, as Pikachu still cannot learn Fly via TM.

What do you think of this change? Let us know in the comments.
