Pika/Personality and characteristics

Pika was initially shown as hostile, stubborn, and unfriendly. It took until risked his own safety to protect Pika from Brock's Onix that Pika began to open up to Red. After opening up Pika became one of his closest teammates and is willing to do almost anything for him. On both occasions that he was separated from Red he showed great concern and went to extremes to try and save him. Although more friendly, Pika stills retains some of his aloof personality and will greet others by shocking them. Pika also cares greatly for his mate, Chuchu, and his son, Pibu, and will lose his composure if either of them is in danger. With his tail, Pika can use it like a radar to sense others.
