The Adventure Begins: Game Story
One day, Pikachu is playing with his friends Charmander, Chikorita, and Piplup. Suddenly, they are all sent to a special place called the PokéPark! Here, the amazing Mythical Pokémon Mew tells them some bad news. The Sky Prism, which protects the entire park, has broken into 14 pieces. These pieces are now missing!
Pikachu, along with his friends, starts a big adventure to find all the missing Sky Prism pieces. The PokéPark is huge, with many different areas like meadows and even lava zones. As Pikachu explores, he meets and makes friends with many other Pokémon. These new friends can help Pikachu by using their special abilities.
Finding Sky Prism Pieces
To get the Sky Prism pieces, Pikachu needs to complete various challenges and attractions around the park. When you finish an attraction, you'll earn a piece of the Sky Prism. Once Pikachu has collected all 14 pieces, there's one final challenge. He must play a tough game of obstacle hop with Mew. After that, he has to battle Mew and then play a game of chase. Once all these challenges are done, everything in the PokéPark goes back to being friendly and peaceful.
Pikachu's Special Moves
In battles, Pikachu has some cool moves he can use. He can use his powerful Thunderbolt attack. He can also use Dash to quickly move around. Later in the game, he learns Iron Tail.
