        The following chart shows Mega Raichu Y's DPS and TDO for every fast and charged attack combination. This chart is useful for comparing the relative strength of Mega Raichu Y's movesets. You can change the weather and the opposing Pokémon to see how it affects the rankings.

        Legacy Elite Fast and Charged Attacks can only be obtained during special events, or by using an Elite Fast TM or an Elite Charged TM. Legacy moves are marked with an asterisk (*). The table above provides information on different moves Mega Raichu Y has in Pokémon GO, along with their corresponding DPS (Damage per Second) and TDO (Total Damage Output).

        PvE AnalysisPvE Analysis

        Recommended moves

        Mega Raichu Y gives you the ultimate reason to evolve high IV Pikachu as it becomes the #1 Electric-type attacker right on its debut. An explosive ATK of 339 helps Mega Raichu Y surpass Thunder Cage Regieleki with the typical moveset of Thunder Shock and Wild Charge, dealing 7.7% more damage. But that's not all, as Mega Raichu Y is bulkier than Regieleki (even though it is a glass cannon itself) and more importantly, boosts the damage output of all its teammates in a Raid battle courtesy of being a Mega Evolution.

        Mega Raichu Y is undoubtedly one of the most valuable Megas added to Pokémon GO in recent times, but you have to keep in mind that it is quite fragile and dodging is mandatory for optimal usage in combat.

        Fast Attack

        The best part is that Thunder Shock is a 0.5s Fast Attack, making it easy to dodge with Mega Raichu Y and blast the Raid Boss with quick successions of Wild Charge.

        Charged Attack

        Consider adding Thunder Punch as a second Charged Attack as in the occasions when Mega Raichu Y is about to faint and not in a position to fire off a Wild Charge, the 3-bar Thunder Punch comes to the rescue and helps this powerful attacker chip in some near damage before bidding adieu.

        Is Mega Raichu Y future proof as an Electric-type attacker?

        Technically, no, as Mega Zeraora will take the throne off Mega Raichu Y with 27% more damage. However, there's a crucial detail here. Zeraora is a Mythical Pokémon, so due its extremely limited accessibility, it's very challenging and expensive to farm Zeraora Candy and power it up.

        On the other hand, with Pikachu’s wide availability including the frequent costume versions, many trainers are already brimming with Pikachu Candy. Moreover, it is way cheaper and easier to power up Raichu, also considering that its Buddy distance is only 1 km.

        So while Mega Zeraora will top the Electric-type charts down the line, investing in a Mega Raichu Y is a safe, easy, and rewarding decision that makes it one of the best Pokémon to have in your team. As such, in a practical sense, it is highly recommended to power up and even max out a Mega Raichu Y, especially since it will remain a phenomenal attacker even years from now! ⚡

        Electric Electric

        Pokédex informationMore information

        Mega and Primal Raid BonusMega Pokémon boost the attack power of all other Pokémon when battling in Raid Battles by 10%. Attacks that share their type with the Mega Pokémon's type(s) receive a 30% boost. However, these bonuses do not stack if there are multiple Mega-Evolved Pokémon battling simultaneously; only the higher boost will be applied.

        Mega and Primal Catch BonusWhile a Pokémon is Mega-Evolved, additional XP and Candy is granted when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it, or for any raid boss caught. These do not stack with each other. Additionally, High and Max Level Mega-Evolved Pokémon grant an increased chance to obtain Candy XL when catching a Pokémon that shares a type with it.

        Note on Primal Kyogre, Primal Groudon, and Mega Rayquaza
        • Primal Kyogre boosts Water-, Electric- and Bug-type attacks and Pokémon.
        • Primal Groudon boosts Fire-, Grass- and Ground-type attacks and Pokémon.

                Catch probability with multiple throws

                In order to help Trainers understand their overall odds when catching Mega Raichu Y, we enable the functionality to showing the total chance to catch it depending on the number of available throws. We calculate this chance as if you repeated the same throw N-number of times.

                To activate this functionality, change the number of Number of throws to a value greater than 1. The Number of throws option is available in the configuration options above the chart

                Catch rate formula

                Pokémon GO catch rate formula can be expressed as follows:

                • CATCH_MULTIPLIERS = ball * curve * berry * throwType * (type1Medal + type2Medal / 2)
                • CATCH_RATE = 1 - Math.pow(1 - baseCatchRate / (2 * cpm), CATCH_MULTIPLIERS)

                There are different multipliers that come into play when calculating catch rate.

                Curved throws are more effective than regular throws, stronger types of Poké Ball have a higher catch rate, and using a Razz Berry or a Golden Razz Berry also improves your chances.
