The electricity-lacking Pikachu in Pokémon Pokopia is called Peakychu.
Peakychu is one of the game’s special Pokémon characters encountered as the player restores habitats. Unlike an ordinary Pikachu, Peakychu has lost the ability to generate electricity, giving the character a specific personal problem within Pokopia’s broader story of damaged environments and displaced Pokémon.
The nickname is a wordplay variation on “Pikachu,” making it distinct from the species name. This is important because the game includes many recognizable Pokémon alongside named individuals with their own roles, personalities, and circumstances.
Peakychu can be confused with Pikachu variants from other Pokémon media, such as costume or regional designs. In Pokopia, the defining detail is not a costume or alternate form but the character’s lost electrical ability.
