Plusle
| Number: | Type: | Does not evolve |
Plusle (プラスル, Purasuru?, Prasle), known as the Cheering Pokémon, bears a remarkable resemblance to Pichu and Pikachu. Plusle have short tails with flat red plus signs on the end of them, while their cheeks are circular with plus signs voided in the middle. Plusle creates electrical pom-poms and sparks to cheer on its partners. Plusle's abilities in battle are basically the same as its cousin Pikachu except that Plusle has more Special Attack power than Pikachu and is slightly faster. However, Plusle is unable to use moves such as Volt Tackle and Slam. On the other hand, Plusle learns more support moves than Pikachu, such as Baton Pass, Fake Tears, and Copycat. Plusle is a cheerful and supportive Pokémon, always encouraging comrades in battle by using the spark pouches in its cheeks. It is very compassionate towards its friends, and is known to cry upon witnessing a friend lose a battle. They are commonly referred to as cheerleaders for these actions.
