You can, however only in the safari zone in 3rd generation games, and even then they are very rare. Any pikachu in the 4th generation games has a chance of holding a light ball. I have no informaiton regarding the 2nd generation games, however there would be no point in having one in the 1st generation, as there was no breeding then.
Some do in the safari zone if you catch one with it and breed it it's pichu will have a strong atack called volt tackle
Pichu can hold a light ball but it might not have any effect unless you level up your pichu into pikachu,then it will work 100% Shift+5
One of the parents must hold the light ball.
It is very rare, but yes, they can hold that item in the wild.
breed pikachu or richu with ditto or another pikachu/richu. if its a female pikachu or richu, make it hold a light ball and the bred pichu knows volt tackle.
Volt Tackle is an egg move for pichu that can be learned by having the mother of the pichu (must be a pikachu or raichu) hold a Light Ball while it is in the daycare.
pichu when pickchu mates with another fariy group and hold light ball
IDK But THis Is How I Got It Find A pikachu Or pichu That Holds A light Ball ( 5% Chance it Will Have it )
Breed Pikachu with Light Ball to get Pichu with volt tackle you can also interact in Ilex Forest
Here's how you get volt tackle: Breed two pikachu have one hold the light ball hatch the egg as long as the pikachu doesn't have TM moves the pichu should have learned volt tackle. Simply train pichu to evolve it to pikachu that way you can have a pikachu with volt tackle.
its an egg move so it knows it as soon as it hatches, but the pikachu must hold a light ball.... hope that helps
A light ball isn't a type of pokeball it's a rare hold item for pikachu. give it to a pikachu then put it in a daycare center with a ditto and when there is an egg hatch it and the pichu you hatched should learn volt tackle.
wild pikachu and pichu carry them sometime. you have a better chance of finding one if a reporter talks about a pikachu and its light ball.
a light ball is a hold item that you can get from a pikachu. It is really rare to catch a pikachu holding a light ball. If you caught a pikachu with a light ball in emerald/sapphire/ruby you can breed it with another pikachu, then the Pokemon egg you get is a pichu that knows how to use Volt Tackle. Volt Tackle is a move that causes a high damage but it has a recoil damage too.
