In previous Pokemon Games, players could only obtain a Pikachu with the move of Surf by an Event of some sort (usually via Wi-Fi). However, in Pokemon Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon, a player actually receive a free Pikachu that knows the move Surf from the chairman of the Surfing Association (found in its given building in Heahea City). In order to obtain this very special Pikachu, a player must first score the high score in Mantine Surf on all four islands that make up The Alola Region.
