Gorochu Stat Block

</div>

## Gorochu

> Gorochu was intended to be an evolution to Raichu in Generation 1. However, for a number of reasons it did not make it to the final cut. It is considered a Beta Pokemon since it was never truly finished. With the information I could find on the Internet and the help of @JOEtheDM's Poke5E Monster Manual and PHB, I was able to patch together what a potential stat block for this Pokemon would look like along with some lore.

### God of Thunder
“Its name was Gorochu. It had fangs and horns and looked like a god of thunder.” That’s how Atsuko Nishida first revealed an evolved form of Raichu had been cut from the first generation of Pokemon games... “Chu” is the squeak sound a mouse makes in Japanese... “Goro” is the sound of thunder. -[Lava Cut Content](http://lavacutcontent.com/gorochu-developer-interviews-leak/ "Gorochu: Developer Translations and the 2019 Leak")
### Evolution
Gorochu evolves from Raichu starting at level 12 and above only during a thunderstorm. When it evolves, its health increases by double its level, and it gains 12 points to add to its ability scores.
