Surf Pikachu/Raichu

[Aether Nexus]

This isn't a specific matter on them, so I'll post it in this section instead.

I'm just wondering how early I can teach Surf to Pikachu. I ask this because I'm going to restart my Yellow version and I'd like it if my Pikachu (or one I will trade in if the Yellow version cant learn it for some reason) gained Surf right away (at level 5). This will make my playthrough more fun and interesting.

Also, does it have to be the Yellow version one only or can it be any regular ol' Pikachu? And to be correct 100%, I don't obtain this Pikachu in Stadium; I take my own and it'll be taught Surf when I complete the task for it to obtain it, correct? Does anyone know how many times I can unlock it or is a one-time deal?

Since I mentioned it as well, does anyone know how many times I can unlock Amnesia Psyduck? Is that a one-time deal as well?

Edit: I also just realized you cant evolve the Pikachu in Yellow, can you? So I'm hoping I can put in a Pikachu from my Red version then in this case. That way it can become a Raichu with Surf.

You need Stadium to get Surf Pikachu/Raichu. Basically, you need to use your starter Pikachu in every round of R2 Prime Cup Master Ball. I don't mean that Pikachu just has to be on your team - you MUST use it as one of the three Pokemon every battle.

So essentially, if you use something the lines of Pikachu/Mewtwo/something else, you're pretty much golden.

Any version, any level. Evolve Pikachu in Red or Blue.

Yeah, read it before. Just didn't say what level I could teach Surf, so I assumed any level, but asked here just in case. And as for Amnesia Psyduck -- only one throughout the whole game? I assume I would have to restart and re-enter all 151 into the HoF to obtain another one, correct? Or can I trick the game somehow to obtain another without restarting?

What about that Wigglytuff with Dizzy Punch?
