Compare Pikachu's writing to a set of scribbles that just about form a letter.

Scanning Thoughts
Pikachu used to think that he could live a simple life of being with his trainer. He thought he could just travel with him even when his trainer spaced out alot since Hoenn. Now he knew the reason why.
Ever since that plane ride from Kalos to Kanto, every time he slept, Pikachu entered another world. A world without Pokemon and found Ash, a high schooler who thought his world was a dream. A part of his mind. Only that wasn't the case.
He was definitely real. Pikachu learnt that if you don't feel the pain, you're dreaming. The Pokemon felt the pain of running into an iron pipe days ago in the other world. He also knew that Ash was real in his world because his trainer did feel pain when he tried to punch James in the Viridian Forest the first time.
He was going to try and communicate with Ash when they reached Pallet town, somehow. He didn't think about Team Rocket who managed to drug him and knock him out until he got to a Pokecenter. During that time, Pikachu thought back to his escapades in the other world.
It only took him a few days there before having at least memorize half the school. That was enough for him. Pikachu started out light by making people feel tingly shocks. After that he short circuited a bunch of electronics in the computer lab. He then did a classic, shutting off the power to a classroom. Overloading the lights just right so they crackle and turn off instead of explode.
Earlier that day in the Poke-none world just before he could feed himself to a helping in the kitchen, he saw something that really shouldn't be here. A feather from Ho-oh, like the one when Ash first started out. Pikachu immediately went on guard. There was absolutely no way that could exist unless the owner itself is here.
That night Pikachu slept with one eye open. He was about to fall asleep when he looked at the window and saw the legendary of reincarnation flapping outside the dorm. Another feather glided gently into the room and onto Ash's bed.
After Pikachu awoke and was treated in the Pokecenter, he was left behind at the hotel to recover as Ash went to a local diner called Tauros Steak. His trainer promised to bring back some ketchup for him before leaving. When the door shut, Pikachu leapt towards his trainer's bag and pulled out a pen and paper to practice writing. Yes, writing.
After a few dozen sheets of wasted material, he finally managed to write somewhat cleanly. Hard to do when you don't have thumbs. Unfortunately Pikachu ran out of ink. He then had an idea, use the ketchup Ash will bring back to write with. With his priorities in place, the Pokemon cleaned the room as best as he could and went to the bed.
By the time Ash returned, Pikachu set his plan into motion. He went to his trainer and got his attention. It reminded Ash to give him his helping of ketchup. The packet had enough for his little project. Pikachu took one and ripped it open with his teeth. The Pokemon began squirting the condiment to forms letters.
Pikachu got his trainer's attention again while he was spacing out. When Ash focused his mind back into the world and looked at his starter, he paled.

Ash froze as he stared at the ketchup colored words. His brain rationalized that it's just a nightmare. Except it wasn't working, he knew that he is still in the Pokeworld and nothing is entering a horror filled environment other than the night.
Slowly Ash stood up and kept his eye on the paper, ignoring his Pokemon. He backed up to the wall and pressed his back against it. Pikachu scribbled with ketchup in another piece of paper as Ash inched his way to the door. The teen was about to grab the doorknob when he saw another message written in condiments.
"Dont run. I just want to know."
By this point, Ash didn't really know what to do. He's not waking up and forcing himself awake doesn't feel good at all. The teen sighed and decided to listen to what his Pokemon has to say. Well, what his starter is going to write.
"It's my real life Pikachu." Ash said. "How did you even know about it?"
Pikachu took some more ketchup as he made more words. Ash went against getting another Pokeball. Probably because he didn't know if they would spring a surprise like this on him. He looked at his starter's writing.
"I was there. Every time I sleep, I enter that world. My body should be on your bed."
Ash blinked. His Pokemon had been with him in the real world but didn't see him. His first friend in this world seemed to be under the same situation as him. Was Pikachu making it up he didn't know, only that he needed to confirm something.
"Were there any other Pokemon in my world?" If those Pokemon were invisible and causing trouble that would spell disaster with a dozen Absols.
Rather than writing, Pikachu moved to his bag and began digging through his things. It didn't take long for him to get an item from his bag. A glowing rainbow feather. Ash took a few milliseconds to figure out who Pikachu meant.
"Why is Ho-oh there? Better yet, why are Pokemon entering my world?" Ash asked the question of the day.
Pikachu shook his head. The mouse didn't really know the answer to that question other than legendaries. He wrote one last note before running out of ketchup.
"Sleep now. See you on the other side." Ash read the message as his starter cleaned up the mess. The teen quickly changed into his pajamas before landing on the bed with a soft thud. His starter falling asleep on the end of the bed.
"Maybe things will make more sense when I wake up." Ash murmured before allowing the darkness of the night take him. The trainer slept peacefully unaware of the events soon to come.
A man in a lab coat hurried to the meeting while holding a large stack of papers. He passed by several mini ecosystems made to replicate Pokémon habitats. He waved through a crowd of other researchers as everyone rushed to work.
The scientist went through an ornate door into a large meeting room. People in suits were busy talking to each other about finances, management and employees. A blonde woman at the end of the table wasn't talking but looking through several records presented by someone else.
Our researcher walked past the obnoxious noise of meetings towards the woman. She finished with whatever she's looking at in her laptop and noticed the man. The woman gestured for him to follow her as she got up from her seat.
Both of them walked out the door up the stairs. A bit of walking and they entered an elevator going down. When the doors closed, the woman discreetly pressed a hidden button, allowing access to a lower level. The method of transport went down, fast.
Eventually they reached the lower floors. The elevator opened and another scientist is seen. In front of the man is a cage, growls emanate from the container. The woman in the elevator tapped her foot.
"Faba, what is this?" The woman askedan asked as she tapped her feet impatiently. She was the owner of the foundation, which means she is quite busy.
"This is Project Beast Killer Madam President. An artificial Pokemon that can fight Ultra Beasts. However it's still incomplete as the system still doesn't seem to work as of yet. With your permission and enough funding, we will be able to complete it."
Our mystery woman bent down in front of the cage, examining the creature inside it. Roars came out from within the dark interior. She whispered something and the occupant lowered it's volume only slightly. The woman stood back up and turned to Faba.
"Give our, tenant better living conditions. When it is ready, you may send it to my son. He will know what to do with it."
"Yes Madam." Faba quickly pulled out his Aether issued Pokedex and called someone. "Yes, I need someone who can easily work with stubborn and violent Pokemon. Issue the job, yes, yes make the payment high. This is not the common rattata, we need an expert." The scientist quickly walked down a hallway as he continued to talk.
When you start getting steaming through trainers in Pokemon with a few moves, especially in Pokemon Reborn. You will get your ass kicked. It took me several tries to defeat Adrienn and i can say Fairies are murderous under that cute facade. Someone tell the douchebag called Lin to die already, that woman is worse than Fern. Also how is a Hydreigon supposed to legitimately kill an Alolan Ninetales unless you're level 100?
