Still, this might be 'use electricity on Kamoho', and he didn't want that. "You! stand behind me, In the trees!"

"You step back too, Kamoho." And with that, Mordecai released Pa'ao in front of him. "Hold on, Pa'ao. Let's see how the pikachu reacts."

Ordering the mankey to stand in the trees just behind mordecai, sending out Pa'ao right in front of him, and then waiting!
The Pikachu's eyes follow the remaining Mankey as it shuffles behind you. Clearly, this battle is not yet over to the pokemon that was recently ambushed.

The Pikachu walks up to you, ignoring the new mole pokemon on the field and not giving the blue one a second thought. Some electricity cackling through its cheeks, the Pikachu looks at you, past you to the Mankey behind you, and back at you again. No words are needed, the message is clear: Let me at him.
