So, Pikachu is going on and off of random symptoms. He was pooping lots, the colour of the poop changed, he got very aggressive, and the poop had a bad smell. Most people suggested a bacterial crop infection, so when I told my dad what was happening, he said that we'll talk about it, BUT then, every symptom went away?! His poop was normal and he was still a bit aggressive but pooping at normal speed. Do you know what happened?:confused:

What happened is.... his immune system did it's job! He fought the possible infection/sickness on his own and beat it. Hooray! Sounds like a minor infection is all.

A routine vet check (annually) is great for them to make sure everything is looking good and Pikachu is in tip top shape! Do you have a vet you can trust that is avian certified or works on exotics?

Well that's great! He did fight it off quickly then.
He's never been to a vet before but I did find this avian and exotics vet:
