The bad news is that it only works for new s. If you've already been playing the game, you'll have to start over with a new Google or create a new Pokemon Trainer Club . If you don't mind starting over, follow these steps.

Install Pokemon Go for iOS
Sign up with a new Google or Pokemon Trainer Club .
Professor Willow will offer you a choice of three Pokemon - Squirtle, Charmander, and Bulbasaur. Ignore all three and walk away.
When you are sufficiently far from them, the same three Pokemon will spawn again near you. Ignore them again and walk away.
Repeat this step at least twice more and you'll notice that Pikachu has appeared alongside the aforementioned three Pokemon.
Tap on Pikachu, throw the Pokeball and catch it.

The number of times you need to walk away until Pikachu spawns varies. We tried this with two new s and once it appeared after we ignored the original three Pokemon four times and the other time it appeared after we ignored them five times. Just be patient and make sure you ignore the original Pokemon no matter how tempting it might be to start catching them.

There's a small chance that you'll find Pikachu in the wild but it is definitely not common. If you're really attached to it, then this method is probably your best bet to catch it.
