Whats so special about the pikachu you get in pokemon home?

I got pokemon home for the first time and i wanted to test it out. I saw a pikachu with a japanese nickname already put into one of the slots when i checked the home's box. It's not shiny or anything, and it doesnt seem to have any special moves/stats. Is there anything special about this pikachu other than the nickname?
