XY and ORAS breeding mechanics are virtually the same, so this should answer your question.

In order to get a Pikachu with Volt Tackle either parents of the baby pichu have to be holding a light Ball. EX: A Male Pikachu holding a light ball breeding with ditto will produce a pichu with volt tackle.

wait so i need a diito?
sorry im new to breeding
Not necessarily, as long as the other parent is capable of breeding with the pikachu evo line you can get a pichu. The key to the hatching pichu to have volt tackle is for one of the parents to be holding the light ball.

The only way to get a Pichu with Volt Tackle is through breeding, and it's only available in the Pikachu/Raichu line.
You'll need 2 Pikachu/Raichu (opposite gender with each other), have one of them holding a Light Ball, then put them in the Day-Care that supports raising 2 Pokemon (games from Gen 3 onward have a Pokemon Day-Care that can take care up to 2 Pokemon, but some of those games have its feature available in the post-game).
