      It’s Pokemons mascot, the chosen one everyone’s supposed to love. Like big Nintendo is telling you to like the mouse!!! I mean I figured the joke would flow better. But frankly I don’t care for Pikachu unless it’s original chubby Pikachu.

      Thing is…

      If your favorite is Pikachu and you’re not a 5 year old watching the anime…

      It means you don’t actually know many Pokémon.

      I have many favorites. Two of mine are Vaporeon and Alolan Marowak.

        I can name all original 150 and quite a few new ones; Pikachu is still my favorite because of the TV series. My favorite game in the series is Yellow because you get him as a starter and he follows you on screen.

        This logic is nonsense.

          Not really now. I know it was an unwritten rule as a kid that your favorite couldn’t be Pikachu or you were the wuss who got bullied…

          Starting to think the people around me were toxic af now that I’m thinking back on it.

        Pikachu has has shown the most personality out of all the pokemon and that’s why people are attracted to him.

    But…I actually love pikachu and gaming. :(

    Specifically Ash’s pikachu, and no other, but still.

    Wait, does this mean Nintendo owes me money? Because I’ll accept.

      No, but here’s a lawsuit for saying trademarked fictional character’s name

        I’m so disappointed in myself that I can’t find a way to make the surprised pikachu meme an appropriate response to this.

        I cackled nonetheless.

      Same dude. My love for Ash’s Pikachu was cemented when, as a kid, I watched Pikachu tank a lightning bolt and save Ash from a swarm of Spearow. Such a great episode and a memory that kid me will never forget, an invaluable lesson about friendship and love.

      That episode made me beg my parents for Pokémon Red. Ha, and Pocket Pikachu now that I think about it - the Pokémon Tamagatchi.

    How do these paid shills for big Nintendo even get the job in the first place? Asking for a friend.
