2nd Gen Did you let Pikachu evolve?

[BeatTheSpecialStage]

As you may or may not know, In Pokemon Yellow if you tried to give Pikachu a Thunder Stone then it would deny it. However if you traded it to a different game and tried it, it would work, and it would no longer follow you. Did you make it evolve? I didn't.

 

[Swift!]

I wanted to, but I couldn't.
I didn't have the right accessories to trade it.

 

[FalseSwipe]

I did

Raichu is my second favorite behind Scyther

 

[Limey-chan]

I wanted to so badly but couldn't :(

I've evolved Pikachu on every version i've ever played with the exception of yellow.

 

[BHwolfgang]

I didn't. I like it when the little, yellow critter follow me around. =)

 

[BREAKINGBEN]

I didn't evolve Pikachu. By the time I got to the Elite Four, I think I had a level 40-something Pikachu following me around ^.^... good times.

 

[FastTonyDeNiro]

Nope, I've never evolved Pikachu in any game. That's mostly because I've never actually used one in my party in any game besides yellow, which I didn't finish.

I've had a Raichu on my team before, but it was a wild one I caught in the Mystery Cave.

I didn't evolve pikachu, I liked it when it follow me around^^

 

[BHwolfgang]

It brings a nolstalgic feeling, doesn't it? ... Whenever the Pikachu follows you...?

 

[BeatTheSpecialStage]

Plus evolving Pikachu meant you'd miss out on alot of "cutscenes" where Pikachu would react to something in the background ^_^

 

[OokamiShipper]

You're talking about Pikachu in Yellow, right?
Yeah, I didn't evolve it, it's so cute! It follows you around!
And it makes me feel like Red or Yellow being followed by Pika. xD

 

[Akeraz]

I didn't evolve it. Instead, I threw it away in my box for the whole game.

 

[.:Kanto:.]

Just bought Pokémon Yellow, and I actually like Pikachu following me around. It's pretty interesting to see how Pikachu reacts to different things hehe :P

 

[Fusktacular Frizzlee]

i wanted to evolve it but sadly i couldnt trade

 

[Chuchan]

No I didnt evolve my Pika. It was just too cute ^^.

 

[machomuu]

No, I love my Pikachu, couldn't bear letting it evolve :).

 

[Pechachu]

I never evolved him, I didn't want to miss out on him following me around. D:
Though.. If memory serves, I think I traded him over to Gold in the end. He was holding some power up item I had never seen, and I was like "sweet : D".

 

[laxen]

well i have "finished" the game like 20 times and only evolved pikachu like 3 times but i took evry chance i got, Raichu FTFW

 

[PokemonBroski]

I never evolved Pikachu
but I heard in pokemon yellow, after you beat the Elite 4 that Pikachu would evolve

Exactly. :D
Even if I had a trading cable and another GameBoy, I wouldn't have evolved it.
