Yep, of course; I have been a fan since day one, and still am.
I've liked this Pokémon ever since I was introduced to anime a long, long time ago; in every possible way, I found it to be cute. It's small, its color-scheme is bright and vibrant (which, I believe, had done a nice job appealing to my younger self), talks in an adorable way, and much more; who wouldn't like it? Not only this, but Pikachu has been a part of almost each and every episode as well, causing it to become even more... up-front, so to speak.
In terms of battling and whatnot, it's not so bad, either; it's pretty quick, and could learn some decent moves alongside. If given the opportunity, it could make a great member for almost any of your in-game team. I've used it a couple of times before, and thankfully, it has always seemed to have impressed. I've heard it's also good on competitive side with Light Ball strategy, but unfortunately, I've never tried it. Will at some point in future, however!
