I really don't like Pikachu because its so annoying at times. Its everywhere


:t354:TG

innuendo August 22nd, 2007 3:02 PM

I don't like him.
I chose 3 option.

J.M. August 22nd, 2007 3:58 PM

I think he's alright... not my favourite Pokemon but certainly not the worst

Besides, it would be hard to imagine the TV show without him

QuizMaster August 22nd, 2007 4:39 PM

Pikachu is just the cutest little Pokemon. Many he is a little cliched by now, but so what? He's also very loyal and brave.

J-Rad August 22nd, 2007 4:55 PM

I don't really like pikachu. It is a lot better as raichu and I hate how in yellow u couldn't evolve it.

Sweet Candace August 22nd, 2007 5:19 PM

Some people are just jealous that Pikachu's one of the main fixtures in the anime IMO

That would seriously mess up the anime, if Pikachu didn't exist, the anime wouldn't exist, cakekun, I don't care about Salamnece, beacuse Ash doesn't deserve one

PoisonOwnzYou August 23rd, 2007 6:53 AM

OK..the anime makes Ash look like a total idiot.

1.He's had 3 chances to let Pikachu evolve, and he doesn't, because a little yellow rat told him not to.

2.There is a reason why on 2 occasions, a Raichu overcame Pikachu..BECAUSE RAICHU IS A BETTER POKEMON!

Shiraishi August 23rd, 2007 7:00 AM

The anime could exist. They kill off this story after sinnoh and make a new more mature with a plot(by they I mean nintendo)Will they make money? HELL YES.

How about this, NO !

sims796 August 23rd, 2007 7:15 AM

Meh, its alright, I guess. I don't like Ash's GODLY Pikachu. Can take out a Dragonite, but can't fight a measily Elekid? And how many times can he lose Pika to Team Rocket, because he can't see though their stupid disguises. Seriously, they aren't even trying to wear a disguise, but he can't see A TALKING MEOTH, A GUY WITH THE SAME VOICE, AND THAT DAMN LOOONG RED HAIR?!?!

WE SHOULD B FRIENDS!

I'll explain.
About 8 years ago they used to sell these little Pokeballs with figures in them. Our mum used to buy them for us and we got to pick one. Every single time I always had a Pikachu!
So by the end of it, while my sisters had Bulbasaurs and Charmeleons, I was stuck with six ugly looking Pikachus.

Another reason. He's in every almost single episode! I loved the oldie episodes, but now that yellow rodent is annoying me. It leaves lack of creativity on Team Rockets schemes which just makes the show in all very laborious.

We now take the micky out of Pikachu by imagining what it sound like with a german accent. Sorry Pikachu lovers, I just hate it. Simple.

yay. (german accent, FUNNY! i like pple w/ german accents! yeh, thats rite, im talkin 2 u ben and max! (twins in my math class w/ german acccents!) :)

Personally, I like Pikachu, but I think he deserves a new owner. Ash is just so klutsy, and makes so many mistakes. You wouldn't except a Trainer like Ash to make those types of mistakes. Maybe from a rookie just starting out, but a Trainer like Ash

the ash part is good, but pikachu made me hate him, and ALMOST made me stop watching the animes. and 2 answer ur question, his pikachu evolving would NESSISARLY b the end of the anime, ya no. i think they should make a seperate anime were the main charactor is a girl and starts out w/ eevee or clefairy. ne1 agree w/ me?

IM THE QUOTE MASTER! peace out, dawgs! <3

Rainfall August 23rd, 2007 2:09 PM

He's okay, I guess...Raichu is better, in my opinion.

Omerta August 23rd, 2007 3:11 PM

It's alright, not my fav, but it's ok.

The Overlord August 23rd, 2007 6:21 PM

Although I don't specifically Hate any Pokemon, Pikachu is on the least likeable with Luvdisc.x3

Akon August 23rd, 2007 8:36 PM

pikachus cool man. hands down.

can we b friends? u like raichu more than pikachu, and u were 1 of the few who gave me sympathy when i told my suicide story. neways, besides the point...

I HATE PIKACHU!!! :badsmile:

Sweet Candace August 24th, 2007 1:31 PM

How would Pikachu react to being with a Trainer like:

Brock ?
Dawn ?
May ?
Max ?

Please answer this question, beacuse Ash doesn't deserve Pikachu !

♥~*Abby*~♥ August 24th, 2007 1:44 PM

mayb max should have him as his 1st pokemon. then, pikachu can evolve.

LYKE, MAJOR YAY!

Sweet Candace August 24th, 2007 1:47 PM

Probably Pika won't let Max evolve it, and he'll keep Pika the same. The same result will happen if Pikachu was Brock's, Dawn's or May's. Pikachu doesn't want to evovle beacuse it wants to prove a Pikachu can be a very powerful Pokemon !

♥~*Abby*~♥ August 24th, 2007 2:25 PM

and then, when it relized it just cant prove that, itll evolve, and me and lt. surge (<3) will have a party! :D

No, you aren't. The Quote Master is somebody much older then you are who reviews fanfics on occasion. You aren't worthy to learn his name. *Snerk*

Yes, Raichuchika, we have established the fact that you hate Pikachu. *sighs* Really, people, do you have to bad-mouth him just because you don't like him?

Pikachu evolving wouldn't necessarily end the anime, but it would be a major blow to it. If Pikachu, somebody who is just as much a main character as Ash is, were to be cut out of the show at this point it would change the entire direction of the series and the themes it embodies. The anime would no longer be "Pokemon" as we know it now. I say that if we're going to do that, let's just make a spin-off series with a completely different main character and end it there. Ash and Pikachu are going to be around for a while, and like it or not, there's nothing we can do about it.

Dawnfanboy, I take it that you're one of those people who rants at Ash for the reason that you think he's some sort of idiot. He isn't. Ash is a stereotypic shonen hero, his main virtues being the value of friendship, courage, and a determination to win no matter what the odds. He's a stereotype, yes, but he's a time-honored one who often appears in shonen anime. (Naruto and Dragon Ball immediately spring to mind). With that in mind, there's no reason why he shouldn't "deserve" Pikachu. And Ash and Pikachu are best friends at this point. If Pikachu ended up with another character for an extended period, he'd tolerate it but given the choice he'd always return to Ash. (Let's not forget about Viridian Forest)

I'm going to say it once: I like Pikachu because to me he represents innocence, but also a determination to fight for those around him's safety. He's a strong, very vivid character and, let's face it, he's cute as the dickens.

And you all who hate him do so why? Because he's marketable? Because Raichu looks cooler? Because he won't evolve? Blame that on the writing staff, not the character! Pikachu is innocent of all wrongdoing in these circumstances. So other Pokemon are cooler. BIG DEAL. Just because you like Raichu better doesn't mean that Pikachu is automatically the antichrist.

Okay, I think I'm done ranting now.

Edit: And to all you people who've made obscene and/or offensive statements thus far in this thread which nobody really needs to be filling their minds with: Get your heads out of the gutter.

Maybe if they based the anime off the manga, it would definately be the cooliest. I mean come on, in the manga Lance destroys Vermillion with a hyper beam in front of everyone and walks off. How cool is that?!
