Why Ash's Pikachu is Different
I think I figured it out why Ash's Pikachu is supposed to be different then other Pikachu. I saw a picture of a Shiny Pikachu and it was the same color as Ash's Pikachu. I think maybe Ash's Pikachu is a Shiny Pikachu.
|
1) Alternate colour Pokémon weren't in existence in the days of Gen I.
2) Alternate colour Pokémon are only distinguished by colour, and by nothing else, for example stats. |
Yeah I think it is just the difference in the sugimori art and the quality of the anime.
|
i still think Ash's Pikachu is a Shiny
|
I think it's just a really high level pikachu
|
..or you're on a wild Psyduck chase. Shiny Pikachus are, what, slightly more reddish (I cannot remember exactly)? Ash's looks like every other Pikachu...if it were shiny, then so would Richie's Pikachu and Ash (when he was turned into a Pikachu by Lily (?))...
|
Ash's Pikachu is that dark color and Richie's Pikachu is a lighter color then Ash's Pikachu

...obviously from SPP. Any disparity there in their colouration is slim... |
Erm, stolen from PE2K for the sake of goodness.

There was also no such thing in the first gen. |
Its certainly not shiny- shiny is like gold and ashs is certainly yellow from the pics ive seen.

we're all talking about the anime rite??
I dun believe shiny pikachu exists in the anime.. I think it may look different because it's just not the same as theothers...? like, for humans, we have different skin colours etc. |
And come on, as if the writers wanted to make Satoshi any more of a Gary Stu. Giving him an alternate colour Pokémon straight off the bat just defies all common sense.
|
Okay, ash's pikachu is special because it is Ash's pikachu, and he is the main character of the show...in the anime, IVs, stats, levels, all that stuff do not exist...srry...it's all about strategy, training, and strength...
|
Well, as somebody already said, shiny pokemon did not exist in Gen 1, so couldn't have featured in the first episode. There is one thing though - Ho-oh appeared in the first ep so they clearly had Gen 2 planned by then and could have had shinys thought of. BUT...Ash's Pikachu is not shiny. It is yellow. Not orange.
|
Ash's Pikachu isn't different. The only "Difference" was when it was being powered by a LOT of other Pikachu, and blew up the Pokecenter. Team Rocket just wants it because it did that, despite teh fact it had a ton of other pikachus helping it.
|
well, you all can think what you want to I think it's a Shiny, you believe what you want to believe and please just let me believe what I want to believe

Yeah Ash's pikachu is not a shiny...the shiny looks really orangey and Pikachu does not look orangy...
|
Note that Pikachu's colour gradually became lighter and eventually became the colour that it is today. They used a more solid yellow for Pikachu in its early days, mind. Shows the improving quality of the art now.
|
yea well you all are trying to say, that what you believe is right and and what i believe is wrong, saying over and over,'No it's not shiny' trying to convince me i'm wrong, when you have no proff of it
|
its called their OPINION they're just answering a question! And they have proof like the Suigomi Art and I gen no shiny and stuff.
|
Remember that near the end of Johto the animators switched from manual coloring to coloring with the computer.
If I compare the older episodes with recent episodes, not only Pikachu's colors look brighter, everything else too in the recent episodes. |
well i'm stating my opinion as well, and I believe Ash's Pikachu is shiny, and my opinion is final, no one can change it
|
Now, now.
If Konekodemon wants to believe that Ash's Pikachu is a shiny dispite all opinion and reasons stated by others, so be it. Let it rest. No need to get all worked up over. |
