Did you let Pikachu evolve?
 
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! March 5th, 2009 4:57 PM

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

FalseSwipe March 5th, 2009 5:07 PM

I did

Raichu is my second favorite behind Scyther

Limey-chan March 5th, 2009 5:36 PM

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 March 5th, 2009 5:42 PM

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

BREAKINGBEN March 5th, 2009 6:03 PM

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 March 6th, 2009 12:15 AM

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 March 6th, 2009 5:32 PM

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

BeatTheSpecialStage March 6th, 2009 6:19 PM

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

OokamiShipper March 6th, 2009 6:20 PM

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 March 7th, 2009 2:21 AM

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

.:Kanto:. March 7th, 2009 2:34 AM

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 March 7th, 2009 3:44 AM

i wanted to evolve it but sadly i couldnt trade

Chuchan March 7th, 2009 4:35 AM

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

machomuu March 7th, 2009 5:34 AM

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

Pechachu March 7th, 2009 6:12 AM

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 March 7th, 2009 6:07 PM

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 March 7th, 2009 6:24 PM

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

xxCelebi March 7th, 2009 6:55 PM

I didn't evolve it. I want Pikachu to follow me around. I love its reactions, as many people have stated before.
^.^

thedestinedblade March 7th, 2009 7:11 PM

Never had the opportunity to, but even if I did I wouldn't bother. After awhile I'd send Pikachu off to the pc box.

Lila March 7th, 2009 7:58 PM

I've always disliked Pikachu and Raichu, so he was always put inside of the PC to rot after I got Bulbasaur. :P I actually never liked the Yellow version for some reason, probably because of Pikachu, lol.

PSM March 8th, 2009 10:06 AM

I've never evolved Pikachu in any game. In yellow, I loved that game so much because of that thing following me around. Now that i read the Manga, i will never evolve Pikachu in any game, because I end up naming the thing Pika or ChuChu(Pika if it's a boy, ChuChu if girl) and it doesn't feel right to look at a Raichu named Pika. (I never change the names of my pokemon >_>) But I love that Yellow Mouse o death =D

kyoisorange March 8th, 2009 11:17 AM

Nah, not in Yellow, but when I caught him in D/P I let him evolve to Raichu.
