I thought Pikachu was only overrated back in the late 90's and early 2000's. Nowadays, too many people hate it because they think it's still overrated like before. (At least, from the census I've taken, haha.)

I'd still say Pikachu is popular, I mean it does gets a unique cry in X&Y.

Meadow March 30th, 2015 1:16 PM

Maybe it still is popular, but definitely not to the point of overratedness anymore. xD

If a Pokémon like Pikachu is still considered worthy of getting something exclusive in a game like the cosplay Pikachu then I'd certainly say that counts as overrated XD

I think since competitive play has come about, more of the stronger Pokémon such as Lucario have taken over. 8)

I thinks it is not overrated, Most people who are really into pokemon don't have Pikachu as their favourite pokemon and know Pikachu isn't the strongest pokemon of them all. However everyone who has heard of pokemon knows about pikachu.. Even if I mention pokemon to my parents my mom says "Pika-pika pikachu", Everyone remembers pikachu and it is very nostalgia for most people.

Pokemon pushes Pikachu in our faces with "Look how cute/cool/though/clever/beautiful Pikachu is. He is the best, and remember "you want to be the very best..." everyone must love pikachu! Pikachu! Pikachu!" <<< I think that's the annoying part about pikachu...

Sorry Pikachu but if people compare Dedenne to you i cant like you :p
Oh and i i dont think its overrated but im kinda sick of it being the star of pokemon haha

Meadow March 30th, 2015 2:11 PM

Well, putting all of that mascot stuff behind, I actually like Pikachu (in itself) from an unbiased point of view.

Dedenne1 March 30th, 2015 2:14 PM

The question is could you find it in your heart to make Pikachu evolve into raichu just for the power?

Meadow March 30th, 2015 2:18 PM

19.

Nope, haha. I don't even use it competitively, so I wouldn't bother evolving it. xD

Dedenne1 March 30th, 2015 2:25 PM

Hmm the other post was invalid dang it
Anyways i couldn't haha

Squirrel March 30th, 2015 2:29 PM

I'd evolve it for the power AND the cuteness - Raichu is 500x cuter than Pikachu :D

Meadow March 30th, 2015 2:31 PM

18.

Not in my book. Pikachu is wayyy cuter. x3

Sheep March 30th, 2015 2:31 PM

omg guys, why!

Pikachu is a cutie pie. I love the electric rodents, too. ;3; It's not the strongest but is a pretty fitting mascot for Pokemon.. though I'd rather have Eevee as it fits better with how many different types it can evolve into. Great association with Pokemon since part of the appeal is evolving and training various types.

20. SAVED

Well I'm part of the Pikachu club, so... no argument there, haha. (I better not get ninja'd)

And yeah, Pikachu's better off not being the mascot. It gets tooooo much hate that way. -__-

Raichu~

Raichu really needs to get more love from the show/games. Yes, Pikachu and Pichu are adorable, but so is Raichu. It needs to be seen more often!

I do wonder how things would have been for Pokemon in general if they had kept with Clefairy for the mascot.

Dedenne1 March 30th, 2015 5:34 PM

Never loved raichu especially Lt. surges in the anime. Also it lost a lot of cuteness from Pikachu haha but still the line has never been one of my favs. Long live dedenne!

Squirrel March 30th, 2015 5:57 PM

I absolutely adore Raichu, it's such a cute and friendly creature which looks so huggable and wonderful ♥

alisaie March 30th, 2015 9:37 PM

Yes good Pikachu was saved. ♥ And Raichu I totally adore Raichu too so definitely going up for Raichu!

Raichu falls under the not-so-fascinating evolution category. I prefer Pikachu as it is...

blue March 31st, 2015 2:47 AM

I quite like Raichu, not as much as Pikachu but yeah.

Precious~Dark March 31st, 2015 3:03 AM

Raichu is cute ^-^

Voliol March 31st, 2015 5:29 AM

Raichu is pretty much Pikachu - but cuter.

Squirrel March 31st, 2015 7:02 AM

15. Raichu always struck me as one of those super cute and playful cuddly Pokémon, the kind of Pokémon that would be perfect as a partner whilst still having a decent amount of power if he needs to fight. Perfect kind of Pokémon :D

I'm with Weiss and Dedenne on this one. Gotta give Raichu more competition.
