Best Pikaclone!

[Sheep]

It's that time again! Let's vote for our favorite 'Pikaclones' - Pokémon that are small electric rodents with a similarity to Pikachu. So, which is your favorite? :3c The original Pikachu line counts as well!

Other than the Pikachu line I would have to go with Emolga. Though I love all of my electric types.

I like Pachirisu! I vaguely remember having one on my team when I played Diamond (my first pokemon game). Also I'm currently making a project for school about the Pachirisu that won VGC Worlds in 2014, so Pachirisu has definitely been on the brain recently.

Views the original as the best, despite the over-exposure. May have liked the others more in a vacuum. Cannot shake the feeling of them being low effort knock-offs designed to be appealing by building off of Pikachu. Literally called Marill "Pikablu" on an official trading card before the official English name released. (Owns that card.) Resulted in some negative appeal ever since.

Second place: Togedemaru. Feels like more of its own thing than the others. Also had a good time with it in Alola.

I'm usually indifferent to them, but I got a liking to dedenne thanks to pokemon SMD!
