Kinda tired of this to be honest famalam

Just excuses after excuses just so Pikachu never evolves

How much does Game Freak regret that they didn't have Pikachu as a standalone Pokemon?

official raichu is pretty cool and cute too

>>31602221

I don't recall that Raichu being smug. I recall it being timid and using Dig to get away from everything.

>>31602778
Somebody actually did that in Best Wishes

In my opinion, Alolan raichu > pikachu > raichu. Alolan raichu is too cool.

>Ash legitimately happy Pikachu didn't evolve

God forbid Pikachu ever evolves, otherwise, their relationship might drastically change.

It's so weird seeing this, because it almost feels like they're both too afraid of the "consequences". Almost as if they know their relationship might get sour over one evolution and barely believe in the idea that Pikachu might still be Pikachu as a Raichu.

>>31604787

Several of Ash's Pokemon have undergone major personality changes when they evolved though

>>31604787
Well I mean Ash does seem to have a nasty habit of releasing Pokemon once they fully evolve so there is a basis for the fear.

>>31602184
And people say shit like the Alola starters having common personality traits is bad, try having a whole species suddenly act like jackasses just so their pre-evo can look like the bigger man to sell toys.

>>31604787
Your description isn't clear enough.

>Trainer diving to prone in order to intetionally prevent his Pokémon from becoming stronger

smug raichu is best raichu

but smug asshole raichu sucks

>>31602184
Makes sense. The pokedex always brings up how Raichu can get aggressive.

The smug/bully personality they usually give Raichu makes it cuter to me honestly. If it were nicer I'd probably like it less.

>>31605074
That is pretty true now I think about it

How would you feel if the pokemon anime pulled a yugioh GX where the protagonist got replaced, only for Ash to come back at the end and challenge the new protagonist to a battle, and Ash evolved pikachu off screen?

Raichu is the best

Even his feet are drawn better

>>31605655
A shame that GF barely made evolving it into Raichu worth it with shit like that one Pikachu item that made it shit all over Raichu for example.

>that episode where a Raichu hyper beamed Pikachu in the fucking face and sent it to a Pokémon center hospital style severely injured

And they managed to make Raichu edgy

Fuck

>>31606005
So that you can fantasize about Raichu forcing you to rub their feet

>>31602184
Too many.
Raichus are bros, fuck Pikachu.

There was that one episode from the gen 4 anime, in which Ash's Pikachu has to pretend to be the runaway Pikachu of an old lady and at the end, said Pikachu returns as a Raichu.

I think that Raichu was nice.

>>31605898
>It did it at point blank while using the notch in its tail to hold pikachu's neck against a tree.

>>31606162

The TCG has apparently gone insane with the power creep since I stopped playing.

If you lick raichu's foot and it tickles will you get shocked?

He's just proud of its power that's all.

>>31602184
They always try to make Raichu look like the asshole because GF would rather have you forget Raichu even exists, as if Pikachu is better somehow.

Honestly, its becoming fucking sad. You're not only going to make kids think that if they evolve their Pikachu in their own game they're an asshole with no heart and the message of "you don't have to change the way you look to be my friend" has worn itself out to the point the message can be skewed into "I'll love you only if you stay a Pikachu forever and ever". Because wouldn't a BETTER message be that even though its appearance may have changed on the outside, its still the same friend you battled countless times with on the inside?

>>31604273
this looks like some horrible Frankenstein mashup of Penny Aracde and B^Uckley

>>31602184
Who cares?

The fact Raichu got an Alolan form in the games means someone cares for it.

It also means, deep down, GF knows Pikachu will never be viable.

>>31607317
>means someone cares for it

No, the stat buff in XY proved that

>>31604543

Pikachu has knocked away the thunder stone with its tail before, I'm sure.

God that entire episode was a shitstorm.

>>31602536
The anime doesn't seem too fond of certain evolved Pokemon. If it's not cute or badass like Charizard, it might as well be a villain.

>>31610550
Raichu is cuter. It's chubby and big. Made for hugs.

Maybe the lack of oxygen/air is what made Ash so brain dead in certain situations.

>NO YOU KNOW WHAT'LL HAPPEN IF YOU TOUCH THAT PIKACHU
elaborate?
what did he mean by that

>>31612902

He's implying that Pikachu knows what'll happen if he dares touch it, which is evolution, which mean both were trying their best to avoid such occurrence.

>>31613155
>avoiding evolution
It won't be much of a problem if Ash had a problem with all of his Pokemon evolving.

But no, Pikachu is the only one special enough for some stupid reason.

>>31613155
what happened when Pikachu evolute?
Will Ash abandon him

>>31613250
well actually it's Pikachu who vehemently refuses to evolve under any circumstance and Ash kind of went "well okay buddy, whatever you want". So Ash is just trying to avoid Pikachu having an autistic meltdown.

>>31610491
I'm with you. I don't understand all the XY asskissing.

>>31604350
I never understood the hatred for B&W. I guess most of it are anons just going with the flow.
