>gen 2 didn't have a Pikachu clone >that's why

>>32447477
No they introduced 2 due to the double battle gimmick.
Pichu was that gens Pika to showcase the new breeding mechanic.

>>32447477
technically we got a pre-evo to pikachu instead.

Also, I was baffled the first time when I saw plusle and minun that they were not some alt-evos for pichu or something.

>>32447477

Pichu was the first Pikaclone; it was a Pokemon made to cash in on Pikachu's popularity and show off breeding

Plusle and Minun should have a fusion evo

Anyone who denies that Marill was the original Pikaclone is retarded.

there was no point for a pikachu clone. We got a baby form instead

Underage bait?
Before the name was spoiled every kid on every playground was calling it Pikablue.

Yes it did. Only it was actually done well instead of just being a knockoff Pikachu.

I wish they would have continued with different types of pika clones that were different types with decent evos

Marill was never a pikaclone. Only a retard would still think that today.

It was definitely a Pikaclone at first, it's just when they started making all the rest Electric Type they moved away from Marill as one

>>32447550
This


They tried to close with different elements. When it didn't work because Merrill wad ugly they did straight pika clones.


Its the deny-er fags fault we don't have a full pika elemental wheel right now

The only things Pikachu and Marill share in common are the eyes and the fact both are based on mice. Saying Marill is a pikaclone is as retarded as saying that houndoom is a clone of growlithe because both are fire type and based on dogs.

It's what started the blue Pikachu meme

>>32448276
Imagine:
>Plusle and Minun are now Fire and Ice with a hot & cold theme
>Pachirisu is Grass because squirrels hoard nuts or something
>Emolga is pure Flying
Dedenne and Togademaru are better as part Electric, though.

Pikablue.
