>gets TWO MEGA EVOLUTIONS >Pikancer is stuck being an unusable shitmon with a gay lightball BAHAHAHAHA! WHAT IS YOUR RESPONSE NOW PIKAKEKS?????
>>58240064Yes, pikachu was never really viable. This isn't new. The only reason raichu gets the new forms and shit is because Gamefreak is so overly protective of its design. It literally just gets articles of clothing. Even in smash, the most they could do was give pikachu a slightly off color shad of yellow
>>58240064>TWO MEGA EVOLUTIONSFUCK YEAH RaichuGODS WE WON WE ARE SO FUCKING B->mega 1>iconic long tail is replaced with 2 pikachu tails>red pikachu cheeks>yellow pikachu body>mega 2>literally LITERALLY just orange mega pikachu with raichu's tail extensionIt has never been so over Raichubros.

>>58240064its the charizard of gen 1
>>58241189Both are a mix of each other.
>>58241189That 2nd one really pisses me off, its obviously for Pikachu
>>58240064Raichu wasn't in the leaks, was it?
>>58241293Nope, because it's DLC
YEEEEEEEESYESYESHOLY SHIT YESI AM SO FUCKING HAPPYMY BOY
>>58241189It's funny how if you switch one or two features between the two they just become Pikachu again
>>58241299Oh fuck, I just woke up and remembered there was a direct.You mean to tell me the game is not even a month away from launch and they ALREADY announced paid DLC? How greedy can you get
>>58241189Not even mega power was enough to get its fingers back.
>>58240142Pikachu is usable in Gen III.
>>58241281It's not *for* Pikachu, it's for people who prefer Pikachu's silhouette, and even then it still has Raichu's tail.
>According to the official website, only Pikachu can mega evolve into Mega Raichu, Raichu cannot.LMAO
>>58241391fuck off tardbaiter.
>>58241348The DLC was also mentioned in the leaks, IIRC. But yeah, it's pretty crazy. We haven't even gotten that much information on the game so far.
>>58240064>Pikachu: got Light Ball + Volt Tackle in Gen 3, 2 exclusive Z-moves and Partner Form in Gen 7 and G-Max in Gen 8.>Raichu: got the VT - LB bonus in Gen 3, a Regional in Gen 7 and 2 Megas in Gen 9.5.Fixed it to be more accurate, and what can I say except that it's starting to get *equally* recognized?
>>58240064what the fuck is the point of both of them being pure Electric? The other XY Mega pairs have different types from each other (the Y keeps the original, the X Mega changes type)
>>58242500Because if it gained a secondary type, that would force them to buff the line as a whole by giving it access to more moves in order to actually make good on that type.It also can't just be Electric/Fairy, Electric/Dark, Electric/Fighting or any of that, because there's already Pikaclones for those type combos, and that would cannibalize them entirely.
>>58240064>Kanto Raichu getting shilledWhat the fuck? Dude is like the anti-shillmon
>>58240064>bother Megas look like shit ai slop
>>58241348Nintendo's done it before. BotW and Xenoblade 3 off the top of my head.
>>58242302Raichu also got a crucial +10 speed in Gen 6 - compared to Pikachu getting some extra bulk so that it goes from getting OHKO'd to still being OHKO'd.
I love Raichu
>>58240064They'll eventually buff all Pikachu to partner Pikachu stats (and Pichu to Pikachu stats)These stats with a Light Ball, he'll be a nuke
Pikachu got a G-Max form, aint like he didn't get the special treatment at least once
>>58241391Holy kek at your cope Pikabitch, hope you enjoy shoving that Light Bead in your snus since thats all its good for now
