pikaniggers lost
>>58243926Did they? Both megas are some of the worst pokemon designs ever, which is saying something.
>mega evolves>reverts back into pikachu because no one likes the obese orange raflol. kek. rofl, even.
>>58243926I like to think of this as a win for the house of pikachu
>Mega Raichu Y distinctly designed after Pikachu>raichufag thinks people won't just ME into Raichu Y if they ever botherLiterally my first 2 thoughts on seeing that shit was A) Game Freak FINASLLY found a way to unfuck Raichu, by copying Pikachu again and B) Finally a reason to use that shiny Raichu I got in AZ.
>>58243926>Raichu was literally dismembered and had its body parts glued onto PikachuThis is not the win you think it is Raicuck
>>58243926OHNONONONONO
>>58243926I got sat on by a Raichu once, my entire ribcage ended up getting broken.
>>58244114HOT
>>58243926>megas that are hodgepodges of pikachu and raichu's designs>pikafags losing
>>58243926Sadly, Raichu looses a bit of his belly in the new mega forms... OG Raichu is still best
>>58243926Literally both megas take on traits of Pikachu, so its painfully obvious they are only giving Raichu these megas because they can't give them to PikachuMega Raichu X literally gains Pikachu's colors, even Mega Raichu Y's bio says it looks similar to Pikachu
>>58244092>similar to that of pikachu
i'd laugh if the anime shows pikachu beating mega raichu
>>58243926Uh? They put raichu in a pikachu shell because they wish raichu didn't existWhich they're niggers for, raichu's cooler
>>58246081Raichu bros...
>>58243926Retarded Raichucuck, learn your place. It all returns to Pikachu.
>>58247478Game Freak 100% regret having made Raichu, with all these work arounds they've had to make
>buychuConsoomers lost
>>58243926>OP warping factsmeh
>Pikaniggers lost>Raichu's Mega Evolutions all look like fucking PikachuFor GENERATIONS overshadowed by its pre-evolution. Even Pichu has more relevance than fucking Raishit.
>>58247849>Game Freak 100% regret having made Raichu Then why they don't just retcon it out of the franchise?
>>58249385Because that ruins the iconic 151 branding they love to use all the time in marketing and merchandising.Even if there's mons they hate, they objectively can't get rid of anyone from Gen 1, as it's no longer the OG151.
>>58249055Pichu was effectively the Gen 2 Pikachu clone, before they were a thing, while doubling as a baby evolution of Pikachu, so it got a lot of mileage, getting to show up as the Pichu Brothers in the anime, and even getting to be playable as the Gen 2 rep in SmashRaichu just kind of exists, just to exist at this point
>>58249055Reminder that Pichu was the final nail in Raichu's coffin. It was ALWAYS meant to be a mere middle stage to Gorochu, the real meat of the line, but Pichu existing due to a combination of "we want the girls to buy plushies UWU" and "we want the poor animators and merch makers to have an easier time making cartoons and products of our monsters ^_^" meant that Gorochu was now permanently scrapped from the equation since they weren't about to break their "a Pokemon can only evolve twice" rule.
>>58249543The only chance Gorochu has at this point is if they ever give Pikachu a split evolution from RaichuI'm waiting for the day Game Freak goes full mask off and just create Pikachu 2, literally just Pikachu, but with better statsI also wouldn't be surprised they make a gimmick revolved around non-fully evolved Pokemon at some point, to make them as strong as their fully evolved counterparts, and Pikachu becomes the face of it
The rat is too fat
>>58247849They did make Alolan Raichu who's just normal Raichu but better but they also had base Raichu's Gen 7 entry say it's rare because people don't like it compared to Pikachu.Wonder if they're hiding a third mega Raichu for the Alolan form.
>>58249562That or they'll just buff Light Ball to be +1 in every stat.
>>58249604*+2 in every stat.
>>58249506The original 151 pokedex is like a bible to them. No one can touch or modify it or it's not Pokemon franchise. If I ever want to change pokedex, Nidoran, for example should be merged like others gender difference pokemons.
>>58243952>>58244030>>58244092>>58246038All the faggot zoomers in here who didn't watch the original anime outing themselves. Raichu is badass, you fucks are just retards.
>>58249772>badass...Until it got hit by a humiliation ritual by Pikachu, and then every single Raichu's characterization was defined by Surge's Raichu's rivalrty with Ash's Pikachu, and they were either smug assholes who needed to be put in their place by their superior, "weaker" form, or beta pussies who don't have the same bravery as Pikachu.
>>58249562>literally just Pikachu, but with better statsThey did that already, with Partner Pikachu in Leg Pee.
>>58249790The way you say it makes it sound like Raichu is just the Wario to Pikachu's Mario or Sonic and Shadow. It's supposed to be a cool rivalry then where raichu is the badass powerhouse and pikachu is the underdog.
>>58244092>similar to that of Pikachu
