You get Pokemon, you're getting Pikachu with it. He's the face of the entire franchise and has been for almost 20 years.
not putting pikachu in the game would've been the stupidest shit ever. "thinking outside the box" doesn't mean not thinking at all

Wonder If they will add Porygon.... Gotta love Gardevoir their that was really awesome gameplay from her That Mega evolution Too bad Pikachu nailed her.The Suicune vs Machamp was interesting as well. The close up brawl moves of Suicune were cool.

Pikachu looks awesome and so does suicune (Still hoping for luxray)Shwa said, January 24, 2015, 08:52:39 am*Heihachu
I'm not trying hard to ignore Pikachu, it's truly how I see it like. I see Pikachu as an icon, sure, but not necessarily as a main thing in the main generation games (although ORAS did give him some special attention). I'll be blunt, I never liked Pikachu to begin with.Until now, since Namco turned him into a Mishima badass~
Pikachu is literally the face of the entire Pokemon series. He has multiple games solely centered on him for fuck's sake.You should have said that you hated it in the first place instead of coming up with random reasons like "oh right there was that show".
That's why I said "in the main games" in my post, not referring to the spinoffs or the such. I'm not trying to come up with random reasons, and I already know he's the face of the Pokemon series, not to mention I'm certainly not saying this game would be better off without him. I like how he is in here, I like how they made him different from the usual cutesy Pikachu, and it helps making his addition to this game more distinct and interesting. I only expressed that I feel not a whole lot of people think as much of Pikachu these days, but I might be wrong as I haven't checked that many places where Pokemon is talked about.That's all.

Pikachu has a goddamn balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade. How much more in the public view can you possibly get?
if you google image for pokemon its the first image and it then suggests you to also search for pikachu.
Goddamn it, I'm not questioning his popularity. What I meant is that the way I saw it, I didn't see Pokemon players giving much of a damn about Pikachu.Look, I don't know what to say at this point anymore, just that I regret posting anything about Pikachu. That was a stupid thing to say, because I was only taking in consideration the main Pokemon games.
