Atsuko Nishida once said in a Yomiuri interview that he took lot of inspiration from squirrels (with hamster cheeks) for Pikachu because she was obsessed them a lot at the time and also that since Rattata already existed, she had no intention of making another mouse Mokemon. The inaccurate theory that Pikachu is based on a mouse or rat comes from Pikachu's Pokedex which categorize it as a "Mouse Pokemon" which, according to Nishida, was Satoshi Tajiri's idea and independent of Nishida
There was a commercial that had a jingle that sang Pikachu’s original Japanese name… it went, 🎶Pika🎶Pika🎶Chu🎶Chu🎶 Pika🎶Pika🎶Chu🎶 I wish I could remember what it was tied to. It was either a talking plush or a Digipet I dunno.
Some more trivia: Pikachu is also your starter sync pair in Pokemon master (EX). And currently, the Pikachu line is the most frequently appeared sync pair within the game, currently 5 trainers in Pokemon masters EX partner Pokemon is pikachu. (And 3 more with Raichu)
I haven't watched this guy sense 2020 I forgotten about him and my love of Pokémon nice to watch this guy again I remember watching dobbs on my dad phone everyday watching about Pokémon
I hope Riachu gets a mega that takes inspiration from Gorochu Also it does suck they chose baby pokemon in gen 2 as ofc pikachu had to get one tho I wish they just gave raichu an evolution instead
Hey dobbs! Insurgence soul link ( on easy) with pimp. I know its an old consept but i have to feed my needs man. I am currently rewatching all your runs! People of yt let my voice reach master dobbs.
Pokemon is more successful than the Mickey Mouse franchises and Mickey Mouse has a more than 50 year lead. Pikachu is more recognizable than the Disney fucking mascot him himself
The Pikachu and Pichu Game boy color wasn't the first console that Pikachu starred on? There was also a pokémon yellow Game boy color released that included pokémon yellow, and it had Pikachu, Togepi, and Jigglypuff on it but every bit of advertising, including the box, was centered on the Pikachu. And it was released in 98 in Japan and 99 in North america
I haaate present time pikachu. They made him into an ugly beanpole, no longer the daifuku squirrel rat we know him as. All to be lazy, too. They made him ugly to make him " easier" to animate, at the compromise of his entire concept.
Hmmm, I think you still didn’t mention the tail changes with gender introduced in XY… also, pokemon horizons captain pikachu and all the pokemon go exclusive pikachus…
Dobbs btw good thing you dated the video as pikachu card 212 is coming out on friday and people might alkreafy have it from prereleases for temporal forces
This was cool. Could you do Pokémon cards that were illustrated by mangaka? Crown Zenith GG13 is a Diancie illustrated by Land of the Lustrous writer Haruko Ichikawa.
If that's scrapped evolution gorach if it was released today I promise you I know exactly how it would be to evolve Raichu into it first of all you need it to be holding a light ball you need a Pikachu to be holding a light ball evolving into a Rach then you need to make sure it has exactly the stats 114 speed oh and it has to be a certain nature then on switch you need to immediately spin around four times laying on your tippy toes max out friendship by the way and then you need your Pikachu to land exactly 17 Thunderbolts consecutively when its accuracy is lowered then you need to make sure you have top stats your Raichu then also another thing one more thing you need to do you also need to breed that right you with another Raichu that has a light bulb get a Pichu with volt tackle and then you need to breed it with that Raichu once it hits a Pikachu and then you finally get a Pikachu evolve into Raichu then you get gorochu complicated enough for you yeah that's game freak for you they're the same people who have to make you spin around four times in game and then turn your switch upside down just to get a single Pokemon evolution enjoy trying to max out and complete your decks in Pokemon Sun and Moon and Scarlett and a violet😂😂😂😂😂 is that complicated enough for you yeah that's how I imagine it would go
i wonder what clefairys influence on pokemon would have been if homosexuality was accepted sooner 🤔i mean lets be real if you were a boy and liked pink things chances were high school kids called you gay 💀 but without the bullies and it being ok for men to like pink i think clefairy might have been a bigger hit
@MelonArmyMick my point is that since homophobia is still a thing that doesn't mean homosexuality is accepted by everyone though maybe it's more accepted than the past 🤷♂️
Bruh..of course you included pikachu's loss to "level 5" snivy 🤣 infamous huh? I thought it was the other guy not satoshi that told the designer to make pikachu cuter 🤷♂️ also technically pokemon yellow had pikachu's iconic cry first
Honestly I hate Pikachu's Modern official design. His head is too round and too small. His design peaked in the early anime, and they should have stuck with it.

Hey and I'm your old subscriber since Dec 2019
And my birthday is in March 22 ❤
Pikachu has been my all time favorite Pokémon since I got into the franchise in 2017, and he still is to this day. Man how the years fly by.
Don’t forget when pikachu had that little black design on its tail before Project Mandela Effect told us otherwise

HAPPY ONE MILL BEEN WATCHING U SINCE I WAS IN ELEMENTARY IM IN COLLEGE NOW U HAVE BEEN SUCH A ROCK FOR ME AND POKEMON EVER SINCE
I haven't watched this guy sense 2020 I forgotten about him and my love of Pokémon nice to watch this guy again I remember watching dobbs on my dad phone everyday watching about Pokémon
Dont start again, he has gotten worse and uses a lot of other poketubers research material and video material.
The intro's can be dope though.
Congratulations ethan on your one million subs hopefully you bring back the pokemon red speed run with mia would be great to watch again 😊
This is an ideal camping tent, I’m sold
Dobbs, please put out more things. This soon to be celebrity loves your work!!!
12:37 In 2010 I received an Electivire with the PKTOPIA OT trainer in a trade to my HeartGold. Never knew it was from Battle Revolution!
pokemon center pikachu is my favorite:>
Now I want the history of every pokemon
Fun fact: When Pikachu's line was a 3 stage line in Gen I, Pikachu evolved via leveling up instead of using a Thunder Stone.
Ya hit me right in the nostalgia
pikachu just be hitting gym
Pikachu, the only thing that ages less than ash
FR-
I hope Riachu gets a mega that takes inspiration from Gorochu
Also it does suck they chose baby pokemon in gen 2 as ofc pikachu had to get one tho I wish they just gave raichu an evolution instead
Major W
2019, 2022, and 2023was best year for Pikachu.
Hey dobbs! Insurgence soul link ( on easy) with pimp. I know its an old consept but i have to feed my needs man. I am currently rewatching all your runs! People of yt let my voice reach master dobbs.
If this is a series Im interested in the evolution of Ditto
Good content
I love how they do pikachu cry in games in yellow and gen 6 7 and 8 just like in the anime until it cry change back in gen 9
Great video as always! Any chance you could make another one, but for charizard?
I was actually thinking about doing that! haha
Nothing like celebrating your 1M by talking about the series mascot 🥳🎉
I had the pikachu tv game from 2003 and it was peak pokemon.
Future video idea: 1 (or more) fact(s) for every Pokemon region, and not just the main series games.
Each time you mentioned a game release I was like "that was # years ago, wow I'm old"
Perfect Timing Just got my shundo Pikachu in Go👌
Did u see the shiny Rayquaza in the cartoon? That Pokèball is a new one that hasn't been shown before
13:26 😱 PikaBlue confirmed!
22:51 if that Pikachu is supposed to resemble Van Gough, why does it have both ears?
Dang, hope raichu gets love too
Just here to comment and like your video cuz i love em. But pikachu suuuuckzzz😂
Pokemon is more successful than the Mickey Mouse franchises and Mickey Mouse has a more than 50 year lead. Pikachu is more recognizable than the Disney fucking mascot him himself
13:34 So that's why Smash Bros fandom shipped Samus with Pikachu......
1:59 Pokémon Ads OOC
Fun fact: you can shake a Pokéwalker for steps.
I have it to my mom when she went to work and she would come with over 20000 steps. Her job included a lot of walikng
are you gonna contuine your pokemon timeline series

Like a chipmunk stores it's "nuts" 🤨
Pretty cool the pikachu fan 2006 is named Damon which coincidentally is my name🤣🤣

You should do the complete of eevee
We want the complete history of Togepi
The best pikachu design is the one from the pokemon blue/red. Period.
Hmmm, I think you still didn’t mention the tail changes with gender introduced in XY… also, pokemon horizons captain pikachu and all the pokemon go exclusive pikachus…
That was introduced In diamond and pearl
1:59 💀
Oh and one more thing it needs to have perfect IVs otherwise you won't get a single Evolution from it yeah pretty crazy right
Ilysm. 😊
Hear me out guys. Gorochu. Raichu mega evolution.
Dobbs btw good thing you dated the video as pikachu card 212 is coming out on friday and people might alkreafy have it from prereleases for temporal forces
Pikachu talking was the worst thing Pokemon has ever done
Pikachu Belle learns Icicle Spear
It's DIE-fookoo, not duh-FOOkoo.
And given KOROSHIAMU is evidently a borrowing of COLOSSEUM, I'm betting it's stressed on the I, not the A.
This was cool. Could you do Pokémon cards that were illustrated by mangaka? Crown Zenith GG13 is a Diancie illustrated by Land of the Lustrous writer Haruko Ichikawa.
2022 was peak
Pika pika!
13:28 Mandela effect Pikachu!
Did someone count how many times he says pikachu in this video 😅
How good was pikachu, ACTUALLY?

0:10 naw finally use gane freak logo
Kinda sad ya didnt cove Katy Perry's Pikachu video lol
Do 1 fact about every Fnaf character ask dawko to do research for the video
Hi
Pikachus cheeks are red
Surprised you didn't mention when he got a separate female sprite.
i wonder what clefairys influence on pokemon would have been if homosexuality was accepted sooner 🤔i mean lets be real if you were a boy and liked pink things chances were high school kids called you gay 💀 but without the bullies and it being ok for men to like pink i think clefairy might have been a bigger hit
I think homophobia is still common today 🤷♂️
@@maganhassan2627i like purple and im not gay😂 and pink is alright better than brown 😂
@MelonArmyMick my point is that since homophobia is still a thing that doesn't mean homosexuality is accepted by everyone though maybe it's more accepted than the past 🤷♂️

pikachu lost weight
you forgot that in 2006, pikachu gained a gender diferential in his appearance
Bowser and Kirby are badder than Pichu in Mele😡😡😡
pichu
Honestly I hate Pikachu's Modern official design. His head is too round and too small. His design peaked in the early anime, and they should have stuck with it.
Also not mentioned was the new 3ds XL Pikachu edition from 2017
