Nintendo Giving Away Ash's Pikachu

[ViletteMadr]

Oh no. I just couldn't. Taking someone else's pikachu. Especially "the pikachu". I just... i just...no.

Damn I miss pokemon, this thread just reminds me of being a kid. I had a level 100 squad and Pikachu was one of them, yes I could have evolved it and made it stronger but then it just wouldn't be a pikachu would it. I'm really tempted to get black and white just to relive my youth.

 

[Nostalgia]

i just cant beleave pokemon is still going strong

Extremely.

The Iron Tail and Thunderbolt moves are amazing!

Adventure Games [http://www.mindjolt.com/] are coming along much better nowadays.

... I'm not a fan of pokemon. When they made it so you had to put in a lot of RL effort(besides having two systems and both versions of the game) to get pokemon it got really, really stupid.

It honestly makes me rage a little bit. All pokemon should be in-universe which a lot of them don't seem like they are. Emerald was interesting in the way it did legendaries. IT was a lot of work. That's how it should be. But hte work should be IN-GAME.

Nah, not worth it for me. I can steal Ash's Pikachu the old-fashioned way. (That and it hasn't been offered here in Canada, to my knowledge >:/)

Perfect plan:

Go dress up as Team Rocket, download the Pikachu and cackle like a mad hound.

It's on the Canadian Pokemon site apparently. I think that's a good sign. Maybe?

I won't get my hopes up too much. After all, my minions have been after this particular Pikachu for a loooooooooooong time.

So the United States get Ash's famous Pikachu, the UK will end up getting shiny legendaries quite soon, the one question remains is...what does Australia get? Oh not it's fine, don't worry about us, i'm quite fine with you guys getting free Pokemon and me only getting a Mosquito who has been in my room for 3 days and stings me all night.

At least we finally have a release date for Black and White versions.

Europe: 03/04/11
USA: 03/06/11
Australia: 03/10/11

...Why?

 

[TimeLord]

Are any events like this held in the UK? If so how can I find out about them? I usually only hear about events after they happen.

As far as I know, only the Mew event has happened in the UK

 

[Grabbin Keelz]

About god damn time, now gimme meh Pikachu!

 

[apachejoe1]

shit dude i played red and blue loved it and ive also been waiting for this pikachu sense i saw him beat brocks onix like it was nothing.

 

[Ulquiorra4sama]

So what? My Pikachu knows Iron Tail, Present, Volt Tackle and Surf! Also it holds a Light Ball.

Beat that!

 

[Flying Dagger]

It's not a proper pikachu unless you caught it in viridian forest with a pokeball.
I remember being at a sleepover, with everyone watching and crowding round me as I caught them a pikachu.

 

[GamemasterAnthony]

I actually got this one...well FIVE of them yesterday. *gets looks* I'm a geek. SUE ME.

Interesting thing is...the Nature that Ash's Pikachu has is Naughty. For those that have watched the anime, this explains MUCH!

 

[Rubberbandninja]

Does it stay in its pokeball? If it does, it's an impostor!

Well, you could always get the event pokemon yourself. just find the file online and use [link = sendpkm]http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=211989[/link]sendpkm to send it through your own WiFi connection.

If you don't want to do that, just keep up to date with Bulbapedia News.

Sweet mother of fuck.



Can anyone from the States please do this?




Please. Just do it and post results on Youtube.

I could try, but I have neither the hair nor the shirt with the giant red R on it.

Still, I will try. (maybe I'll go as a Rocket Grunt? They wear all black, so that should be easier to pull off.)

 

[soren7550]

It's done! I went dressed as a Rocket Grunt, recorded the mess and obtained the Pikachu for Team Rocket! Mu-hahahaha!

However, since my younger brother went all 'HULK SMASH!' on my computer, I can't upload it to YouTube at the moment.
