Well at least we know it's not going to be filled with fighting types.

Also that is the weirdest looking Pikachu I've seen.

Pikachu looks really bulky; I guess that fits.

Also, Pokémon Fist would've been a better international name.

Pikachu looks...well...somewhat different from how it usually looks. Perhaps it's grown an inch or two?


@Nonaka Machine Gun B

The problem with that name is that not all of the Pokémon have hands.

So is this a female or male Gardevoir?

Considering how Gardevoir has a female-ish esque design my money's on the former. Pikachu's gender will be ambiguous of course.

Not to mention it's kind of......silly.

Yeah, I was half-joking about how these Pokémon seem to have masculinely muscular builds, including Pikachu to a smaller extent, with Gardevoir being the odd one out thus far (and hence could be the Smurfette of the roster...or the bishonen man), although her build is bulkier too, and she has a distinct chin.

(On another note, I so want to see Mega Mawile in this as the bratty twintailed girl.)
