Pickachu

[Gaiash]

pikachu becomes uberly awesome in the end of the season but always goes back to square one at the begining of the new season... stupid to the max but true

actually its a wise move. If Pikachu never powered down the show would become very boring.

Pikachu weak or strong pick one stop going back and forth.

At times like this I wish someone can e mail them and tell them what they are are doing wrong.

 

[~*Mudkip Fantastic*~]

If Pikachu was super strong all the time Satoshi could beat EVERYONE!

Episode 504
Satoshi versus random trainer! Pikachu wins another bloodey battle! *yawn*!

 

[pokemaster95]

whatever can you type something that goes over your small brain or are you stupid

 

[uber gon]

Well, in Pikachu vs. Elekid, Gary used a pokémon that in the games is immune to its attacks. In fact, it benefits from them.

Yeah but it has been with Ash three major series. Shouldn't it be in level 80+ or something. And yet it always has those hard
battles in the beginning of the series where the opponents are about 4-18. I think it should be Oak'd. It sucks anyway.

The magnetic force of Mount Tengan actually offsets Pikachu's electrical abilities by around 60%, and it takes awhile for it's Internal Electromagnet glands too get accustomed to the electrical polarity of a new region. Elekid, however, is a Johto Pokemon. Therefore it has a different succeptibility to the effects of Mount Tengan's eletric signature, and made his Elekid stronger then usual.

Of course...it all makes sense. :-X

 

[Almighty Zard]

Come to think of it Pikachu never has luck when it comes to the Electabuzz clan, when it comes to any electric pokemon but them he always shines but that clan seems to be superior to him, look at the statistics.

Elekid=tie.
Electabuzz=loss(no namba's doesn't count since it got gang warred by two pikachu's i'm referring to Rudy's from the OI's
Elekible=loss

i guess we should be thankful as it seems Electabuzz and it's other forms are the one force that can keep Pikachu down from the top, and making it seem like it's not the best after all.

Thank the Lord For Elekid and Evo's. They are keepers of the piece.

 

[The Benmeister]

They're hardly keepers of the 'piece', as they caused more uproar from fans on this board due to the fact that Pikachu beat a Regice prior to their battles. If anything, they sparked the war again.

And what the hell has this anime spoilers section become? It seems you can't go through half of a topic without seeing a completely irrelevant post.

Its good writing. As ~*Mudkip Fantastic*~ and I explained if Pikachu never powered down then Pikachu would never lose unless it faced another Legendary.

Your not serious. Lets look at 3 reasons why Pikachu WON'T be Oak'd.

Its Ash's starter Pokemon
Pikachu is the mascot of Pokemon
Ash and Pikachu's bond of friendship

There are so many other reasons but these are the most important ones. If Pikachu goes Ash does, and even then the new hero would most likely have a Pikachu.

I realise this. But it still annoys me.

It is quite obvious that Pikachu will never leave. But it steals the spotlight of so many cool pokemon. Every single electric pokemon is doomed to rot in a filler instead of basking in the light of being a main pokemon. Of course they could give the rival one(like they've done with Elekid/Elekible).

Ash treats Pikachu better than his other Pokemon AND ITZ UNPHARE!!!11! (This comment is merely a joke)

Pikachu won't be Oak'd, It's stable as well as important.

Remember that Regice was simply unleashing an onslaught of attacks, rather than guarding itself from Pikachu's own attacks. Especially when Pikachu uses Iron Tail, a move effective against Ice-types.

Pikachu's primary problem there was trying to effectively land a hit on a Pokemon that simply could freeze it in its place, meanwhile unleashing powerful attacks.

Elekid, on the otherhand, used offense AND defense. Rushing full speed towards an enemy who uses Protect is like running at full speed into a brick wall. Not to mention, the effects of Volt Tackle dealing damage to the user.

While Regice is insanely powerful due to it being a Legendary Pokemon, the method for battling used with it wasn't as effective as with Elekid.

 

[Zubeon]

He can beat a regice but ties with an elekid wut is with that

Let's consult the Grand List of Console Role Playing Game Cliches.

Let's Start From The Very Beginning (Yuna Rule)
Whenever there is a sequel to an RPG that features the same main character as the previous game, that character will always start with beginner skills. Everything that they learned in the previous game will be gone, as will all their ultra-powerful weapons and equipment.

Of course you have to substitute 'Anime Season' for RPG and so on and so forth.

Obviously whoever was employing the use of a legendary near uber pokemon just wasnt as battle ready as a relatively new trainer fighting with a baby pokemon. Dur.
