No. 172: Pichu

Because, you know, Pikachu just wasn't cute enough.

But it brings up a bigger point: Pokemon can breed in Gold and Silver. They couldn't before. Pokemon eggs are treated as new discoveries. Apparently no one had ever seen a baby Pikachu (which would be a Pichu) before.

That would be really, really stupid.

Did everyone just assume Pokemon popped out of the ground, or maybe that they weren't a renewable resource, or what!? How in the hell did scientists NOT discover "hey these animals make the sexy and do an egg".

But actually, given the amount of lenience in breeding partners found in Pokemon, (hot Skitty on Wailord action!) perhaps they DON'T actually make the sexy. I like to think that there is a legendary stork Pokemon that literally flies around and brings eggs to expectant Poke-parents. It would make a lot more sense that way.

Oh, and Pichu. I love Pikachu, but Pichu is dumb. It did not need to be cuter. Also Pichu was a waste of a slot in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Screw Pichu.

Overall: 3/10
