Beta No. 172: Pichu

congratulations to everyone who's excited to have Pichu back in Smash (all 3 of them)

Beta Pichu was significantly more spherical than the final version. Of course, Pikachu himself was chubbier back in those days. They've both slimmed down, haven't they?

You know, I said I don't want to rag on the artistic interpretations and all, but I think this one kinda missed the mark. In any case, the simplicity of the design just seems like a child drew it, and I can see why the revised version was close to Pikachu in proportions, with more detail than just "uh the limbs are black"


Overall: 2/10
