Weekly Poll #3: Pikachu vs. Raichu

[InuYouki]

If they change it to Jigglypyff, i am stopping with the series and games!!!

That is who the original mascot was supposed to be when they first released the games, but Pikachu's popularity kinda put a stop to that. Or was it Clafairy who was meant to be the mascot I don't know, either way yellow and cute is better then pink and cute.

not to offend anyone, and PLEASE dont report me or anything for this but....... i hate pikachu so much that i get together with my cousin and have a wireless battle. the catch? we take turns bringing a pikachu so we can murder it with an:

A. Arceus

B.Raichu

C.Pichu lol

yeah its fun pwning pikachu. if only we could let the world see it...... hey! well my cousin has platinum so he can record his battles and post the battle # to the world... this may get interesting........

[InuYouki]

XD literally lol'd at the pichu.

I too enjoy taking out that little brat in the game. Anytime someone throws out a pika I take much joy in bringing him down. Such an over rated thing he is. I like Raichu, but seriously give me a Charizard or a Salamence any day.

Wraith is in third place

I went with Raichu. While I have characters that are pika's I still feel Raichu is the better. I hated in yellow that I couldn't evolve the little brat and the anima just makes my hatred worse >:C

Maybe I can see getting away with beating a Raichu once because it "evolved to soon" but beating a well trained Raichu is just bogus. Pikachu just needs to have it handed to him more.

I say, let Raichu use the lite ball and let him shine for once *nods* Though I guess having Pikachu for a mascot is better then Jigglypuff x.x

The problem is, if you give it the Light Ball, it becomes almost broken. Let's see... 90 Base Attack and Special attack... either one of them becomes 279 max with neutral nature (and reaches 309, I believe, with positive nature). Imagine that doubled... and coming off 100 speed. That would be broken.

Raichu's already an okay Pokemon with pretty high speed with a movepool to mess around with even Ground Pokemon... not to mention it gets Nasty Plot (Pika can Nasty Plot too, but when does it ever get the time to use that?). Encore messes with pretty much many things too

For the most part, I consider Raichu better in battling than Pikachu.

...what do you eat for breakfast, wraith?

And I chose that because I think that a pikastew would actually be better than using either one in a battle (can you tell I don't like them...?)

[roflskippy]

i like pichu best so i pikaed that one (lol play on words ^^)

[Goldgross]

Cmon Guys!!! Make wraith eat some pikastew!! XD
He'll love the fact that you voted for him to have some I knooooooooww iiiiiiiiitt!!! HUAHAHAHA

[evandixon]

I agree with you, Raichu's actually not too bad but if it is able possess to powers of the Light Ball. It would be too strong! It might join Garchomp in the Uber group...

Pikachu for the sake of its SSBB incarnation. Although it's sorta lackluster in the Pokémon world, I love mah high tier electric mouse almost as much as I love mah high tier marshmallow (Kirby). :3

(Desregard the tier list references, by the way. I really am a TR4Q guy. >_>)

[wraith89]

This poll is long over... and unfortunately, it seems Pikachu beats Raichu by a mile. Just as I suspected >.>
