>>40918274>MarillNope. Would be Pichu. Pikachu is for the boys because it's seen as being cooler in the original equation and Pichu would continue that. Direct Pikachu clone also makes more sense at least for Gen 2. And Marill in particular, when compared to the entire Pikachu line, is less cool and more cute therefore making it more girl oriented. But Togepi already fills that role and has anime power so it's definitely the only girly choice to go with.
>but Pichu isn't the Pikachu clone in Gen 2!Game Freak said otherwise so you're factually wrong.
