Because Pikachu was well-known among Japanese schoolkids.

>Our discussion began with a simple question: why is Pikachu so popular? "Probably thanks to Pikachu being in the anime and being Ash’s partner," Masuda says. It wasn't Game Freak's decision to make Pikachu the face of the brand, he just sort of fell into it. It was the production company, OLM Inc., that made the anime who recognized the adorable electric rat's potential. "That was a decision, or rather a suggestion, from the company that made the anime," Masuda says, "They originally came to us with the idea that they wanted to feature Pikachu, because Pikachu at the time was really popular amongst kids in school. It is a hard-to-find Pokémon, so kids knew about it."

Will of the people retard. They wanted to make Clefairy the mascot of the series, but the people playing the games preferred Pikachu.

I agree Minnie and her sweet ass is a much better mascot

1) You can find it near the beginning of the game
2) It's pretty hard to find so kids would discuss it on the playground
3) It is one of the few electric types in Gen 1 which made it pretty cool to have
4) It's waaaaaay more appealing than Clefairy.
