I usually love Pikaclones but this one looks like shit and it will probably be another Dedenne rather than a fun support mon.

Isn't this a standard for every generation?
How is this any different from new starters, new legendary mascots, etc.?

This is my favorite after Pachirisu.

I just thought Pachirisu was cute and interesting. Emolga was not cute. Dedenne bored me and I didn’t understand the fairy typing. Togedemaru also bored me but I found it loads more interesting than Emolga or Dedenne.

This thing has “goofy anime moments” written all over it - that or Team Rocket’s, and this fucker pulling a bipolar “cute and hardly attacks Ash” but then “I’m going to attack Ash and then Jessie until there’s an episode where Jessie gains its trust in Hangry form”

It's different because pikaclones are always uninspired boring shit that they never do anything remotely interesting with, ever. Every other archetype like the regional birds or fossils or whatever have wiggle room, but a pikaclone always has to be an Electric-type ratty mammal that closely resembles Pikachu with garbage stats and sometimes has a shitty gimmick. They're the most soulless part of this franchise, a concept that has always existed solely for marketing purposes and nothing else.

Mimikyu was a good swan song to finally end the Pikaclone crap (even though Togedemaru was the actual Pikaclone). And now with the Dex cut, wasting "slots" on another rehash is far more annoying than it was in the past.

I actually really liked when they got meta about the phenomenon with Mimikyu though.

I'm kind of hoping that the gen 9 Pikaclone ends up being the game's pseudolegendary.

The thing about Mimikyu is that it's a really interesting and cool take on the idea, but for whatever reason it's not actually considered a pikaclone.

Its signature move make it change form (Like Relic Song for Meloetta).
The mon is always Electric/Dark type, but the move itself is Electric when used by the Yellow form, and Dark when used by the Purple one.

>Yellow use (ELECTRIC) signature move
>Turns Purple after that
>Purple use (DARK) the same signature move
>Turns Yellow after that

There is nothing to hide, every generation gets a pikaclone, it is not something "hidden" it is just like every generation having a pseudo (2 in Hoenn).

pretty much this.

the thing's stats are also unlikely to be good. mimikyu is an outlier because of its ability, letting it be pretty strong in setting up under the right conditions.

At least they were tongue-in-cheek with Mimikyu and Togedemaru was a solid design on its own. This is just self-referential masturbation, literally designed by a committee made out of meme experts.

Why are people complaining about "yet another Pichu" as if they weren't expecting it? We get one every generation, are you guys that new?
That being said this one's the worst designed one by far, even worse than Togedemaru since while Togedemaru was also just a simple shape, it at least had a reason for being a simple shape whereas this is literally just the default Unity pill with a few extra lumps stapled onto it. I could model this Pokemon.
Also it kinda irks me that there's two different colors on its sides but it only has one alternate form.
Also the obligatory complaint that using Twitter terminology is dumb.

Surely the form change does more than just change the signature move, right? If so that's shockingly bland, not to mention I can't see it being useful whatsoever.

Emolga let you play with Zapdos' type in casual play plus lower tier and Togedemaru can paraflinch things. This one is not only unapologetically yellow to look like an Action Replay Pikachu but has a shit gimmick when we consider the usage of Meloetta and the nonexistence of Zen Darmanitan.
