They redesigned some Pokemon to be gritty and edgy, believing the cute designs would be more marketable to American audiences. Then they submitted these designs to Nintendo or Gamefreak and suggested they redo their sprites prior to release. Of course this request was denied and shit on. But OP's post is exaggerated for comedic effect, they did not make a busty Pikachu.
And yes, we Americans do a fine job embarrassing ourselves. Visit any Walmart and you'll find a morbidly obese woman on a rascal explaining face masks are anti-American while becoming winded because she's too fat to talk and breathe at the same time.
