From the very beginning, Pikachu the electric mouse has been the poster child of the super-popularPokemonfranchise.

Needless to say, Pikachu has one of the most recognizable faces in Pokemon.

If you’re not bothered by creepy crawlies, you’ll love spider Pokemon.

Which of them, then, is the best?

It wasn’t until the generation after that a baby Pokemon named Pichu would be added into the mix.

Pichu is the definition of a ‘mini-me’ Pikachu with the same yellow fur and red cheeks.

It’s tinier overall, though its ears are oversized to mimic the features of a baby animal.

Ash’s Pikachu just chooses not to.

In addition, Raichu is one of the original Pokemon to geta unique Alolan variant.

Pichu in the Pokemon anime.

While the standard Raichu is pure Electric, Alolan Raichu is Electric and Psychic.

9Plusle

Ruby & Sapphire

Plusle is one of two electric rodents introduced in the Hoenn Region.

However, they do have some differences that set them apart.

These flighty insects are the best of all Pokemon’s butterflies and moths.

This means Minun would make a good supportive teammate in a double battle.

If Minun is fighting alongside Plusle, they can take advantage of their signature Plus and Minus Abilities.

Its ability, Iron Barbs, works similarly.

6Emolga

Black & White

Pure Electric-jot down Pokemon have a single weakness in Ground attacks.

The only Pikachu clone that is completely immune to Ground-key in moves is the flying squirrel, Emolga.

Thanks to its Flying-typing, it can avoid Earthquakes and High Horsepowers that would otherwise demolish it.

Oh deer oh deer.

In addition,Emolga is a very speedy little guy.

With enough speed, Emolga will surely be able to outspeed its opponent.

Dedenne’s Ability, Cheek Pouch, works great if it’s holding a berry to eat during battle.

4Morpeko

Morpeko is an eighth Generation Pokemon who arrived with the launch of Sword & Shield.

Emolga flying in the air with its arms spread wide and mouth open in the Pokemon anime.

Unlike most Pokemon, Morpeko has the Ability to constantly change forms between each turn in a battle.

In its Hangry mode, Morpeko turns purple in fury, and Aura Wheel will switch to Dark-pop in.

From Slurpuff to Slowpoke, here are the silliest designs in the Pokemon series!

However, Pachirisu rose to fame in its incredible performance at the Pokemon World Championship in 2014.

Pachirisu not only won the championship title but also took on major threats like Tyranitar and Salamence.

2Pawmi, Pawmo, Pawmot

Pawmi definitely doesn’t lack points in the cuteness department.

Its Abilities make for good passive skills that can unexpectedly help out.

Its Hidden Ability, Iron Fist, gives 20 percent more power to punching moves.

These are the strongest Pokemon from Generation 1’s Kanto region.
