Pikachu variants: Difference between revisions

{{incomplete|needs=variants from ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', images from Snap, [[List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions (Generation IV)#Sleeping Pikachu|Onemuri (Sleeping) Pikachu]]; [[SM091]] variants}}

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the player will be able to receive a unique female [[Cosplay Pikachu]], which has a black, heart-shaped mark near the end of its tail. This event occurs after the player takes part in their first [[Pokémon Contest]] Spectacular.

This particular Pikachu is able to be dressed up in five different costumes corresponding to each kind of Contest stat ({{OBP|Cool|condition}}ness, {{OBP|Beautiful|condition|Beauty}}, {{OBP|Cute|condition}}ness, {{OBP|Clever|condition}}ness, and {{OBP|Tough|condition}}ness) and learn exclusive moves which are linked to these stats. Cosplay Pikachu can switch costumes anytime by going to any [[Contest Hall]] in the [[Hoenn]] region and talking to the {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} in the rightmost back room. This Pokémon Breeder can also remove the costume.

Unlike other Pikachu, Cosplay Pikachu is in the {{egg3|No Eggs Discovered}}, meaning it cannot {{pkmn|breeding|breed}}. It also cannot [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Raichu}}.

[[Ash's Pikachu]] made a snowman in the shape of itself on the cover of [[Pikachu's Winter Vacation Soundtrack]], which also appears in {{g|Channel}}. In the [[Pokémon Dream World]], a Snow Pikachu was featured as a piece of [[Décor]] in the Winter Catalogue 2011. During the Holiday 2014 promotion on the online {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store|Pokémon Center store}}, a Snow Pikachu was one of the special plushes.
