(reset indent) Well, we have to place this fixup now. The official title is "Spiky-eared Pichu." It can be proved via HGSS's Pokédex under "Forms".

Have we got any Sugimori-style (official) artwork for this Pichu?

== Does anyone know? ==
If by evolving your shiny Pichu you can then no longer get the Spiky-eared Pichu. I know that it is the ball holding it that causes the event to happen, but I wonder as the shiny Pichu came with an Everstone if this was to make sure it always remains a Pichu to activate the event?  [[User:011284mm|011284mm]] 18:52, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

== Battrio ==
I was just wondering if it is worth noting in the trivia section that dispite her being a one off {{tt|Pokémon|HGSS only}}, she has 2 Battrio disks of her? I cannot clame to be right as I am not in Japan, and I am taking my information from Serebii.net, but there were no other special Pokémon that I could find.

== Evolve? ==
Can Spiky-eared Pichu evolve? If it can, does it evolve into Spiky-eared Pikachu or a normal Pikachu? --[[User:Nathan2055|Nathan2055]][[User Talk:Nathan2055|<sup>talk</sup>]] 01:21, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
:It can't evolve or be traded. Yes, it's ''that'' useless. [[User:Blazios|Blazios]] 01:31, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
== Unused Sun/Moon sprite ==
The trivia section mentions that Spiky-eared Pichu has an unused menu icon in Sun and Moon, and, indeed, Bulbapedia has an icon for it, and the upload date makes sense.  However, I have [https://stuff.catseyemarble.com/sun-moon-icons.png a dump of all the icons], including any unused ones, and I can't for the life of me find Spiky-eared Pichu.  I've looked over that entire image several times, and I'm confident I didn't just miss it; it's possible that it's stored somewhere else or something, though.  Does anyone know for sure that this icon is ripped from Sun/Moon, or, even better, where exactly in the games' guts I can find it? [[User:Zhorken|Zhorken]] ([[User talk:Zhorken|talk]]) 01:17, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
:I tweaked my script to isolate [https://stuff.catseyemarble.com/sun-moon-icons-unused.png the icons not associated with any Pokémon], and it's just the placeholder Poké Ball icon and the egg.  No spiky 'chu. [[User:Zhorken|Zhorken]] ([[User talk:Zhorken|talk]]) 01:44, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
