'''Pokémon Pikachu 2''' was a giga-pet toy that was released in fall of [[wp: 2000|2000]] (shortly after the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} for the [[Game Boy Color]]). The giga-pet toy was a spin-off of {{g|Pikachu}} which was released back in [[wp: 1998|1998]]. Like in Pokémon Pikachu, the user would have to take care of Pikachu. The toy is also designed to look like a Game Boy Color.


The giga-pet also communicates with Pokémon Gold, Silver, and {{v2|Crystal}}'s [[Mystery Gift]] feature. To do this, the user would have to have a Game Boy Color, a copy of any one of the three [[Generation II|2nd Generation]] RPG games, and of course Pokémon Pikachu 2.

'''Pokémon Pikachu 2''' was a giga-pet toy that was released in fall of [[wp: 2000|2000]], shortly after the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} for the [[Game Boy Color]]. The giga-pet toy was a spin-off of {{g|Pikachu}}, which was released back in [[wp: 1998|1998]]. Unlike the original [[Pokémon Pikachu]], the user would not have to take care of {{p|Pikachu}}. The toy is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Step_counter pedometer], and is designed to look like a [[Game Boy Color]].
 
==Gameplay==
 
===Screens===
At the top of the screen on the '''Pokémon Pikachu 2''', there are three icons, the first resembling a clock, the second resembling a gift, and the third resembling two coins.  These can be scrolled through using the left and right buttons on the control pad. An icon can be selected by pressing the biggest button, resembling the ''a'' button on the [[Game Boy Color]].
*The clock screen allows the user to check how many steps he or she has taken and how many watts he or she has received in the past week.
*The gift screen allows the user to check the current amount amount of watts he or she has, and watts to Pikachu to buy friendship.
*The coin screen allows the user to play a game with {{p|Pikachu}}. The user is shown a card, and the user must guess whether the other card {{p|Pikachu}} is holding is higher or lower than the other.

===Pikachu===
In '''Pokémon Pikachu 2''', [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]] cares for itself. At different times of the day, [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]] performs different daily tasks, such as eating an apple, brushing its teeth, taking a shower, sleeping, exercising, etc.
 
====Friendship====
The user can befriend Pikachu by giving it watts. The Pikachu faces a different direction, depending on whether or not it likes the user. This status can be checked by pressing the button representing the "select" button on the [[Game Boy Color]].

===Watts===
Every time the user takes 20 steps, a watt will be added to the gift screen. These watts can be given to {{p|Pikachu}} to buy its friendship, gambled at the coin screen, or sent to Pokémon {{v2|Gold}}, {{v2|Silver}}, or {{v2|Crystal}} as a [[Mystery Gift]].
 
==Interactions with Generation II==
The giga-pet also communicates with Pokémon Gold, Silver, and {{v2|Crystal}}'s [[Mystery Gift]] feature. To do this, the user would have to have a [[Game Boy Color]], a copy of any one of the three [[Generation II|2nd Generation]] RPG games, and of course Pokémon Pikachu 2. The user would transfer the watts he or she receives from walking, and the amount of watts given to the {{player}} of the RPG game would result in a different gift.
