This Evil Giovanni Pikachu Sure Looks Cheery

To celebrate the launch of the latest Team Rainbow Rocket merchandise at Pokemon Center, a bunch of new Villain Pikachu mascots have appeared across Japan, greeting fellow Team members.

Here’s a look at these evil yet adorable Pikachu mascots!

Team Rocket’s Giovanni Pikachu

Team Aqua’s Archie Pikachu

Team Magma’s Maxie Pikachu

Team Galactic’s Cyrus Pikachu

Team Plasma’s Ghetsis Pikachu (probably the most hilarious out of the 6)

Team Flare’s Lysandre Pikachu

Unfortunately there’s no sign of a Team Skull Guzma Pikachu yet… but we’ll update this post if it happens to appear!
