Post other franchises trying to make their Pikachu.
>>25590318
you posted a raichu and zubat fusion
>>25590323
This nigga has too many alt forms
>>25590318
>what is agumon
Patamon is a baller. If Takeru wasn't like 3 or he had a competent parter, the series would have been a lot faster.
>>25590318
Patamon is not the Pikachu of Digimon, Agumon is
>>25590318
patamon is not digimon's mascot.
>>25590349
>>25590355
Aren't Agumon & the Greymons more like the Charizard of Digimon?
>brought up time & time again for nostalgiafaggotry
>bunch of formes, including an edgy black one
>big fiery lizard
>kids think it's cool
Wouldn't say Digimon has a Pikachu to be honest - nothing quite fits the cute poster boy role
>>25590386
Agumon is the fucking mascot
>>25590318
lol you think Patamon was created after Pikachu's popularity?
research more
>>25590386
Agumon is still the mascot
>>25590396
Nobody cares about digimon or its history
I can't blame OP for not giving a shit either
>>25590391
>>25590407
Just because Pikachu is a mascot in a monster franchise, it doesn't mean that a monster franchise having a mascot is them trying to make a Pikachu
>>25590503
Then what the hell does "pikachu" mean in this case?
>>25590519
Cute rodent made for the wimminz demo.
>>25590318
That's a Wigglytuff you mouthbreather
>>25590519
Something which has the same sort of appeal as Pikachu
>Pikachu was chosen as the primary mascot, in an attempt to appeal to female viewers and their mothers, and under the belief that the creature presented the image of a recognizable intimate pet for children
>>25590526
>>25590545
So any cutesy mammal? You know Pikachu didn't invent cute mascots right?
he counts, right?
>>25590565
This anime was GOAT
>dat qt robo mermaid waifu
>>25590562
Kind of, yeah. That sort of cute/bro/pet balance, I guess
Obviously Pikachu wasn't the first but it was incredibly successful at making kids say 'I want one' & it's likely that a lot of franchises have wanted to emulate what it achieved
Kuriboh
>>25590621
yup, this
also he has pacman for eyes
>>25590633
Whisper isn't supposed to be cute and likable, though. Also he can't fight.
>>25590633
>Implying
>>25590580
The first season was prettt cool. Spirits, on the other hand...
>>25590318
>not posting Pommy yet
I'm disappointed in everyone

It's alive in my heart

is it bad i know where this comes from
>>25590345
>pikachu is the trainer
BRAVO AKSYS
GODZILLA is Toho's Pikachu.
>>25591185
Best mascot from best monster collection franchise.
Mickey mouse
>>25591185
But Shin Megami Tensei is older than Pokemon.
>>25591909
Who cares? Hee-Ho is mascot of whole franchise. Even the Persona games.
>>25591909
And?
>>25591953
Title of the thread is "other franchises trying to make their Pikachu". As in: they saw Pikachu's popularity and tried to recreate it with their own monsters.
>>25590318
>Le Digimon is a rip off of Pokémon meme
They were tamagotichis mate. The names of the franchises are similar because of how the Japanese combine words.
As it is, noone gives a shit about PatamonIt's all about based Tentomon
>>25590565
i still pray the pokeani will become half as good as medabots season 1
and yes i watch xy
>>25590355
I disagree.
Kids costumes and merch everywhere like ten years ago.
You probably just weren't an adult then.
>>25591970
Let me tell you about Devil Children.
>>25592129
You have a point with that game, but Jack Frost existed before Pikachu so SMT did not create their own mascot as a result of Pokemon.
>>25592185
You're really getting hung up on that.
>>25592205
What can I say? I've got nothing better to do.
why not just make a vidya mascots thread on /v/?
Or are you trapped on /vp/?
Pepe is 4chan's attempt at a Pikachu.
>>25593849
Actually, scratch that.
Pepe = Charizard
Spurdo = Pikachu
Wojak = Mewtwo
CIA = Lucario
>>25590355
Agumon is the Charmander of Digimon ya dingus.
>>25593874
>no Pedobear, Happy Negro or Cockmongler
I feel old.
>>25590318
Dragon Quest Monsters and its Slime. They just need a yellow slime, and boom. Pikachu.
>>25593979
not even yotsuba
>>25592019
>slays devimon
>slays piedmon
patamon is objectively the most important digimon in S1
>>25593979
Spurdo is a Pedobear derivative.
>>25590345
>literally pikachu
>literally petilil
>>25591185
beats pikajew any day
>>25591349
Remind me what it's from, I definitely recognize it from somewhere. If I had to guess, some stupid Youtube video
>>25590386
I'd say Terriermon
there was a period when it and its pallet swap was on the merch quite a bit more than the others, and it noticeably had more presence than either renamon or guilmon.
>>25590562
It is however a pretty damn good posterchild for it.
Mickey, Mario, Megaman, Sonic, Spyro are all mascots for their respective franchises, and all have a certain degree of 'cuteness' or child appeal to them, but aren't exactly a 'pikachu' either.
>>25590345
The game turned out to be incredibly meh, and the recruiting mechanics every bit as annoying as Yokai Watch.
Seriously Disney? They have ripped off the "mouse" motif!
>THAT SUDDEN REALIZATION THAT PEWDIEPIE IS THE PIKACHU OF YOUTUBE
>>25593849
Pepe doesn't belong to 4chan anymore. It belongs to Facebook now.
>>25594893
Why not make your plushkin instead of recruiting!
>>25593849
We didn't even make Pepe. We just used him.
Neither patamon nor agumon are digimon's mascots. Omegamon is digimon's mascot.
yuck. I hate over the top cute characters, especially if they don't fit into their world and are just there so the game has a mascot character. Chocobos are the way of doing it right.
This piece of shit made me hate tamers.
pic related: doing it right
>>25595979
Drawn Together was pure garbage.
>>25591185
this one is the best one though, way better than pikachu
>>25590562
No but it is the reason all the Pokemon clones, like Digimon, Monster Rancher and Robopon all try to push a "face" character like Pikachu.
>>25591185
Never understood the appeal of this ugly little fucker. I guess the fact that he's the only """cute""" thing in that edgy-as-fuck franchise makes him stand out as less terrible than the rest.
>>25596882
Agreed. Worst of the worst.
>>25596945
I will unscrew your head and hee-ho down your neck
>>25595109
No, we got him back when that shooting happened, and these days he belongs to Trump.
>>25596945
Mothman is cute as fuck.
>>25596964
That's not an answer.
>>25596973
That's true, Mothman is a much better design than Jack.
>>25596980
>That's not an answer.
you didn't ask a question
you just stated your faggy opinion
>>25596945
You probably just have a case of bad taste, anon. I'm afraid there's no cure, you're just going to have to live with it.
>>25596980
As >>25596984, you didn't ask a question, you just stated your opinion. We have a different opinion. And hey, that's cool. We don't have to agree on everything.
>>25590864
Fucking loved Monster Rancher.
MR2 on playstation was fantastic.
Not sure if Fried Ricer or Omlette.
>>25597033
Those are Godzilla monsters you twat.
>>25590953
RIP Hudson
>>25590638
>also he has pacman for eyes
Can't unsee
>>25590355
This exact image was on literally every piece of American merch after the anime came out. Bandai was trying to shill Patamon as a mascot hard because HURR IT'S A CUTE BUNNY TOO!
>>25594843
I'd go with Terriermon as well. Although it's popularily, I feel, is mostly due to the fans liking him so much. I think the higher ups realized that and started upping his exposure.
If I have my facts straight, Terriermon first appeared in the Digimon Movie (The english release of which is some strange combination of two Digimon features, the one with Diaboromon and the one with Cocomon). He later appeared in Digimon Tamers, the third series.
After that all my information stops since I stopped watching the shows. I do know that Terriermon is prominently featured in the Cyber Sleuth game as one of the three starting Digimon you can choose at the beginning of the game.
>>25590323Is Yokai Watch any good?
>>25593874
>CIA= Lucario
>Not the big guy himself
>>25594893
I was expecting a lot of monsters, but there's like 3 for each type.
It feels like an alpha tbbh.
>>25590565
HELL YES!
>>25594076
Being most important is irelavent. Clefairy was going to be Pokémon's mascot remember?
>>25597503
I think they meant to reply to the post above that one.
>>25598185
It'sfunbut the RNG is a bitch for recruitment
>>25590318
Pokemon Diamond
>>25590323
Jibanyan is so cool.
This franchise tried really hard with theirs.
>>25598185
yes the anime is good.
