I won't forget how awesome Raichu was and how it was presented in the anime as this fearsome pokemon capable of electrocuting its opponents. Now they have turned Raichu into an insecure pokemon who GF doesn't like

>>25601448

At least somebody has to show Raichu some love

The Japanese usually base them off of the military personnel that are in the country and based off of whoever is president. Very rarely do they portray them weeaboo kind

He's american, but that doesn't mean he's from Unova, could be a different american region

besides, what's that got to do with the discussion about the war?
>>
More importantly, is Surge a qt?

I vote yes.

>>25602600

Typically the descendants of the original Virginia settlers, so Scotch Irish and East Anglian.

>WASP

Combines elements of an actual wasp and angel. (Name+Religion)
Bug/Fairy (See above, also shits on Dark types extra hard)

We just need an ability or three and this thing is set to go.

It looks awfuly similar to Guile

There isnt only one war
The war Surge took part of obviously isnt the ancient war in Kalos that AZ ended
Kanto was based on the Tokyo of the 60s/70s, Surge was an American occupier and the war he fought was WW2
>>
>>25602917

Maybe there was a reference to Vietnam?

Kanto and Unova were allies and Kanto is where Surge was stationed. Surge grew to like the region and decided to stay.

>Surge grew to like the region and decided to stay.
That's obviously what happened. Anyway, he certainly didn't fight in any real wars.

Agreed, he was an Lt there is no way a fine officer like him would fight, but then again he maybe a mustang officer who was once enlisted or maybe he was SpecOps?

The questions just keep coming
>>
>>25603006
I meant that he's a fictional character in a fantasy world.
