Why is Pikachu so damn popular!!!???

Hey at least Pikachu is a (way) better mascot than Clefairy.:p
 
Pikachu is popular because he is an unrealistic electric mouse capable of directing electricity. It's human nature to want to manipulate science.
 
He's the mascot for the franchise now, the main Pokemon in the series, and is a well balanced Pokemon to have in your party. Oh, and he evolves into Raichu, which is the only reason the Chu-ster ends up on my team XP
 
Plus, electric types are weak to only ONE type. Fortunately its a very COMMON type too :p
 
It emits electromagnetical waves which brainwash your mind, making you believe that Pikachu is better than the other Pokemon, food, religion and pretty much everything else.
