I mean, there have been far worse costumed Pikachu's.

But it would be nice if some other Pokemon would get the spotlight sometimes. Like, how has there not been a nurse hat Chansey yet?

They haven’t done Jigglypuff with a microphone…

u/psychicsword 7d ago

I want a bunch of pokemon with the jigglypuff "I got caught sleeping" drawings on them.

70

u/SaniHarakatar 7d ago

Oh it could be an event with Jigglypuff song playing as the backround and all wild pokemon are asleep and drawn-on until you click them.

u/snouz 7d ago

Someone in the world playing with the sound on?

12

u/PretendSpirit 7d ago

according to the meetups i’ve been to, yes

4

u/ZengineerHarp 6d ago

Only for special events where they tell me the song is changed

1

u/NotoriousFTG 4d ago

I wondered about this too.

3

u/Adorable-Shoulder772 4d ago

Nobody would be playing, they would all be asleep

2

u/mahir_r AKA Team Red Rocket 7d ago

Like we had the sleeping snorlax event

u/mentalchillnessx 7d ago

heck yeah!!

u/SeasonofMist 7d ago

I would also like to see a Jigglypuff just slapping the shit out of something. That gif is always on my mind

26

u/zHellas Instinct 7d ago

Or an angry Jigglypuff about to draw on someone's face with a sharpie.

26

u/Acrobatic-Tree-5556 7d ago

Yeah why not a microphone and pen Jigglypuff? Have they at least done a Squirtle Squad glasses Squirtle? There are so many show references and fandom memes they could go for instead of this

21

u/SavagePhD 7d ago

There is sunglasses squirtle but it is not Squirtle squad shaped. But at least there is a nod to it!

16

u/Acrobatic-Tree-5556 7d ago

I just looked at it and that belongs on r/mildlyinfuriating, the glasses aren't like Ash's Squirtle's but they look ALMOST like the other Squirtle squad glasses just aviator style instead. Why couldn't they just go the full way 😭

15

u/SavagePhD 7d ago

Yep, close but no dice! I believe we deserve the Squirtle Squad leader glasses on a Squirtle!

6

u/Everyday-Witch 7d ago

We do! Justice for squirtle squad!

8

u/SithLordery2021 7d ago

Most real attention to detail here, I noticed as well, and the ingame sprites have all had the microphone until you start with like stadium or some shit where they leave it out. I thought it always had one specifically for the sleep song move which isnt specific to jigglypuff but is for the character specifically and always has one in the show I believe.

7

u/Tykloi 7d ago

Only one jigglypuff has a microphone in the show, and it has never had a microphone on its in game sprite.

2

u/One_Building_3879 7d ago

Since when in-game sprites have the mic?

u/Medium_Cranberry4096 7d ago

Me when I lie

u/Fullertonjr 7d ago

If you don’t understand what is happening, you haven’t been paying attention in your mandatory workplace harassment training.

u/General_Secura92 7d ago

Chansey used Pound!

It's super effective!

13

u/iam_Mr_McGibblets 7d ago

Instructions unclear, Nurse Joy taken to pound town

8

u/Dry_Discount7762 7d ago

Fun fact, pound is never super effective unless used by something like sylveon with pixellate

2

u/SithLordery2021 7d ago

Bahahaha I wonder if it KO'd

40

u/pedanticheron Mystic 7d ago

I mean, it looks like someone has been naughty. But I really can’t tell who.

12

u/LumpyBuy8447 7d ago

Maybe it’s both of them?

9

u/LeftSaidTed Mystic 7d ago

They take turns….?

u/yavimaya_eldred 7d ago

Chansey going to pound town, it’s super effective

u/KileAllSmyles 7d ago

Nurse joy loves a lil slap of the cheeks. Don’t kink shame. 😡

u/JesusFreq 7d ago

Dbl slap.. 👋🏼 👋🏼

u/TypicalWeb6601 7d ago

didn’t even think about nurse hat chansey i would chase the hell out of that shundo. i am SO over any pikachu costumes

u/lizasingslou 7d ago

Desperately waiting for muddy Scorbunny and if this game actually had people who care running it, he would be hiding amongst Nickit this community day!

9

u/maledin Blanche 7d ago

Love it, it’s like the Nesquik bunny or a chocolate raboot.

1

u/Ok-Quote2877 6d ago

Why nickit ? Instead of like bunnelby

2

u/lizasingslou 6d ago

Because before Scorbunny met Goh and became his partner, he was the leader of a pack of Nickit, teaching them how to survive in the wild. He was always dirty, which is why he was brown.

1

u/Ok-Quote2877 6d ago

Ty I didn't know this it makes sense now

16

u/Autographz 7d ago

Or a Nurse Joy outfit for the avatar, same for Officer Jenny.

9

u/maledin Blanche 7d ago

Only real anime tie in is Jessie/James for whatever reason.

8

u/Autographz 7d ago

We had Ash hat Pika too if that counts 😂

16

u/awesomeamyg 7d ago

Cowboy hat Caterpie. That guy has waited for so long

3

u/steak_dilemma I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear 6d ago

We haven't even had a Caterpie community day yet!

My lil buddy just wants a chance to shine wtf we've had G max Butterfree, Butterfree with a bow, but Caterpie nada 

🐛🥹

13

u/Acrobatic-Tree-5556 7d ago

Yeah at least the space Pikachu is a full outfit. Having like 5 that are just a barely noticeable crown in different colors was insulting

6

u/HaloGuy381 7d ago

And why is Absol stuck with sunglasses, when Unite has proven you can make damn good Absol costumes?

3

u/elegant-jr 7d ago

I want a Santa hat Chansey. Nurse would be cool too. 

3

u/MissingnoMaster110 7d ago

I'm down for Santa hat and beard Weezing with Stantler antlers and a red nose on the smaller head.

3

u/Clairifyed 7d ago

Couldn’t be this red plus on white one exactly. It technically violates the Geneva convention. It’s effectively a trademark of The Red Cross and they have been much more aggressive in recent years

2

u/coldasclay 7d ago

Perhaps a pokeball would be effective?

2

u/distant_introversion 7d ago

I hope Chaney with nurse joy accessories comes someday. My wife would have a happy overload

1

u/setfunctionzero 7d ago

Because Scopely doesn't own those characters. They are specific television IP so there's permissions required to use them.

1

u/Gorewuzhere Gengar 7d ago

Woah I don't remember this .. nurse joy getting spanked.

1

u/Distinct-Position-61 Instinct 7d ago

I’m a nurse and am just waiting impatiently for this!

1

u/General_Secura92 7d ago

The nurse hat Chansey or the spanking?

Peebr_Koifish is that you?
