Pokemon Fan Fuses Pikachu and Deadpool in Creative Rug
Because Pikachu is essentially the face of thePokemonfranchise, it’s safe to say that it has been a fan favorite for a very long time now. This means that the amount of Pikachu fan art and creations is absurd, with so many fans lining up to pay homage to the iconic Pokemon. These designs will often combine the familiar design with a new franchise, giving Pikachu a fresh twist. After all, fans have become familiar with Pikachu’s current design for nearly three decades, so something new is always appreciated. For example, onePokemonfan reimagined Pikachu as aDragon Ballcharacter, showing how the design could still work as part of another popular anime.
It’s still a couple of years before thePokemonfranchise celebrates its 30th birthday, but it’ll be interesting to see how The Pokemon Company plans to mark the occasion. One rumor suggests that2026 will see the release of Generation 10 of thePokemonseries, which could be the perfect way to celebrate this kind of impressive longevity. As with any rumor, this should be taken with a pinch of salt, but with Generation 9 beginning in 2022, 2026 would certainly make a lot of sense.
