We haven't posted a Haruhi Suzumiya dance clip recently. For good reason, because we've already posted tons. Too many actually! Haruhi overload!! Because of that, the bar for Haruhi dance clips is high. Few things can effortlessly jump over that bar as Pikachu can. Quality stuff, this.

I mean...I knew Pokemon bred. It's a staple of the series. But, you know...I always thought it was Nintendo-style breeding, which just happens. Not real-style breeding, where...urgh. Full pic is after the jump, not because it's NSFW, just because it's NSF...brains.

Why Does Pikachu Look So Content?

Fake Pikachu Brings Iraqi Children Happiness
This one is for a good cause. For the kids. Blog A Geek By Any Other Name was watching a fluff CNN piece about an Iraqi kids TV show. The clip showed how the show was a refuge from the war and let kids be, well, kids. Fair enough! Then guess who appeared? PHONEY FREAKAZOID PIKACHU! Yay!! A reporter interviewed one of the Iraqi kids who said that she really loved Pokémon. We bet she'd love the real ones even more.Even Iraqi Kids Love Pokémon [a geek by any other name via Japanator]

The True Meaning of Pikachu
File this under "huh." Ever wondered what "Pikachu" actually means? Sure, you have! "Pika" is from pikapika, which means to sparkle or glitter. "Chu" is from chuchu, the Japanese word for the sound mice make. So put them together, and you get "Pikachu," AKA "Sparkle Mouse Noise." A shame the localizers stuck with the Japanese original. We quite like that Sparkle Mouse Noise moniker.Pikachu's Meaning [LongCountdown via Japundit] [Geek on Stun]

Artist Dresses as Pikachu Bride
Art time! Photographer Kimiko Yoshida takes loads of pictures of herself dressed as brides from various cultures. There's a Cyber Bride, a Shinto Bride, a Communist Mao Bride and, yes, even a Pokémon Bride. Swing by her slightly NSFW website (there are art jubbs, you've been warned.) So far, she's done something like 150 brides. Gotta wed 'em all!Kimiko's Site [Official Site via Pink Tentacle via ectoplasmosis]

By no means is the first Pokémon car, and by no means is it the last. However, it is better than this one. Way better. It's from one of the Pokémon Centers in Japan. There seems to be a whole fleet of them Pokécars. But those Pika-cheeks? Darling. Wheel covers? Fab. And those lights? Adore them.

Pokemon For Sore Throats
Even when you've got a sore throat, Pokémon is there for you. Yes, this is Pocket Monsters nodo ame (throat lozenges), which comes in two fruity flavors: Orange and grape. They even have Vitamin C in them. How about that? And if this wasn't enough (it really isn't), there's Diamond & Pearl SPACE JUICE. Well, it's not really space juice. Pokémon space juice would be absurd. Rather, it's mixed fruit juice in an astronaut-style squeezy pouch that's often used for energy jelly drinks in Japan. Here, have a look: More »

Scary Pikachu, I Choose You!
During my travels through Akihabara I happened upon this absolutely terrifying and rather disturbing set of Pikachu shirts. McWhertor will be returning there tomorrow to hunt this bad boy down as long as they have it in an extra extra small. Yeah, that's how he rolls.
i so don't choose you
Snapped at Japanese bookstore, it's like poor Pikachu was put in a medieval torture device. This has to scare children. Hell, it scares me.

The Pikachu Shopping Stroller
Over the weekend, the fam and I went shopping. It was at one of those huge, American-style shopping malls that are geared towards families with kids. Since these shopping centers are quite large and since small children get tired easily, stroller-type shopping cards are provided. Usually, they look like cars, but this mall had Pokémon ones — like with Pikachu and everything. There were also Hamtaro, Doraemon, Ultraman, Anpanman, Thomas the Train and Mickey Mouse. All bases, covered! More »

Here's a fan-made take on Pokémon doing the Haruhi dance — an amazing take at that! Pikachu's small arms make the dance movements somewhat difficult, but in a cute way. Hit the jump for the original in all its original glory.
