Yes, they can't. Pikachu is the symbol of Pokemon.

Looks like I have a reason to finish up Pokemon Journeys now that Digimon Ghost Game is coming to a close. I'm looking forward seeing Pokemon with a new protagonist.

If this is completely unrelated to the original I may try it since I haven't watched Pokémon in like 20 years and barely even know gen 3

Was always a Digimon kid, hope ghost game gets a sequel with another member like Rulis friend

If you seen the original Pokemon, then you can jump into Pokemon Journey's without missing a beat since it makes call backs to the original series. The problem is that its just two male with Goh being the annoying one and the female lead doesn't show up until way later in the series, so you probably won't like it. I haven't followed Pokemon as much Digimon since I stopped playing the games a while back.

I would recommend watching Pokemon XY or Pokemon Sun and Moon if you still want to give the Pokemon franchise another shot.

The hairclip in Liko's hair is a nice touch and callback to the original. Looking forward to a new generation.

Can we please have an anime about Gloria and Marnie and other cute Pokemon girls?

I want an anime about Pokemon lesbians,,,,YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES

IMO they are too many males in Pokemon, at least for my taste. But there are also a lot of cute girls. They should have their own show. I would love a CGDCT with Pokemon girls

They all look like fun characters, but I wonder why they even need to make so many original characters when the game has plenty they can use.
