Maybe it's old but dfc 27 What are you doing Team-Rocket?

Okay no Pikachu ain’t useless. He proves time and time again to not only be decently powerful but also incredibly loyal. And if you’ve ever played some of the latest gens you know how useful a loyal Pokémon is in a fight. Boo hoo meowth talks but he can’t do shit except scratch I mean have you ever seen him in a legit Pokémon/gym battle? Cause I haven’t and I’ve seen nearly every episode except Alolan. Pikachu can learn, adapt, and listen to his trainer whereas meowth can back talk and be a little bitch

They DID gave a f*ck about him. he was literally ONE OF THEM.
