While waiting for the time to come, deliveries are upgraded through 7-star teraids, that phenomenon that allows Pokémon to acquire types that are unusual in it. And in this regard, an artist has imagined Pikachu with any existing type.
The creation is the work of the artist PhantomLink2782, who shared his different designs on the Reddit forums to imagine the Pokémon that has accompanied Ash Ketchum for more than 25 years.

For the moment, the question remains as to whether this offer refers to a future project of the pokemon universe oh Project Bloomthe proposal they presented together with Private Division.
Of course, with the open world shift that occurred in Pokémon Scarlet and Purple, everything indicates that this same line will be followed in the future, something that could boost the search for a graphics engine that better suits to the needs of the study.
