a friend and I decided to explore a variety of different pokemon match-ups for fun! So, I'll be uploading my halves of the pairs...
this time a Raichu....!
I know female Raichu are supposed to have blunt tails... but I simply like the sharp tip ... I relate with sharp shapes, so I've decided to ignore the games canon for the design....
The pixel drawings are the first ones I did...!

She's slender for a Raichu, pretty much entirely leg. Her ears rest low, making the curls on them sit against her cheeks rather than fan outward. Her leg markings extend much farther up than the usual.

She has no electrical abilities. No good reason for it, either. Would seem a birth defect. It's impressive she managed to get this far in her evolution.
She's a self-condemned social outcast, not wanting to fraternize with other 'chus, less for the fear of being ostracized, than for the fear of passing on her traits, which she thinks are horrible...
She breeds only with those outside of her egg-group .... or, pokemon who otherwise amount to an infertile partner.

She is dour and fussy, and doesn't talk too much. She conveys complete irritation and condescension towards Pikachu and Raichu with a glance; none would try to befriend her, which is how she wants it. She's friendly towards others, but has a resting bitch face at the best of times, and still isn't easy to get to know!
