Hello and welcome back YouTubers to another episode of Pokemon theories. The show where 9 out of 10 doctors agree Professor Oak isn't really a professor and going to the gym doesn't mean pumping eyes Please note that in all my videos if I use images from Google that I do not own any of those images and all images Aten from Google are owned by their respective owners and copy rights So please remember this when watching my Pokemon theories. Thanks Today's theory Red's Pikachu is actually ashes Pikachu Now I get a lot of questions about red being ash or red being related to ash But the most common question I receive is that ashes Pikachu was originally reds Well, this may sound good and even plausible with Pikachu's level the question is does it have evidence to support it? Well, this is Pokemon theories after all, so we will solve this theory It has been a question of mine for a long time How a starter Pokemon like Pikachu is able to defeat nearly everything it battles early on and Also be defined enough not to listen to ash at first and then refuse its pokeball even close to its own death And it was given to ash by professor Oak the same professor who gave red his starter Even though red starter is not Pikachu if you follow the Pokemon origins and the red and blue games So it's possible that when red went to mount silver to train he died It would make sense because all his Pokemon would be returning to professor Oak However, he does return later on in the black and white series for our tournaments so that can't be possible Unless everyone in the world was seeing a ghost But yeah, we've been over that theory But professor Oak was once a champion so perhaps it's professor Oak's but yeah That doesn't have enough supporting evidence to it But ash's Pikachu is extremely powerful so if it isn't reds then how did it get so powerful? In the first episode Pikachu defeats a number of Pokemon Building its experience exponentially Pikachu defeats over 30 Spiros in the first episode with the help of rain and its electric attacks at the same time You can actually pause the video and see how many Spiros it takes on at the same time Well that wouldn't jump its level to 100 instantly it would definitely boost it greatly later when ash Battles jazel in the Pokemon school she states that ash's Pikachu should be around 20 to 25 Over the anime isn't exactly perfect on figuring out how Pokemon's levels were Considering Pikachu did defeat brox geo dude and onyx with electric attacks and then defeated a cubo By turning at skull backwards and having it hit itself with its bone meringue attack So the anime is not the go-to source for the most concrete evidence of stuff But it still really seems likely with Pikachu's power that it was previously owned by someone else namely red Sadly to dash everyone's hopes and dreams out there. There's absolutely no way ash's Pikachu was owned by red This can be proven by simple evidence found in both the anime and the game spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn't seen Pokemon origins So take both the games red blue as well as Pokemon origins red defeats Giovanni and after defeating Giovanni Giovanni decides to dismantle team rocket meaning red had to come after ash not before ash in order to have his Pikachu Clearly in ash's universe Giovanni can be seen several times and Giovanni even battles ash with his Persian Giovanni is the gem leader that defeated Gary and Can be seen talking to Jesse and James he even owns the island of giant Pokemon So as valuable as this theory seems ash's Pikachu is 100% not red So whoever used to be Pikachu's owner we may never know But perhaps it will be revealed in time professor oaks another trainers or maybe it was just a crazy strong wild Pokemon So I hope you guys enjoyed this Pokemon theory and hey if this theory didn't entertain you enough There's tons of theories in my Pokemon playlist over 50 of them in fact So one of them has to at least peak your interest so check it out And don't forget to drop a like in a comment section below if I choose your theory I will give you a shout out in the comments section below bearing in mind that a million and a half people aren't asking the same exact theory Thanks for watching and of course happy gaming I Hope you enjoyed that video guys and now time for a service announcement from the maverick Tired of the norm is it time for a revolution Join the rebellion and become a maverick today by subscribing to Rotomarian remember together we can create a new world order of gaming mavericks unite
