Ash and Pikachu always got knocked out in the top 16 in the Pokemon League.. Can Pikachu and Japan fair any better?  hmm How will his electric abilities and skills translate to football?

l believe Pikachu's agility and pace should work nicely on the wings alongside either Honda or kagawa

He doesn't look very agile, so he might be best suited as the GK. hmm

Except that's a lie.

The real article: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2014/03/pikachu_and_his_pokemon_pals_are_throwing_their_support_behind_japans_world_cup_2014_campaign

It's a special promotion, just like Hello Kitty and other pop Jap characters will be doing.

Real question is will Pikachu be able to keep Kagawa awake on the Manchester United Bench?

My apologies then if this isn't true. l saw this on lGN first, and normally when lt comes to reporting news they are pretty reliable. But l suppose not this time then

Normally if an article there is BS, they get called out in the comments, but l couldn't find anything it was just nonstop back and forth 'lts football not soccer'/Handegg jokes.

IGN is the videogaming equivalent of Goal.com.

Except this Donald Duck look-alike birdie is an ancient symbol.

http://www.jfa.or.jp/eng/general_info/index.html - the official Japanese FA site.

I love how this entire situation proving what news sources are reliable and which ones flat out have 0 journalistic integrity.

I think this all started on reddit as well because that's the earliest posting of someone claiming it to be official; the hilarious part is that the top comment is about Yata-Garasu (the real official mascot) xD
