Silly question!

OK, this is a really dumb thing to ask, but there's sort of a debate raging over here, and I'm hoping someone on the forum will know the answer. :rolleyes:

Is Pikachu from that Pokemon thing supposed to be a chinchilla, or a mouse, or something else entirely? :confused:

Thanks, you can all go back to your nice normal, stupid-debate-free lives. :laugh:

I'm going to say mouse. In Japanese, chyu [or chu] is the noise for mice...

He's classified as an 'electric mouse.' But he's really just a made up creature called a Pikachu.
