Adidas, the designers of the Japanese National team kit in Brazil, announced the news that the iconic Nintendo character along with familiar faces of the franchise, such as Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle among others, will be backing up the "Samurai Blue" in their World Cup quest after both Adidas and the Nintendo franchise reached an agreement.

I loved pikachu as a kid. I kinda miss chubby gen 1 pikachu though, ever since pikachu lost weight he kinda became a douche.

PIIIKKAAAA!
Have they seriously run out of original ideas? I'd have held a contest for something original instead of reusing the pokemans.
