Guys Pikachu is real and he lives in Australia so grab your pokeballs and get on a flight.
I can just picture you die hard pokemon fans already looking up trips on expedia.
Before you spend your life savings on a trip to Australia to see Pikachu in real life,
you should probably watch this video.
What is happening friends, you’re watching inform overload, I’m charlotte and my favourite
pokemon is charizard.
Charizard was actually my nickname growing up.
Before I get into this video tell me what your favourite pokemon is in the comments
below.
And make sure you check out the description for all our socials.
When I was a kid, more than anything I wanted pokemon to be real.
So when pokemon go came out t was pretty much the next best thing.
Pikachu was actually designed after a member of the rodent family.
After all, he is an electric mouse.
Pikachu’s electricity holding cheeks were actually inspired by squirrels.
You know, how squirrels put nuts in their cheeks.
Only with Pikachu its electricity.
Its yellow color was chosen for the electric motif, and the yellow nicely complimented
all the other first generation starter pokemon, charmander, squirtle and bulbasour.
Pikachu is unfortunately just a character from pokemon, But a real life Pikachu was
just photographed in Melbourne Australia and yes it is as cute as you would expect.
This bright yellow mousey creature is very rare.
It’s a type of marsupial called a golden possum.
This one is just a baby, 5 months old.
She’s an orphan and its thought that she might have fallen from her mothers back.
She was rescued after she was found lying on the side of the road and was taken to the
Bornia Veterenary Clinic and Animal Hospital in Melbourne Australia.
This wee pokemon belongs to a more common species of possum called bushtail possums,
which are usually a greyish color, but this sub species of bushtail possums have bright
yellow fur thanks to a genetic mutation.
Bushtail possums are actually pretty ugly, they just look like big rats.
But the bright yellow fur somehow makes it way cuter.
This genetic mutation means that golden possms lack melanin, which is the pigment that causes
dark hair, eyes and skin in humans.
Golden possums are extremely rare in the wild because their bright color makes it easy for
predators to spot them.
Possums are nocturnal, so its hard for this type of possum to come out at night because
she will probably bespotted by something like an owl.
Creatures with lighter coats are obvious to nocturnal predators.
For this reason, golden possums that are born in the wild don’t usually live very long.Golden
possums are more common in places like Tasmania because there are way less predators.
So far, there are no reports that golden possums have electric powers, and they also don’t
say ‘chu’.
Sorry to disappoint.
But I mean, add a little photoshop and this golden possum pretty much looks exactly like
Pikachu.
This particular possum was actually nicknamed Pikachu.
She’s currently in good health, thanks to the work of the vets at Bornia Veterenary
clinic, but the vets probably wont release her into the wild.
The Australian state of victoria has little pockets of populations of golden possums,
but they keep the locations secret.
It is the plan to eventually be sent to a wildlife reserve, but right now, she’s a
bit anxious.
Possums are really territorial, which makes it hard for them to be released from captivity.
Pikachu is still very anxious, and will stay in long term care for the time being, but
is she gets a bit more feisty, she might be released.
See?
It’s a good thing you didn’t buy a flight to Australia.
Who knows some of you might still go to Australia to see a golden possum in person, but for
now I would say to just wait until detective Pikachu comes out in theatres this summer.
