Pokemon would ' ve been fine , but it wouldn ' t have been as popular as it is today . The fact that there is no recognizable mascot from Yugioh is a big deal . Here in the U . S . , I can guarantee you more people know what Pikachu is than what pokemon even is . Yugioh can ' t even come close to pokemon in popularity . Plenty of people who never play the game nor watch the show know Pikachu , but very few know Yugioh . Losing Pikachu at this point is really a huge risk , one that does not need to be taken yet . <| sep |> Where was this ? <| sep |> I actually don ' t know how to block people . <| sep |> Haha this has been posted a couple times the last few weeks but it doesn ' t get old <| sep |> The duckface thing doesn ' t even work on women . It makes you look like a rent boy
