'''Pokémon Pikachu 2''' was a giga-pet toy that was released in fall of [[wp: 2000|2000]] (shortly after the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} for the [[Game Boy Color]]). The giga-pet toy was a spin-off of {{g|Pikachu}} which was released back in [[wp: 1998|1998]]. Like in Pokémon Pikachu, the user would have to take care of Pikachu. The toy is also designed to look like a Game Boy Color.


The giga-pet also communicates with Pokémon Gold, Silver, and {{v2|Crystal}}'s [[Mystery Gift]] feature. To do this, the user would have to have a Game Boy Color, a copy of any one of the three [[Generation II|2nd Generation]] RPG games, and of course Pokémon Pikachu 2.
