Cosplay Pikachu: Difference between revisions

Cosplay Pikachu (Japanese: おきがえ・ピカチュウ Clothes-changing Pikachu) is a variant female Pikachu that appears exclusively in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. This particular Pikachu is able to be dressed up into five different costumes corresponding to each kind of contest stat (Coolness, Beauty, Cuteness, Cleverness, and Toughness) and learn exclusive moves which are linked to these stats. Cosplay Pikachu can switch costumes anytime by going to any Contest Hall in the Hoenn region and talking to the Pokémon Breeder in the right-most back room. It will lose the move it had with the last costume and gain the move for the new costume. This man also allows you to remove the costume which removes the previous exclusive move after changing form.

If the previous exclusive move was replaced (using TMs, HMs, by level up, or with Move Tutoring) and it has four moves, the player will be prompted to replace a move with the new exclusive move. If no other moves remain because everything but the exclusive move was removed with the Move Deleter and the costume is removed, then the Pikachu will learn Thunder Shock.

Unlike other Pikachu, Cosplay Pikachu is in the Undiscovered Egg Group, meaning it cannot breed.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, after the first time the player takes part in a Pokémon Contest Spectacular, an NPC will give the player Cosplay Pikachu because she says it matches their costume; she will give a male player character Cosplay Pikachu as Pikachu Rock Star, and a female player character Cosplay Pikachu as Pikachu Pop Star. When obtained, it will have its Hidden Ability and its Contest condition in each category is equally elevated.
