Surfing Raichu! Last night, we got confirmation that Raichu’s Alola incarnation is real in Pokemon Sun and Moon, but ever since the leaks hit, people have been fascinated with the character’s new surfing form.

OK, OK. It looks more hovering than riding the waves, but who cares? This is ELECTRIC SURFING.
トレンドに「ライチュウ」が入っている!
アローラライチュウそのものもすごいけど、ライチュウがこんなにも注目されているというミラクル!!

And surfing on its tail! Genius.
No wonder “Raichu” (ライチュウ) started trending in Japan. The fan art, however, has been global.

いろんなアローラライチュウを妄想して絵にしようと思ってたけど、まさか本当に現れるとは…!!
最近のライチュウの優遇っぷりはこの布石だったのですね、アロライさん! pic.twitter.com/sDeBRu1Tq7— カフェ (@Cafe_Raichu) August 11, 2016

Hmmm… Nope. Not a fan.
Unless something has not been publicly shown off for more than three minutes, that headline is not a headline.
Can you link me to your site?
…qué?
Aloha Raichu kind of looks like a playful Sun Wukong
