Pokémon Go players have criticized Niantic after becoming fed up with developers making Pikachu uninteresting to capture in the game.
Pikachu, to no one’s surprise, has been in Pokémon Go since the beginning. However, the community is becoming increasingly tired of seeing the iconic pocket monster, with many even avoiding capturing him altogether.
Pokémon Go player TheLastStoryTold complained: “No Niantic, I don’t want another Pikachu with another hat. Honestly, Niantic made Pikachu the most tasteless Pokémon for me. I don’t even capture one when I see one anymore.”

This top comment pointed out that they “can’t even evolve,” as another trainer responded: “That’s the biggest crime. Raichu is my favorite so I like collecting hatted Pikachu when they can actually evolve!”
Another added: “Once in a while they can. I have 16 different types of event Pikachu in my Pokédex, and 4 types of event Raichu. But yeah, it’s so annoying.” Another said that “Last October’s Detective was cool because he could, but beyond that I don’t think I’ve had one since.”
Many made fun of Niantic, “What about a Pikachu with a hat.. on its tail? Go ahead Niantic, this one, I’ll give it to you.” One trainer summed it up simply by saying: “Hat Pokémon are generally boring. They can’t be sent to Home, most can’t evolve, and most don’t look good.”
Some trainers admitted that they “really liked Captain Pikachu” and other Pika variations, but overall, players asked the developers to add new and better costumes for different Pokémon. “Most costumed Pokémon that aren’t Pikachu are random Pokémon with flower crowns and it’s boring,” one said.
Various trainers offered their suggestions that they would like to see. These included popular suggestions like “Chenipan with a cowboy hat” , “Pichu with pointy ears” , “Abo with a ridiculous scarf” , “Hélionceau with a Nemelios mask” , “Insolourdo with a cape” , and many more. Moreover.
