Pikachu made his debut in Poké mon Red and Green. Due to the influence of TV animation, Pikachu is the most famous Poké mon and has become the symbol of Poké mon series. The prototype of Pikachu has always been controversial. Rats, chipmunks, even chinchillas and rabbits are the archetypes of people's speculation. But as early as 1996 when Poké mon was released, game developers claimed that Pikachu's design was based on a squirrel rather than a mouse.
