My evolution headcanon for Pikachu’s evolution line.

The first line is pretty standard as you would expect.

But then you have Beta Pichu, who evolves into Beta Pikachu (who is heavier and slightly larger than its regular counterpart), then into everyone's favorite cut Pokemon: Gorochu (who does NOT evolve from Raichu in this repurpose).

Finally, we have Tetrahorn Gorochu, the Raichu equivalent of Bloodmoon Ursaluna, a standalone form that its pre-evolution does not evolve into. An Electric/Dark-type.

Lore on Tetrahorn Gorochu to be written at a later time.

This is not Gorochu. This is not official art by Ken Sugimori of Raichu's scrapped evolution. This is fanart of its concept made by Foxeaf on DeviantArt in 2018. It's very good art with a really interesting take on the scrapped Gorochu.

This is all we have of Gorochu, along with the description of it "having two horns and fangs". That's it. Sugimori has never drawn Gorochu officially. It's likely that it was scrapped reasonably early on into development given it never had a front sprite. It comes from an era where Pikachu wasn't even finalized - being more daifuku-like and when it didn't have its cheek spots yet. That's how far back we're talking.

My husband, Hashim, is deteriorating day by day before my very eyes. Due to a severe head and jaw injury, he has been unable to eat or drink normally for over two weeks and is now solely dependent on intravenous fluids. His weight has dropped to 38 kilograms, and he is suffering from severe malnutrition that is threatening his life.

My name is Bilal. I am a 35-year-old father of four children 👨‍👧‍👦 from Gaza. I lived a simple life with my family. I worked hard every day to provide my children with a decent life and a better future.

But the war took everything from us… 💔

In a sudden bombing, my home was destroyed, and the place that once brought my family together became nothing but ruins. I lost several members of my family, and I, my wife, and my daughter were injured, leaving us with deep physical and emotional suffering.

After losing my home, my job, and my only source of income, I became unable to work because of my injuries. My responsibilities became greater than my ability to provide. Today, I live with my children in a small, worn-out tent ⛺ that does not protect us from the heat of the sun ☀️, the cold of winter ❄️, insects 🐜, or rats 🐭 that have become part of our daily struggle.

Even the little food we manage to get 🍞 does not remain safe for us, as the rats eat it, and my children cannot eat it afterward. We are living in extremely difficult conditions, trying only to survive through fear and hardship 💔.

The tent where we live is located near the yellow line, and we have nowhere else to go or a safe place to shelter. It breaks my heart to see my children suffering while I cannot provide what they need 😢.

I ask kind-hearted people ❤️ to stand with me and help us provide medical treatment for my wife and daughter 🏥, secure the basic needs for my children, and help us overcome these unbearable circumstances after losing everything.

Please donate whatever you can to help us and stand by us during this difficult time 🙏. Your support can give my family new hope and help my children have a safer and more dignified life 🤍.

Please share our story with anyone who may be able to help 🤲.

Thank you to everyone who extends a helping hand and feels our pain ❤️.
