Since the beloved franchise\u2019s inception over 20 years ago, Pikachu has more or less served as the face of the brand. It makes sense given the character\u2019s prominence across Pokemon\u2019s long-running anime series. The bright yellow creature has even starred in his own live-action film, Detective Pikachu, further cementing his status as Pokemon\u2019s figurehead. But this particular little monster isn\u2019t the only one that fans around the world have a special affinity towards. As recent search data demonstrates, quite a few countries look elsewhere when searching for Pokemon. Google data shows Pikachu is the favorite among Pokemon fans Content creator Patterrz recently shared a map showcasing the \u201cmost popular Pokemon around the world.\u201d EnterTheToyZone designed the map based on Google search data. According to the compiled data, Pikachu reigns supreme in most countries, including many in South America, Africa, and the Middle East. The detailed map reveals a few search-based surprises, though. For instance, Mew and Mewtwo pop up quite a number of times; neighboring territories Afghanistan, Bahrain, and Kuwait seems to especially love Mew. Charizard constitutes another favored pocket monster, appearing the most in searches for regions such as the UK, Portugal, the Czech Republic, and Singapore. Eevee receives a fair amount of love around the world, too, as Finland, Israel, and Estonia search for this particular species of Pokemon the most. Thus, while Pikachu clearly dominates as the favorite Pokemon, a wide variety of other creatures have earned their spot in the limelight, as well. With Pikachu and Ash\u2019s story coming to an end in the anime, it\u2019ll be interesting to see if the status quo changes in the years ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pikachu remains Pokemon fan-favorite as trainers reveal most-searched monsters The Pokemon CompanyGoogle search data reveals which countries prefer certain Pokemon, though Pikachu remains the fan-favorite pocket monster.
