MatPat: Hello internet! And welcome to another episode of Game Theory, where today we're going to be diving into one of the most baffling questions in the world of gaming: why is Pikachu yellow? Now, I know what you're thinking - it's just a design choice, right? Well, hold onto your Pokéballs, because we're going deep down the rabbit hole with some of the most outrageous theories out there.

MatPat (voiceover): Let's start with the most obvious theory - Pikachu is yellow because it's based on a real-life animal. Specifically, the Pika, a small mammal that lives in the mountains of Asia and North America. But, as always with Pokémon, there's more to the story than meets the eye.

MatPat (voiceover): Some researchers believe that Pikachu's yellow coloration is actually a result of a rare genetic mutation. In fact, they think that Pikachu is an albino Pika, which would explain why it's so much brighter than its real-life counterpart.

MatPat (voiceover): But here's where things start to get really interesting. There are some fringe theories out there that suggest Pikachu's yellow coloration has nothing to do with genetics or real-life animals at all.

MatPat (voiceover): Some people believe that Pikachu's yellow coloration is actually a result of its electric powers. According to this theory, Pikachu's body generates a high amount of electricity, which causes its fur to glow yellow.

MatPat (voiceover): And if that wasn't strange enough, there are some who think that Pikachu's yellow coloration is actually a result of its diet. Specifically, they believe that Pikachu's diet consists mostly of a rare berry found only in the mountains of Japan, which gives it its distinctive yellow color.

MatPat (voiceover): But perhaps the most bizarre theory out there is the idea that Pikachu's yellow coloration is actually a result of its connection to the spirit world. According to this theory, Pikachu is able to channel the power of the spirits, which manifests itself as a bright yellow aura around its body.

MatPat (voiceover): So there you have it, some of the most outrageous theories out there about why Pikachu is yellow. Whether it's genetics, electric powers, diet, or the spirit world, one thing is for sure - this little electric mouse will continue to fascinate us for years to come.
