Delete as hoax. I ran into the creator of the article a couple times back when he was active, and he had a habit of vandalizing Pokémon articles, such as changing "Pikachu" to "Pichu". The Japanese Wikipedia article for Takashi Teshirogi does list a Satoshi to Pikachu, so my guess is this is a copy of that article. —TangentCube, Dialogues 12:35, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete apparent hoax. Source it or lose it. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 15:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Only 2 ghits for "Satoshi to Pichu" (quoted), and they're wikipedia and a mirror. No ghits for "サトシとピチュ" on japanese pages from Google. Agree with hoax evaluation — TheBilly^(Talk) 15:56, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
