Half of me believes this. Sonic and PIkachu were and still are wildly popular. A kid can easily fuse them together and it probably happens at least a thousand times a year.
Pokémon debuted in the states in late 1998 with the GBA games, well before the show released. If you’re gonna doodle on some crumpled paper and try to pass it off as legit, you could’ve at least spent 5 seconds on google making sure you got the date correct
Uh, no! You'd better delete it. Our Supreme Leader, Christine Chan Sonichu, is the cpu goddess Blue Heart and will not tolerate blasphemy and will beat you up when the two sister dimensions successfully merge.
When I was a kid and would draw little sketches with my dad, I would write the date. I have little drawings I did of Mario and Princess peach from like 2009 that were dated by me.
to be honest this could be real because kids do make up the most weirdest fusion characters ever
but on the other hand, you might have just crumbled up the paper drew on it and said "1997" on it so this does look fake
This is the best "Ackchyually" opportunity I've had in a while. As a teen in the US, I had first heard of Pokemon after the report of seizures on the news from the Porygon episode. I looked it up, and it had an air date of December 16th, 1997, so TECHNICALLY it was possible for a non-anime or manga fan to be aware. Not to mention it was already a craze in Japan at that time, so not unreasonable to have heard about it
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denn%C5%8D_Senshi_Porygon
Definitely. I wasn't a big anime/manga fan or a weeaboo at the time, but I was paying attention to the big trends in Japan in case there was something else like Dragonball Z coming out. I could be remembering wrong, but I thought I remembered hearing about it in mainstream game magazines well before the US release due to the popularity in Japan
From 1998 to 2000, Pokémon was exported to the rest of the world, creating an unprecedented global phenomenon dubbed "Pokémania". By 2002, the craze had ended. So either OP just crumbled up a piece of paper and did the exact thing we think he did, or he was living in Japan at the time.
To be fair, even if that isn't true, kids can totally imagine that kind of stuff. I was too old when Pokémon went out so even if I liked it and played it, I wouldn't have tried to imagine stories featuring some crossover characters but when I was younger I used to do that kind of stuff with characters and licenses I liked.
So, yeah, there totally could have been some Sonichus or stuff like that before Chris or during the same times but these kids weren't on the internet and were probably younger than Chris.
Not totally out of the realm of possibility. Your cousin might've tapped into the collective unconscious to access sonichu. Like how all ancient civilizations had swastika design. Maybe a bad example, lol, but you get what I mean.
Real or not, something like this could’ve been huge in the classic Chris days. Now if Chris saw it they’d just go “nuh-uh” and leave it at that, if they even decided to acknowledge it at all.
Paper with a date isn’t proof it was made on that date as where Chris to his credit has a well established online history and multiple sources that documented everything
Anyone can easily take out a piece of paper, make a doodle and mark it with a past date, crinkle it for good measure, and then upload it to reddit. The fact so many people are taking this at face value really goes to show how many people are just as gullible as Chris
>So many people are taking this at face value
No smartass, get off the high horse. It's the same exact deal as the Ian Brandon Anderson shit back then, we all know it's fake but it's funnier to play along and pretend it's true.
But also combining pikachu and sonic would make sense. I was into both as a kid and def daydreamed about oc sonic characters and pokemon. I dont think its far fetched at all.
Also, even ignoring that, why would we take someone uploading some doodle they claimed is from a certain date at face value? I could easily sketch up something like this, mark a date on it, crinkle it, and upload it claiming its from a certain date. There's no evidence besides a claim and evidence that isn't at all difficult to have made up.
It would be weird to date a doodle as well. Not impossible but between that and the wrinkled paper, (Jonathan Frakes voice) "this is fiction, we got you, it never happened"
I guess your cousin could say that his Sonic-chu is an original creation, in competition with Chris’s Sonichu. It’s like comparing Dr. B to Dr. Thunder sodas
They say that's a good way of telling if a retro concert poster is fake or not.
If it says "PINK FLOYD - May 23rd" it might be real
If it says "PINK FLOYD - May 23 1968" it'll be fake. People need to know what date the concert will be, but the year will be assumed as the current year.
How old is everyone here? Pokemon didn't even come to America until late 1998. Even though it was out in Japan in 1996, I highly doubt a kid in America knew it even existed. Nobody drew Sonichu in 1997 🙄
My cousin went to Japan in 1997 with my aunt and uncle on vacation. Right about that time Pokémon was popular in Japan and he became obsessed with it. He actually still has some cards he bought on the trip
I'm not trying to be a dick, but come on man. Your cousin traveled to Japan learned about Pokémon. Then came back invented Sonichu, dated the art. Then it survives for almost 30 years and just happens to be found by you. A person who is deep in chris chan lore and posts on the chris chan sub. Can you understand why people aren't going to believe you?
It's quite possible, since Sonic The Hedgehog and Pokémon are quite popular. So, if it truly is true, I just cant believe that someone thought of it first.
With the “sonichu is a demon” theory it looks like sonichu attempted to get your cousin before moving onto Chris, a weaker vessel. He was barely spared, dodged a bullet.
The ink would be more faded if it was from 1997
The fact that it says "Sonic-chu" is proof that PewDiePie drew it.
Half of me believes this. Sonic and PIkachu were and still are wildly popular. A kid can easily fuse them together and it probably happens at least a thousand times a year.
Sure, but that fake crumple tho
This can’t be fake guys the date is right there. There’s two “C”s ofcourse a legit 12 year old made this! Look at the crumpled marks!
Make this liquid Chris 2.0
Why would anyone believe this is real
Pokémon debuted in the states in late 1998 with the GBA games, well before the show released. If you’re gonna doodle on some crumpled paper and try to pass it off as legit, you could’ve at least spent 5 seconds on google making sure you got the date correct
Gba? I think you mean gameboy
Your cousin is in big trouble, kid
Uh, no! You'd better delete it. Our Supreme Leader, Christine Chan Sonichu, is the cpu goddess Blue Heart and will not tolerate blasphemy and will beat you up when the two sister dimensions successfully merge.
I always knew Ian Brandon Anderson couldn't come up with anything original
Don't let Chris see this....
I really fucking want him to see it, I am hoping so hard that this will give some sort of reaction
lets be absolutley fucking honest he would 100% sue
He most definitely would
What kid would right the year on a drawing
When I was a kid and would draw little sketches with my dad, I would write the date. I have little drawings I did of Mario and Princess peach from like 2009 that were dated by me.
I dated drawings too
I dated drawings until she cheated on me
Lol, imagine if Chris managed to view this. I would like to see what happens.
Fake, you made this last week. Goddamn I'll never understand why ppl lie abt shit like this. Because ppl date meaningless doodles...🙄
I would date my drawings when I was 8
Carbon date the paper or it didn’t happen
FAKE
And gay?
definitely
Chris has infringed on your cousin's IP. I recommend taking immediate legal action
If Chris found out about this there’s a non zero chance he’d have a hissy fit.
to be honest this could be real because kids do make up the most weirdest fusion characters ever but on the other hand, you might have just crumbled up the paper drew on it and said "1997" on it so this does look fake
Im surprised he didn't use tea to make the paper look a bit aged 😆
Hell yeah awesome profile pic
thanks bro
Did your older cousin login to your RuneScape account?
i want to believe
Pokémon wasn’t a thing in the US in 1997, more like late 98
This is the best "Ackchyually" opportunity I've had in a while. As a teen in the US, I had first heard of Pokemon after the report of seizures on the news from the Porygon episode. I looked it up, and it had an air date of December 16th, 1997, so TECHNICALLY it was possible for a non-anime or manga fan to be aware.

Agreed, I was sent an investment tape in 97/98 showing me how big it was in Japan. I wish I still had that tape to be honest.
Definitely. I wasn't a big anime/manga fan or a weeaboo at the time, but I was paying attention to the big trends in Japan in case there was something else like Dragonball Z coming out. I could be remembering wrong, but I thought I remembered hearing about it in mainstream game magazines well before the US release due to the popularity in Japan
September 8th 1998
From 1998 to 2000, Pokémon was exported to the rest of the world, creating an unprecedented global phenomenon dubbed "Pokémania". By 2002, the craze had ended. So either OP just crumbled up a piece of paper and did the exact thing we think he did, or he was living in Japan at the time.
And then it had to catch on, so more like 99
Lmao fuck OP
Yeah fuck him
Why would you do this? Why would you go on the internet and tell lies?
To be fair, even if that isn't true, kids can totally imagine that kind of stuff. I was too old when Pokémon went out so even if I liked it and played it, I wouldn't have tried to imagine stories featuring some crossover characters but when I was younger I used to do that kind of stuff with characters and licenses I liked. So, yeah, there totally could have been some Sonichus or stuff like that before Chris or during the same times but these kids weren't on the internet and were probably younger than Chris.
I guess you can say that Your cousin dodged a Bullet lmao.
Uh huh you totally didn’t just crumple up a piece of paper with your doodle on it and write 1997 on it
Yeah I totally wrote the year on all my stupid doodles when I was a kid. I definitely had the foresight that I would want to know in the future.
Ah yes, the mandela tail, too👌
In an alternate universe your cousin would've had his own saga battling Chris to be the original Sonichu creator.
Not totally out of the realm of possibility. Your cousin might've tapped into the collective unconscious to access sonichu. Like how all ancient civilizations had swastika design. Maybe a bad example, lol, but you get what I mean.
Sonichu is a demon that lurks in the collective unconscious of terminally online internet users and Chris was the perfect avatar
Imagine if the first instance of Sonichu turns out to be a cave painting by an ancient satanist cult
You’ve just drawn this and scrunched up the paper. Come on.
Time to radiocarbon date it
The writing can be dated by a forensics expert if necessary
There's a fortune in sonichu medalians and comics at stake here.
Real or not, something like this could’ve been huge in the classic Chris days. Now if Chris saw it they’d just go “nuh-uh” and leave it at that, if they even decided to acknowledge it at all.
Ik man classic Chris was some Saturday morning cartoon type shit. Sigh where do the times go
this is most likely fake, but it's still funny cuz Chris would definitely lose his shit if he saw this
I don't know, Rick...
"James (censored)" James can be Jimmy. Are you Jimmy Hill?
Paper with a date isn’t proof it was made on that date as where Chris to his credit has a well established online history and multiple sources that documented everything
Holy shit get it copy right registered at Virginia library of congress
Awww yeah! Chris isn’t as “original” as he thought he was
Now you can sue Chris for his merch income!
cap
Gas Chris?
Plasma?
Wait, what was ABL? He was also a Chris created in the Vierges en colère project
Anyone can easily take out a piece of paper, make a doodle and mark it with a past date, crinkle it for good measure, and then upload it to reddit. The fact so many people are taking this at face value really goes to show how many people are just as gullible as Chris
>So many people are taking this at face value No smartass, get off the high horse. It's the same exact deal as the Ian Brandon Anderson shit back then, we all know it's fake but it's funnier to play along and pretend it's true.
Some of us are, not most of us though. Most of the comments I saw here are were just being naive.
But also combining pikachu and sonic would make sense. I was into both as a kid and def daydreamed about oc sonic characters and pokemon. I dont think its far fetched at all.
It's The Merge
[удалено]
Also, even ignoring that, why would we take someone uploading some doodle they claimed is from a certain date at face value? I could easily sketch up something like this, mark a date on it, crinkle it, and upload it claiming its from a certain date. There's no evidence besides a claim and evidence that isn't at all difficult to have made up.
I have no idea what he did with it before it was buried with the other stuff. He probably crumpled it up to throw away but saved it for some reason
It would be weird to date a doodle as well. Not impossible but between that and the wrinkled paper, (Jonathan Frakes voice) "this is fiction, we got you, it never happened"
That show was awesome. Cmd Riker made a hell of host too.
Sonichu and Sonic-Chu. CWC would also throw a fit if he saw how your cousin drew the arms.
Somehow sonichu is even less original than originally thought
I guess your cousin could say that his Sonic-chu is an original creation, in competition with Chris’s Sonichu. It’s like comparing Dr. B to Dr. Thunder sodas
I always date my random doodles.
They say that's a good way of telling if a retro concert poster is fake or not. If it says "PINK FLOYD - May 23rd" it might be real If it says "PINK FLOYD - May 23 1968" it'll be fake. People need to know what date the concert will be, but the year will be assumed as the current year.
That’s my cousins doing, he was a strange kid
I did this as a kid
How old is everyone here? Pokemon didn't even come to America until late 1998. Even though it was out in Japan in 1996, I highly doubt a kid in America knew it even existed. Nobody drew Sonichu in 1997 🙄
My cousin went to Japan in 1997 with my aunt and uncle on vacation. Right about that time Pokémon was popular in Japan and he became obsessed with it. He actually still has some cards he bought on the trip
oh you are such a bad bullshitter lol
Well, how convenient! I am sorry I doubted you. I was put in my place.
I'm not trying to be a dick, but come on man. Your cousin traveled to Japan learned about Pokémon. Then came back invented Sonichu, dated the art. Then it survives for almost 30 years and just happens to be found by you. A person who is deep in chris chan lore and posts on the chris chan sub. Can you understand why people aren't going to believe you?
OP’s cousin’s father must also be the uncle who works for Nintendo, and that’s how the cousin got that insider knowledge! /s
sonichu copyright protection death squad get him
Proof that Sonichu's "copyright" is a fraud and that Chris is nothing but a plagiarizer and subject to legal action!
The Lawsuit Saga
Nothing personell kid.
How did the paper hold out so well? All my old notebooks have yellow pages now even though they were in the closet
It was buried under a bunch of other papers, probably hasn’t seen the light of day since the early 2000’s
If he acknowledges it, it’ll just be more dimensional merge word salad bullshit with a sprinkling of foreseens and a dash of meditate on that.
It's quite possible, since Sonic The Hedgehog and Pokémon are quite popular. So, if it truly is true, I just cant believe that someone thought of it first.
Must have been a terrifying jump scare to see this in your grandparents family photos
I was shocked for sure
Zapped to the extreme, one might say perchance
The Jimmy Hill incident...
Jimmy is nickname for James 😳
Chris has mastered the art of time travel. Simple as.
So that means I’m related to him? :(
Now you get to tell your friends that you're God's nephew!
Yay I’m somewhat cool
James Rolfe
He's too busy for that
No time
Muh Sonichus
He certainly looks more appealing than sonichu does. He’s doofy, but in a cute way.
I dare you to give your cousin a deep dive into Chris lore, starting with, ”funny you made that character, cause someone else did…”
I’ve already told him, he’s on part 27
With the “sonichu is a demon” theory it looks like sonichu attempted to get your cousin before moving onto Chris, a weaker vessel. He was barely spared, dodged a bullet.
Yeah
That’s one way to look at it
Nothing chris creates is original
ya dont say?
It was a prophecy of what was to come.
I’m going to dropkick my cousin next time I see him for all of this happening
Life imitates art
Assuming this is true and honest, it is disappointing that we missed out on this arc.
Honestly I could TRY to rile Chris up but it’s just not worth it at this point
You still might. Chris looks at this subreddit sometimes.
Duly noted 😈
I mean I doubt it was such an "original" idea I bet tons of people imagined it
True.
I think a lot of people did around that time.
Once again, a testament to the fact that copyrighting Sonichu is total BS
If you needed proof of the merge, there it is. Look to your sins, trolls! The merge is cumming!
Either you are one of Pamperchu’s diapers or your cousin is possessed by the Chagrin
What the fuck is pamperchu
Save yourself
You don’t wanna know
My cousin is rather strange sometimes, possession is not out of the realm of possibility
