After Xbox's 'juicy' Deadpool & Wolverine controllers went viral, one concept artist has come up with the idea for a 'thicc' Pikachu controller for Pokemon fans.

You've all seen those wild Xbox concepts online, with the gaming giant creating one-off additions honouring everything from Fallout to Far Cry and Final Fantasy. Microsoft knows what it's doing with these viral designs, but with them only being obtainable through sweepstakes, it locks most of us out from ever getting them. 

Old-school gamers might remember the Pikachu-themed Nintendo 64 from back in the day, and taking that into 2024, one concept artist has drawn up their own 'thicc' Pikachu controller. This comes just days after Microsoft showed off its 'juicy' Deadpool and Wolverine controllers as a wink to Shawn Levy's Deadpool & Wolverine. 

'Thicc' Pikachu controller goes viral

Over on X (formerly Twitter), concept artist BossLogic showcased this 'cheeky' Pikachu controller. Serving plenty of cake in the rear, this is definitely a new angle for the fan-favourite Pokemon mascot, showing off a very different pair of cheeks to the ones we're used to.

The account also has concepts for equally curvaceous Mortal Kombat controllers, but for Pokemon fans, this would be a must-buy. This is just in the concept stage and will likely never be made unless you can find a site willing to make customs. Nintendo and The Pokemon Company have a family-friendly image to uphold, and Thiccachu definitely isn't part of that. 

We previously covered the NSFW Wiglett plush that'll make you blush, while the official Pokemon account shared a swear-laden video in 2023 and quickly took it down. It seems that if you want your raunchy Pokemon fix, you'll have to get it in Palworld - if anyone is still playing. 

Deadpool & Wolverine is everywhere right now, with Fortnite also getting in on the action but Call of Duty sadly missing out. Unfortunately, there's no sign of Detective Pikachu 2, meaning we probably can't expect Nintendo to release a special edition Switch with a salacious Pikachu performing a literal thunderclap. Still, we think the gaming giant is missing out by not marketing Pokemon to its more mature audience.
