Pikachu sitting on a Poké Ball coloring page

Pikachu sits on top of a Poké Ball, paws resting on the ball, ears straight up and the lightning tail out behind, and the two of them fill the page. It is the pairing that sums up the whole franchise, since a Poké Ball is where a Pokémon lives when it is not out, and Pikachu is the one Pokémon that famously refuses to go inside his. The ball is half red, half white with a black band, and getting that split right matters more than anything on Pikachu himself. The waving Pikachu is the same character standing up, with no ball to share the page.
