Pocket Monsters Hey HelloPika (Hello Pika) When you turn it on and speak to it, Pikachu will turn around and talk to you. Uses 2 AAA alkaline batteries Operation confirmed It has been used very little, and the batteries still have plenty of life, so I will ship it with them installed. There are some areas where the black paint on the tips of the ears and the nose has come off slightly. Please check the photos. Otherwise, there are no noticeable scratches or stains. Please purchase only if you understand that this is a home-stored item.
