Pikachu without disguise was in Australia. Taking up the name of a famous cartoon character; this is an infrequent golden colpured possum species. Now the world has its unique Pikachu.

It was rescued in the outskirts of  Melbourne and taken for health care. This displaced animal has a golden fur coat caused by low pigment levels in its melanin. This adorably viral creature is our own modern Pikachu!

Although this creature seems to be very attractive and cute, they are in constant danger in the wild. They are especially visible to nocturnal animals such as owls.

It is reported that there are more sightings of these golden Possums around Melbourne. But they keep the whereabouts a secret, since they might be in danger if their location is revealed.
