WTF Pikachu? Pikachu just took the trend of pokemon impressing to the next level by beating Dante. Leon Kennedy looked pretty weak, while after finally gaining some respect, Amaterasu ended up looking like the weakling we originally thought she was. The consensus predictions were Amaterasu - 16.42%, Dante - 32.74%, Leon - 28.44%, Pikachu - 22.66%. The average score was a low 43.66. Sadly, we also dropped below 100 competitors for the first time this contest with 97.
