# PikaChu
Comes from the Japanese Pika (onomatopeic word for electrical sparking) and Chu (rat/mouse).
Essentially 'Electric Mouse'

# However,
Pikapika is onomatopeic, but more generically applied to shiny objects, perhaps, one might say, "sparkley" objects (such as electrical sparking).

E.g.
Diamante jewellry on QVC = pika pika
Sparks round pikachu = pika pika

# Hey
I think you just coined a new term, use "Pika- Pika" instead of "Bling-Bling" and confuse Americans.
