Draw Pikachu In Python Using Turtle

Last updated July 3, 2023 by Jarvis Silva

Want to draw pikachu in python then you are at the right place because today in this python tutorial we will see how to draw the famouse pokemon pikachu using python so follow along till the end.

Pikachu is the most loved pokemon from the anime cartoon pokemon it is one of the most popular cartoons, I watched in my childhood, so I decided why not draw pikachu with my python skills.

We will draw pikachu by using the turtle module in python, It is a graphics library which can be used to draw characters, animations, pictures etc.

Python Code To Draw Pikachu


import turtle


def setup(x, y):
    turtle.setx(x)
    turtle.sety(y)
    print(x, y)


class Draw_Pikachu:
