Sonichu #15 is the seventeenth issue of Sonichu.

Its cover is an alternate version of the infamous "Zap to the extreme!" cover on Sonichu #0, with a transgender Chris directing Sonichu, who responds, "Yes, I will!!

The original cover did not credit Trickie or Rosechu's Story. For the 2019 revision, Chris scribbled a note in the corner reading: "Also complimenting of Trickie's book, "Rosechu's Story", with permission to quote that book for this one." |

Rosechu's tail as a Raichu is blunt in the 2017 original to show she is a natural female; her tail as a Pikachu is heart-shaped for the same reason. (This itself retconned Sonichu 0, which depicted the Raichu with a pointed tail because Nintendo did not draw male and female Raichus differently in 2000.) In Chris's 2019 revision, he followed Idea Guy's canon and revised the page to depict the Pikachu/Raichu with pointed tails (by drawing the tails on a separate page, cutting them out and gluing them over the original versions). |

 |
Minor date change. The 2017 version gives 14 February 2003, as the date Rosechu and Sonichu meet; the 2019 version is revised to 7 February. Chris wrote the seven on a slip of paper and glued it over the previous date. |
| Dialogue in Rosechu's Story | Revised in Sonichu 15 |
|---|---|
| "Yeah, right" | "Ch-yeah, right" |
| "another Pokemon like me just showing up at the door?" | "another Pokemon for my rose just showing up at the door?" |
| "Woah" | "Woahly" |
| "For the love of -" | "For the love of Arceus!" |
| "Seriously, Kel?? You never once noticed my tail is pointed?!" | "Seriously, Kel?? You never once noticed my tail is pointed?! Much less, my wee-wee?" |
| "You sure put the little one through the wringer!" | "You sure put the little on [sic] through the wringer! Her X-rays showed no fractured or broken bones at all." |
