Sonichu #15 was the seventeenth issue of Sonichu. It was announced by Chris on 17 October 2017, directly after he completed Sonichu #12. It was intended as a "Retelling of the Classic First Three Episodes, BUT with More Details; More Commentary and Dialogue from Sonichu and Rosechu".[2], but the bulk of its content was either plagiarised from Rosechu's Story, a Tumblr fan comic, or else devised by the Idea Guys. 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!! Thank you, mother!!!"; Chris believes that his art has improved in the thirteen years between the two books.[3] Work on the comic, after months of hiatus in mid-2019, came to an end on 17 December 2019 when Chris listed Rosechu's Story as TRUE and HONEST Sonichu canon at CWCVille Shopping, selling it beside Sonichu 0 through 13 and making Sonichu 15 the second instalment in the series (after Sonichu 16) to be abandoned while incomplete.

Sonichu mourning his parents' death.

For the most part, Chris adapted Rosechu's Story faithfully, occasionally revise dialogue to his taste. His most noteworthy change to the plot was in deciding to depict the Raichu with a blunt tail (in the Pokémon games, this marks a Raichu as female), even though Rosechu's Story's plot depended on Rosechu having been born male, in an obvious attempt to put his foot down on the much-debated and -ridiculed topic of Rosechu's birth gender. However, the Idea Guys convinced Chris that he was wrong and that Rosechu was really born male,[4] so Chris reversed his alteration in a 2019 revision. They also persuaded him that Sonichu's parents had been gassed to death by Team Rocket's coughing Pokémon.

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.) Chris's 2019, 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.
