Competitive players
/Smogon Zombies Jokes.
:|
yeah god forbid someone likes a pokemon because of its abilities and not just because of how it looks
>>25069447
what group exactly is this comic trying to convey
most of /vp/ likes aegislash's design/concept
>>25069768
They all want to make out with Honedge, NFE creeps
It looks like artifacts from yugioh

>tfw you're willing to use good mons in combo with Bros for the best
Fuck Legends though, especially getting them on cart.
I was attracted to Aegislash before he was Uber.
>>25069447
I kept it in my team because I liked King's Shield, then a Friend wrecked my shit with one because I didn't get the chance stance stuff,and I used one in Spooky Cup, shitty karenfag
>>25069447
Except ending up in the Uber or any of the BL tiers is a death sentence competitive-wise.
>>25069447
Why do people think that competitive use/abilities correlates to popularity? Most players don't even play competitively.
I hardly see people gushing on about Pokemon like Talonflame, Aegislash or any of the generies. Very little merch of those Pokemon too. Most players still think that a non-mega evolved Charizard is one of the strongest Pokemon.
>not liking spooky sword's design

Then why is Greninja being shoehorned into everything, now?
>>25070424
Greninja's a startermon and those tend to get a boost in popularity. It's also banned in Smogon's meta which is not a good thing for most pokemon that aren't there due to a mega or aren't legendary. What are you on about?
>>25070472
You're saying that competitive viability doesn't have anything to do with a Pokémon's popularity when Greninja is practically the Gen 6 mascot and happens to be broken in battle.
>>25070545
Greninja is popular because:
- It's a final stage starter.
- It's a fricking ninja.
- Ash has a ~special~ one.
The fact that it's broken to some degree or another in 6v6 singles isn't really a factor in its popularity.
If you replace 'ninja' with 'dragon', Charizard prior to Gen 6 fits all of this while being fucking terrible competitively - they then intentionally 'overpowered' Charizard to match the fact that it's popular.
>>25070925
It's also retarded.
