Its not that people dislike it, its that people prefer Braixen. Most people want Pokemon to 'just get bigger', but outside of the first 2 gens the Pokemon designers rarely have that in mind.

Its model isn't as dynamic as Braixens, and it doesn't have a good movepool or Hidden Ability, unlike Greninja and Chesnaught. If it had more animations and a deeper movepool more befitting a mage, people might like it more.

I still like it, though.

Legit question, why do people prefer Braixen? I am not a huge fan of the line in general, but I think Delphox gets closer to the mark of fox wizard. Braixen just looks awkward to me, and certainly more likely to appear to the furry demographic.
>>
>>25801294
I actually like it and more than Braixen. Just like some people cannot understand how someone can like Delphox, I dont understand how can anyone think that Braixen looks better.

Cuter, doesn't look awkward like Delphox and is just a better design.
>>
>>25801476
I think it looks way more awkward. I think its the way the "skirt" segues into the legs.

To each his own I guess.
>>
>>25801457
because people jerk off to it

delphox needed a wizard hat and a better ability.

i haven't played XY, does it keep the magic wand from its prevo?
>>
Braixen's stick in tail shit is the most awkward design ever. Yeah it's supposed to resemble a witch's broom, but it just looks dumb with the stick stuck firmly in the tail.
>>
>>25801548
Yes.
>>
>>25801294
Could've been riding a broom

What i wanna know
Why no coverage, Greninja gets Coverage, how is a ninja better at mastering the elements then a mage?

I swear they just pulled this shit cause they wanted to push Greninja, mark my words.

All i`m asking for is thunderbolt, is thunderbolt too much? i get not having ice beam, but we could have at least had thunderbolt,also why no focus blast, most other psychics get it, and while i`m at it, why no dark pulse?
>>
It's a mage Pokémon with a pisspoor movepool and a terrible hidden ability.
It's sad when GF made a mage have a shallower movepool then a ninja and a warrior.
>>
>>25801294
Because the in-game model is disgusting. Also I was personally hoping for a quadrupedal fire final evolved starter. I'm so sick of everything turning bipedal and fighting.

I really like it,but as most people said, the model didn't turned out that great. Fire/Psychic is a great type combination for a starter, especially if you're a casual player.

I don't think the 3DS was "ready" for 3D models. Usually just the simpler sprites get a good result if you ask me.

They're furries.
Delphox is better.
>>
Based on its own flaws and not comparing it to Braixen:
>Design could've been more mage-like. Imagine fire runes covering its body, more dynamic looking fur, and the stick transitioning from a wand to a wooden staff with arcane fire at the top. Oh, and the ear hair intertwines to make it look like a witch hat.

>Movepool, as others here have said. It's mostly GF's fault. They make a Pokemon based off a wizard, yet they don't give it the special movepool as one would expect from a Pokemon based off a unique RPG class?
>>
>>25801548
But Magician is great. It's the reason why I love Delphox. Put Overheat or Solar Beam and a herb item on Delphox for maximum fun. White Herb lets you use Overheat twice at full power and lets you steal the items in the 2nd turn while Power Herb lets you instantly fire off a Solar Beam and steal an item the same turn you use it.
>>
>>25801476
Braixen has got a more awkward design though. Especially the neck and legs.
>>
>>25801875
nope. braixen looks like a bipedal fox

delphox is an actual walking triangle. that's the real awkward one
>>
>>25801940
Yeah, most foxes look like they're wearing a skirt and have a tail thicker than their torsos
>>
>>25801952
most foxes aren't bipedal.

but as an anthropomorphic version of what one would look like, it's literally fine
>>
>>25801294
People can't fap to it. That's their answer.
>>
>>25801413
>fox me
It's by far my favourite fire starter, and ties with Sceptile as my favourite starter.
>>
>>25801952
>muh realism
Yeah, that's exactly what the argument was about. Actually, fuck off for coming back with such a retarded reply. And I don't even like Braixen or Delphox.
>>
I didn't like delphox until I saw a scene with it in the anime. Now I like it, kind of. The model sucks.
>>
Fur anything is bad. Especially as a starter.

It isn't pedo furbait like Braixen

There are simply better Fire types, like pic related.

Sceptile is much more popular than Grovyle. It seems like Grovylefags just have horrible taste, rather than relating better to Pokemon who look and act like teenagers.

Delphox looks shabby and dirty. The muddy-ochre color of the robes looks disgusting, and they look torn and tattered.

Braixen is lithe and elegant, as was Fennekin. Delphox looks like it needs a fucking bath and a haircut. It ruined the best starter line, ever.
