They're kinda right tho. If you hate Pokémon then why even come here? At this point you're a shitposter

I agree with all these points, especially number 8 :^)
>ITT: OP is a faggot who says people can't have opinions
Also, the list is about the fucking ashnime, which is shit anyway
Whoever this guy is clearly doesn't know that /vp/ doesn't even like Pokemon
As true as some of it sounds:
>he cares about video games that other people play
>he cares about what other people do on their free time
>"Stop liking what I don't like! "

It's just fun watching you nerds squirm, even /v/ doesn't fall apart into a bunch of girly fagboys like you all are right now LMAO
>>26016712
>Only 22 (as of now) replies
Yeah, we're exploding. It's a meltdown. veepee on suicide watch. Am I memeing right, young lad?
And if you think /vp/ is a actual shrill forum for the franchise, you missed reddit. I can set up a thread right now saying something remotely positive about anything and I'll get called a faggot in mere seconds.
Sorry to your ruin parade, son.

I read that page and it's fucking retarded. A majority of the hate are toward the anime which are not good reasons to hate the franchise itself.
When it talks about the fanbase, all those reasons can literally apply to every other popular franchise out there. It seems to me like you didn't really read it.
The only legitimate criticism I found on there is:
>It's story line sucks
Its a good reason since they use the same formula over and over but it's subjective. A lot of people play the next gen of games because of more new Pokémon.
>It's Stupid
OP made this list confirmed
LMAO LOL look at me, i'm laughing at you, do you feel pissed yet, etc
look here's a picture of laughing women, this is supposed to make you feel bad because you're pathetic kissless virgins and they are laughing at you, yadda yadda
>>26018886
Sarcasm, memes, and jokes aside, this is actually one of the more accurate posts on /vp/ in a long time.
>TopTens
Literally cringier than 9Gag.
>>26017025
Why are you in this fandom if all you like is the monsters themselves? You hate the childishness, you hate the nothing game, you hate the community, and you hate the very premise itself. WHY!?
>It sparked the creation of more animes
Subjective
>The fan base
A company has no rational way to control who enjoys it, and using hyperbolic personal anecdotes.
>Boring
Subjective
>It killed hand-drawn animation
Isn't this objectively a good thing? Now animators can get a lot done quicker, without having to waste materials. Technological advancement is in not way bad.
>It's overrated
Subjective, and personal anecdotes don't count.
>Awful voice-acting
Subjective
>The fans have no lives
Subjective assumptions based on stereotypes.
>It's stupid
Seriously? Anyway, subjective.
>Fosters stupidity of human race
Actually, now that the internet is more wide spread, the accessibility to information has increased drastically, thus objectively increasing the intelligence of everyone who has access. Also, there's no proof that pokemon causes stupidity.
>Because it copied Magic: The Gathering
If you can't see the differences of gameplay then you must be extremely unintelligent.
>>26019540
I don't know, looking around here at the people who have abandoned common sense, I would say pokemon DOES make you stupid.

Really, this list is nothing but the anime and the fandom. It doesn't really touch on anything about Pokemon as a whole. I doubt you could since the aspects of the different sectors of pokemon are so different. The only real flaw I see is that it doesn't focus on expanding the brand. Anyone that doesn't like the more prominent parts of it will miss things that they might've enjoyed because they're not promoted heavily and the noise drowns it out. They have a lot of misgivings about what their older fanbase wants.

>You hate the childishness, you hate the nothing game, you hate the community, and you hate the very premise itself.
Where did I say that in my post? All I'm saying is that a majority of the reasons to hate the franchise are towards the anime and it's all subjective, not all fans watch the anime.
It's a lot of generic answers that can be applied to every other franchise out there and the only legitimate criticism is the storyline. EVERY fan knows thats how the core games work, the spin-offs go in other directions which IMO is pretty good way to expand the franchise.
Anything you're telling me, asking me can literally be applied to every popular franchise out there. Pokémon is no different. Your replies are basically
>stop liking what I don't like!
This is too old
>>26019584
>4chan
>common sense
basing your opinions on what goes on on 4chan is fucking autistic
>>26019776
I don't know fans in real life, that's the only perspective I don't have. Otherwise, I have not seen ANY community online that doesn't also act like children.
I love how the very first point is literally wrong (Sailor Moon and Dragonball popularised anime long before Pokemon existed, and that is just the ones that came to the west).
And the list just gets worse, with flat out wrong facts or pure opinion. They aren't in the slightest bit factual or objective.
I am not even being an apologist, there are some legit issues in Pokemon if you know your shit. This list however was made by a retard.
>>26019892
The only real issue I see most people have is that pokemon is not for them. Go do something actually designed for adults, you idiots.
This smells like Ruggarell.
>>26014330
>HURR POKEYMAN STARDED TEH ANIME FAD

I'm not clicking your link. This was a pretty clever play to get your pageviews up though.
>>26019823
Every fanbase/community have their own cancerous faggots. I don't know what the big deal is
What the say? Did you just say fuck me about? You bitching a little? I'll have you graduate I know top of my Seals in the Navy Classes, and I've been raided in numerous Al Quaeda secret involvements, and I have killed over 300 confirmations. I am a trained gorilla. In warfare, I'm the sniper arm in the entire US force tops. You are targeting me but I'm just another nothing. I will fuck you with precision the wipes of which has never been liked before on this scene. Earth, fuck my marking words. You can get away with thinking that shit over me to the Internet? Fuck again, thinker. As we spy I am networking my secret speaking across the trace and your IP is being prepared right now so you better storm the maggots. The wipes that storms out of the pathetic little thing. You call your life? You're fucking dead kids. I can be any time. I can weigh you in over seven hundred kills, and that's my bear hands. Not only am I extensively accessed by trains, but I have no arms for combatting the entire arsenal United States, and I will use it to to wipe your miserable ass. You shit the faceoff of the continent. If only you could have commented what unholy cleverness your little "retribution" was about. To bring down upon you, maybe you would have fucked your tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're holding the pay, you goddamn idiot. I will drown in shit fury. Sincerely, Your dead fucking kiddo.
>its stupid
>its just plain dumb
THAT WAS REDUNDANT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>26020341
I will tell you right now the only people I know that aren't faggots is the fanart community.
>>26014330
Top one reason pokemon isn't shit:
It's fun.
>all these underageb&s taking what is possibly the most obvious bait in history
GET OFF MY BOARD RREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
