What's that thing on his back? Why does he have it sometimes and sometimes not?

>>26344317
Have you never seen a cat arch its back? They put a spin on it and gave something to protrude.

>>26344317
Have you seriously never seen a cat before, OP? It's fur. Most cats have that.

It's simultaneously a reference to the visual gag where a startled cat's hair stands on end, while also looking vaguely like an eruption or growing flame because he is also a fire/ground type.

>>26344317
When cats arch their back like that their hair stands up.

An interpretation of cats' back fur rising when they're stressed/ready to fight.

Are you perhaps an Alien that landed on earth?

This is a good thread.

Not OP, but I honestly did not know that.

>>26344443
You probably haven't watched enough cat videos when you first came on the internet.

>>26344443
Neither did I, the thing is most of /vp/ is females and beta orbiters, so they are the kind of people that own a cat

>>26344443
Were you raised in isolation in a basement?

>>26344480
>muh dogs!
>not being a pet idort and owning cats and dogs, and a goddamn rainbow lorikeet, the best birds.

>>26344480
>cool macho alphas like me don't look at cats

>>26344342
I can hope

>>26344443
You've never seen cats on cartoons do that?

>>26344480
>I don't know something
>to save face I'll engineer an excuse/scenario where knowing something is a bad thing and I'll appear better for not knowing said something

it's his fur sticking up and the oil sliding off

you can see it in its special attack animation

>>26344480
You tried with this weak drag

>>26344317
The Black areas of Litten's fur is actually Oil, the red fur sticks out of the oil when it arches its back.

>>26344480
Now that's some good damage control.

This thread only gets better and better.

>>26344317
if u squirt some detergent on litten it would be completely red

/vp/ BTFO

I have two cats and I've never noticed.

>>26344694
I'm glad your cats live in an environment where they are rarely scared or angry. My current cat doesn't do this but my previous cat was a savage and did it right before he attacked my neighbor's dogs when they walked by.

>>26344317
being this stupid >_>

>>26344694
I knew that cats could do it. But I never noticed any of mine do it.

This guy >>26344443 again, I've never had a pet, well I did have q rooster when I was little but my uncle spent more time with it, since he always used him in cockfights, and later on my neighbor killed it cause it used to wake him up in the morning.I also don't watch cat videos so I never noticed that before.
As for cartoons I did see cats hair standing up but I remember all of their hair standing up, not just the back hair.
Tldr I'm sorry for being a retard.
