Go is cool and all, and it's certainly helping Pokemon grow, but goddamn all these trend slaves who just play it because it's popular.
>>
My local park is filled with families and 8 year olds playing. And the guys playing GO are not even genwunners. According to them no generations after the first ones counts as pokemon. And why the fuck does all think they are so unique and special when they talk about how the new pokemon sucks? And the only argument they have is

gotta say i agree though. all these "fake fans" piss me off and when i point out the fact that they're trend slaves they get all pissy and call me a "hipster" when in fact they are the ones who say "the older versions are better"

I know that people suddenly pretending to have always loved Pokemon is annoying but it's probably good for the franchise long term.

It's good for the franchise, but most of the people I come across who play it make me cringe. I wouldn't be surprised if go loses its popularity the second they start adding in pokemon frpm gen 2 onwards.

I've mentioned this here several times before, but I was discussing pokémon with a girl who was playing GO and I mentioned how it seemed to be people who know nothing about pokémon who play it, to which she responded "I play real pokémon, I've been playing since gen 1! I had an Emerald game!"

Pokemon is literally as mainstream as a videogame can be. It's Mario tier.

Stop acting like it's ever been some secret nerd thing because it hasn't. Pokemon Go was successful because everyone and their grandma knows the franchise.

I was born in 1990 and played "genwun" or whatever u faggots call it. I thought the game turned to shit after they brought in all the new pokemon. It is laughable you queers think you are special because you kept playing this jap game.

>>27571281
You don't seem to understand what a hipster is. I play Pokemon Go because I've been a long-time fan of the series. I genuinely enjoy playing it and that's why I do so.

It's obvious that fags like you play it because it's a way to fit in (not because you actually like the series before). In other words, if Pokemon Go didn't get so much attention, you wouldn't of even known it existed.

A hipster is someone who chooses to dislike something BECAUSE it is popular. I like Pokemon Go regardless of it's popularity. The only thing I don't like is people like you.

So basically, "if ya act like a trend slave ima call you one".

>>27571631
You still don't seem to understand the concept of being a fan and being a trend slave. God, you're autistic.

I've been playing since Gen 2, personally, but that's not the point. I'm not arguing that you have to have been playing since Gen 1, 2, 3, whatever. Hell, you could've started in Gen 6. That's totally cool.

But when faggots like you say you're a "fan" of something, but in reality you only say you like it because it's a way of fitting in, then that's when I have a fucking problem with you. It happens all the goddamn time, with a bunch of different video games, TV shows, music artists, etc.

>How is that not hipster

Magnemite is a steel ball with a cyclops eye. The ball itself is magnetic. It's evolution highlights the magnetism. That's a pretty damn good design. Better than "just add another scoop of ice cream" because Magnetom actually has a reason to be "3 screws stuck together"

Holy fuck genwunner alert.

Are you seriously this blinded by nostalgia? Muk represents water pollution, Wheezing is air pollution, Garbador is land pollution.

If Voltorb and Electrode were Gen 5 Pokemon, you'd be losing your shit. And you know it. Same deal with Magnemite.

Geodude? Please tell me what you think Geodude is. Other than a rock with arms? Really?

Muh hand cannon!

We are talking about designs here. Muk is designed on a "sludge monster". Perhaps you've heard of 1920s movie "The Creature of the Black Lagoon" as another famous slime creature.

>If Voltorb and Electrode were Gen 5 Pokemon, you'd be losing your shit. And you know it. Same deal with Magnemite.
Projecting much.

Magnemite/Magneton are pretty damn intelligent designs. Three magnets stuck together because of magnetism.

>Geodude? Please tell me what you think Geodude is. Other than a rock with arms? Really?

Yes, and it's one of the most common monsters motifs of all time. I don't see the point you're trying to make here.

>>27571964
That's because Voltorb looks pissed that someone mistook him for a Pokeball. Electrode looks happy he's about to attack something. They have lots of personality.

OP here, scratch that, sorry, I just realized how egotistical this whole thread was. The entire point of it was to, for at least the 2000th time, state distaste for the improper use of the word "fan". This issue is very important to me, and indeed others care about the frivolity of its misuse among the plebeian masses, and thus sought to find comfort in the security of my own adoption of the term - I have played since the second gen, you see, and thus it is endangering to my sense of image/identity when one deems oneself a "fan" without veracity in their claim. I will delete this thread, they'res no need to keep up such redundant drivel.

>>
>>27572142
More isn't always better, for example I think Garbodor's two antennae things only serve to the detriment of the design. I think it's saying something when Muk is relatively popular but the only time anyone mentions Garbodor is when defending it from genwunners. /vp/ is on this crusade against Muk as a petty revenge against genwunners but it's a fact that it was beloved by kids back in the day, while Garbodor simply isn't.

I think it's more reasonable to make a few oddballs in an original game though. By Generation 5 if you're still making trashbag and icecream cone pokemon you're literally just murdering a fanbase for a cash grab.

Shit happens.

Gen 1, 2, 3 are the only ones I consider 'real Pokemon'. All the rest are Gamefreaks flavor of the month farted our creation.

That's why they consistently return to the designs which are most reliable and healthy (Gen 1).

>>27570131
You realize how autistic it is to "call someone out" for something as stupid as being a "trend slave"? They probably get defensive because they realize they're dealing with a fucking idiot and want to stop talking to you.
>>
>>27573092
They wouldn't get so defensive if they had a logical explanation, now would they? Unless they get butthurt over the slightest criticism.

That depends. Does saying "not an argument" automatically make whatever was said before not an argument, regardless of whether it was or not?

>You realize how autistic it is
Not him, but I realize you don't know what autism is, so it sounds like you're some dumb underage trying to fit in using the autism buzzword.

>trend slave
that's literally what they are. They're gonna drop it once another dumb mobile game comes

>They probably get defensive because they realize they're dealing with a fucking idiot
Very inane statement here, probably for the sole purpose of ad hominem . Who gets defensive around an idiot? If they're getting defensive, it's because they haven't come to realization of who they are and why they're playing GO. I'm playing it myself, and I know its a fucking fad.

They probably just don't the slightest shit what some autistic neckbeard stranger has to say about what they choose to do with their free time. Frankly, you're lucky to not get punched in the neck for being so rude to someone you don't know.

You're assuming I just go up to people and say "YOU CAN'T DO THAT". I'm not a dumbass. You can follow whatever trend you want of you feel that it somehow validates your existence, but I don't have to agree. I'm just telling you what I think about it.

Some of the things, yes. The other ones were posts/things said to other people I know.

Yeah too bad they do a terrible job at that. Nobody cares that Voltorb and Electrode fill a JRPG staple of their designs are horribly uninspired. Foongus and Amoonguss do a way better job, since they aren't literally just Pokeballs with eyes.

I showed my friend some Pokemon for Gens V and VI and i was pleasantly surprised when i found out most of them LOVED Greninja and Heliolisk. Two of them mentioned, and i quote "they look like they're from the original games". It's a shame that they instantly proceeded to call all the others shit and " not real pokemon". I just don't understand why people are so black or white when it comes to value. Things are either ABSOLUTE SHIT or BEST THING EVER with no inbetweens.

Now that i think about it, i can kinda understand them liking Greninja because he's pretty well known even amongst those that don't actively follow the series, but i'm still surprised that they liked Heliolisk. At least that's two more pokemon than what i expected them to like. Maybe they can be the entry point for modern pokemon in their case.

I never denied it was a fad, and most of them probably don't either.

>but that's what they are

Do you go around telling muslims they are terrorists because "that's what they are"? You can keep your thoughts to yourself instead of shoving your opinion at someone the moment they do something that annoys you.

So like the original games then?

I think you're taking his word a bit too literally; I doubt he pointed his finger and called them "TREND SLAVES" in a nagging tone.

But the term trend slave is pretty appropriate to describe them, despite it being a bit rude. I bet you could find bike race, flappy bird, candy crush, and other garbage in the download history of said people. We've all met this type of person; they have no depth to them and have an iota of passion for anything except for what is currently popular. They "love" what's currently popular.

If said type of person claims to be a pokemon fan after watching half a season of the anime when they were young and playing GO for a couple of weeks, I'd have to disagree, especially if they boast every pokemon after gen 1 is garbage.

Also, your comparison is overly hyperbolic. Being called a trend slave is nowhere near as hateful as being called a terrorist for what religion you subscribe to.

>everyone playing GO on their phones
>talk to them about Sun and Moon
>everyone is super hyped and loves the Alola formes and new Pokémon

I feel lucky, I've never had too much of a genwunner problem. My friends are casuals, but they don't instantly reject the newer Gens just for being new.

I know like nothing about Japanese folklore but I think "rock with arms" is some kind of youkai.

>Better than "just add another scoop of ice cream"
Wow, this sentence right here proves how retarded you are and makes your entire post worthless.

Vanillite is a small cone of hard ice cream in a cake cup (the flat-bottomed cones used for kids ice cream). When it evolves to Vanillish, it gains a sugar cone that is also a stalagmite. It also becomes a soft serve swirl. Vanilluxe is a sundae, with ice crystal nuts, a "straw", and a two scoop cone.

You saying Vanillite "just gets bigger" after defending Magnemite after someone said it "just gets bigger" makes you look retarded

That's the mascot for a snack brand, it's just a funny coincidence they look kind of alike.
