Because Game Freak realized that girls play too. Yeah, the design is gay as hell though. 87.5% of being a male with this design.

M-muh masculinity...

You should too

At this point, they're quite literally pandering to the teenagers, whom these designs hit too close at home

Fucking chill. Not everything is about you and your desire for "muh super-manly-man" starters. If you want masculine, you have Luchalitten.

Being a "wants everything but a pop idol" fag is more than suffering. It's living hell.

Don't act like that gender ratio has been anything but an unnecessary burden. Brionne and friends should at least be 50/50 this time.

It's not fair that you all hate it cause it's feminine.

What if I just don't like the damn thing? I don't care if it looks too girly or too manly it just looks awful to me.

>>28937567
Correct. Blaziken is a bit of a stretch though.

>>28937560
I've always seen Torchic, Comusken and Blaizken as girls. Blaizken has the long hair and whenever Gen 3 was new, Yugioh GX was relevant so I sort of associated long haired fire Pokemon with the long haired female Elemental Hero. Mega Blaizken is much more masculine, I'll give you that.
>>28937567
Yes to all of them. While I don't see Snivy as feminine, Servine definitely is, and Serperior isn't too much of a stretch.

>>28935079
another Chikorita/Bayleef/Meganium. a massive mistake on gfs part.

the Chikorita line is easily bottom of the barrel, least favorite of all starters among the masses, why? because it's girly. now they are doing this to a Water starter? fucking GF

FUCK YOU GF, YOU FUCKING RETARDS.

This isn't anything new. Chikorita, torchic, piplup, snivy, and fennekin were the "feminine" ones in the bunch. This one just looks more feminine.

>>28937725
More specifically Charizard.
And Greninja.

>>28937725

>>28937690
Being girly isn't chikoritas problem, the problem is its abysmal move pool

>>28937623
Snivy pretty feminine
But Servine and Serperior are the most Gender neutral looking Starters

But Meganium Delphox And poplio will be the feminine trio
>but muh snek waifu
No

>>28937766
time to realize that you are on 4chan, so you and the other weirdos who like Chikorita because of your sexual fantasies etc are the extreme minority.

Chikorita line is dead last on the rankings of starter mons. you know this. don't deny it. Popplio is destined to be hated just as much.

>>28937725
Charizard X, Blaziken as of Gen VI and Greninja

>>28937567
Only one I can see is Delphox.

Meganium is the most feminine one of its group, but it's really not that girly. It doesn't have girly eyelashes, big red lips, eyeshadow or hair like other feminine designs do. It just has a pink flower around its neck and a cute face. Not nearly as blatantly feminine as Poppmaid.

Blaziken and Serperior are flat out not feminine whatsoever.

Thats fine, its just that 4chan has the idiotic custom of expressing opinions as facts.

I think they look like shit is different than saying that they shouldn't look like that or acting like you know how the hell Pokémon design works.

>>28937510
Since Gen V, they've had obviously gendered starters and it's massively annoying since it correlates with the decline in design. It's a part of the problem.

>>28937856
Only thing even remotely feminine about Serperior is the design on its head that sort of resembles curly hair. But even with that it still isn't nearly as feminine as Poppmaid.

>>28937911
That's enough for my dick to think it's feminine. Of course no starter is as feminine as popmaid though.

>>28937583
It's a huge fucking stretch. It's features are super androgynous for a reason, because GF used to know how to design pokemon for everyone.
>>28937623
The torchic line isn't feminine or masculine, it's androgynous. The serperior line is also pretty damn gender neutral.
>>28937690
Meganium is sort of girly, but it's not feminine. It's designed in a way that will appeal to girls, but you can easily imagine it and its line as guys.
>>28937735
There's a big difference from being less masculine and having makeup, long flowing hair with barrettes, and a seashell bra. GF went fucking overboard. I guess Braixen was testing the water, being the most feminine starter stage before this, maybe the most gendered in general. Delphox could be seen as male or female, even if it's more feminine in ways.

>>28937786
But anon I don't care how femine it is it just looks like shit

OP, can you explain WHY feminine looking starters are a bad thing especially considering one of the possible genders is female?

Serperior is a DANDY, like a French marquis.

It's effeminate, not feminine.

>>28937571
>I don't like it because I think it is a bad design
That's fine

>I don't like it because it looks feminine and I dislike feminine Pokemon in general

That is dumb

>>28937911
>>28938058

Literally all snakes are at least a little bit feminine. Serperior definitely has a masculine, dukish element to its design as well. Not everything has to be one way or the other. Effeminate means having feminine qualities by the way.

>>28937925
Chikorita and co. are definitely feminine. Girly means feminine. Of course they can be male too, but so can Gardevoir and Lapras-- can you really say they aren't feminine designs.

It's ugly.

>>28935196
>implying mid-stage evos aren't supposed to resemble awkward teens about to go into final-evo adulthood

>>28938169
>Literally all snakes are at least a little bit feminine
I agree that serperior is feminine, but why do you think that?

Holy shit are you actually 12
It's a fucking pokemon, they don't give a shit about your "muh masculinity" standards when it comes to design. Machamp can be female. Pink fairy fluffballs can be male.

I dont mind it, but I dont like it. Popplio is different from Chikorita which was fem from the start. Popplio seems gender neutral or boyish.

>>28938211
Some animals just strike me as possessing more femininity or masculinity. Don't cats strike you as somewhat feminine, and dogs comparitively masculine? In some vague universal way.
In spite of being phallic, snakes strike me as very "yin"- flexible, patient, mysterious, knowing, unseen, sensual. Spiders, bees, and ducks, also kinda feminine. Whereas apes, frogs, sharks, hawks seem more "yang" to me.

>>28938877
/vp/ is like 85% furries (tumblr) and underage (twitter, etc.) so of course they're SJWs. They're uneducated retards.

>>28935079
I think I might be coming to terms with it.

Rowlet looks nice, but I used the Grass type last time.

I might actually stick with my choice assuming Luchatigre doesn't sway me last minute.

>>28939105
110% boxing this time.
Unless we might get split evos????

Wasn't Rockruff supposed to have "something in common" with the starters? What could it be? Hopefully split evos family.

I'm picking Rowlet, but Brionne is super cute. Not in a perverted way, but... I don't know, I get a very 'daughter' vibe from it. Like, 'yeah, pumpkin, daddy's coming to your performance, tomorrow.' Most people see their starter as their partner, but I'd see Brionne as my fucking child, man.

Blaziken is pretty masculine. Tall, broad shoulders and narrow hips; its proportions make it look like a chicken-man.

I'm a little put off by when a starter is visually very male or very female since it really should have a universal fit, but... eh. My issue with Brionne is that it just looks like a female variant of Popplio. It doesn't look much bigger or really any more evolved, just... alternate. And it does NOT look like a middle point to Poppmaid, it looks like the start to Poppmaid, like there should be something in between them.
