why was he so goddamn edgy?

>>29661042

Because he saw his older brother fail at the Battle Frontier and give up, and resolved to be better at any cost. There was a whole episode about it.

>>29661065
>Paul
>not edgy
Literally half his lines were "pathetic"

he picked the shittiest starter so he had to train even harder
also I like torterra but he is fucking weak

>>29661065
He called everyone pathetic. I mean Ash is pathetic but what kind of 10 year old ever calls people pathetic

>>29661510

Asshole 10-year-olds, which is probably about half of them.

>>29661042
>Throws away one of his pokemon because he thought it was a jobber
>Ash picked him up and let him join up
>It becomes a staple and one of Ash's strongest pokemon to prove Paul wrong

Was Paul the actually the greatest trainer by giving one of his weakest pokemon a will to get better?

His brother killed his entire clan.

>>29661672
Yes

>>29661672
one stat of perfect means you throw it. and also all of ashes other pokemon are shit often the first ones he sees he keeps fucking shit trainer

So incredibly silly how they depicted this ten year old with a manly voice.
Why the fuck can't japan give characters reasonable voices for their ages, shits ridiculous

>>29661042
He saw his role model (his brother) getting curb stomped and thought "shit I don't want to end up like him"

>>29661042
I hate everything about this character. he's like the carbon copy of the primordial fedoratipper personality.

>>29661065
he put his Chimchar's health on the line for selfish bullshit reasons.

Ash did something similar with Treecko once when fighting Brawly but not nearly to the same insane extent that this faggot put that ape through.

>Torterra, stand by for battle
>stand by for battle

this fucking cringy ass line.
when autism knows no boundaries.

>>29661162
Do you think your parents are edgy, too?

>>29662600
and now, he watch his nemesis getting curbstorm but fighting until the bitter end

What do you think he thought when he saw Ash, who defeated him, losing to that shit trainer in Unova?

>>29665587
Have we seen Paul since then? No? Then he's killed himself out of second-hand shame.

Because the show was sorely lacking real conflict of any sort.

Why did he use a new team of full jobbers against Ash? That's always bothered me.

Have Gary and him met?I sure like to see that fight

>>29661042
nothing edgy about an Autistic loser.

Why does he look like Brandon?

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought this.

>>29665709
I noticed this too
If kept his lineup from the lake acuity battle (swap weavile w/ drapion) he probably would've crushed ash, in the league battle only drapion and electivire actually did shit

Remember when Paul was Silver?

>>29667455
he wanted to stay unpredictable I think
he didnt realize Ash would reuse the same team did he?

>>29667971
Even then he could have replaced one of his jobbers on his team with something like torterra ursaring or magmortar and he probably would have won

>>29667971
Why though? What was the point of being unpredictable?
He never seemed the type who won by being unpredictable. He just tried to crush everything with raw power and good strategy, and that worked for him so far.

>>29661042
And some retard said manga is edgy...

>Abused Chimchar both physically and emotionally

He's a massive asshole. I'm still surprised the anime put a character like him in it. Usually it's a hugbox.

>>29668692
>>Abused Chimchar both physically and emotionally
Because it was shit. Couldn't even use it's own special ability.

>>Rude to nearly everyone and even insults Maylene to the point she doesn't want to battle anymore.
Because she was shit. Couldn't even beat one Pokemon.

I always saw Paul as the writers idea of the competitive scene.

This guy was the best character from DP. He actually follows through with Ash's stated objective.

>>29665587
"Pathetic."

I wonder if he won a league yet

>>29668977
Kek.

Now that I think about it, was Diamond/Pearl the best season? I felt like Ash brought out all the stops.

>>29668864
t. Paul

Paul was bad, but not as bad as Trip

>>29661672

It leveled up faster then Ash's other Pokemon since he wasn't the OT.

>>29661682

>>29661042
Because he finally found that faker
and made him eat those words

It is right there with XY for me. Paul was the best rival and I don't think there was a battle more cathartic than Infernape x Electivire.

>>29669855
it's pretty darn good actually.
I don't like Dawn however. I prefer based May.
but the newer Team Rocket motto in DP series was super cool.

>>29669855
Nah, but it was easily the worst. A total rehash of gen 3 but with less interesting characters and more screentime devoted to contest bullshit than actual battles. Plus Dawn is badMay.

>>29672885
I'm talking about Chimchar, not Infernape.

>>29665166
It's super effective.

I think it was. Good rivales, great league, best battle, team galactic was decent enough.
Dawn and Ash actually got nice mons with personality. Maybe they weren't the strongest but they were full of fighting spirit.

>>29661042
To make Ash git gud.

>>29661065
He's sorta edgy he's more retarded than edgy though

>catches 3 starly
>releases 2
>The starly he didn't release fights ash's starly and wins
>then gets released
I dont get it

>>29665709
Because Paul's plan was to let Ash win until close to the end when he would sweep out Ash's worn out team with his two powerhouses. He didn't count for Infernape activating it's Blaze. He could've easily crushed Ash if he wanted to but for some reason he decided to play around with him but got burnt instead.

>>29665709
That confused me too. He could've at least put Torterra (the pokemon that never lost to anything other than Cynthia's Garchomp) on his team. But he was right not to use Ursaring though, Infernape would've torn it a new asshole.

>>29678786
It already did that as a Chimchar.

Twice.
