vp is the only place I see hate for my monkey bro

>RU
No thx
>>31135502
because blaziken outclasses it in every way.
>>31135502
>fire fighting
>suffers from gen 4 starter syndrome.
Probably the 2nd worst fire starter next to emboar.
>>31135502
>not based Empoleon
>>31135502
Discounted worse and ugly Blaziken, and worst Gen IV starter
>>31135564
>gen 4 starter syndrome.
They are the best starters
>>31135688
>Best starters
>Gen IV
Pick one
>>31135671
>>Blazicuck
>>Heavy hitter with no defense and mediocre speed
>>Outclassed by by other two starters in Gen 3
>>BasedApe comes out as a properly built offensive Pokemon statwise backed up by a huge movepool
>>The best designed starter in an era of great starters
>>GF sees the amount of porn produced after it premiered on Ash Jobs:The series performing improbably well as only a shitmon can in the chinese cartoon
>>Well time to give it an OP special ability
>>Yeah and a Mega-evolution to produce more shit ideas in the generation of shit ideas
Sinnoh remark better fix this faggotry
I just hate monkeys. They're like hairy children who throw their own shit and have abbo faces.
>>31135502
It was a straight up Blaziken clone in an attempt to grasp what it had.
Also it wasted a perfectly good Fighting/Flying theme.
>>31135688
No they are not.
Grass/ground turtle has nothing but it's okay design going for it.
Infernape is literally ghetto blaziken.
And empoleon is one of the few pokemon who have access to swift swim that is never used on rain teams because it excels at nothing.
Literally the worst group of starters in any gen and one of the few flaws of gen 4.

Infernape was the first time we got fire/fighting AGAIN, and the design just embodies that typing so plainly. It looks like it fights and it looks like a fire-type. There's nothing interesting about it. Making his head just be on fire is the most basic way to say "this is a fire-type" there is. Yeah, I get it. Journey to the West. One of the most tired fantasy references there is. Great.
Ash-Infernape was the original Ash-Greninja

>Empoleon
>Swift swim
Wtf are you talking about
>>31135788
>And empoleon is one of the few pokemon who have access to swift swim that is never used on rain teams because it excels at nothing.
It's never used on rain teams because it has no Swift Swim you fucking retarded piece of shit.
>>31135512
Blaziken is only better due to it's HA though. Infernape outclassed it before Hidden Abilities were introduced. And even then, Infernape still has a more flexible movepool.
>>31135788
>And empoleon is one of the few pokemon who have access to swift swim that is never used on rain teams because it excels at nothing.
That's Floatzel not Empeleon. Empeleon just got Defiant which should have been changed to CompetitIve.
>>31135889
>>31135911
You sure?
I swore it got it as a hidden ability.
Oh..it's defiant. That's even worse.
But yes I am in fact retarded and I apologize, however this just proves that empoleon is even more shit then I thought.
I think me and you might be the only ones on this board to actually like Infernape, OP.
>>31135917
Fuck off op
Next gen should have grass/water, water/fire and fire/grass imo
>>31135947
Shit was meant for >>31135942
>>31135502
Erryone's assmad it ripped open their SkarmBliss/Scizor/Heatran core.
>>31135788
Torterra has bulk and sustain and hits hard with wood hammer and earthquake
>>31135502
it looks like it's wearing armor/clothing which is gay
it's a fucking shit eating animal man
>>31135948
WTF would those be?
A burning shrub.
A steam powered turtle
And uhh...sea serpent that breathes fire?
>>31135882
Fuck Jobberfrog, Infernape was and still is the fucking best.
>>31135788
Torterra is honestly not that bad compared to other starters
I hope if it gets a mega it gets the metagross treatment
>>31135917
This,
but the newfags don't know and suck smogon's dick
>>31135970
I was thinking some kind of fiery red flower for grass/fire
Like it spreads pollen that explodes or something
>>31135987
Gunpowder as an exclusive move that makes pokemon weak to fire and if hit with a fire move it loses 1/8 of health from tiny explosion.
>>31135502
>Hate
Fuck off. /vp/ sucks his hot monkey dick more than anyone.
Based Monkey King
>>31135975
Still butthurt about Frog being more popular and relevant thant shit monkey, Noodle?
>>31135854
This pretty much. Never liked monkeys to begin with
It's ugly as sin
Uninteresting design and aspects
Weak or rather mediocre
Soppy anime role
Rape Ape is best.
>>31135707
In that case I'll pick gen ivbecause it has the best starters.
