Never used on any of my teams even on my Y playthrough when you're forced to use one to mega evolve for the first time, it was immediately boxed afterwards. Even when I first seen it as a kid, I had such 'meh' reaction to is, I still do even after discovering whats its based on. Yeah, I get it it's basically a ninja wolf but it I'd never truly liked it, I don't hate it, but at a the same time it's not something I would put in the effort to get,

Breloom and Heracross. I don't hate them but the way their fans act like these two are the second coming like wow calm the fuck down

I think it was the emotional Lucario film
>>
The Smash model for Lucario always looked really weird to me. Pokken model less so. The Rayman nose and anime mouth just looks...off in 3D.
>>
autists adore him because he's cool and strong. normiesthink lucario is cool too. everyone loves lucario except autists with a contratian complex. I only got into lucario as a fairy counter and wow. Its been a wild ride until tapu lele came out. but even still I have things to deal with her and hes still strong. I didnt even make him shiny or anything when I injected him. I jusf love lucario and im not even a fur fag
>>
>>32821304
That's interesting. I mean, I like Heracross myself, but I have never seen other fans who act like it's the best thing to ever come in Pokemon. Maybe I'm not looking at the right places.

It has no appeal. Its popularity is completely forced. It's a clusterfuck of ill-conceived design elements straight out of a deviantart OC. I'll give its mega credit for trying to salvage it, but a temporary form is not enough.

Fuck you Lucario is cool. He's my 2nd favorite mon. I bet you don't like Zoroark either. Just because they're anthro in design doesn't mean only furries like them. I'm not a furry.
>>
>>32822086
Whatever you say furfag.

Zoroark is a decent design, but those as your top two? You're not fooling anyone
>>
Zoroark has a bad design. It's way too skinny for its massive hair, and the lipstick(?) looks real out of place on something with fur

What the hell is the black stuff anyway? It doesn't look like fur, more like couch leather. And if Lucario's a steel type, why to the spikes look like bone here?
>>
>>32822630
Why does it have shorts? Why is its tail deformed? Why do its spikes face up instead of forward? Why the chest spike? Why just three spikes or any at all? Why is it mouth at the base of its muzzle turning its snout into a big jew nose? What are those tumors on its head? Why the tiny torso? Why is it shaped like a dick and balls? Where is the fucking steel?

>Yeah, I get it it's basically a ninja wolf but it I'd never truly liked
Its more like a shonen wolf(aura sphere being the equivalnet of ki blasts) with elements of wolverine(when it uses metal claw), a jedi(when it uses bone rush), and maybe Sly Cooper(bandit-looking mask. Why does a fighting type wear a bandit mask anyway). In short, its a clusterfuck of numberous "cool" ideas into a blender of character design. I feel that Im supposted to like it, but I can't help but assume that its a creation that an austistic child from deviantart would design. It suffers by being too orginal to the point that you would end up being questionable if you ignore the design's intended appeal.
>>
>>32821471
No appeal? He is in fucking everything and people eat it up. Lucario has been described as a new type of pokemon and a lot of people over in Japan cite is as reinvigorating the series when it first came out.
>>
>>32822743
Being shaped like a penis with a dog head makes him the perfect furry pandering vehicle.
>>
>This is just my two cents, but

Dark colors, 'ninja' like headband over the eyes, random spikes, can sense 'auras', highly anthromorohic.. all reasons why people 12-25 would like it.

Wait. I'm 30 and I like it. Shit.

I don't thinks it the best design ever, but I understand the appeal for it. Mega Lucario fixed a few issues, but made a few worse.

I'll agree about Zoroarks design being a little odd. The whole 'its not a tail, it's just long hair' thing threw me at first. (Same with Lycanroc midnight), but what really got me was when I played X/Y. That 3d model. That weird, whole face looking like a snake when it opened it's mouth. Eesh.
>>
i feel as though lucario is a really great design balance with edge, coolness, and cuteness. since it covers a wide range of appeals, thats why normies and autists both eat it right up
not only is the design good, but the typing is based and movepool even better
the lucario movie is definitely one of the best pokemon movies ever made too, so that helps

>upright spikes magically turns into energy claws
It's like they weren't even trying

I'm fucking sick of this lightsaber shit in Pokemon lately. What's even the point of giving them logical moves and designs when everything is just an energy construct anyway? What's stopping Electrode from creating a big energy fist out of thin air?

As someone who likes Lucario in a non-furfag way, I'll try to explain what made me like it.
>like mythology and cultural shit, especially ancient Egypt(thanks YGO!) and Greece, it looks like Anubis
>used one in BW2 and turned out better than expected. Evolved super quick too, level 17 or so.
>anime shows those aura constructs, which look pretty rad
>Aura Spheres are literally Hadoukens.
>Mega is an actual beast and I enjoy using it a lot
>Riolu is cute
But yeah, GF shoves him down our throats a tad too much, so I can see why people start expressing disdain for Lucario.

Lucario was tailor made to be loved by kids. He was made to be cool - he can use telepathy, he can shoot the kamehameha and he's so strong that he never loses unless he's severely outnumbered or outright cheated. Then there are the furries. And since he's so popular with kids he's further pushed on.

I don't know if people like it as much as they did when it was first revealed, but I recall people going crazy for it.

I don't hate it, it's just as firmly in the "meh " category as you can get for me.

Zoroark is actually well designed, even his silly tazmanian wolf face makes sense when you consider he is a Kabuki themed fox.
>>
>>32821471
It has the "animated talking colored dog" appeal. Kids eat that shit up for breakfast.

If not that, then it has the "blue dog effect." Clifford, Blue from blues clues, Paw Patrol...Kid's love talking and/or off colored dogs.

I don't outright hate this thing; it's definitely an improvement design-wise. I just don't understand how people can tolerate its 90/70 offenses.

Not a fan of Lucario, never been one. But honestly, you have to be pretty slow mentally to not understand its appeal. It's "cool" for many reasons. Even I can appreciate the edge the dark colors and mask adds, and the sheer coolness of shooting Aura Sphere.

I don't get why people like them, they are supposed to be monster slaves fighting for you not some kinda of DnD party.

Zoroark could work better with white and red, inclusive the traditional kitsune mask use this colors
