What happened?
>>32871130
Digimon was stronger back then.
>>32871130
But anon, blaziken's design is hot fire. Actually the gen 3 starters look great except for sceptile which I still regret choosing.
>>32871142
Nah, I loved Torchic, but Blaziken was way too huge a leap for me and looked like a weird guy in a birdsuit, so I basically hated it at first sight. Imagine being a normie Tepig/Litten fan and seeing Emboar/Incineroar. That's basically what Blaziken was like for me. I actually switched to Treecko as my fave after this. I don't like Sceptile that much, but I find it more tolerable at least.
>>32871207
Same for me with Blaziken.
I don't really care for any of the Hoenn starters' final stages.
>>32871207
I can see your point. Doesn't help theres a sm4sh mod which replaces a falcon skin with a blaziken. I hate all the gen 7 starters (first time I ever boxed my starter, rowlett's mid evo) and kinda preferred the "it just gets bigger" idea. Venusaur is way more believable evo to bulbasuar while incineroar still looks like a fakemon to me.
>>32871248
Yeah im not the biggest fan of incineroar either. He doesnt even look like a fakemon too me. His design is just so cringey its insane to me how that got the greenlight. Like charizard, typhlosion blaziken infernape emboar delphox(the harshest decline) then the disgrace that is emboar ( lets make a machoke in a furry suit)
>>32871382
Not embloat i meant incineroar well obviously but still...i meant incineroar (sorry emboar :( )
>>32871382
>He
Mega slowbro looks off to me it goes slowpoke 7/10 slowbro9/10(slowking10/10) then M-slowbro shelled up/10...what happened did they just wanna leave early that day. The design doesnt even make sense
>>32871396
I know i know but thats how i see him, how ive always seen him, and will continue to see him. No amount of muh gender identity shitposting will change that. Not trying to be rude but i have just as much a right to call him a him as someone else does to complain about it
>>32871408
It's a joke. In it's mega evolved form the shellder has almost devoured him.
>>32871408
It's a fun concept though, it's just Slowpoke -> Slowpoke with Shellder biting tail -> Slowpoke taken over by huge Shellder.
I agree that it looks goofy, should've been a knight-like Slowpoke wearing Shellder armor.
>>32871468
yeah i wish they woulve left him alone actually slowking is one of my original faves him being stupid and becoming smart/awakened by kings rock is cool
>>32871066
Blastoise too
