Why isn't Robo-Gardevoir not as popular as it's flesh counterpart?
>>
Because Gardevoir has been around for far longer than Iron Vailant.
>>
>>58923684
Like this guy said >>58923690 as well as it's a late game pokemon, as well as it didn't appeared in the anime yet and it came out on SV, where many people drop due to the glitches so they never saw it.

trannyvoir!

trannys have bad optics for being looney school shooters.

>>58923798
Chuds and priests only denounce trannies because they (trannies) hog all the children and high scores to themselves while the chuds have to find a gun store that isn't out of stock while priests are running out of undefiled children to diddle.

In fairness, you can't give modern pokemon tits and ass. Not even Gardevoir has those and solely relies on fanart to fill in the gaps.

>>
>>58925430
>pokemon fans aren't robophiles

I don't think most Pokemon fans like metallic designs in general

Notice how the most popular ones barely have any metal on their main bodies or don't look like the average steel type: Lucario, Tinkaton, Jirachi, Zacian

The only exceptions are Metagross, Mawile, Aegislash, Scizor, Corviknight, and maybe Dialga and Solgaleo. Even then, Metagross probably is only liked due to being the ace of champion. If it wasn't,and was a random 3-stage line you could find in Hoenn, people would probably just trash on the whole line for being more akin to object mons.
Aegislash is mainly popular due to being a ghost type (probably the most popular type among normies).

I don't think Dialga is really that beloved since most people seem to vastly prefer Palkia and Giratina.

Corviknight is a laughing stock now and TPC doesn't want it to be seen as cool or tough anymore in favor of something marketable like Tinkaton.

Gamefreak and the fandom as a whole seem to forget that Mawile is part steel-type and steel specialists are banned from ever using her outside of generic npcs and Jasmine in the PWT before she got the fairy type added, while almost every fairy specialist uses her.

Steel types as a whole are seen as a joke or complete bitch to Tinkaton among the community.

Most fans don't fan art of steel types outside of a select few.

It really sucks since it's my favorite type, but most of their designs aren't marketable to children, women, and casuals who just like cute animals or cool dragons, dogs, and cats.

I guess Steel types are an adquired taste. I'm trying to remember if I ever used Steel Pokémon, and sadly I didn't so it much.
I feel the only Steel Pokémon I actually used was Bronzong. And I used it mainly because I found funny using a Steel Pokémon with Levitate and Earthquake.

Iron Valiant is not as popular as Gardevoir primarily due to its nature as a future Paradox Pokémon, which often features a more sterile, robotic design compared to the well established and more natural look of Gardevoir.

Gardevoir has been popular since Generation 3 and has years of emotional connections with players who often go out of their way to catch and evolve it on their in game teams. Iron Valiant on the other hand was introduced much later in Generation 9 and is only normally obtainable in Violet's late game.

Other reasons why your average pokemon fan doesn't care about Iron Valiant may include the fact that they just see it as a lame attempt at piggybacking off of Gardevoir's popularity, that Meowscarada already filled the waifu niche, etc.

(personally I think that they should have made a past paradox version instead. A strong amazon cavewoman gardevoir would have had a broader appeal and would give people fanfiction material to work with)
>>
>>58929354
>personally I think that they should have made a past paradox version instead. A strong amazon cavewoman gardevoir would have had a broader appeal
I disagree. Most gooners don't like unkempt muscle women and on top of that, she'll have to compete with Tinkaton as the unga bunga girl. It's just the unfortunate circumstance that Iron Valiant is a legendary tier mon meant for endgame and is hard to imagine as a feasible obtainable partner.
>>
>>58929511
Well one could argue that Iron Valiant likewise is already competing with pokemon like Ceruledge in the edgy knight / swordman category.

Besides Ogerpon is another popular unga bunga girl, so fan don't seem to mind GF repeating ideas.
>>
>>58923684
No one wants to goon with someone who is half Gallade

Thats gay trans pedo shit

It's a gattai of a male Gardevoir and a Gallade.
>>
>>58929559
>Besides Ogerpon is another popular unga bunga girl
Because she's story important and is pretty much your companion throughout it with a tragic backstory. A past paradox Gardevoir would never be able to compete with that.
>>
And I'm not saying that she has to, nor do I expect that any late game paradox pokemon would be able to compete. But when it comes down to just comparing a past paradox Gardevoir to Iron Valiant, I feel that Iron Valiant misses the mark. Iron Valiant being a mix of both Gardevoir and Gallade, makes it lose out on what make Gardevoir itself appealing to fans.

Pretty much.
I know I'm an outlier for really liking overtly mechanical/artificial pokemon, at least. I think people broadly give Metagross a pass, but also I often feel like it isn't really regarded as truly "mechanical", and more like a weird metal animal, like Aggron or Steelix.
Steel and Ghost have the best vibes.
I remember, ages ago I played some Pokemon Tabletop, most of my pokemon were in some way made by my character. Spawned an Alolan Grimer through chemistry, programmed my own Porgyon, manufactured my own Magnemite and Beldum, and made the body for a type-shifted Steel/Ghost Banette, acting as a sort of robot-poultrigeist, and not a single other person at that table really got it.

Probably the outward indications of it being both genders, which instantly makes it a niche fetish thing.
>>
>>
>>58935819
>Both genders
Not really? It's just Garde with Gallade's head spike and hip circle. The skirt is definitely more Garde/Mega Garde and the blades from Mega Gallade's Duel Disk aren't exactly an exclusively masculine trait. Not that Gallade is the most masculine mon to begin with.

The polarizing parts are
A) Robot
B) Hollow Chest Spike
C) Mysterious but also dangerous
Valiant is an intimidating mon due to all of these factors. The weapon elevates it. Mons like Farfetch'd and Gallade have an honor and duty angle to make them more likable. Bisharp and Ceruledge look mean and evil so they appeal to edgy crowds. Valiant being robotic and inorganic makes it harder to read its intentions but still intimidating, so its more offputting to the masses. Garde's rep is doing a lot of carrying for Valiant and Valiant would probably put off certain Garde fans too for being different.
