>Emerald's Battle Frontier
A variety of strong trainers people like...(Anabel, Greta, Lucy)
>Pt/HGSS's Battle Frontier
A variety of strong trainers people like, one of them literally becomes an elite four member in BW. (Caitlin, Palmer, even fucking Thorton)
>BW
The Subway Bosses are really popular for some reason, despite the Battle Subway being less expansive than previous battle facilities... (Ingo and Emmet, for Singles, Doubles and Multis)
>XY
Follows a similar setup, now with Triples and Rotation Battles, but with four cute girls, ZERO fans.

What happened here?
>>
Their dresses look retarded. If they took that shit off, they'd be more popular not Nita she's fucked since her hair looks like shit
>>
Were their designs revealed in CoroCoro before release? I forgot, but if they weren't that probably had something to do with it. Plus, although I never personally played the Subway before postgame, the fact that it's accessible during the main story is probably a big plus for its popularity. Even if you didn't play it, you probably still went in there to get to Anville Town, so it's memorable.
>>
>>56746106
nobody gives a fuck about the frontier brains who aren't anabel, palmer, and lucy while masturbating. and if caitlin wasn't an e4 member in gen 5 she'd be forgotten too, especially because you don't even battle her.
>>
They're post-game characters who take a massive grind to see and interact with.
It's a no brainer why they're not popular.
One of the reasons why the train twins are so popular is because they actually appeared during the main story.

Literally only the Subway bosses and maybe Anabel are remotely popular. What fanfic universe are we living in?
>>
>>56746106
My theory for why XY characters tend to be unpopular is due to them using unanimated VN portraits. The animated sprites of previous gens and the fully animated 3D models of later gens were much better for characters than Gen 6's style.
>>
>>56746691
And they’re the only ones who appear outside of postgame. It’s almost as if Masuda was right and 99.9% of people don’t give a fuck about postgame battle facilities.
>>
>>56746634
That might be part of the problem, they're too same-y.

Also >>56746691 is right, battle facilty characters aren't that big. Fujos went crazy for Ingo and Emmet, and Anabel built her popularity between the anime and her SM cameo. And maybe Lucy because she's hot and also appeared in the anime (Dahlia didn't so nobody remembers her). Caitlin is more remembered as an E4 than as a frontier brain. And that's it, the rest are forgettable.
>>
odd how triple battle and rotation battle facilities never made a comeback

> A variety of strong trainers people like...(Anabel, Greta, Lucy)
None of those three are exceptionally popular. Anabel was literally only known by mentally challenged Ash shippers for a full decade before they made her somewhat relevant in SM. Lucy is hot and probably was the most popular for a while but even then she was and is still niche. Greta was immediately mogged by Maylene a year later, so outside of her 3 diehard fans she isn’t relevant. Brandon was the closest thing to a relevant frontier brain and it was because of Evil Ash.

> A variety of strong trainers people like,
Literally just Palmer, because he’s your rival’s dad. No, Caitlin isn’t a frontier brain; no one cared about her before she was in BW and no one still cares about the actual frontier brain (her butler- I bet you didn’t know his name was Darach). Gen 4 had a sexy Latina frontier brain too and literally no one talks or thinks about her.

> The Subway Bosses are really popular for some reason
Fujos. A pair of gentlemanly brothers in the same gen as N was like an oasis to them.

Battle facility characters are generally irrelevant unless they have a real connection to the main story or to Ash.
>>
>>56746106

>>56746106
>with four cute girls
One cute girl who runs one battle tower. Changing the hair color of one character design doesn't make it worth considering as a unique character design. Plus you'd have to do rotation battles to battle one of those recolors which most people forget existed entirely.

I also resent their battle tower due to it being the only battle facility in the entire generation and just copy pasted right into Hoenn as a slap in the face to anyone who wanted the Battle Frontier. It's a decent battle tower but fuck that.

X and Y had fully animated 3D models, but they were only given to Calem/Serena, Shauna, Tierno, that fourth kid, and Team Flare. The player even has a nice outro win animation that only plays when battling a modeled opponent. The games were just so rushed that they only bothered to model those characters. It's also really stupid because that fourth kid who is only battled twice is modeled despite being so goddamn forgettable that his I won't even bother with his name but the champion of the region Diantha is just a PNG.

well to compare them to the proceeding facility owners, the subway masters can be met before BW/2's postgame. They're tied to trains, fujos and yumejos love them because they're twins in fancy uniforms.

You never see the chatelaines until XY's postgame. The same can be said for most facility bosses, but most facility bosses aren't thta popular outside of a few exceptions. Part of the problem is that outside of Hoenn BF and the train twins they almost never get screentime in the anime. The only reason why we even saw Caitlyn was because she became an E4

Morgan is the oldest and has the most experience. She taught her sisters everything and how to monetize their sex appeal because she had to be the one that experimented the most. If you want to have fun with little effort she's your safest bet

Dana will abuse the shit out of you unless you abuse her back which she's into. She wants a real challenge even though she has absolutely no real experience. So she's safe because she'll enjoy you regardless, but it's more fun if you're the experienced one

Evelyn is for people who want to abuse their seniority status but most people who would want her likely will disappoint her. Despite being so easy to take advantage of if you don't assert dominance she's the most critically harsh of the three and will basically deny any opportunity to go again if you attempt a rematch. If you start to freak her out she'll sic her older sisters and the authority on you and cry about it

Nita probably has more experience than any of her older sisters except Morgan because she's completely apathetic to love and just wants to have fun. The most likely to give you a disease

It's just Pokémon Pikachu, that's why the Let's Go remake is called Let's Go Pikachu, it's a remake of Pokémon Pikachu specifically.
