Apparently we have player stats for the last 2 years of SV>gayduck confirmed least used starter
>>56933189>Larry, grusha and iono YOU JUST KNOW
>>56933189Gholdengo being most synced is not shocking, fun to surf around
>>56933189I'm assuming that the mon that gets its actual image is the most popular of the 3 in the caught section
>>56933189Modern Pokemon names are so awkward to pronounce. They don't flow well or roll off the tongue as smoothly as older gen names. Is it done on purpose to make them more trademarkable?
>>56933198Literally all 5 are waifus/husbandos, even brassius.
>>56933189no surprised desu>>56933198which one is at the top of the list?
>>56933272Brassius is a husbando? I've never seen anyone care about him.
>>56933189https://www.reddit.com/r/PokemonScarletViolet/comments/1aqig3y/what_pok%C3%A9mon_would_you_consider_your_ace/^redditoids love lucario, ralts, dragonite, eevees
>>56933281Women like him.
>no starly or wattrel on top catches listThe people have rejected my birdbros...
>>56933315Wattrel is surprisingly easy to skip for an early route bird, most people go straight to the academy at the start and don't check out the beach areas.
>>56933363Not only that it appears at certain times, certain times you're locked out of in the beginning.
>>56933189The Cinderace raid was the most fun raid after that it was all downhill from there
who's teaching their pokemon takedown?
>>56933426Kids.
>>56933189>floette #1 caught fairyFLORGAYSFAGS BTFO
>>56933485Sylveonfags are already in shambles and ZA isn't even out yet.
>>56933189>Take Down>Mud-SlapWhy?
>>56933189D-ducksisters…the cat and crocs are still btfoing us…
>>56933189>ugly Penny is nowhere.Yes, all is good in the world.
>>56933278Iono, followed by bug lady and then mr.trap.
>>56933499>Mud-SlapI can see it being useful in online raids. One person spamming it to lower the raidmon's accuracy helps out the whole team.
>>56933499A mission in Blueberry academy forces you to make a Take Down TM
>>56933523And Take-Down? Just people accidentally picking it because it's TM001?
>>56933189>Katybased. Glad to see melony 2.0 Is getting the love she deserve
>>56933509how to cuck starters>grassDon't give it easy or controversial competition>fireMake it unpleasant as possible for furfags, and don't add ghost type>waterAdd an easy way to get a Gyarados
>>56933540It's probably actual children.
>>56933499Stats will naturally tilt towards early game, as everyone goes through the same things pretty much. So people see they can make it at the start after Nemona gives them items and do it. Also, there's no real reason to make most other TMs as you will always get them naturally through collection on the over world, so you only need extras. Of course BBQs also helped as stated, probably a lot honestly
>>56933549Except she barely gets fanart and only has ONE doujin which also features a futa Penny because her design hits all the tastes of the artist FOR SHOTAS.
>>56933198Know what? seriously, also people like to ship iono and grusha.
>>56933597>Except she barely gets fanartNah, you’re just not looking hard enough.
>>56933189TOTAL SANDWICH DOMINATION
>>56933189>take down is the most crafted TMWhy?
>>56933628shiny hunting Is one hell of a drug
>>56933297I thought it was just the fujos who ship him with the art guy. I've never heard anyone care about him outside of that
>>56933499Mud Slap is a cheap easy TM to make when you need it for the BP quest
>>56933426It's a 90 base power move at the very start of the game. Don't pretend you didn't teach your mons Mega Kick right after you left Mt. Moon.
>>56933426>Early access all-purpose Normal-type move to attackRemember, most kids as far back as genwunners would only use attacking moves, let alone ones of the same type. No surprise the few ones to use the TM Machine would use such a universally-applicable 90BP attack, same as something as good and cheap (for parts) as Protect given even earlier.If anything, the two surprises are Mud Slap (which is also earlier I guess, probably kids/normalfags having trouble with Iono having 4 good Pokémon that early (for a modern game), but especially Drain Punch. That one especially makes me happy. Guessing though that's plenty of raiders trying to make an all-in-one Iron Hands for anything without the Mightiest Mark. Still brings me joy.
>>56933297>womenretard
>>56933189>mon which has been uu for most of its memorable life is least usedno shit
>>56933628SANDWICHGAME
>>56933804Mud-slap is a god tier support move in raids. Lowering the boss's accuracy helps the whole team.
>>56933628
When was the last time that a water starter flopped this hard?
>>56933208Wooper is indisputably more popular than Psyduck and we all know why Psyduck got the spotlight or "made" the list at all.
>>56933882>Least PopularBlastoiseEmpoleonotherwise never
>>56933882gen 5. I wouldnt be shocked if thé duck get a regional replacement in the next legends game.
>>56933904Samurott is the most popular or second most popular of its trio.
>>56933903>cite two of the most popular water startersare you high or somthing?
>>56933898Anon Wooper's more popular but you can only catch the Water type one in Kitakami-ones caught during the main story wouldn't count, so it's indeed likely that Psyduck beat it. The fact that it's still there despite that the above is a testament to it's popularity more than anything, though
>>56933669>>56933575
>>56933915being the most popular memeber of a trio that flopped isnt an achievement anon.
>>56933916their respective companions are more popular is the point
>>56933865I used it once in a 7* raid, so I'll take your word for it. Similarly cheap parts too, so I guess it has the same appeal.
>>56933189>Top sandwich ingredients>No herba mystica Yeah okay.
>>56933961Shiny hunting autists are a minority, sandwiches have more general uses
>>56933961>rare late game resource that you need to grind post-gameAre you stupid
>>56933961anon you realise that the shiny sandwiches also use the other ingredients ontop of the herbs, often multiple times
>>56933189The most made tms don't make sense for a game where competitive is the only thing you do after you finish the storyEveryone cheats, No one is legit, If you don't do your part i'll cheat you myself, Welcome to the Fanbase! POKEMONS FAN BASE!
>>56934395Are you retarded? It has nothing to do with cheating.
>>56933189>Take Down>Mud-SlapFor what purpose?
>>56933189>CrocalorBased
>>56934003name 4
>>56933189>LucarioI always enjoying laughing at the retards who said he was just a flavor of the month.
>>56934467There's a repeatable quest in the DLC where you get currency for crafting a TM. Take Down is the first in the list and Mud-Slap is very high up and has requires a very low amount of materials.
>>56934467Extremely easy to make for Blueberry Academy's BBQs.
>gyaradosYou'd think people would be sick of using it but i guess not, especially when its primary downside doesn't exist anymore.
>>56934604Kids play this game, they just want to bruteforce/roflstomp the game with a cool Pokémon to feel powerful.
>>56933315Honestly it's not a great metric as it is, it's all just the first/lowest level Pokemon you can catch of each type
>starter midevos on "most added to team" listThese really shouldn't count since you have to go through them to get the final evo for your starter.
>>56934908While true it's also a very funny metric to show just how many people 1. didn't make it to the final evolutions of the starters and 2. how little people actually picked the duck
>>56934908It goes to show most players literally don't even bother catching Pokemon unless it's an immediate powerhouse they're familiar with or a shillmon, even more telling is how few bought (or at least completed) the first DLC considering the absence of Ogerpon from that list.
>>56934604It's an early catch plus the useless preevo -> godmode evo is still endearing to people. The problem with pokemon is, some pokemon are just as shit as magikarp (Sunkern) but have way less payoff. So they may as well just go with the pokemon that they've heard is strong. The end result is: now instead of a weak pokemon that grows strong, you just get a strong pokemon for free. It's a little sad but that's the current state of pokemon.
>>56934920nta but a ton of people have a massive stigma against using Legendaries. They don't bother checking if Ogerpon's "as strong" as the usual box legend, they just catch it and shelve it because they feel it's cheap. Neither Koraidon or Miraidon are on that list despite being literally free either.
>>56934915Kek true, I left my grass cat as the cool yo-yo mid evo
>>56934948Koraidon and Miraidon require you to outright beat the game to obtain, and even then we don't know if the one we use as a mount properly counts as "adding to a team" since the only time you're required to use it is a scripted battle, and most people would rather use the other Raidon so they don't have to fuck with the menus to toggle whether or not Sandwich Lizard is being used as a mount.
>>56933904Samurott is literally one of the most popular starters you deluded nigger.
>>56933189>synchronized PokemonWhat?>guest trainersWhat?
>>56935045Someone didn't play the DLC lol
>>56934921>now instead of a weak pokemon that grows strong, you just get a strong pokemon for freeThat really is the problem, you don't have to put in any effort to get this mon that shits damage out and weakens enemies just by being sent out.
>>56935066Indeed. I really didn't feel like revisiting Violet.
>>56935081You can invite Gym leaders, professors, rivals, elite 4, champions, etc into your personal lobby in Blueberry and have them interact with each other and you can interact and trade pokemon with themSynchro is a device that lets you PLAY as the Pokemon
>>56935111Worth mentioning that Synchro only works in Blueberry Academy and it's a very rudimentary beta test (literally called as such in-universe) for what's obviously going to be expanded upon significantly in Gen 10.It's novel for a few minutes, but it doesn't really serve too much purpose.
>>56935111>PLAY as the PokemonHuh. Well anyway, thanks for the info.
>>56935111>>56935123Synchro is only useful for clearing outbreaks for shiny hunting. That's why Gholdengo is used so much, it's very fast AND can move on water at the same speed. Not a lot of Pokémon can do both.
>>56933509>Lucario>Garchomp SinnohCHADS own Paldea
>>56935123Dunno I find it interesting to observe animations you often dont get to see, such as Lugia's swimming animation being that of SS's title screen or Deoxys speed funny running, its great
>>56935345Walking Wake being able to walk on water like Suicune was also something I only found out through synchro. Kino shit.
>>56935340>SinnohCHADS own Paldeabased
>>56933189So Garchomp is the most popular pseudo?
>>56935403Garchomp is the pseudolegendary who appeals to the most people, easily.
>>56933189>legendaries, starters, and otherwise popular Pokemon for most used in synchro machine>then fucking VaroomWhat am I missing here?
>>56936546It's very fast I think
>>56936546Varoom is one of if not THE fastest overworld Pokemon in the game, which makes it extremely good for the same reasons Gholdengo is in the list.
>>56936583>>56936586I guess. I know Gholdengo is very fast and can also be in land or water, but does that mean Revavroom is slower in comparison?
>>56933426I haven’t played the game, but people were saying it’s good for “BBQs”. I don’t know that means ingame.
>>56937017In the second DLC's main area, there's a mechanic where you get a constant feed of sidequests that you complete in order to obtain Blueberry Points, the main currency to buy items and perform services there.One of these sidequests is crafting a TM, which is something you can do in SV in general. Moves like Take Down and Mud-Slap are very popular picks because they're some of the first on the list, and also cost very few resources to make.
>>56936546It's very fast, I prefer it's Evolution and donphan though
>>56933189>Rika not on the listWhere did the fujos go?
>a whopping TWO (2) (dos) (II) Unova Pokemon mentioned anywhereSisters... we lost...
>>56938388did you seriously painstakingly search through every single pokemon name, then take a tally of which ones were gen 5 just so you could make that non-comment? get a life.
>>56933189>no hamburgerThat's about the ONLY fucking thing we cook with around here.
>>56938922
>>56934510Based
>>56933189
>>56938999>literally can pick anything>still pick gyarados, lucario, garchompwtf the fuck is wrong with people
>>56939005there's a reason they're most added to a team and not most caught. its people's old mons from home. how many people still use breloom or gallade as their catcher?
>>56938922>>56938932God bless America
>>56939005Ah yes, I will add Flamigo, Palafin and Baxcalibur to my team. Boy I love these designs, they're not hideous at all!
>>56939005>wtf the fuck is wrong with peopleAutists like patterns and hate change
>>56939005Go look at this link lol >>56933291 its all lucarios starters pseudos eevees gardevoirs gallades
>>56939005Paldean Pokemon are hideous.
>>56933189floragato dabbing on meowscarada's grave
>>56939016I use Vigoroth as my catcher.
>>56933796Difference between Mega Kick and Take Down is there's no self-damage penalty in MK. In this case though, Take Down is TM001 and is cheap as fuck to boot. meaning people are likely fulfilling the "make a tm" BBQ challenge by making Take Down. regardless of whether they use it or not (I just change the challenge, fuck having to stop what I'm doing to go to the central plaza).
>>56939005People like Pokemon not Unovamon/Paldeamon
>>56939347It's almost as if the designs kids loved on their initial addition to the series continue to remain popular with that demographic of players as the years progress.When you eventually accept kids as the main demographic, more of the stat sheets like this will make more sense to you, instead of you vainly projecting your own tastes and opinions to normalfag cunts that heavily outweigh them.
>>56939398>Unova and Paldea failed to capture the main audienceYikes...
>Normal popularity thread >Turns into a genwar thread 4chins on /vp/ are truly schizophrenic
>>56939427>>56939347^xhe is that arab iphonefaggot that spams 'plass'
>>56939441I thought he was a mexispic, is he really an ahab motherfucker? 'Cause that does explain a lot.
SV is slop
Garchomp is the worst design in the series, but game freak really wants people to love dogshitAnd apparently, a lot of people are fine with loving dogshitAll the other pseudos are cool, thoughAnd Gible is at least kinda cute
she won
>>56939722Tell us some of your favourites, anon.
>>56939777Tyranitar, Reuniclus, Oddish, Mantine, Poliwhirl, Scizor, Frosmoth, Porygon2, Runerigus, Dusclops, Ledianjust to name a fewGarchomp is one of like 8 Pokémon designs I think are actually legitimately bad

>>56939880>LedianWhat the fuck?>>56939929Those are all good mons
>>56939880Damn, I wanted to shit on your taste but they're all pretty solid. Garchomp is a weird choice to get mad about this, considering the number of utterly atrocious designs in the series. Are you sure it's not just the oversaturation making you sick of it?
>>56940128No, I've disliked it since 2007 or whenever
>>56938428>>56939398>>56939435>>56939441>>56939498>>56939960How's that ban taste, schizo?
>>56940189What?
>>56940209Your schizo spam all over the catalog
>>56939960Ledian is a good design. Don’t let the fact that it’s a total shitmon cloud your judgment of what it does do well.
