> 23 years for THISthere are people who died waiting for Dunsparce to evolve
>>56979302And the people who cry about it were never real fans of Dunsparce, and missed the point of it entirely.
>>56979302Reminder that we had to contend with this because fans already used up all the "cool" Dunsparce evolution ideas for their fakemons.A fakemon a day keeps the good designs away!
>>56979312As much as people get bothered over GF banning designs for looking too similar to fans, I can't exactly think its unwarranted protocol. Pretty sure some random fanartist who made a fire/grass pepper fakemon some years before S&V got mad that scovillain was a thing, and it was spread around for a while when Scarlet and Violet first dropped and people were pissed over the bugs.
>>56979400Yup, people are ravenous for attention and an opportunity to badmouth Pokemon for "truly evil" practices. It's also why it took them so long to make a dolphin, because the fact they hadn't leapt on it as soon as Gen 3 hit meant there were already way too many fan designs out in the wild, so when they DID finally get around to Finizen and Palafin, guess what happened there?
>>56979312And every single one of those designs were boring, predictable ideas of making it some majestic or fearsome dragon. None of these people realized Dunsparce is a dumb, goofy Pokemon based on an equally dumb and goofy cryptid, and any evolution it got that didn't continue the joke would be out of character.
>>56979418And "Dunsparce but bigger" is the literal worst way to continue the joke. Even having it evolve into a literal turd would have been more creative.
>>56979427nuh uh
>>56979411And the thing is according to the teraleak, that flying type eevee was rejected because it looked too close to a fanmade version that was popular at that time. I can't help but wonder if all the "obvious" ideas for pokemon were skipped over for the sake of not stepping on toes and getting shit for it
>>56979312kek, I'm drawing same flying eevees right now. >>56979400I've mentioned this before but, they could just not look at fan designs, In the off chance that something looks similar enough for there to be a problem and assuming the fans would be bothered to take Game Freak to court, it would be some rando's word over the creators of the richest video franchise in the world. Even in your scovillian example, nothing came of it.
>>56979302I love this evo.
>>56979302The cherry on top is that it's absolutely worthless in battle compared to every other Gen 9 crossgen evo, and this is the same generation that added a metric fuckton of powercreep bullshit mons. It had to have been on purpose.
>>56979302It's a tsuchinoko, yeah?So I don't understand the point of it getting another segment.I'm not well versed in youkai. ...or is the tsuchinoko a cryptid?whatever. I love dunsparce, and this evolution is terrible.
>>56979400Notice how the only Eeveelution since 2006 was for a new type that the fans could never accurately predict AND make an evo for
>>56979302
it just get bigger its most pokemon evolution philosophy
>>56980414dookieshed predicted it
>>56979312>>56979302really wished they committed with the joke and gave him a 3rd stagemaybe make him drunk so he could have the dark poison type
>>56979302>LET'S DUPLICATE DUNSPARCE'S BODY PARTS AND CALL IT A NEW POKEMON!cross gen evos that came out after gen 4 were a mistake
>>56981365gen 4 was a mistake and so was gen 3
I never got the hype behind Dunsparce and wanting it to have an evolution
>>56981365Go away, yawnfag.
>>56981316The fact that Dunsparce would be an excellent drinking buddy will never not be funny to me
>>56979302like dunsparce because it's sillyits evo is sillylike its evo, simple as
>>56981365>LET'S MAKE POLIWHIRL BIGGER AND ANGRIER WITH THOSE ICONIC TORIYAMA EYES AND CALL IT A NEW SPECIES!They're just doing what made Pokemania happen, buddy.
>>56979959>it would be some rando's word over the creators of the richest video franchise in the world.That's not how court works in any country anon, much less Japan.
>>56981365>>LET'S DUPLICATE DUNSPARCE'S BODY PARTS AND CALL IT A NEW POKEMON!Aka the gen 4 special
>>56981999The Gen 4 special was making everything fat.
>>56979302and those people were retardsnot every mon should evolveI'm glad this confirms we're never getting another Dunsparce and everyone who drew evos on it can permanently shut the fuck up+ it's cute
>>56980434How far up your own ass do you have to be to not consider the real thing "Dunsparce but bigger".
>>56982543No, they're going to give it another evolution with another body segment or two in a decade because if there is one thing GF likes it is to run already bad jokes into the ground.
>>56979302Yes, it's perfect.Gen 9 may be almost exclusively shit designs, but this is not one of them.
>>56982557Not as far as you have to be to consider it good.
>>56982536You say that but mon like Weavile and Electivire multiplied body parts
>Game Freak can't create new good designs because people already used up potential good designsThe kind of excuses people come up with for Game Freak's incompetence and carelessness are hilarious.
>>56982684No, this is literally the case based on the Teraleak.There was going to be a Flying Type Eeveelution in Alola, but they scrapped it because it was a "high risk" due to how many fan designs were floating out there on the internet, especially in Japan.This is presumably what Project Eevee was originally leading up to, but in realizing that there's way too many fan designs for every single type, and even some unofficial types, they had to redirect HARD, which wound up being to their benefit, as now Eevee is now one of the biggest shillmons, and it doesn't even have to rely on its evolutions anymore to do so.
>>56980167>Fanfic meta >Took people almost 2 gens to start using Knock Off>InB4 "it got a power buff", people use it more often in gen 3/4 competitive now as well>Toxicroak is often written off a "shitmon" yet it has more tournament wins than Charizard and its 87 forms and buffs over the yearsJust because the masses of sheep ignore something, doesn't mean its bad... with over 1000 of these fuckers, not everything is gonna get usedSometimes, it's okay to think for yourself
>>56981810wrong, yawnfag worships everything the 3d era does and he hates gen 4
>>56981933>poliwhirl and poliwrathtwo pokemon introduced in the same and first gen where there are no previous gens to piggyback off of>dunsparce and dudunsparcegamefreak being lazy and piggybacking off on old gen therefor it's much worse than gen 1 doing it
>>56979308>hating in your favorite is the point of it
>>56982748I like this anon he's actually self aware and smart
>>56979302If you really liked Dunsparce at all, you liked it for being kind of doofy, lame, pathetic even. Dunsparce's appeal was its just a fuckin worm. Sure the dramatic and impressive fan evos were fun, but they were fun because of how well they juxtaposed against the real design. After years of buildup and fan agrandization, what we got is an anti-climax, but an intentional one. It's just as sad, weak, and doofy. It's perfect, and if you don't like this kind of design I dont think you were into Dunsparce in the first place.
>>56982851no, yawnie will very often pose as a Gen 4 fag to bait borts. Any newfags will fall for it, not realizing that the Golden Era doesn't fight, for the DS games remain the pinnacle time for the games.It's all downhill 3DS onward, with a slight uptick during SM and PLA. But if you graph it, it's a steady downward trend. Weird because the sales are inverse to the quality in the same time frame.Theres always the possibility that I'm wrong, and have been wrong all my life, and yawnfag is vindicated. But I doubt it.
>>56981966It is, actually. Often times writers lawyers will advise them to just, don't look at fanfiction, don't look at reviews, don't look at predictions, because if that's your policy then that's also your defence. If someone's predictions match your story, you can just say you never saw it. This is an established fact.That being said, why doesn't gamefreak just buy the designs? Just go to a creator and say "hey yeah we noticed your fan design is really similar to one we're working on. We'll give you $500 to shut up about it and let us do our thing." Like, that can't be that hard to do.
>>56979418The cope, kek
>>56983267The nips are too egocentrical to accept help, they would never.Meanwhile, valve did it and everyones loves them for it
>>56983267Likely because they'd still need to pay a yearly stipend or royalty to the creator for its use (they bought it, but Anon created it and is likely due such things due to not being part of GF staff, who work under contract and create designs for the company).This could also be a throwback to the Lugia/Shudo deal and a vehement dismissal of entertaining any kind of effort in the future, meaning it was likely always the case since they first took steps to protect their IP.
>>56983267>Often times writers lawyers will advise them to just, don't look at fanfiction, don't look at reviews, don't look at predictions, because if that's your policy then that's also your defence.That's not how that works, at the end of the day it's a game of "he said, she said" regardless of what you do, I mean you're acting like lying isn't a thing. Anyway, ultimately they're going to go by dates for an objective answer, most likely using the earliest version of a piece of media with the problematic character/material etc in it. >We'll give you $500 to shut up about it and let us do our thing." Because they think like the idiots here>MULTI BILLION COMPANY ONLY GIVING $500! WOOOOW WHAT SCUM GIVE ME MORE
>>56983310The arrest, kek.
>>56979302But they got exactly what they wanted, a comically bland evolution to a comically bland pokemon with a comically painful-to-acquire alternative yet equally bland evolution. It's fucking kino
>>56983578>That's not how that worksThat's literally how that works. Writers are eon record receiving this advice.
>>56979308>>56979418>>56980127>>56981810>>56981847>>56982543>>56982580>>56983227>>56983847I'm 100% people who defend Dudunsparce and insist "it's SUPPOSED to look like garbage, that's the joke!" are people who have never cared about Dunsparce before. I almost would guess you're faggots who think the Gen 8 fossils are good designs.
>>56979302Please look up on what Dunsparce is based on.
>>56984188>mass replying>seething about the best fossils since hoennYep, dudunsparce haters confirmed for broccoli haired attention whore zoom zoom faggots.
>>56984188No one is saying it's supposed to look like garbage, dumbass.
>>56984255Alright, thank you for confirming my suspicions. I'm glad that we can write off Dudunsparce defenders as slop enjoyers.>>56984263Dudunsparce looks like garbage, and everyone is saying it's supposed to look like that, ergo...
>>56984188Imagine hating the based gen 8 fossils. Thank god I wasn't born with fucking garbage taste.
>>56984188Love Dunsparce, used it in Colo, despise the gen 8 fossils
i'm pretty sure none of you """people""" actually give a damn about dudunsparce and just want something to complain about just like every 4chin
Wait, are we actually at the point where people are unironically defending the Gen 8 dex?
>>56984295Sadly yeah it just shows how low /vp/iss truly is
>>56984268No dumbass, everyone is saying that it's style, theme, and energy matches its original. So if you don't like those things, you weren't a dunsparce fan anyways, so no one cares what you say.
>>56984295No, gen 8 is overall pretty ass, but the fossils are good
>>56984334>style>themeLiterally nothing about Dunsparce screams "adding extra segments" or "add a drill hat on its tail". It looks retarded on what's supposed to be a fat bee-snake.>energyThis is one of the gayest buzzwords you could've pulled out, might as well say "vibe".
>>56984356You can pretend to not read and pretend to not get it, but it doesn't make you look like some genius.
>"Well? Say the line nuPokemon fan!">"It's supposed to look bad."
Ever notice how there's always just one dedicated autist a thread these days?
>>56984367>>56984372Cope.
>>56984356Everything you post makes you look more and more like a gigantic faggot
>>56984356>fat bee-snakeIt's a tsuchinoko.
>>56984188I've been pretty ambivalent towards the critter. But I can't see it suddenly becoming an epic dragon; it's a fat, cowardly little thing that lives deep in the ground. And unlike your Magikarp or Wimpod that become fearsome beasts upon evolution, it isn't audaciously terrible in battle, just mediocre/below average. It doesn't seem to be special for anything other than rarity.
>>56984486>But I can't see it suddenly becoming an epic dragonWhy is the alternative to game freak ctrl+c and ctrl+ving circles in blender an epic dragon?
>>56984683Because it was either that or it literally gets bigger.
>>56979308>>56980434>>56982543>>56984289>>56984334>no true scotsman
>>56984346>>56984279They're trash, and no amount of "but da concept" damage control will work.
>>56984188Defending GF is all that matters to them.
>>56984683There was secret third option and its called not giving it an evo
>>56982870No one understands you, ESLkun.
>>56981381It's a joke Pokemon. It's ridiculously hard to find, yet when you show it off to your friends it's completely useless in battle. It's like if Feebas didn't evolve.It's funny and unique. It's like how Dan was added to Street Fighter as a joke character who sucked, but people liked him so much they kept using him and made him more viable in future games.
>>56984901Liking golem won't save you, UOL-sama.
>>56983252>no, yawnie will very often pose as a Gen 4 fag to bait bortsI never mentioned gen 5 in my post, all I did was criticize cross gen evos from the 3D era. gen 5 wasn't mentioned because it has no cross gen evos. therefor, saying "cross gen evos after gen 4" is technically the same thing as saying "cross gen evos starting with the 3D era". putting that aside, gen 5 was still the last gen that overall had good designs
>>56984188>who think the Gen 8 fossils are good designsThey're better than the generic t-rex with a beard.
>>56984486I waited...why would you do this.
>>56984188>who think the Gen 8 fossils are good designsthey are
>>56981365>After gen 4
>>56979312people had been making arcanine fanart revolving around it looking more like the actual guardian dog statue and its hisuian form was designed based on that very same concept, which proves GF design philosophy and fanart design can still overlap.
>>56984188it's not supposed to "look like garbage" (unless you think the original Dunsparce looks like garbage)
>>56983541Except regardless of which came first, there’s no reason for a court to assume that a multimillion dollar company would need to steal ideas from a some nobody even if designs happens to be similar since some ideas just inherently more likely to show up, even more so since fakemon makers actively try to use fakemon concepts that would fit with game freak would make. The ideas would have to be near copies for Game Freak to even have a slight chance or losing. > >MULTI BILLION COMPANY ONLY GIVING $500! WOOOOW WHAT SCUM GIVE ME MOREConsidering how even the least shilled pokemon generates several thousands of dollars, $500 does seem like a pittance at best.
>>56985698This faggot is shitting on Big John.
>>56984872They're awesome regardless of the concept.>>56985698Don't you dare shit on Tyrantrum.
>>56980434the rare pleeb W
>>56979302I like it
>>56979427And I think its great. Its still looks like evo as its adds on design. Especialy when you see how bigger is this guy than dunsparce. Its not like Pawmot line that barrely changes.
>>56984872The only problem is that they should have made rest of the fossils for mix and matching in dlc.
>>56985698there's no way you have such shit taste naturally
>>56982737And thanks to that epic Eevee story they now have a free pass for shitting out awful design after awful design because everytime they do useful idiots will defend them and pretend they had no choice since the "good" designs were already claimed by fakemon artists. Which is utterly pathetic.
Imagine caring about Keksparce.
>>56984289pokefags truely have no standards
>>56979302Now wait 46 more for this.
>>56979302It's not just about evolving your Dunsparce. It's about the thrill of possibly evolving it into the top percent of Dudunsparce (a Dududunsparce) instead.>then it becomes a matter flinching your enemies 45% of the time
I hope we get Mega Dudunsparce that's just Dudunsparce with one more segment (A Two Segment becomes Three and a Three Segment becomes Four) to really hammer the point home.
I don't get it. What's the epic meme with Dudunsparce? Everyone says that it's an epic meme and it being a meme makes it good, but what's the meme?
