Do Pokemon Youtubers not understand what Hot takes are?Yesterday I saw one guy with like 4 "hot" takes... half of them were the coldest shit in existence (Charizard is Overrated and Baby Pokemon didn't need to exist) and one was about the Cyndaquil line being overrated... which would have been hot but it includes the whole "3d Typhlosion looking bad" thing which is pretty cold There was also a different guy who included a take that wasn't even related to pokemon nor was it a hot take at all (People shouldn't heavily obsess over characters to the point they become toxic about it, or some shit like that I don't remember. Same person is chronically online on Twitter so it might explain things)> Can I get some actual Hot takes here?
Color = type is retarded
>>58198260hot take:pedophilia is wrong
>>581982606v6 singles should be brought back as the standard for VGC.I'm tired of doubles especially 4v4.
>Extremely popolar thing bad actually!Cold take>Extremely popular thing good actually!>Cold takeNothing is a hot take anymore. My take is Masuda was a better director than Tajiri, and even that is a cold take
>>58198283Why do you care when you never play competitive Pokemon to begin with?
>>58198260My hot take is the soccer moms and pastors who tried to get Pokémon canceled in the 90’s were right
>>58198283I actually agree with this, although I could just be biased since I'm way more of a singles player
>>58198302Post ball rank or everything you just stated is invalidated.
>>58198260This is just a normalfag thing. The term sees some use by people who understand it, then normalfags who don't know what it means see it being used and want in. They proceed to misuse it, but do so among their normalfag circles who also don't understand so the term loses its original meaning for the majority as it spreads.It's similar to the sheer number of "PoV" memes that aren't in someone's point of view.
>>58198302>>58198312>if you're not the best you can't have an opinionHow do you guys talk about anything yourselves if you think like this?
"Hot take" has just been faggotspeak for "opinion" for many years now.
>>58198260>Can I get some actual Hot takes here?HMs were good actually.
>>58198329Why are you quoting me? I asked the retard to post his ball rank
>>58198329>>if you're not the best you can't have an opinionNo, if you literally don't play PvP you can't have an opinion.
>>58198260>and one was about the Cyndaquil line being overrated... To be fair, this wasn't a hot take in gen 2. They would not shut the fuck up about how it could learn t-punch.
>>58198353Ball rankNowSurely you wouldn't accuse others of not playing while that actually being true of yourself, right?
>>58198359Wooper can learn punching moves and Slowbro learns flamethrower, everything's possible
>>58198260> Can I get some actual Hot takes here?Sinnoh and more specifically Platinum has some of the worst region design in the series. Not only is there way too much backtracking between badges 6 and 8 making having a fly mon a must, but some dungeons require you to have up to 5 HMs in your party which I can’t think of any other game that comes close to that.
>>58198406"Sinnoh relied too hard on HMs" is a pretty lukewarm take.
>>58198349Illiterate.>>58198353Faggot.
>>58198406Sinnoh in general I think is overrated
>>58198420Why are you attacking me while I'm demanding evidence that Anon plays the game while he's making baseless accusations?
>>58198475Because you're arguing in the exact same retarded way he is.
>>58198260You sound like a butt-blasted snowflake attention-entitled bitch, therefore i will disregard any opinion of yours.
>>58198260Maybe these are hot takes>Cyndaquil is a far better design than its evos>Gen 6 legendary trio are just rehashes of Gen 3’s
Shinies shouldn't be visible on the overworld.
>>58198260my hot take: IV's and EV's need to be removed from Pokemon
>>58198542So Legends Arceus?
>>58198406Mt. Coronet is so fucking boring and you have to go through it so many times, worst mountain in the series.
>>58198260People just say "hot take" before their opinion so they don't have to fear any repercussions or can deflect any counter arguments in case anyone opposes them. It's a coward strategy.They might also say it as bait to farm engagement because it makes people like you comment on their video going "ermmm that's no a hot take..." and any form of engagement makes their videos more likely to be picked up by the algorithm.
>>58198524I don't see much similarities, Gen 3 trio is Sea, Land and Sky. Gen 6 trio is Life, Death and Zygarde (seriously what is Zygarde even meant to represent)I guess both Kyogre/Groudon and Xerneas/Yveltal both have abilities that boost their moves in some way while the third member gets something different but that's about it
>>58198579the first guy I mentioned was a short so that could make a lot sense, but wouldn't actual Hot takes cause more engagement cus more people disagreeing with it?
Objectmons are fine and fill out niches of the dex well, the gen 5 and 6 objects are good.Gen 3 and 4 have the worst designs overall.
>>58198606Hottest take in the thread.
>>58198598Probably that they are Red/Blue/Green and the third member serves as a mediator between the other two if they get out of control, as illustrated by their abilities.It's a stretch but I can see why he would draw the parallel.
>>58198260here’s an unpopular opinion:pokéathlon sucks
>>58198481Holding someone to their own standards is a good thing.
>>58198606I agree with Gen 3, mechanically some are just slow mixed attackers (which doesn't work well) and design wise some are way too similar to each other (which I get that's the point cus doubles were introduced here but it just makes them feel like filler)Ex. Plusle/Minun, Solrock/Lunatone, Volbeat/IllumiseNot sure how to feel about gen 4 tho
>>58198680not an unpopular opinion, everyone suddenly decided everything about hgss blows in recent yearsthey're wrong and you're also wrong btw
>>58198680You're right, HGSS suck ass for many reasons. also fuck Voltorb Shit and the Safari Zone; I swear most of the additions added in this game are poorly designed time wasting dogshit to pad it out because Johto is small and boring as fuck
>>58198260I saw one hot take from Jayden about Charizard being overrated and everyone in the comments acting as if it was the bravest take ever.It was a grim reminder that I wasn't a normie lmao
My hottest take is that SM and USUM are the ONLY good games from the 3D era from the mainline (so I don't count Arceus here)
>>58198612Yeah, this is the main reason.>red and blue box legends whose powers can be used for great destruction>both have field abilities that buff their type>green third legendary who’s meant to counter them while simultaneously being a being of balanceThey hit the same beats in a way that’s a bit too closely related.
>>58198260Dexit is good. Gen 9 is one of the best gens. Quaquaval is cool. Nothing can change my mind.
>>58198804I love my gay dancing duck
>>58198332Adding on to this: HMs should have never been removed.
>>58198275That's actually considered a hot take on /vp/
>>58198880He's the best.
>>58198804unmatched dogshit taste, I'll give you that.
hitmonlee is peak pokemon design. literally an example of what a pokemon should be
>>58198260Gen 7 has the best lineup of new Pokemon
>>58198260Humanoid pokemon have the best designs.
>>58198260Gen 2 is the best gen
>>58198260They do, the "Hot take" part is just for attention
>>58198275jump off a building
>>58198260and how many people engaged in those videos only to mention those were not hot takes?
>>581982836v6 doubles is the ultimate format
>>58201239I promise I will do it after every pedophile has done it too
>>58198283>more time for advertisingBased
>>58199832Sorry but most feel like digimon rejects to me
