>Is the most popular mega by such a long shot it's not even funnyApologize
no, it looks stupid. most of the megas do
not exactly a lot of competition in the runningthis does not bode well for you if you dislike goofymons
>>58446255>the fate of my favourite Pokémon line will be randomly assigned to a legend like Sugimori or a shitposting zoomermeme intern one daygrim
>>58446255nah it’s still lazy as fuck. I don’t care if Japanese slop eaters like it
They could have done something interesting but they don't need to you will buy it anyway
Yet another case of NHST.
>>58446410deviant art shit. KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID
Japanese love silly dumb shit.
>>58446439okay how about this one do you like it
>>58446255As if you faggots cared about my bro. Mega Starmie is a reference to my favorite thing, tokusatsu, and is MY bro, Starmie, so I love it. Fuck you fags.
>>58446485longer legs is funny, theres a lot you can do with that. adding unecessary bullshit is trying too hard
>>58446255It was obvious Japs was going to like this garbage, they're the reason these games sell
so silly and funny and goofy and whimsical
Quirky and subversive! Bravo Nintendo!
Woah! It's based on something
Oh my science! This design has grown on me!
Guys I think it's growing on me!
>>58446255Everyone loves it. It's kino as fuck.
>>58446410this is a good design for Lusamine's anal beads
>>58446410What we got is better than that shit, what hell is that monster
Is it true that it's an Ultraman reference?
Shiny Mega Starmiehttps://x.com/Viviennechannel/status/1979580196719358135
Haha look at him go!
>>58448342no i made that up
>>58446255It's arguably the best mega ever designed
>>58446255Normies who like the meme mons leave the games sooner than the committed fans. They just move onto the new funny game character
>they're catching on>quickly, make le wacky xd baitRedditors are literally 60 iq
The fanart, memes, and bad jokes are good. The mega itself is not. Simple as.
>>58448732Sounds like they're enjoying the franchise more than people who have been seething online for years
>>58448342Yes. Many of its animations are direct Ultraman references. Its also a reference to an old tokusatsu movie called warning from space.
>>58448732and the problem is the dedicated fans and the normies pay the exact same entry fee, so why pander to the smaller dedicated fans that will play regardless when you can sell to the normies?
>>58446255I hate it>>58448780I like all those things and I still hate it
>>58446255I feel like all the memes I've seen of it are laughing at it more than their laughing with it
>>58448804ehh, I'd give it a 50/50
>>58448780Huh, the movie predates Starro
>>58446485>Sacrifices flying by rotating>But can run really fast nowI like it when Megas make my Pokemon happy, like Pinsir or Aerodactyl
>>58448732Funnily enough ive seen several JP players saying they are buying the game just to see if Starmie is real
>>58448780>IT'S BASED ON SOMETHING
>>58446255No. It won't be in motion for any future game so this gag will be a one off waste of starmie. It being a meme means people will forget all about it in a few days and never look at it again.
>>58446255
>>58450104GENOCIDE CUTTA
>>58448804There's really no functional difference when it's deliberately goofy.
>>58446255this is now what starmie will be from now on
>NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOW COULD MY CHILDRENS GAME SERIES NOT BE 100% SERIOUS FOR ME A 34 YEAR OLD MANCHILD
>>58446255nice new toy bias, retard
>>58446255Starmie is my favorite mon and I love this megaThis and Mega Malamar are my favorite onrs from ZAMega Falinks, Drampa, Scolipede, Dragalge, Victreebel, Eelektross and Skarmory are also pretty good
>>58446255The popularity will dry out after a few days.That’s why goodyslop is bad. It gets the attention of low impulse and low IQ who latch onto it for a few days before their ADHD minds find something else.Meanwhile “edgy” designs (anything made serious) are always remembered years later because they end up being good designs
>>58446255>HITOdeMAN>hito means personKino design
>>58446255meme sale
>>58450505damn, Starmie looks like THAT?
>It's being made fun of so It's popular
>>58446255Man, I didn't expect to see Predator art of the starfish.
the truth of mega Starmie
>>58446270This. It's just funny because it's goofy. But under that laughter is a terrible mega design and we would not have been blessed with a such a terrible design were it not for Nintendo's laziness.
>>58450505>jewel not over boobsone fucking job
>>58450393>Doing supervillain monologues over Pokemon? que
>>58451806

>>58451937
>>58446255Mega Starmie was always the best Mega, but this board tends to deny the truth and are a bunch of gay retards who think shit like Mega Feraligatr is the golden standard.
average /vp/ kiddie can't handle kino
>>58450104>>58450139>Rugal's Genocide Cutter>Starmie evolves from Staryu>Staryu looks like the Asterons from Sonic 2>Which were intended to be in Genocide City Zone>Sonic and Terry Bogard debuted in 1991What does it all mean...
>>58451937>nobody likes itliterally everyone likes it though
>>58452742This board is no fun allowed unless it's masturbation
>>58452742>who think shit like Mega Feraligatr is the golden standard.Are you blind or retarded? Or both?
Fuck this franchise.
>>58451509DO YOU NOT KNOW HOW HORRIFYING STARFISH ARE?
>>58446255Goofy > Badass designs
>>58454867Modern Pokemon in a nutshell. They used to do a mix, but now they're like 90% goofy and 10% badass. You'll also notice IT'S THE DEVS VISION YOU DON'T GET TO CRITICIZE IT mouthbreathers who defend soulslop never fairly apply the same logic to things that aren't made for them.Real curious that.
>>58446410Bait?That's a bad change, what's even the idea here? It looks like it's fucking dying and falling apart.
It's the only mecha ga aside f om scolipede that is vaguely good. Everything else is completely shit.
>not buying the games>not rewarding GF's greed>still laughing my ass off at the memes and the fact they'd make a design so stupidtruly, the best of both worlds
>>58455063this. Ironic Detachment is the only enjoy the dumpster fire that is the main series. I have no respect for GameFreak, don't give a shit about megas, and actively hate the Pokemon fanbase. the difference between a tragedy and a comedy is how many fucks you give, and I ran out a long time ago.
This makes even more sense.
>>58449455And more have quit the game over how terrible the new meme designs are.
>>58454114>Are you blind or retarded? Or both?Them liking mega starmie should've made the answer obvious
>>58448197
>>58448789/vp/ms interpretation of “dedicated fans” are manchildren who brag about pirating and reviewbombing the newest games, while normies actually buy the games.
Whimsical
OMG IT DID THE LE HECKIN STARMAN WHOLESOME CHUNGUS POSE!!
>>58446255People seem to hate it and Mega Frosslass but I absolutely adore both of them.
>>58456522Yes it did, and we, yes WE, love it.
is there no defence for designing a mega based on how many twitter memes it will generate
How do japs feel about the fact that western zoomers hate mega Starmie?
>Its based on thing so its good
Kill all whimsyfags
Goffy but functional design
whimsy won albeit
>Starmie will forever be known as a cringe redditmonGrim
>>58446255The still images make it seem dumb, and to an extant it is. But seeing it move makes it feel eerie and ridiculous at the same time
japanese have the worst taste in fucking everything
>>58456727
>>58456776fug
>>58446410This is major over correction. It's just as bad, but in the opposite direction
>>58456793I agree, it's worse than the official because it hardly even resembles starmie.
Mega Starmie is shit, but the fanmade content more than makes up for it. Not enough to defend the design, of course, but damn if it doesn't produce a lot of quality art.
Watching the trend chasing slop eaters trying to unironically shame people into calling this laziness out is embarrassing. It astonishes me how someone can claim caring so much about something is cringe while they live and die by caring what their normies "friends" "think"
>>58456837NoBoth are the same degree of bad, but on different ends of the spectrum. The former is lazy garbage that can literally only survive by normies making jokes about it. The latter is so obnoxiously busy that it actually makes people feel dizzy just looking at it.
>>58456562based
>>58451906kek
>>58456855>>58456855>The former is lazy garbage that can literally only survive by normies making jokes about it.It has Japanese cultural significance. But for the west, it's just memesI'm not saying its good. But the fakemon, imo, is worse.
>>58456871>It's based on somethingIs this really the hill your are dying on?
>>58456896Don't put words in my mouth.
>>58446255Genuinely insane to me how there is a large group of people willing to excuse a less than 1/4 assed mega design simply because it looks kinda silly. Even more insane is that you could keep the long legs and still actually alter the design enough to not look like a project you only started working on 30 minutes prior to the deadline.
>>58456975Because it genuinely works thematically for Starmie
>>58456304>And more have quit the game over how terrible the new meme designs are.They didn't have the money to buy it to begin with, their intent is purely malicious, they lash out at the people that can afford their hobbies.
>>58457035Literally how??? Is it because of the whole alien idea, because Game Freak could have at least been assed to change its colors at the bare minimum. How is is it fitting for a Mega Starmie to not even bother changing its gemstone or even getting some random accents to its design?
>>58446255of course japs love it. japs love animal's assholes too. japs are fucking sick in the head. must be the lingering radiation fucking up their braincells
>>58446255Now we are on the same wave
>>58446255Can't wait to see how lazy the next batch of Pokemon for Gen 10 will be when people have lowered their standards far enough to like this trash.
>>58449804retard. that was in direct response to an anon wanting to know what it is based on
>>58457254lmao
>>58456575Art
>>58446255this mega was clearly designed to be used as a costume at events
>>58446255>MEME AND PORNWhat a sad state
>>58458963time is a flat circle
>>58458963>>58459023Kek, I love my Latin American brothers
Could anyone do this with Starmie instead of Rhodes? Should be standing on Kalos
>>58446485I wish the thighs were a bit thinner so it looked even more goofy running around
