If hitting your own Virizion with "Beat Up" during a double battle raises its attack by 6 stages through its ability "Justified", letting it start sweeping from turn 1, does that mean that Virizion is secretly a masochistic BDSM slut who enjoys getting beaten up by its own team member?
I think its the inverse, it just hates dark type moves so much that even an ally using them pisses it off enough to hit +6
>>59157481>>59157485The answer is whichever makes your penis harder, anons
>>59157485But then why is Virizion hitting herself? Since her attack is one of the ones hitting her. Is she getting mad at herself for doing it? Is she getting mad at herself for liking it?
>>59157650Because that's how the move works, if Virizion is mad at anyone its probably its trainer.
>>59157650>herself>her>sheVirizion is literally Aramis from the Three Musketeers but as a Pokémon, you dumbass.
>>59157695Actually I think it’s Virizion, not whatever you said
>>59157695But Virizion doesn't have a gun?
>>59157695You’re the dumbass. The deer quartet are specifically based on the musketeers in the anime adaptation, where Aramis was a woman. Virizion is a woman in PMD to reflect this.Incidentally, the director of the Three Musketeers anime (Yuyama) also directed the Pokemon anime from gens 1-7, and chose to represent Virizion, again, as a woman in the Keldeo movie.
>>59157695Japan gender flipped Artemis in anime adaptations, to make him less gay to their populace. Virizion's based off the anime adaptations of the three musketeers.
>>59157741>less gayWasn't Aramis the one that was fucking all the women?Wouldn't changing him to be girl make him/her more gay?
>>59157775You’re right and the anon you’re replying to is wrong. Aramis was a ladykiller, and a debaucherous and perfidious pretty boy at odds with his faith. It’s clear they redesigned him as a girl just for the sake of having the cute crossdressing girl knight trope over a bad boy yumebait.
>>59157481oh i'd beat her ass alright
Virizion wireless
>>59157903I know how Dumas portrayed him originally. I also know such perceptions don't hold up to modern standards, much less those influenced by masculinity standards that were rife between the mid-to-late 20th century in Japan. Hence why Japan made him less gay, by being a woman making his effeminate characteristics naturalistic instead.
>>59158088There's nothing regarding the chatacter original portrayal that would particularly make him "gayer" than, say, James Bond or Lupin; he's a fairly straightforward lecherous duelist archetype, while someone like Porthos would at least fit geikomi/bara fat fucks that were already popular to make gay characters at the time. It's pretty obvious Aramis was changed because Rose of Versailles had just gotten huge, and portraying a classic gentleman as secretly a cross dressing woman was in style.
the only non ugly sword of justice
>>59159254no theyre all ugly as shit including this one
>>59157741there's nothing particularly tying the sword's of justice to the anime incarnation other than that's the only version some jap's are familiar with. so some japs do genuinely have the misconception that aramis was female because they haven't read the original same way a whole lot of japs genuinly think Xuanzang was female because just how many japanese journey to the west adaptations genderswap him.but gamefreak clearly knew the originals.
>>59159358And yet they permitted, if not outright encouraged the franchise's presentation of Virizion as female, ignoring the originals in entirety.>>59158229Funny the land that ADORES bishie pretty bois decided they needed to re-write a classic to put a woman in the trio. Quod erat demonstrandum.
>>59160412because bifauxnen was even bigger at the team even if lady oscar was herself designed after the msot famous IRL bishounen or perhaps because of that. japanese women go crazy over women that look exactly like feminine men. and pokemon spin-offs portraying verizon as flamboyant and effeminate is actually a notable difference from anime aramis who lacked all the flashiness of OG Aramis. And she really was just a new character replacing Aramis in the story while Verizon Wireless does at least take some actual Aramis inspiration.
