Especially since it’s hard to be “star of a movie that was only obtainable in its first game via an event that you needed to have had the event Pokemon you got for going to said movie transferred in from the previous generation, and also starting from its game team compositions are public knowledge in PvP so it’s gimmick loses the element of surprise”

I will forcefully transform you into a lv 1 Vulpix and then set you out in Unova, Kojo!

Legends ZA mindbroke this board.
That aside I would definitely inflate a Zoroark to the point she has blimp tits and puffy stumps for sunken in limbs.

Zoroark didn't flop at its intended purpose, which was to make Japanese children miss Lucario and demand its return, fulfilled swiftly in B2W2 as well as the Pokemon Sunday Variety Show, wherein Zoroark briefly usurped Lucario as one of the mascot costumes.

Sorry, too busy having fun with my ballooned Zoroark right now.
>>
>>59212293
Zoroark is still very popular and I'd argue it's actually more popular than it should be given how badly sabotaged it was in regards to every piece of its marketing/availability. It's actually incredible how badly GameFreak fumbled with it.
An actual failed one would be one of the least popular starters because not finding success while being one of "the big 3" of a region is a heavy task.
>>

Hey you are onto something
Maybe they should make a Gladion special game

I think the biggest reason it flopped was because it was a one time event Pokémon only. Most people never got it. Most people didn’t even know you could get it. It was such a horrible decision.

This Zoroark on the other hand is in my top 10 Pokemon.
>>
>>59212298
its probably some newtard that just learned the word or just your average shitposter with no life

Still scared of natures and evs?

>>59212293
Do we count Toxicity as a shillmon? Gameplaywise it hits all the beats (you get a baby, it has a gimmick, major trainers have it) but in everything else TPC goes out of its way to make it invisible to the public. It's Kadabra and Porygon levels of anti-shilling.

Kojo got filtered by BW because you need basic reading skills to fully enjoy the game.
Now he is shitting himself and seething every time hhe says anything unova.
>>
OP here, holy shit, what have I done..Just for info, I actually like Zoroark but it just didn't get as popular because of GameFreak brain damage. Other names I would say are Incineroar (highly unpopular design, only saved by vgc) and that Pikachu clone Nemona uses in SV.
>>
>>59212604
>highly unpopular design
Always ranks high in popularity polls thobeit
>>
>>59212593
Okay, that doesn't really explain anything about why if Kojo is a guy that hates on Unova then why are you saying it in a thread where no one is hating on Unova? And I'm not sure how BW requires any more reading skills than any other pokemon game so I don't get how that could filter anyone unless they just hate the whole series.

It's quite well made. The Zorua is even cuter and the Zoroark feels more monstrous.
Biggest hit from Hisui, the reveal trailer and anime special certainly helped too.

True, but It’s not like it has any competition. TPC as a whole clearly regrets Hisui for som reason

In a vain attempt to bring this thread back on topic, here's the real answer:

>>59212662
I forgot that thing existed.
Have legit never encountered one ever aand only know it from the wiki.
>>
>>59212662
It's only a flop outside of Japan, in Japan it's dearly beloved and Japanese boys, its intended target audience, flip their shit every single time it shows up.

This, it's more accurate to say that it's a highly controversial design. Gen 7 is like the only newer gen where all the starters are close in popularity.
It's like when anons say that Dragonite is "highly unpopular" but then Dragonite (and Mega Dragonite) consistently gets one of the top Kanto spots in polls.
>>59212652
Not fully? Because why then would they bring up Hisui in Scarlet/Violet? It's not like Hisui mons get zero merch either (but I think most of the merch I've seen is of Hisuian Zorua). And some spin-offs have Hisui mons, like Mastersex and Cafe.
>>
>>59212662
The kamen rider scarf is cool I will like any design with one on matter how stupid
>>
>>59212708
> then would they bring up Hisui in Scarlet/Violet
Being allowed to exist into the next game is the barest of bare minimums and iirc some of mons like wyrdeer for their evo method butchered or something
>merch
I’ve barely seen any aside from Zorua and maybe one thing with starters. It’s something at least but compare the next to nothing Hisui got compared to the ZA shilling
>mastersex
Fair point.
>cafe
Funny joke
>>
>>59212630
Great design. Best typing in the game.
>>
>>59212708
Exactly. It not being a near universal fan favorite like Zard doesn’t make it unpopular.

I have a shiny Zeraora from the max raid event in SWSH[/spoiler].
Literally the only Pokemon whose shiny is more common than the actual regular Pokemon.
>>
>>59212303
only Emboar can be considerd a shillmon, Serperior has never been shilled and all Samurott got is a regional replacemnt, which is only happens to pokemon outside of Gen 1 iif Game Freak thinks they're fodder shitters.
of course Emboat flopped when with its mega, but that's just makes Emboar alone a flopped shillmon. The other two are merely just flops.
>>
>>59212828
A spooky evil mean fox ghost.

>>59212293
Poliwhirl was the OG shillmon, and got unceremoniously replaced with pikachu when it got turbo-popular.
>>
>>59214292
>Poliwhirl was the OG shillmon

No it wasn't. It was always Pikachu.
>>
>>59212293
>let's draw a kitten plush
yup hisui were a mistake
>>
>>59214299
maybe if game freak had person who respected pokemon make PLA instead of a lazy pedophile, then hisui would be good and not a mistake
>>
>>59212662
Literally just a mythical. Where did you get shillmon from? Gen 7s shill is Mimikyu
>>
>>59214279
>which is only happens to pokemon outside of Gen 1 iif Game Freak thinks they're fodder shitters.
wdym most of the Alola Regionals were fodder shitters. Kantomons fell off hard I think the only ones that were still used by Gen VII were Exeggutor, Ninetales (before Ninetales-A and Torkoal replaced it) and Dugtrio (because its regional was so dogshit it couldn't compete)

Marowak, Muk and Sandslash got it BAD

You're thinking of Clefairy, it was supposed to be the mascot but they switched to Pikachu because it had more unisex appeal.
>>59214312
It got its own movie. And it always felt to me like Zeraora was a half-assed attempt to replicate Lucario's success.
>>
>>59212382
Stop sexualizing Pokemon.
