>got a mega in za>still job to starter that never got any form of love from GFis emboar the biggest failed shillmon in this franchise history?
>>59223119It didn’t fail, it was deliberately sabotaged with its stats and ability.
>>59223128why would they give it a mega just so sabotaged it? That would imply they worshipped it enough to give it a mega but then decided last minute they hated and sabotaged it
>>59223136>kalostroon having a melty again because his narative of "mega are only for mons that matter" has been falling apart ever since za came out.
>>59223119why does Emboar have its own schizo now
>>59223119PFFFFFTHQHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAHAHAAAA
>>59223148falseflagging is the only way he can keep his floppig relevant
Gamefreak cares very little about balance. They'll release a few purposely broken Pokémon each gen to shill the latest game like Incineroar, Urshifu and Mega Floette but that's it, I assure you they barely gave a thought about mega Emboar's ability or stats.
>>59223136You should go ask GameFreak. My guess is so they wouldn’t have to make the Mega for Emboar in the future, and because there is an unwriten rule that every starter trio has to have at least 1 flop, sometimes 2.I don’t know why they do this, they just do.
>>59223147>100 Free stats>more often than not a broken ability>Being in the same exclusive club as CHARIZARD>mountains for free shilling >not mattering lol lmao even
>>59223119It's so shit lmfao
>>59223174/vp/ are the only one that care about a Pokemon "flopping"and /vp/ never used to care, it's just the zoomies that infest the board now
>>59223119>Failed three timesJesus Christ......
>>59223119If they wanted to shill it they would've given him a cool ability
>>59223176>bort think his favourite pig that flopped three times will ever be part of chadzard clublol
>>59223193mold breaker is a great ability tho. Shitboar is just too much of a shitmon to use it properly
>>59223222Trips of Truth
>>59223119DELETE THIS
>>59223222Mega Emboar would have been fine if it got Tough Claws or something.A bulky Physical Fire type neutral to Rock and hits you with its 148 Atk 120 BP STABs boosted by Tough Claws would have actually been scary.You’re faster than Incineroar while resisting its STABs, oneshot even bulkier Sneasler with Heat Crash, oneshot Basculegion with Sucker Punch, and you’re even dealing 66% minimum to Physically bulky Milotic and OHKOing if all they have is HP investment.32+ Atk Tough Claws Emboar-Mega Close Combat vs. 32 HP / 32+ Def Milotic: 135-159 (66.8 - 78.7%) -- guaranteed 2HKO32+ Atk Tough Claws Emboar-Mega Close Combat vs. 32 HP / 0 Def Milotic: 195-231 (96.5 - 114.3%) -- 81.3% chance to OHKOThat’s the difference 30% can make.
POP QUIZone of these pokemon hasn't been buffed in over decade, and is directly competing with a version of itself immune to fake out with higher special attack the other just got the gimmick that created Mega Zard Y, Mega Kang, Mega Mawile, and Mega RayQay guess who is who. >>59223219I mean, Emboar IS part of the "Chadzard" club. The fact that its shit even by ZA's embarrassing standards is irrelevant. At least its mega looks cool unlike the toilet weaker than its own baby >>59223222ironically Emboar's move pool is too good for mold breaker. Anything with an ability that counters one of Emboar's STAB could be taken care of by one of Emboar's other moves. >>59223174Game Freak is a bunch of monkeys throwing feces at each other then making a game out of what doesn't stick. There is handful of pokemon they make damn sure are strong, no pounts for guessing who the ZA favorite was, but everything else is just a roll of the dice.
>>59223119Feraligatr failed too don’t worry bro
>>59223457Now Feraligatr is an actual fail. GameFreak clearly tried making Mega Feraligatr actually good, but ended up being mid.Mega Emboar was designed to be shit from the start, and ended up being shit like GameFreak intended.
>>59223343>typedo now has to compare itself to emboar since it lost hard to meganium>even then it only wins by 0.03%FUCKING GRIM.
>>59223176>Mold Breaker>broken abilityYou might be hella retarded
>>59223510inb4 detractors because they're too prideful to accept defeat
>>59223119Emboar is better than all of those mons imo. A free NP and the serotonin that clicking Shell Smash gives is just more attractive at base.
>>59223510>fire starter that was never shilled compares itself to the fire starter shilllmon compared to the grass starter shillmon you're not very smart are you
>>59223119Yeah massive difference
>>59223510at least hisuian badger has respectable usage
>>59223176Literally name 1 case where Mold Breaker on a Fire Fighting type is relevant in this format
>>59223531Pedo Freak new a Mega Typhlosion that was immune to fake out would overshadow the shilllmons, hense it being a regional form instead >>59223529considering how TPC treats megas like gods, its huge. It's like Herucles losing a race to homeless cripples.
>>59223556So instead we got a fake out immune Eruption spammer to pair up with Mega CHARIZARD Y's sunThank you
>>59223501It really highlights the possibility that there’s maybe one or two competent designers on the team and the rest are winging it.
>>59223574>typedo has to cope with the original being a replaced megalet shitmon because the tranny regional can be used to prop up CHARIZARD humilation ritual
>>59223639>trannybut enough about meganium
>>59223655Bodied that freak
>>59223543Wonder G- oh...
>>59223655Stop watching porn.
>>59223119Beats getting an actual ability like Feraligatr did and still being shit. At least Emboar can walk away with an actual design instead of a failed meme.
>>59223672? what does porn have to do with trans meganiumsshare the tranny meganium porn with the class anon
>>59223639>>59223655>>59224255Based tranny obsessers
>>59223119The biggest flop of all the starters, fucker failed THREE times
>>59224266A failure failing again isn’t surprising. The bigger flop is the Totodile line that went from beloved to a complete joke
>>59223457feraligatr was designed to flop by being from gen 2meanwhile GF has been pushing hard for years and it’s still less popular than Rillaboom, another starter designed to flop.
>>59224325>Totodile line>belovedhow to easily spot someone who’s first game was hgss 101
>>59224583Chikorita is loved in Japan and worst Korea thobeit
>>59224586>the jotho starter shillmon is popular no shit Sherlock
>>59224603why do fags keep spelling it "jotho" decades later?
