Is there a pokemon that makes you irrationally mad cause mega feraligatr does that to me. Every time I see this thing I get pissed off I feel like apu when he hears about billy and the cloneasaurs, what were they thinking?

Why didn't you post this in the thread that's already up?
I think I got psyop'd into liking mgator. If so many obnoxious faggots hate it so much then it can't be all that bad.

Coalossal.
Loved Rolycoly the moment he was announced, and you can not convince me Carkoal is supposed to evolve into a shittier Rhyperior instead of a locomotive.

The mere fact that 90% (if not more) of this pokemon's artwork is trying to convey a message of "hey guys, look how funny it is being silly with Totodile!" or attempting to fix the design proves how bad it is.
>>
>>59315365
official artwork of that thing (and like 50% of fan art) is trying as hard as possible to make the design edgy or ferocious looking. the rest of it is mostly “fixing” the design. if your own artists can’t decide if the mon is supposed to be edgy or goofy then there’s a problem with how you’ve intended the design to be communicated. Someone fucked up

Incineroar. It was so close to peak but we got Tony rhe tiger instead of something like pic rel

If that was the case, they'd have just made its design look like that from the get--go instead of turning it into an overgrown totodile. And the "fans" can't handle the fact it wasn't that fucking popular in the first place, so small wonder they're trying to force it.

This sprite made me slowly warm up to it. Feels like poor execution.
>"Hood" should be down so it could serve as a protection
>"Transformed" arms should be default arms so it wouldn't need two models to work
Such missed potential, not sure how they screwed up a simple concept this badly

Same as yours. I put up with a lot of bullshit from this franchise, but them ruining my favorite Pokemon like this was the last straw for me. Many anons will call me a whiner for it, but I don't care. This franchise has rotted too much for me to keep caring.
I didn't buy PLZA, I'm not buying a Switch 2, and I'm not planning on supporting any Pokemon products for the foreseeable future.
If Gamefreak are gonna shit on fans like this, there's no reason to stick around.

>>59315178
Is this the single biggest example of game freak hating a pokemon, intentionally sabotaging it, or just being spiteful?

Nah, the rape story isn’t canon whereas toiletgatr is so the latter wins out in the humiliation Olympics.

Mmmnot seeing it. As I said, if they wanted to do that in the first place, they wouldn't have made it look so much like its far more beloved base stage.

>>59315583
Not Game Freak, but TPC refusing to include Incineroar in Unite, even though it's a great pokemon for that game.

Also the rape story was written by one guy. all it proves is that one pedophile who acted alone really hated Typhlosion. It’s not a measure of game freak’s view of typhlosion aside from it not being a turbo shillmon (if it were the pedo would have been too scared to use typhlosion for the story).
The lack of mega could be used an argument since every other pre gen 4 starter got one, except it got a regional form, which is a form of shilling despite not directly benefiting the Pokémon. Also the fact that starters with regional forms are rarer than starter with mega despite megas being the coveted Charizard shill gimmick, which calls into question the prestige of megas in the first place

Meanwhile Mega Gatr (like all released designs) was a collaborative effort and had to go through multiple hands up the chain of command and being given the seal of approval every single step of the way. Also it’s a mega, the supposed apex of a pokemon’s identity, what a Pokemon represents, what it fundamentally is. How game freak wants the world to see that pokemon

TLDR. In terms of hate,
Humilation ritual mega >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>one scraped shitpost and missing out on an overrated gimmick

Sorry sister, I'm not the one projecting my personal opinion on the fanbase as an overall whole, like you. It's kinda amazing Emboar got a mega that expanded upon its design, Meganium got one that expanded on its design, yet Feraligatr got one that expanded on its base stage.
Almost as if when Game Freak staffers sat down to design more mega forms to make merch and shill shit at people, they specifically chose NOT to expand on feraligatr's design because they have the hard numbers no cunt knows and know what to do and not do to sell merch of their shit. But what do I know, I'm just looking at what they officially put out and highlighting the aberrations in their choices.

Imagine crying because you don't like one design. It's like if I gave up on Pokemon because I don't like Luvdisc
>>59315443
I'd prefer Pokemon NOT look like Ben 10, thank you
>>
>>59315738
Yeah, on both publick polls it ranked higher than the base form, both Internationally and Japanese
https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_of_the_Year
It's a fucking retarded decision, but I unfortunately see the logic for a form that was, from inception, designed to sell toys.
>>
>>59315763
yes, but western influence is largely meaningless and we know that Meganium wasn’t subject to the same shit despite being in the same situation as Feraligatr (even worse in its case too). some retard thought they were being smart and clever when they weren’t
>>
>>59315810
Feraligatr didn't even make top 30 Johto Pokemon in Japan in 2021 at all, which makes Totodile barely coming in at the bottom more surprising (or it would if it wasn't the comic relief first stage like the later Piplup or Rowlett). As for why Mega Meganium didn't get the same treatment, I don't think they can make a form about wanting to fuck human men.

Dumbass, it's not just one design. Recent dexes have been weak. The games have been weak. The franchise has been degrading for over a decade.
But yes, this one design is what got me to seethe. Like I said, it's not the only straw, but somehow it was the last straw.

All GF had to do was give proper musculature and not-horrible hands. You can see the former in its Smash render, it such a simple fix but it elevates the design a lot.

How can you fucks be racist then not know how to use your own language properly
Learn what irrationally means
>>
>>59321069
It is the anger that is irrational, not the rationale behind it. It is irrational to be as angry as one is, not to be angry at all. This is because white people attempt to not lash out unless it's absolutely required.

>>59315178
I hate dragonite for it's goofy design and it's busted ability and the fact that I can't use tera blast on showdown cause the smogon councilfags would rather ban a part of a generational mechanic than a cancerous abuser of it and I'll never buy a post USUM pokemon game by game freak who also loves to fellate fagonite the goofy dragon. It's mega looks retarded too, give megas to dragon pokemon who need one like haxorus and hydreigon who are actually cool dragons

Also lance raped me many times when I was younger playing HGSS

I love Feraligatr so seeing it's line terminating in an unoriginal reference that has nothing to do with it or its prevos whilst having to breaks its model in game just to work pisses me off. Maybe in 90 years there will be another Mega to replace it.
