>>36977424>prominent appearancesHe was the secondary antagonist of a movie and appeared in like 5-6 episodes AT BEST out of a 100 where he was moderetely relevant in only 3, oh yeah, what prominent appearances, get the fuck out, literally trying to claim Incineroar is on par with Lucario and Greninja in levels of shilling is the most retarded thing i readed here in a long time
>excellent stats or abilities making them top picks in battleGreninja and Lucario were are still top dogs in the meta, or at least very good in singles, which is the most prominent battle format of pokemon, Incineroar is very meh singles and is only very good on VGC
>have tons of merch or media appearances outside of the main games and animeWhat a fucking lie, i have seen far more merchandise for Decidueye and Primarina than Incineroar, even Mimikyu and Lycanroc get more merchandise than Incineroar. The only media appearance outside of the games that Incineroar got lately was being in smash, but you retards use that as if it was undeniable proof
