As a rule, fanboys or girls will listen patiently when it is told of the reasons why some Pokémon are worse than others, based off of what emotions it arouses in its supporters and of characteristics it behold. But if one proceeds to scrape away the golden paint from those Pokémon, for instance, whose reasons for being enjoyed involve being a gregarious person, "unselfish," or of belonging to the umbrella known as "nobility," and point out how all these proclivities and character traits that makes the beholders consider these Pokémon of their standard or type invariably arise from purely selfish, ignorant, or shallow desires and emotions, and the bulk of the fanbase will immediately become both upset and distempered. And why?
Only because a huge proportion of the fans of these maligned Pokémon find the very basis of their self-esteem, their taste, and their strengths in the activities enumerated. To reveal the root of these activities, is therefore to wound and remove these people in and from their sanctuary of vanity; and those who are targeted usually retaliate with arguments and flames filled with both rancor and rage. It is certain that these men did not write merely to vex and disturb the world more than to correct it, but because they realized that falsifications and exaggerations of sentiment are dangerous and eventually leaks its way into the weathered stones of intemperance and fulfillment.
