>>56904272I hate that the anime forced this trope on certain Pokemon to make new Pokemon look cool or use the cliche of bigbadpokemon being defeated by the little weakling.
For example every time a Gyarados, Machamp, Fearrow, Aggron appears, you know it will be defeated by the power of friendship. The only time they inverted this trope was with the red panda from Alola, that thing was no joke.
