>>41137579>protean is what made people forget about the early backlashBut i already showed you that's not the case. People clearly did a 180 as soon as the amie pic leaked and i showed proof. Do you want me to go on Twitter and Facebook to look up reactions at the time too? Because that would also be easy.
> cinderace's equivalent to the amie pic was the fanart that people were making based on the original blurry strategy guide image.Except that by the time that pic released Cinderace was not the clear cut favorite of the fanbase. Greninja had double-digits percentage leads (as high as 24% over the others) in all polls by the time we got clear images of the 3 starters. Before Libero we also had clear images of the 3 Galar starters + the artbook Leak, but Cinderace was still below the other 2 in most cases, so it's not the same.
>shitelleon has "won" some popularity polls too and is still a total laughingstockOr maybe... just maybe... Detractors tend to be more vocal about their detractions? The Artbook leak helped Inteleon more than it did Cinderace
because.It helped people see it more dynamically, which kinda like Greninja's Amie pic, helped see it in a new light. I know most of my group began loving it after finger gun was revealed.
