>>21225344This here's one of my favorite pics. Charizard may have lost the charm it had when i was 10 yrs old, but that doesn't mean it suddenly became bad. In fact, it has a great, simple and memorable design that still remains among my top 20, regardless of what people say.
>>21225381For your mental health, it'd be good for you to simply not care about WHO it's associated with. For example, most people i see that like Chesnaught tend to be VERY sexually deviant, what some may call barafags. Maybe selective reduction could help blot out those people from the fanbase, considering that what YOU see are gentle people. But as stated, that doesn't change a single thing about the final design. Chesnaught is great regardless of if it's liked by barafags or not. I know it's human nature to feed your ego by having "backup"of sorts, but personally, i have friends for that. If you're gonna let a bunch of anonymous strangers with wildly different knowledge and opinions craft the meaning of "acceptable"or not, you'll end up with a garbled mess. Life is too finite to actually achieve the total approval of an ever-growing population.
