>>21242988I was there when it happened, happened here (MUH CHESBROS FROAKIE A SHIT RITE GUISE??? They pushed it real hard) and other places, people shat on Froakie because he was a frog and and his design was either lame/boring (just a frog lel) or retarded (cotton collar wtf???).
When the second evos where released Froakie gained a bit more of traction but people still loved Braixen more for the obvious reasons, Quilladin was now the most hated starter.
When Greninja was revealed everyone hated it for the design, it was only when people saw him on amie that they started warming up it because of its goofiness.
I know what I'm talking about, I was there. I was here.
