>>28548186Yes, and? Bewear's popularity is pretty much solely consisting of stupid jokes anyway. His design is supposed to inflict uneasiness and with that situational jokes. Him going to the running gag characters was a given and the possibility of him getting popular with the kids due to said running gags is better than one throwaway episode that no one will give a shit about and consequently disappearing forever in the literally who rows of Pokemon.
At least with this he has a chance to become a bit more popular.
