>>31032159Just because a pokemon is powerful doesn't automatically make it a fan favorite. If that was the case, everyone's favorite pokemon would be a legendary. Visual design plays a lot into the popularity of a pokemon, just because something has good stats and moves doesn't mean it will be popular unless it looks cool/cute/
sexy too.
