>>34727445>I don't think you should cave so easily to popular opinionI wouldn't consider myself caving in to popular opinion. Drapion sets out to do a thing, it achieves a thing and people like it for such thing. It's well made, just not for me. Just like a bed can be well-made so that it's comfy and soft for relaxing on which some people want, a bed can also be firm and hold its position which makes you feel safer. Neither's wrong and I personally like the latter.
>>34727390I used to hate Cofagrigus as well, actually. For similar reasons, even. I liked how Yamask was a cute little past-life spirit with a sad attachment to a material object
and this is where I'll get passionate, there aren't enough fucking ghosts that have a reason to be attached or chained to the living world - they just are ghosts to be ghosts. Fuck the Ghost type. But then, and this is something both specific to me and you, I stopped putting what I wanted over what was there. I found things to enjoy and like about Cofagrigus and though it was different from what I liked in Yamask, that's no reason for me not to like what's in Cofagrigus. They're both great in their own right. I'm in the minority of the fanbase where I don't put expectations in any Pokemon and like to see them interact or complement each other with their differences; I actually prefer it when there's drastic differences in the line so if I don't like one I might like the other and learn to see the beauty in both through their companionship.
