>>58703289>Tepig's attention is, in fact, deserved. It's the least popular starter with nothing going on for it for years. NTA but how are we judging “deserve”? One of the reasons for GAME FREAK’s CHARIZARD fetish (outside of it being a blantant industry plant) is that a lot of people do like Charizard. So there some logic. If anything Emboar lack of popularity means it “deserves” to be dexcut forever a have its reputation ruined with something worse than pedophilia. given. (Since most pokefags are assholes who genuinely believe that about Pokémon that aren’t shillmons I should clarify that I don’t think that, I’m just following the logic people use to justify typhlosion getting abuse from pedo freak
>It wasn't even in a Switch game until SV. Therefore, it needed the mega buff more than Typhlosion. Typhlosion hasn’t gotten buffed since Gen 4 gave it Eruption. And even then gen4’s powecreep fucked it over far more. It’s the only pre gen 4 starter that’s pretty much never been buffed and nearly every starter after is minmaxed as with near prefect coverage and a broken ability to go with it. Admittedly Emboar is the rare example of one who isn’t so it genuinely needs a buff, but before Typhlosion? Who was trapped in some faggot lizard’s shadow since before Emboar was even a sketch?
>Typhlosion was already in both BDSP BDSM is a booby prize at best but fair >and PLA with a new regional variant.While regional forms count as shilling they don’t buff the original and thanks to game freak’s blood libel the regional actively hurts typhlosion since it just connects it more to that disgusting story. What’s funny is that’s in anon/anons saying regionals are given to pokemon to as anti-shilling are arguably right in the case of typhlosion.
