This anon pretty much has it spot on >>19663683

First, it looks like a wolf. A lot of people like wolves. Second, it's got lots of black and has some spikes. Those things are cool by themselves, but are also very popular with the same people who like wolves, so the coolness factor is mutliplied.

Third, it's fighting/steel, two types which many people think are cool. If it was fighting/dark it would be even more popular.

It's design is the biggest thing. All the other problems (gets it's own story arc in X/Y, shit tier fanbase, and it's portrayal in the anime) are by-products of it's well received design.

I don't even care for this pokemon but its hatebase on this site is almost annoying as all the autistic fans and furries. It's a popular pokemon with (as the general consensus on vp goes) with a mediocre design that gets a lot of recognition from the big GF. So what? I don't see nearly as much bitching from people about the Kanto starters, specifically Charizard, getting shoved down everyone's throat. The only thing Charizard lacked was its own subplot in X and Y.

I've never liked Lucario, ever since I first laid my eyes upon it I thought it was very distasteful, long before it was the biggest furbait out there and everybody used it.
Even to this day I still don't like it, but GF seems to be adamant that they will make everybody use it and love it.

The best I can do is avoid it and use pokémon I like, because GF sure as hell isn't going to care what I think when they can please many more.

Lucario wasn't so much shoved down people's throats, so much as it is that was offered to them, and they happily accepted it.

Once Gen 5 came along, they tried to replicate Lucario's success with Zoroark, but Zoroark failed to become as popular as Lucario, so they abandoned it, and put Lucario back into the spotlight. When BW2 were first announced to have older Pokemon available during the main game, Riolu/Lucario was one of the promoted Pokemon.

There's also the Aura. A super duper special unique power which makes him even more marketable.

Lucario is a perfectly crafted Pokemon for that. If they could get away with replacing Pikachu with him they would.

Why do people hate the Pokemon itself and not the faggots that fetishize it? The only reason people think of Lucario as furbait is because of the sick fucks that turn it into a sex object in the first place.

And the anime makes several Pokemon look much stronger than they actually are (look at Pikachu with it's spirit bomb-sized electro ball).

I understand that people hate Lucario's design, but what exactly makes a Pokemon design "good"? Is it the color? The type? The number of fucking hairs it has on its head? Most people who hate Pokemon like Lucario should be hating the fanbase, not the Pokemon itself.

I see the occasional poképhile thread on /vp/ (disregarding obvious samefag spammers like the goodra faggot), but not enough to convince me the whole board are furfags - a vocal minority of furfags

>If they could get away with replacing Pikachu with him they would.
I could honestly see that happening. Ash gets a Lucario in the anime, then it appears more and more, eventually replacing Pikachu as Ash's ace completely.
Then they'd spit on it by evolving Pikachu.

Just as an objective FYI, but fans tend to dig the pokemon stars of each and every movie that came out (except maybe Keldeo cuz fuck that shitty movie). After all, the movie's entire purpose is to promote the next generation or just cool legendaries that kids would want to see. Lucario's a special case since his movie was the introduction to the Sinnoh era, not to mention having Mew and the Regis in the film as well.

tl;dr: It's not really a surprise as to how lucario got popular.
