>>20740279>I think you can say Lucario was shoved in considering that GF specifically designed and pushed it to be the mascot of Gen 4.At the beginning? Sure, yeah, I'll agree. But as I'm sure you know, they wouldn't continue to do so if it wasn't legitmately popular. See Zoroark.
>Megazard-Omega and Megazard-Alpha to be real things just so I can watch people cry about how they've officially dropped Pokemon only for them to still buy both versions of the Hoenn remakes day 1.Oh god, this.
I'd like to think I have a wide taste in Pokemon. I like Lucario, Bisharp, Hydreigon, but I also like lesser popular 'mons like Kecleon, Samurott and Tropius. So I'm pretty unbiased when it comes to selection of what gets what.
That being said, as a fan of Charizard, I am fucking ecstatic, to this day, that Charizard got not 1 top OU mega, but 2, both of which pander directly to the tastes of Charizard fans (one way or the other).
It sure shut all those "hurr durr Charizard stealth rock, destined for NU for all eternity" shitposters right the fuck up. I wouldn't even complain if he got 2 more, just to laugh at everyone.
