>>21734925As a faker, I'll answer this from my perspective. I made the fake screen grab of Mega Ludicolo/Shiftry "leaking" on serebii. It took me about thirty minutes to make with html coding (serebii's website is actually pretty intuitive) and a little bit of time in Paint. I wasn't even the original faker. I was distracting myself from writing a report and just made it for keks. I did it because it's just fun to lie, I guess, to see people reply to your
bullshit.To be a part of the hype train.
The best part is when people tear apart your shit in ways you didn't expect. Like, people saying that the ads on the side of the website were misaligned so it was clearly Photoshopped, even though I didn't touch that part of the page at all. My stuff was even in that one zangoose guy's videos.
I didn't do it to be some lebin rusemaster on 4chan, I did it cause I knew I could and I would get people contemplating some thing that I made, which is a neat feeling, if those people are all idoit autists who like pokemans.
