Best taste comin through, move over fags.

>Is it good in-game?

Yes. Especially Speed Boost, 6iv Adamant Blaziken with Swords Dance.

>Is it good competitively?

Yes sort of. It needs all of its special attack placed into its attack. It needs a powerful +2 priority130 base power fire move. It has a shitty mega so that sucks. It needs a boost there too.... basically it's good but it could use MAJOR help so it can succeed.

>What is its fanbase like?

Great. Its an underrated pokemon, although being a starter is shitty.

>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?

I guess it's alright. But it needs more help. Especially the mega. Give it that +2 priority move I said above and have that be the requirement for it to mega evolve. So it can hold items. Also take 40 points from the megas special attack and give it to his attack.

>Why is it your favorite?

I started with Red/Blue but the pokemon in the games(along with g/s) looked like shit thanks to the Gameboy color being shit. So I found the games cool but didn't fall in love until the beautiful r/s games came out. I felt a real connection with Torchic because I was finally able to understand what the fuck was going on in the games sprites. I like birds. I like fighting pokemon. I always imagined Blaziken as a strong freedom fighter.

Dude, I mean that there is no reason to use Mega Blaziken over regular Blaziken. It's useless. The special attack is a huge waste. It needs 40 of those to go into his attack.

You realize you're suggesting it to have 200 base attack? That's a one-way ticket to Anything Goes. The main draw of using Mega Blaziken over regular Blaziken is the +20 speed boost it got; it's extremely important because it allows it to at least speed tie with choice scarfed base 100 speed mons, of which there are a fuckton.

The 40 measly points it gets on mega evolving is irrelevant because of Life Orb. Speed is Irrelevant when you have Speed Boost... and why would you not have Speed Boost? Seriously, Mega Blaziken is one of the worst megas in the game. It has no use and needs to created from scratch again.

Irrelevant? It doesn't take damage every turn with a mega stone, not to mention damage from Brave Bird. And no, speed isn't irrelevant with speed boost. You have to actually have turns gaining the speed, which can matter.

Except it's not. You can only reap 1 boost for free with Protect, and +1 base 80 isn't even that fast anymore. The +20 base speed boost is critical.

200 without an item isn't that much. For example, there are two pokemon with above 600 attack already.

>>23203230
>>23203242

I understand that. It's obviously better to have those extra 20 points in speed. But those cost you your mega slot. Is that worth it when other than that the regular pokemon can do the job better? No it isn't worth it.

The thing is that even mega Mewtwo x is suffering because 190 without items(or a strong stab or swords dance) isn't great. Mega Medicham also goes above 600 attack. But like I keep saying, without an item 200 base attack isn't threatening since theres several pokemon who have higher attack with items.

Seriously, why no defiant, guts or adaptability GF? Lucario and Gallade have shared abilities since gen 4 and all of a sudden they stopped sharing for mega evolution?
>Fun to use since flexible movepool allows for all kinds of shenanigans +110 speed permits it. and I like swordsmen ever since Samurai Jack, Afro Samurai and Bleach.

I don't know, never had the chance to use it. My guess is yes.

Yes, i've used it on my most successful ladder team and never once did it disappoint me. Utility in spades.
>What is its fanbase like?
I don't think i've ever seen someone admit to liking this guy. It's always just sub-1200s complaining about his shitty toxistall set.
>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
OU FOREVER BAY-BEE
>Why is it your favorite?
Its design appealed to my (then) 14-year-old edgelord sensibilities, and I never stopped liking it since. Purple's a cool color and its little fangs are cute.

Focus sash, chlorophyll, growth, Solarbeam, weather ball, sludge bomb, win (as in it's NU for a reason, but it's fun to pull a surprise OU sweep)

Does it have one???
>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
Vileplume got a few new toys this gen, not sure Victreebel did. Though the knock off buff is always nice.
>Why is it your favorite?
Not sure. I've always been a fan of it and its pre-evolutions, though I've never used one in-game. Hoping for a good mega that isn't this deviantart shit. Also was my first Pokemon X shiny.

Absolutely
>Is it good competitively?
In a lot of circumstances, yes. But even with his mega evolution, he still truly is UU.
>What is its fanbase like?
Quiet, I guess. I know Blastoise has its fans, but I never really see anybody openly vocal about him.
>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
Well I mean he's the mascot of Blue and he got a mega evolution, so he's not been treated poorly.
>Why is it your favorite?
If I've learned anything about myself from Pokemon, it's that turtles are apparently my favorite aquatic animal. I've always found myself being rather fond of the turtle/tortoise Pokemon. Because when I was making my decision between Red and Blue, I looked at Blastoise and just thought about how cool he look and imagined how awesome he'd be. So he was my first Pokemon.

Alakazam
He's pretty fine in game, no complaints
Never had much success competitively, but he works on and off
Never found another person who loves it like i do
He got a mega, he can learn a fairy move, hes got a decent movepool
in Red version, i caught an Abra when me and my brother both wanted one so bad, i raised it and took it all the way through the E4; it never evolved and i hated that, but Alakazam was always a looming amazing possibility on the horizon. I'll never want a pokemon nearly as bad as i wanted Alakazam, he did not disappoint in any other game and it will always be on my team if possible

It's got my two favourite types and it's really fucking cute. It also might also have some basis in mythology, which is nice to see.

Yes, bulky while still being able to pack a punch. Best in Ben 1 with Amnesia shenanigans, but the physical/special split also improved it
>Is it good competitively?
No. Being both a decent wall and attacker means it's mediocre at doing both, and it's hilariously outclassed by other bulky waters and swift swim sweepers
>What is its fanbase like?
Very small.
>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
Seeing how Poliwag is Tajiris favourite pokemon, I'm surprised Wrath hasn't got more love. Sure he got a small atk buff, but his movepool feels very outdated and he hasn't really gotten any of the newer toys other fightning mons have (Close Combat, for example)
>Why is it your favorite?
Just an ingenious design. I love how the swirls on his belly is his intestines, and that he can hypnotize opponents. And Poliwag and Whirl is really cute.

It's good in RU, which means that overall he's pretty shit. But at least I can use him somewhere at all and do good.

The Emboar fan club house is a haunted mansion. At least there's no barafags here.

Emboar gets some attention. Not as much as the mascots, but he seems to be the "official" gen 5 starter.

Type combination, he seems like a huge bro, I like his design and themes, was overall my best bro in gen 5 and can wreck some shit in competitive if the opponent doesn't expect it.

>Why is it your favorite?
When I played GS I wasn't big on water types so I never bothered to catch one. Since I didn't evolve a Sentret or Rattatta either, I got stuck when I made it to Olivine. I started over and chose Totodile and it was a lot more fun to play with than Cyndaquil was. Feraligatr's design quickly grew on me the more I used it. Totodile was also the first shiny I ever bred. It was in BW without using the Masuda method or the Shiny charm. I filled the PC with eggs and started hatching them. A couple boxes in I hatched a shiny female Totodile, my first bred shiny ever. The very last egg I had hatched into a shiny male Totodile too. I couldn't fucking believe it. I lost both shiny Feraligatr as well as a shiny Growlithe, shiny Elekid, shiny Roserade and shiny Samurott that I spent two months soft resetting for when my sister deleted my file on White 2

Both megas are top-tier Pokemon competitively.
Fanbase can be pretty crappy, but it's made far worse by people hating on it because muh genwunner boogeymen.
Game Freak gives this guy a lot of spotlight. Gen 6 did great things for Charizard.
It's my favorite because I like the fire-breathing dragon aesthetic, and the fact that I started my journey with one. So it's got the Pikachu-tier bro quality along with the draconic concept I enjoy overall.

He wasn't satisfied with the +40 attack boost Mega Blaziken got, he wants to crank it all the way up to 200 base attack and actually believes that's not that high only because it can't hold an item on top of it. As if having extremely powerful STAB moves and Speed Boost wasn't enough.

Outclassed by Chandelure.

No. Most middle evolutions don't have much going for them. And it won't get shadow tag.
>What is its fanbase like?
Small, I guess?
>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
They changed it's shadow tag to infiltrator. Not the best.
>Why is it your favorite?
Cute design, simple design, my favorite types, from my favorite generation, and it represents my birthmonth.

mild neglect.
>Why is it your favorite?
Muk and Meganium are basically opposites.
Muk is the embodiment of poison and pollution, with a foul stench that no one wants to be around. Meganium can heal dead/dying plants, and calms those around them with their aroma. I really love the contrast between them.

As for individually, i always felt that Muk would appreciate you more for being a friend. Meganium just seems serene and huggable.

Is one of the fastest Pokemon of all time good competitively? Fuck yeah. Taunting at the speed of light.

Brobats are pretty cool. You've usually got to be pretty laid back to not despise the Zubat line after all these years and caves.
>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
Bravest Bat and Heat Wave are beautiful. Not even Johto's awkward stat distributions could hinder the Dark Knight.
>Why is it your favorite?
It's an early-game shitmon that becomes stealth mode Batman by happiness evolution by the fourth gym, plus it can learn Fly. It's truly the most bro-worthy of all Pokemon.

Depends on the move set. Double Team, Swagger, Foul Play, and Moonlight work well enough for singles. Hp, Def, and Sp. Def EVs.

Realtively chill, except the furries

It's treated well enough, but I'd like to see it get something, maybe a few new (not shit) moves.

Favorite types are Dark and Steel. Also like the eeveeloutions. I also find it neat that it's the first dark type in the national dex.

There isn't one. I bet there are more people who actively despise it than people who like it.
>>How is it treated by big daddy Game Freak?
It was created and then ignored.

It has a cheery, upbeat personality which I find really appealing. It's also just a fun pokemon to use in game. Technician STAB Fake Out will never stop being my favorite thing.

I'm not so sure, considering they put Porygon into both Smash 64 and Melee as a stage hazard/platform, and they put P2 into Melee as a Poke Ball and a collectible trophy. Both games were released well after the DSP incident.
