Idk about you guys, but I actually do like Charizard. He was one of the first dragon designs (despite not being dragon-type, he's a fire-breathing lizard. In my book, that's a fucking dragon) and he was my favorite as a kid. A good bit of it is trying to get that nostalgia, though. Because nowadays Charizard is starting to look gay as shit. They're fucking up his design in the games. A standing model would've looked so much better in the 3D model, but we never got a badass flying sprite in Gens I-V.
Seriously, he'd have looked much better in those gens if his sprite had been in a pose like in that promo of Gold sighting the Shiny Charizard in the forest. Gen IV's sprite was alright, though.
TL;DR - please don't blame us all for the weird fags who think Charizard is ebin. He's alright, and I wish he were more usable. The design has a lot of wasted potential so far.
