>>31528295She looks like a loli, but feels like she isn't. She seems kinda cool and responsible. The fact that her ingame personality is playful, mischievous, and thirsty makes her even better.
>>31528417The field is crowded now, but Pheobe was previously *THE* premier brown girl. She's also got the short hair deal going on, and shows off enough skin to be appealing.
>>31528496Reasonable-enough looking to pull off a "girl next door" vibe. Got large amounts of characterization in the show, and did just enough aside from the standard contest crawl as a companion to make her somewhat memorable.
>>31529222She's a bit older, and has a nice body. "Thicc Wicke" is mostly just fanart. She's also super nice ingame, and pulls off the nerd archetype just enough to draw in that crowd.
>>31529225"Dude, weed lmao" aside, from what little charictarization we get she's clearly an absentminded airhead which appeals to some people. She also appeals to the dgaf crowd, and her somewhat frumpy appearance is actually attractive to some.
Also, the fact that she's so underdeveloped means that a person feels like they aren't mainstream by liking her, as well as also leaving room to headcannon in personality quirks as needed.
>>31529709Her resting bitch face, position, and somewhat standoffish opening lines makes people think she's a bitch. Combined with her reasonably (and presumably) fit body this makes her fit neatly into a number of dom archetypes.
Also, underdeveloped like Mina.
>>31529795The loli, her mouth thing is new (to Pokemon at least) and people like new. Reasonably cute.
>>31529876Reasonably powerful, has that "professional" flair, a bit older, and fits a blonde and sexy style. She's also pretty smart, making her a subs wet dream.
Her characterization in the anime both reinforced her competence, and made her a bit more reasonable.
As a personal observation, Cynthiafags generally tend to dislike mention that her hair ornaments are styled after Lucario.
