>>36105380A factor, actually. But only part of it, compared to /vp/'s hatred of anything new and nostalgia boner, and Incineroar having actual game and anime prominence so people can actually look back and go 'well it wasn't so bad after all/pretty cool actually' watching that stuff with the Gen 7 starterwar memories fading by that point.
>>36105400I definitely appreciate you actually see what I'm trying to say, whatever else - thank you. I do think that even if the proportions aren't flawless, people are homing in on Incineroar's way more than other mons both this gen and earlier ones they give a pass on, throwing in it does actually look nicer in the anime (I'd say even if you don't like it still it really does vs the 3D model), and by this point, MUH BIPEDAL feels more legitimate than MUH PROPORTIONS as a reason to complain.
>>36105420Long snout ending in a clown nose, skinny-ass upper arms and skinny-ass long neck even by Pokemon design standards, slender enough body which rolls with the human accessories to fulfill the fursuiter meme vs the blubber-muscle bodies seals usualy have. I personally don't mind or care on the seal, but I've seen this bandied about enough myself. But you are deluding yourself if you assume EVERYONE, or even a majority, loves the seal.
>>36105434Decidueye is a nerd pokemon, as seen by its anime trainer and its easily-scared personality. People love Greninja, people don't like Chesnaught.
