>>37336251As weird as it sounds, I still really love dragonair but I grew up as the fighting kid in middle school and some of high school to the point they legit had a segregated class for the kids who fight and there I might my lifelong best friend who is half black and half Hawaiian after awhile grew some damn fantastic warrior tier dreadlocks and we still to this day do stuff like play pokemon across wifi when not in the same state.
When Kommo-o was revealed with the dreadlocked look, a fighting type on it, and being basically themed after an island warrior dragon it jumped up pretty fast for me even if in practice the mon is kind of an overdesigned mess and not the greatest for comp. I did name it Cole in his honor though.
