>>47016362Yeah, sorry bro but you are never going to change your mind about this Pokemon. You are just eternally stuck in a dimension where you can't perceive things in other ways other than your own rigid standards and understanding of things. I too, like you and many others, used to give this line so much shit due to precisely what you explain, but I learned to let go of that.
I think it's a nice little design. Nothing more. Nothing less. Getting blue to the face screaming about what it$ initial manifesto was in terms of a design for a franchise (Which may I remind you is D&D based and not generic zoo animal based like most normalfags seem to make it out to be officially in the grand conciousness of it all) is quite frankly tiresome and only appeals to a status quo. Now I'm not saying the design is perfect, but I don't think it deserves the sheer amount of ire it has garnered over the years either. I guess being pure Ice type also dampens its appeal a bit because, well, Ice is a horrendously bad type with very little good about it besides select areas of offense, which is rendered moot by how you'd almost always rather have Ice moves for non STAB coverage on other types other than Ice itself given how shit it is defensively and how often GF typecasts its stat spread to be extremely slow and defensive. This ice cream fuck at least has Snow Warning now to spam Blizzards with its Sp Attack but... Yeah.
You are never going to like this Pokémon, so stop trying to convince yourself otherwise or preaching to the choir. It is time to move on my man.
