>>47294324Because it's always Charizard.
In X and Y, out of the original Kanto starters, only Charizard got 2 megas
In the Black and White anime, only Charizard came back to win battles with Ash
In Pokemon Origins, only Red's Charizard could Mega Evolve and take down Mewtwo
In the X and Y anime, only Alain's Mega Charizard could defeat Ash Greninja despite the type advantage
In Sun and Moon, Charizard got to be the main Ride Pokemon
In Sword and Shield, a brand new region, Charizard, from Kanto, is the unbeatable champion Leon's ace, who everyone can't shut the fuck up about, and is also the face of Gigantamax forms
In Pokemon Twilight Wings, Leon and his Charizard are focused on heavily and praised and fawned over constantly
And now, once again, Charizard is given a starring role in a short film where it's completely fucking unnecessary. You want to know another Kanto fire type who would've been a good choice to be cast as a big old dog? Fucking Arcanine, but no, he's not CHARIZARD, CHARIZARD is SO COOL, we already used CHARIZARD for the last set of shorts we did but CHARIZARD is just SOOO CHARIZARD that we should show everyone how cool CHARIZARD is AGAIN!
Fuck anyone who defends this stagnant bullshit, there are nearly a thousand fucking pokemon and they can't stop shoving this one in my fucking face
