>>48341800People still get annoyed by eevee, but it's also just eevee, it cute, rare, has a massive evolution wheel to choose from, so it makes sense that the evolution pokemon would be mascot like, it proudly shows off that aspect.
Charizard is a part of a trio and only charizard getting this special treatment feels really shitty, like it was the the first to get 2 mega's, did not get cut from the dex and became the champions ace despite making no thematic sense, appears in alola despite not being in the dex.
Charizard feels more shoe horned in.
I expect pikachu to be in every game so I'm numb to it, Eevee got a Z move, a Obese form, and Let's go pikachu and eevee which, they needed a pokemon that would fit with pikachu and the rival used Eevee in yellow so it kind of makes sense.
I find it easier to forget eevee exists then charizard.
Overall the whole trio should get respect.
