There's a custom Rotom magic wand in GameFreak's offices, that's the reason everyone's so dedicated to it.

It's there to stay because they need to shill cell phones as pokedexes so people play Pokemon go

They treat it like an object to be used instead of a rare Pokémon nowadays

Gen 8 went so overboard with it that it turned funny.

because they want to turn the dex into a companion character and rotom just happens to make sense for that . Never mind the implications of the fact that it can fucking talk

I mean, there's TV and PC but I guess it ain't exactly "appliances" that do necessary stuff.

It really should have been Porygon, Rotom was created as a very rare Pokemon, on par with legendaries, and now it's in all phones.

Yeah, but if you think they're going to bring any more attention to Porygon than necessary then you're delusional. Over two decades and they're still scared of reminding people of that incident, even though I'm sure most Pokemon fans nowadays weren't even alive when that happened.

Fuck off retard. That would be true if they didn’t give it not one but TWO evolutions over the years. Rotom is simply a less complex irl choice
