>>52409942Charizard didn't ruin this franchise, TPC not knowing how to shill a pokemon ruined this franchise.
TPC wanted to sabotage Zoroark (after shilling it) just to shill Lucario again in Gen 6, and it worked so well that they sabotaged other pokemon to make others look good, and Charizard was the one that gained the most from this dirty strategy, so Lucario is more to blame than Charizard.
That's why people get upset when Charizard gets everything and that doesn't happen with popular species like Omnimon/Omegamon, Blue Eyes White Dragon and Mario's main characters.
