Why did Sudowoodo fail to get as popular as Snorlax?

Sudowoodo being much weaker than Snorlax is surely one of reasons.
Also, only Snorlax is from KANTOOOOOOOOO

No johtomons really took off except Lugia - as anon mentioned the anime was too late, it got shitty and pokemania was over

My memory of the weird shaking tree is a lot more vivid of the snorlax tiles though

Snorlax
>KANTOOOO Privilege so it gets 10x the amount of exposure as the average Pokémon
>Blesses with broken stats
>Ash owned an extremely powerful one that appeared a lot in the anime
Sudowoodo
>Johto-disrespect, so it gets 10xLESS exposure than the average Pokemon (though the little it got was unironically more than the fuck-all the Gen 2 starters got for years which just shows how much contempt TPC had for Johto and Johtofans)
>Given far lower stats than Snorlax despite being Snorlax's counterpart
>Ash never owned one, and Brock's didn't really do much and spent much of its time as a useless baby

She likely meant in terms of anime/merchandise/pokemania shilling, in which I'd argue Togepi, Pikablu, Entei and maybe Tyrannitar won

Because Snorlax was ALSO a roadblock in Gen 2, and one of the best Pokemon in the game. He's so iconic!

Snorlax gets longer build up so when you finally catch it, most of us immediately puts it on our team
Everyone boxes Sudowoodo

Because there are two Snorlax but just one Sudowoodo, making lots of kids kill the Sudowoodo thinking another one would be coming up.

I've been thinking that I gotta get off this board or something so I can go back to just enjoying my favorite mons/games without having the deal with the autistic dick waving contests because I get sucked into them too much.
But also this board is the only place I see specific Pokemon getting threads dedicated to them beyond their initial reveal so it's hard to drop

Possibly. If it was strong, more people would have been more likely to actually use it after catching it if it was as much of a beast as Snorlax. As it stands, it's purely reliant on its gimmick of trying to trick someone unaware into using a Fire move on a tree.

I like Sudowoodo nowadays because it's one of the best Rock Head users, getting Wood Hammer, Head Smash, and Double Edge, plus STAB Rollout with Defense Curl buff. You can get a Bonsly in SV before even reaching Mesagoza, and since Bonsly learns Mimic at level 16 and Sudowoodo learns both Stone Edge, Hammer Arm, and Wood Hammer from remembering you can really quickly get a stupidly strong physical attacker really early.

I’ve almost never seen anything with Tyranitar or entei. Most of the marketing went to the worthless babymons and GENWUN.
