i think landorus is the perfect mascot for compfags because it's such an egregiously shit design with no redeeming qualities, and yet they fucking worship it

True lol, I just groan now seeing Landorus-T because it’s the lamest of the Therian formes (even more than the turtle) and it’s used so much I physically cringe at it now

Dracovish had actual popularity with ranking decently on the POTY poll before the anime featured it
>b-b-but muh comp
Yeah no, Ferrothorn, Landorous, and Toxapex didn't show up at all on the POTY and they'd been to compfag picks for far longer than it had

Toxapex is cool but I honestly wish that Smogon had just banned the ability Regenerator. They do plenty of other complex bans (banning shadow tag, banning arena trap) so don't give me that bullshit.
Regenerator is just as "uncompetitive" as trapping abilities

Agreed.What a confusing mess.
>>53800478
That is because trapping abilities are way more broken than Regenerator.You don't see Mareanie or Slowpoke being used above PU,but Diglett was used even in OU.

>>53798924
How dare you diss on Peliper, the other two I understand though

If I have to point at a group of Pokémon I don't understand the appeal other than competitive it would be the Tapus, I like Lele design wise but if they lost their terrain abilities they wouldn't be used at all

Pelipper is such a bottom tier design that it baffles me that anybody could like it. It's only used because some fucking retard at gamefreak saw kyogres ability and thought "oh yeah the flying toilet should get it"

It doesn't need hair but at least give it horns/an ice crest or something. Even Tyranitar from your precious Gen 2 had cool head spikes

hey dracovish is alright, the design is a hilarious exaggeration of inaccurate british fossil recreations and just generally looks really goofy
i do agree with you on gholdengo, though, i fucking hate that thing. it literally is just the mascot of corporate greed

I hate Goldengo's design and completely disagree with that sentiment. It was clearly made to be a friendly mascot type and it seems to have modestly succeeded at that. On top of people wanting to fuck it.

Dracovish is based and funny.

You niggers saying Dracovish are completely delusional. The thread is
>Pokemon no one would care about
Dracovish has people fervently discuss its design and its design alone independent of its competitive viability. It's intentionally (and literally) divisive so you're going to have people on both sides who love and hate it with very little in between. You faggots are only mentioning it here precisely because you hate it.

dracovish (as well as the other fossils) reminds me a lot of the chimeras from mother 3
it's the exact same unholy combination of wildly different creatures that looks to be barely functioning that i fucking adore

Fish Pokemon are notorious for being widely treated with indifference. While the thread's premise will never be 100% accurate, I am fairly confident no one would really care about Dondozo, even with its funny doubles gimmick, if it wasn't actually really good. You'd just get people asking why it wasn't a Whiscash evo, and Whiscash is already a Pokemon few people give a shit about. Yes it technically has anthropomorphized qualities to make it more memorable, and those qualities are actually pretty well integrated into the design without making it a jobmon, but it probably wouldn't be enough.

Dracovish wins additional points for me over the other Galar fossils for a couple of reasons
>Its face looks like it could be cute or a legitimately dangerous and unpredictable animal
>The splash of red on the head is a nice use of the dragon part's color scheme
>It is absolutely the most fucked up looking one of the bunch. Arctovish is hysterical, but at a glance it actually looks correct
>Design's fucked up nature works without animation, something I think Arctozolt and Arctovish need. Dracozolt looks like such a happy guy that you might not understand it's supposed to be messed up, even if you recognized the design looks odd. Dracovish simply cannot be mistake for anything other than a deliberate abomination

Gholdengo is decently popular completely divorced from it's comp viablitiy. If being good in OU made people want to fuck you Landorous would have a NSFW image count surpassing Gardevoir and Lopnny combined.
