You already know that game freak is drawing up a fire type version of this to replace charizard after figuring out everyone hates it.
Lol hating charizard is terminally online nerd opinion. It’s only really overexposed if you surround yourself with Pokémon news 24/7. Normies who grew up from gens 1-3 and especially young kids still love it plenty.
>become more popular than Charizard
>GF seethes and does everything in hand to frick him over
It's honestly amazing
I barely see anyone other than fans of the XYZ anime talk about Greninja anymore
tbf it only had to stand out amongst other gen 6 mons.
but it would probably be in the top 10 regardless
Back in 2016 in a Japan only poll it was in first place. Greninja’s popularity is warranted and it has to do with several factors
>It’s design
>It’s competitively viable
>Smash Bros
>Most importantly the anime
>Back in 2016
That was 6 years ago.
And then it won again in 2020 maintaining its status worldwide.
>Greninja's popularity is warranted
>competitive
>smash
>anime
These are exactly the reasons its popularity was undeserved. It got more shilling than basically any other pokemon ever has in a singe generation, then had enough left over to bleed into gen 7's demo.
>it only had to stand out amongst other gen 6 mons
anon, it didn't only win top of it's gen but the most popular pokemon period, even more than pikachu, lucario, or charizard
no, the votes were separated by generation.
and with gen 6 having a low amount of good mons it got the most votes.
i fricking love this frog, but it probably would have not been #1 if the votes were not separated by gen.
It got the most votes over all anon.
umm
>moron
why would anyone talk about it if it's not available in the games?
Shut the frick up maggot.
>I barely see anyone other than fans of the XYZ anime talk about Greninja anymore
So the majority of fans
That's because they mythologised their childhood, being the first season Ash wasn't a scrub.
Pity the only other non-scrub in the region beat his arse really.
At least it still gets better treatment than the Johto starters.
Didn’t Typhlosion get a new form?
Yes with a rubbish ability and trash stat distribution
Typhlosion is the only Johto starter that matters.
Typhlosion was given a hisui form.
Don't forget
>only bring it back after they make a NEW shiny shillmon starter that has its ability, is SE against it, and is ONE base speed point faster
the samurai fears the frog
ninja vs samurai
>retcon its form
That's because Ash doesnt exist anymore in the SV timeline. Ash story concludes with Journey.
It's because it's an imitation of an almost-nine year old design of the anime MC, you stupid frick.
>It's because [FANFICTION]
Source your obese brown sperm leaking mutt ass
They also keep trying to bring back Protean (Cinderace and now the cat). Greninja was too good.
>gets a special ability that let's it NOT Mega Evolve on a K.O.
>gets a buff to it's priority move which helps it ensure it can resolve it's special ability
>said special ability was a free mon in the last good games, Sun and Moon
>it's a frog
>it's a ninja
Only thing I would want more than him is for a Shiny Greninja to have a peach(?) Muzzle like it's blue variant to make the NOT Mega Evolution between both models less jarring.
Also for him to not be Shiny locked and able to breed for Battle Bond.
