Pokemon hot takes

I have a few hot takes that may or may not have cause an uproar.

1 flagon is overrated and doesn’t need a mega. Idk I just thought other dragon types were cooler. And the design is not appealing to me.



2 Scarlet has worse paradox forms than violet. I think the scarlet paradoxes are ugly, (except for great tusk and koridon) and the robot designs are just cooler to me.


3 Dome fossil > Helix fossil


ALMIGHTY DOME

    Greninja is EXTREMELY overrated and everyone pretends it's not. I've seen people hate on Charizard for the attention it gets and then say Greninja is one of their favourites like hypocrites despite the difference in attention given between it and the other Kalos starters being greater than the difference in attention Charizard and the other Kanto starters get.

    And you will say that Delphox is underrated, won't you?

    Yes. I hope it and Chesnaught get Megas in Z-A, and at least equal focus to whatever amount Greninja gets in that game. That second part is unfortunately not very likely though, even if they get Megas.

    Here's my hot takes. N had a point, all eeveelutions are not that great except for eevee and sylveon, and gen 6 starters were not that good.

    The worst of the gen 6 starters is in my opinion Chespin. It's cute but the evolutions are just ugly. I don't like Fennikin for the same reason. And the fans also ruined it for me. Froakie is at least somewhat cool. It just gets too much love. So that's why I don't really like the kalos starters. But thats just my opinion.
