I also think Lucario is the Shadow the Hedgehog of Pokémon.

Why? He's design isn't even edgy. He's just a dog thing with Hadokens.

He is literally edgy, because he is covered in spikes.

It shows up in a lot of things and it's not Pikachu or Meowth. Thus, it's oversaturated and sucks and is bad.

Lucario is a cool laser shooting Anubis that also beats people with energy bones and if anyone doesn't like that then I don't want them to be my friend. :colbert:

I don't even like Luacrio but it's nothing like Shadow the Hedgehog. At worst, it's just really bland and inoffensive.

Whimsicott, a cotton ball/sheep pokemon that hit's like a truck and is super fast AND gets prankster so you can run it as a SP. Attacker or a set up/harasser or even just a counter set-up pokemon because Prankster Taunt outspeeds other pranksters when you're that fast.

It's my favorite.

Lucario is literallly Shadow the Hedgehog and if it were not for people complaining about the chandelier pokémon you wouldn´t give a gently caress about it, even if it´s an okay design.

nah they're all losers except for generation one because it's the best there were never any bad designs in generation one

Which are you referring to
1. Voltorb
2. Electrode
3. Gastly
4. Koffing

e: I guess this is kind of unfair, Gastly, Koffing and Electrode all seem pretty hype instead of angry.

Lucario is a bad attempt at a Mewtwo for the newest generation, and he´s been pushed pretty hard as the cool, dark (literally) pokémon.

He evolves with high friendship, what the gently caress?!

If you were saying this about Mega Lucario I could see this but all I've got on Lucario is that it sees aura and that's basically it.

It's way less loving dark compared to how Chanderlure starts off as a candle that drains the life energy out of pokemon + people to fuel its fire. And then it moves onto spirits when it evolves. Or just lurks outside of hospitals. Waiting.

Fighting/Steel. He's a noble pup that shoots lasers and sees auras. He's cool.

Pangoro is the only Dark/Fighting we have, IIRC, and he's cool too.
