Zuzie posted:Zoroark and Zorua are kind of a sad case. Game Freak really wanted to recreate Lucario's popularity so they made another bipedal canine and made them super rare in Black and White. In order to actually get one of each in your game, you needed to transfer special legendaries like Celebi and Shiny Legendary Beasts from the Gen 4 games through a special method exclusively for these Pokémon and activate events with them in Black and White. I really do think that making Zoroark/Zorua event Pokemon is what killed their popularity.

Johnny Joestar posted:it's mirroring an event that actually happened in hawaii. farmers brought in mongoose to help get rid of the rat population that was booming but the rats were nocturnal and the mongoose isn't, so Reading the Alola form descriptions, I'm actually kind of impressed with how they seem to have constructed an ecology around them instead of just saying "it has something to do with magic stones from a meteor, no one knows for sure." Brick Shipment posted:I'm the same, except the other way around. Lucario always looked goofy as poo poo to me and I never understood where the cool factor was coming from, but zoroark is good. Yeah I don't get what Lucario's deal is. He looks kind of like Anubis but that doesn't explain the spikes and steel typing. Are those supposed to be the nails used to crucify Jesus? Zoroark has some flaws, like weird color distribution and a profile that was obviously designed with only certain angles in mind, but it's a really solid concept, unlike Lucario. Ka0 posted:Zoroark and Lucario are both in the deviantart furry egg group. It is very difficult for me to justify using them. I like Zorua a lot and wish Zoroark looked less like one of these sharkwolf things that furries invented. Pomplamoose fucked around with this message at 06:05 on Sep 2, 2016 |

I like Zoroak's posture because it makes it seem more like a fox waliking on two legs for some reason, but it's kind of dull otherwise. Just a collection of "dark anime" traits that don't really stand out among so many others. Lucario is similar, but I see something of an Egyptian vibe that makes me like it more.

For what it's worth, I really DIDN'T like Lucario at first, way back in the day when it was first introduced and its popularity was through the loving roof. Maybe it makes me a hipster but I thought the design was just way too loving busy back then. But it grew on me a lot at some point in Gen 5. I think Smash Bros Brawl helped with that, too. The thing about forced popularity is that you get a lot more opportunities to see the design in motion, I guess? And the way Lucario moves in Brawl and all the other side properties really helped sell the concept to me.
