Oh, and let me add this:
– Synchro is not replacing Mega Evolution–that’s a ridiculous assumption.
– Z-Moves are there to diversify gameplay. With multiplayer being as strategic as it is, there’s nothing wrong with that. And it’s definitely not “confused”.
– Pokémon is still wrecking house in terms of sales, and I don’t see why you’d think otherwise.
– Ash-Greninja IS popular. It’s why Greninja won the poll. And no, its loss to Charizard doesn’t change that.

I don’t think GameFreak are the confused ones here.

“It’s fake because people want it” makes no sense. People wanted Fire/Poison; in comes Salandit, also leaked by typing before its reveal.

Leaving out explicit details about Rockruff doesn’t cement shit, and it’s not even true. They say its evolution depends on the time of day, and the same has been suggested for the final starter forms by an earlier, credible source.

The Fire-type pig is a Totem Pokémon. Nothing has been said about it belonging to the Trial Captain.

Also Rotom is Pulseman from the Genesis game. Like, goddamn that’s not even subtle.

Mega Evolution was explained in the games, and you KNOW it was.

Yo-Kai Watch is not a Pokémon killer, either. Stop deluding yourself.

That’s like, the number 1 most “I really really want this” pokemon.

Not to mention, Rockruff having no connection to the starters like he’s said to have pretty much cements it as fake.

Then there’s the matter of the Fire-type Leader using a lava pig. His info page already says he has a trusty Marowak, which is a Fire-type now.

Also that weird weasel thing is Big the Cat and that weasel from Sonic for Game Gear. Like, goddamn that’s not even subtle.

Does this guy just make a living off of picking fights with other Poketubers?

Yes, everything about MatPat is infuriating but his voice is up there.

who? *googles* oh that theory guy, i have him annoying in a different way than his voice……eh

His voice is nowhere near as bad as MatPat’s, and at least Paul admits his voice might be grating to some.
