I really hate the vaporeon copypasta. It's unfunny, overused to the extreme, and now that's all everyone thinks about when they see vaporeon mentioned. There's literally nothing weird about its design whatsoever, it's a cute pokemon, and now because of this stupid copypasta, it gets sexualized a ton, and you can't even mention vaporeon without people referencing it and trying to sexualize it. It really pisses me off.

Hey g- sounds of violence

The OG gen I-V timeline needs to be revisited. And also destroyed. Possibly in the same outing.

I find the vaporeon copypasta to be funny. In fact I personally find the fact that rule 34 affects pokemon at all to be hilarious.

It's really annoying, though, when it's made it nigh-impossible to openly like Vaporeon in a completely innocent context without at least one unfunny twat swooping in with the dang copypasta and turning the whole conversation into that.

As someone whose favorite Eeveelution is in fact Vaporeon, I feel that pain.

Be glad of that.

And it has affected things from the very start, considering that's the reason I know that safe search in Google is crap.

Vaporeon copypasta? Dare I even ask what that is?

 

[Sheep40]

Can we stop talking about the vaporeon copypasta already?

The Alola games try so hard to be sad it's cringe.

May I remind you that zoophilia is a crime ?

The Alola games in general are kind of cringe (And bad). The moment you need outward stat boosts from before a battle even begins to pose a 'challenge', instead of relying on other factors, you're genuinely a lost cause.

Well I was talking about some parts of the story and some side quests but that statement about the battles is very true (Z-Moves are also very easy to counter).

There are better ways to do pokemon dark. The fans, however, come up with cringier ways than Nintendo. Also, dark and realistic are not the same thing. Alola didn't do realistic, it just did dark. Unova did pokemon realistic.

Considering there's a romhack where Hoopa is the devil and killed Arceus (among other things)... I'll take Nintendo, thanks. And that's not counting what the hacker did to Benga...

I don't think the fans will ever do something as cringe as the scene in the cemetery with the old lady talking about her dead husband with that stupid violin music in the background, that was so ridiculous.

Everywhere you go in Alola you will encounter random npcs talking about how X person died tragically. What even is the point ? One time is enough.

The worst thing is the cutscene where Mohn goes to the Aether Island and meets his family. You always see people talking about how much they cried seeing this and I just don't understand, this scene is just so badly done : it's devoid of any emotion and the characters reactions are awfully unrealistic.

Oh yeah and there's also that same stupid violin music playing.

 

[prog rocker]

Believe me, fans have done way worse... Aside from the whole betrayal fanfic genre, romhacks that try to be dark often end up badly, like Dark Rising, which was the hack I mentioned.

There's also Pokémon Snakewood, which starts creepy... and then it backtracks and turns into a weird parody? You know there are big problems when you make your own author avatar literally god. Or the random Bo-bobo references. Or shitting in the concept of Pokémon when battling against a random T-Fanger (did I mention it was also a crossover?).

 

[Beer&Nyquil]

I think the idea of Pokémon being dark to begin with is pretty flawed haha

 

[Sheep40]

Yep. You can do it more realistic, more serious, but dark? Heck no.

Also, I hate romhacks and I think nintendo is right for getting pissy over them. Especially the dark ones. I hope GF mocks them one day.

Also, does anyone else absolutely loathe the creepypastas? They're just damn stupid, beyond stupid actually, and so bizarre I don't even know who the target audience is supposed to be?

 

[prog rocker]

I hope GF mocks them one day.

Considering how base breaking (to put it kindly) Game Freak is... This would be a pretty bad move. Making fun of your own fans is never a good idea.

 

[RK9]

Honestly, I don't even find 'people dying by natural cause/old age' dark at all. It's a natural part of life, what's dark about it.

Oh god, the Mohn thing. I had to laugh so hard at that. It was so bad.
