The funny thing is a lot of the same people that are crapping all over Draven (and his voters) being a personality-less man from a group of over 100 champions from a game with an obnoxiously large user base are voting for a personality-less animal from a group of over 500 quasi-animals from a game with an obnoxiously large user base.

Draven is 10 times the character of almost any Pokemon.

I would say Squirtle is beasting, but it's still 65% on Zidane so I don't know.

I think Dante is just a stinker

No, Draven was a rally. Whatever

This is Squirtle actually being a lot more popular than Dante.

I can pull a random ugly Pokemon from every generation you want and there will be more to say about it than any stupid champion from LoL

To be fair, Squirtle, Pikachu and Charizard are all as much anime proxies as RBY proxies. And they definitely have personalities in the anime.

You can throw in Mewtwo as well. His movie was a pretty big deal.

I'm not a fan of the Pokemon games, but I enjoyed the anime and like many of the originals' designs. Broadly, the ones I most like do well (Pikachu, Charizard, Mewtwo and now Squirtle) so I quite enjoy their rise to power.

It's not really even the Pokemon thing... it's the confirmation that a huge majority of people are so RBY biased that any other Pokemon (i.e. Lugia) is much, much weaker. Sucks to know that is true for the voters in general, not just this board.

Seriously what an amazing contest for Pokemon. Squirtle beating Dante, Mewtwo beating Vincent/Phoenix, Blue beating Fox. Still big matches to come with Charizard and Pikachu as well but at the moment Pokemon seem to be clutching everything.
#91 | Kibago | Posted 8/25/2013 9:16:54 AM | message detail
Bulbasaur people just like him/want to finish the set, right? there's no way he's stronger than Charizard or Squirtle (and I'd be stunned if he beat Pikachu.)

#92 | ChenKenichiFan | Posted 8/25/2013 9:16:59 AM | message detail
I'm hoping this is the match that finally gets people off the baseless Dante support train. Just because he can beat Laharl-like fodder worse than the Pokemon doesn't mean he'll beat the Pokemon. Dante is like the biggest fodder-crusher ever, but the ONLY time he's done it against the big boys was when he beat Master Chief in 2008, and Chief was dealing with the biggest come-down (for a legit entrant) in contest history that year.

Just because after that last match I really do want to see what Crono does against Cloud.

Anyone still doubt Mewtwo being the chance to stop Draven?
This is Squirtle with no rally beating the near-elite Dante and making him look like a joke
Just imagine Mewtwo with a internet-wide rally and be afraid

No. This is beating Dante.

Holding Ryu to like 17% on you directly is making someone look like a joke.
