imma be real here
piranha plant is legitimately a better addition to smash than fire-fighting starter pokemon #48320
i have just been informed that incineroar, the fucking pokemon thats based on wrestlers, knows a bunch of wrestling and fighting attacks, looks like this
and is constantly seen in wrestling ring
is not fire-fighting, but fire-dark
hes dark type because hes a heel
a what
in professional wrestling a heel is a wrestler acting as the villain, being rude and underhanded
in fact incineroar is called the Heel Pokemon
badguy wrestler
think more Stone Cold or Brock Lesnar rather than John Cena
Heās meant to draw the ire of the audience
If he isnāt getting under your skin heās doing a bad job
Dark is Evil in Japan, therefore he is a Fire Evil type.
Also you could go further into wrestling terminalogy and say that the heel usually gets the heat of the babyface and then the babyface makes a comeback.
Heās the big heel of the pokemon universe, and heās based off of one the most popular Japanese Junior heavyweights of all timeās arch rival the Black Tiger.
this is so dumb hes still based on wrestlers
wrestling is very much not fighting tho
If you wanna go really meta, the whole pokemon community was so done with fire/fighting types, especially after getting a break in the form of Braixen, that seeing Incineroar made everybody go apeshit And then he was revealed to be a dark type instead of fighting He was designed to make you mad from day 1
In other words, heās a heel in a meta sense as well.
Good to know my boy Incineroar is still working jabroni marks into shoots three years after his debut. I donāt think anyoneās held this much heat in a long time.Ā
