imma be real here

piranha plant is legitimately a better addition to smash than fire-fighting starter pokemon #48320

[the-x-button]

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

[wheel-skellington]

hes dark type because hes a heel

[the-x-button]

a what

[wheel-skellington]

in professional wrestling a heel is a wrestler acting as the villain, being rude and underhanded

in fact incineroar is called the Heel Pokemon

[trilllizard666]

badguy wrestler

think more Stone Cold or Brock Lesnar rather than John Cena

[sketchiedetails]

He’s meant to draw the ire of the audience

If he isn’t getting under your skin he’s doing a bad job

[holdonearmbar]

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.

He’s the big heel of the pokemon universe, and he’s based off of one the most popular Japanese Junior heavyweights of all time’s arch rival the Black Tiger.

[the-x-button]

this is so dumb hes still based on wrestlers

[wheel-skellington]

wrestling is very much not fighting tho

[italeteller]

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

[chaosauxilatrix-moved-deactivat]

In other words, he’s a heel in a meta sense as well.

[bogleech]

The dark type actually is thematically an alternate fighting type and both its moves and weaknesses reflect that! “fighting dirty” is culturally thought of as its own martial arts style in Japan and myriad fictional characters are based on that!

[bogleech]

See also: the fact that dark, rather than fighting type is used to represent being a sneaky, stealthy ninja!

True, many dark types don’t have a “fighting” feel to them, but look at major dark type moves: sucker punch, beat up, taunt, feint attack, fake tears, knock off, thief, even THROAT PUNCH. These aren’t attacks based on literal “darkness,” (which describes only two or three special-based options) but classic cliche’s of a martial artists with no honor. A brutal, undisciplined brawler who will sink to any low to win! Even their effects tend to just be mean rule-breaking stuff like stealing your opponent’s item or mixing up their stat boosts.

What Video Games Have Taught Me

I wanted to make a comic about some of the lessons that video games I’ve played have taught me. Making this was very nostalgic, and it sort of helped me remember why I love these games so much. Be kind, everyone ❤︎
