Someone at gamefreak must really hate Zoroark

>>make a 10/10 design
Based Zoroark enjoyer, i love BW but im still mad about this too

>>57957603
The only time you see it in BW is in your fight with N. And you will kill it in one hit so you will only see it for 1 second when it dies.

I forgot to add:
>never made it to smash bros due to bad timing
>too late for brawl
>too early for 4

>>57957618
im glad it's playable in unite at least

>>57957618
I remember when everyone was convinced that Zoroark would replace Lucario in Smash. Funny how that turned out

>give it an ability that transforms it into another pokemon
>add a mechanic in competitive that nullifies this ability

Also
>make it without any personality in its own movie and spend it on its pre-evolution

>>57957596 (OP)
All it took to be popular is to be humanoid don't lie to yourself

>>57957679
If it was so popular why did it get a replacement and if being humanoid is so helpful to popularity, why is are most beloved CHARIZARD, Pikachu, and Eevee?

>>57957679
It isnt very popular by how much it was shilled in early gen 5

>>57957634
>add a mechanic in competitive that nullifies this ability
People say that but knowing a Zoroark is on the team instantly adds variables you have to account for when going for weaknesses or knowing what's safe to set up on. And then there's the mean 50/50 you can force with Shedinja on the same team.

She was just some lady living in the forest and now she's in my living dex, box 4. Is that weird?

>>57957679
If you get a regional variant the base form wasn’t popular enough.
