Guys and Pokemon

[Artemis]

What do you think of the idea of guys owning, liking and training girly-like pokemon?


I mean do you even care about it, does it even matter, or is it simply just weird?
For instance, I'm a guy and I like Beautifly and Delcatty...is something wrong with that?

 

[Tokin]

it hurts no one, so I can tell you right off there's nothing wrong with that, I have met people who desire pokemon in such a passionate and romantic way, it is quite a surprise, and to tell you the truth, I see no wrongs with that either, it's your choice, you decide whether it's all right with you or not^^

 

[VanillaThunderbolt]

Not at all.
Milotic is the pinnacle of "girly-like" Pokemon to me, because of it basically owning Beauty Contests by existing. [Admitted, that's a stereotype that beauty contests are for women].
Still, a lot of guys I know use Milotic because of how nice it is in battle.
I was always more of a Buterfree guy myself, and was a fan of Delcatty up until that Quartz hack where Delcatty's palletes were used to make what was supposed to be the ugliest Pokemon ever D=
[Curse you irony...]

You and I talk a lot and you know that I train mostly feminine pokemon(but I can kick anyones but) so you know how I feel. Some just appreciate the beauty and grace certain pokemon give off and thats okay. It doesnt make you gay or anything if thats what you are asking.

 

[ANARCHit3cht]

It doesn't matter. That is sorta like stereotyping. (E.G. Guys are gay/weird because they wear pink.) Pfft no

 

[VanillaThunderbolt]

Well put HazaDivo.
I always liked making cute teams with deceitfully powerful attacks.
You know, Pikachu holding Light Ball with Volt Tackle kinda things?
Kill 'em with cuteness man.

I wouldn't care, all they are is Pokemon.

I'm so down for training beautiful pokemon in contests. A lot of people would consider my favorite pokemon to be a bit girl favored but since I like the shiny form...it's a bit different because green is a bit more manlier than pink. But yeah graceful, primly, beautiful pokemon tickle my fancy. I mean I have a plusle who I adore and she has the most ribbons out of all my pokemon so I don't really care about who likes it, as long as I'm cool with it. And Haza anyone who appreciates beauty and grace in pokemon is a friend of mine :D

 

[Capt. Couch]

Nah, nothing wrong with that.

I've known that people classify Pokémon in many different ways, but I've never really been told a Pokémon was "girly." All that ever seemed to matter to my friends and me was if your team could beat the crap out of your adversaries. I remember back in the old-school days when people envied you because you had a Butterfree (even though it was easy enough to get anyway).

And very well said, HazaDivo.

It's just got do with personal prefernce. I love Gardevoir because of her awesomeness, not for anything else. There's nothing wrong with liking a girly-like pokemon. It's like asking whther liking the pink is a problem (which it isn't) or if a girl liking boy-like pokemon is healthy? It's just personal preference.

 

[VanillaThunderbolt]

Quick question... in the poll, the first two options.
Is there really a difference?

 

[~Kavin~]

I'm thinking the last one is a neutral vote as the first one is a no it's not a problem

 

[Spinor]

I really don't think that would be wierd. That's the exact same thing as a female trainer owning macho Pokemon. It's not strange, it's just their preference.

Plus, ever since Jigglypuff came along, "Girl Power" was waaay overwritten.

 

[Inferno1]

One of my favorite pokemon is Delcatty I do not think it is a big deal

 

[Ninja Caterpie]

There's no big deal. It's just like telling Gamefreak that "Black Belts are not manly because they train Meditite and Medicham which are feminine-looking." It doesn't make a different what you do. This reminds me of a guy at fanfiction a couple of weeks ago thinking he was pathetic and sappy for liking romance stories. I loled.

Anyway, it makes no difference at all what Pokemon you like. I like Magikarp, does that make me weak? Yes No, it doesn't. Just a coincidence I'm weak. :\

I love Gardevoir because of her awesomeness, not for anything else.

I have a male Gardevoir. >.< Gardevoir actually has 50/50 chance to be male!

Okay I wont lie. I named my male Gardevoir DragQueen because of the way it looked being male! lol.

 

[moments.]

There is nothing at all wrong with it!
If you like the Pokemon, you use it. End of story!
I myself have trained feminine Pokemon for in game and for competitive battling and I don't care. I like the Pokemon because of what it is, not because it is 'girly'.

 

[♣Gawain♣]

If you're a dedicated trainer, no matter what kind of pokemon it is(male of female) you still use it. I own Cresselia, Latias, Frosslass, Gradevior and Mismagius(which is mostly feminine), any problems with that?

 

[moments.]

No problems at all!
I think that anyone who trains a party of all masculine Pokemon simply because they are rough and tough are quite foolish..

 

[Callandor]

I never really thought about it before. To tell you the truth, I just train pokemon that I like. And currently my three favriots are, in this order, Vulpix, Gardivour(?), and Mawille. And I think those could be considered "girly". So I say no, nothing wierd about that.
