I don't get the Popplio hype.
Seriously, why do so many people like this thing?
They say it's cute, but I think it looks ugly, unnatural and absurd (How can you take this guy seriously with a nose like that?) It's evolution doesn't help it at all. It just looks like a more feminine version of Popplio. I can't even remember it's name! Meanwhile, Litten, my starter of choice, actually looks cute, has a nice, fluent design, and it's evolution, Torracat, is (in my opinion) the best designed second-stage starter. Any Popplio lovers mind clearing things up for me? Because I just can't see why Popplio has a bigger following than the two other, better designed starters. |
Well how about this. I think Litten has the worst design and Popplio has the best design. How does that make you feel?
Different strokes for different folks. |
ever heard of opinions?
|
When the starters were first revealed I really disliked Popplio. But I must say that it grew on me over time and I most admit it's of my fav starters now, especially after Ive seen its evolution <3
|
Yes because everyone like the same thing in the world as you.
Because your opinion is the fact and everyone else can't have their opinions. And I love Popplio. Thanks. K. |

Also, reminder that people having different opinions is a thing. What you might find "ugly" other people find cute (including myself, and this is coming from a Litten fan). |
Are you kidding me?...
Everyone I talk to either doesn't care for Popplio or just doesn't like the look of it. And don't get me started on Brionne, I have heard so many compliments about it's design being "too girly". It's ridiculous really. Honestly, it's a matter of opinion really. We all have our preferences. For example, I despise the look of Chesnaught with a passion. I think it looks terrible and that it's head is too small for it's body, but I know it has a special place in my brother's heart, like many other people. So really, I can only rag on the thing so much. We all come from different backgrounds, so we all are bound to like certain things( as well as dislike certain things in general). Just because you don't like it doesn't mean other people can't. |
I'm going to also go ahead and say that I don't really see that much "hype". Opinions seem to be split pretty evenly all three ways. It definitely isn't the most popular, and if it is then it can't be by that much. "More popular than I think it deserves to be" does not equal "most popular". Personally, I'm pretty neutral about Popplio itself, but Brionne is absolutely adorable. It just looks so happy and cheerful :) So I'll most likely be choosing Popplio as my starter, unless one of the third-stage starters shifts my opinion.

Popplio being the most hyped starter? In what reality? :c
|
I don't understand this.
Popplio is my fave of the three starters, and has been from the get-go, and Brionne only added to my love of it, along with that leaked final evolution. I get not everyone likes the feminine direction it's taking, but then again that was what the Fennekin line copped last generation. Like the others said, opinions are opinions. |

It's not my cup of tea, but it doesn't bother me if other folks like it. With over 700 to choose from, everyone can find something to like.

I like Litten the most, however I think this is the first time that all three starters have been good in generations.
That being said, Popplio is cute and silly. Performer circus seal is a really fun concept! I like that it evolves really feminine because why the hell not. I mean you can call the clown nose unnatural but this is far from the first time Pokemon have been "unnatural". Tbh Rowlet has the biggest following of them all. |
So, Popplio is not the most popular starter as far as which starter people are choosing. However, people who do like the popplio family, LOVE the popplio family more than I'd say people who are going for Litten and Rowlet.
This is my indisputable reason for loving Popplio: Spoiler:
The popplio line is not only my favorite starter line, it is my favorite pokemon line ever. Litten and Rowlet fans do not seem on the whole to be quite as enthusiastic. Though, I have a special place in my heart for the Rowlet line. |
Popplio was the best designed starter of the three until they revealed their evolutions
|
popplio is really cute there isnt much else to it, pal
|
its an ugly ass pokemon, but if it has dry skin or water absorb im all over that poke.

It is called an opinion. If you don't understand that, then don't try to understand the world because your will fail.
If you honestly believe people have to like the same stuff you like, then you need to move on. If you honestly think it is one of the worst designs, you are extremely wrong, but then again, that is your opinion. Litten is still the worse to me. It just looked terrible compared to the other two, it wasn't until Torrocat was reveled like I started liking it more. |
Popplio hype? What Popplio hype? When the starters were first revealed, it was the least-liked starter (and still is today when Brionne was dead last in a poll from Pokémon's twitter account).

(That pic you posted is adorable, BTW.) |
Poppilo itself was a good Pokémon, before its evolution was released I never understood the hate it got. But as soon as Brionne was revealed, I wasn't really pleased with its design, compared to the other two at least. Don't get me wrong, the Pokémon is far from ugly, in fact I find it very beautiful and quite cute. But that is probably the reason I dislike it. Personally I've never really liked Pokémon that looked overly feminine or masculine e.g Gardevior is a pretty good Pokémon overall but I've never found it aesthetically pleasing. If the Pokémon looked more androgynous I would have probably liked it better. It's a shame really, since the water starters were always my favourite. But who knows, it might be good competitively and people might learn to overlook it's appearance.

It's just opinions at the end of the day OP. Some people like Litten the most, some like Rowlet the most, some like Popplio the most. |
What's to dislike? It's a playful seal that does dazzling bubble slapping tricks to fight back? That's awesome! Typical fun package.
Although, I love my static baby owl more because.. Rowlet is cute, and when it stop giving you the death stare Rowlet actual reactions are just the most adorable thing ever! <3 |
Yeah, popplio isn't that popular. I think it's just that people who like popplio the most show it more?
But everyone is entitled to their opinion, I don't see how litten is that cute. |
