Something something fair use something something

[Na-midx]

“Now, don’t get me wrong. I love black shinies. Some of my closest shinies are black”

[lasercraft]

Hot Take: Object Mons are NOT lazy, they're actually really creative and I'm tired of people treating them like they aren't. Living ice cream cones and haunted tea cups are way more interesting than yet another bird, dog, or rat Pokemon.

[jmurray]

Honestly I would argue that not having XP share actually guides you to overleveling your starter and letting your other members rot in the back

[teapillarVA]

I've never been bothered by npcs not having teams of 6. I mean, they live in this world of monsters with massive powers. Could we as humans realistically all care for 6 huge magical pets at once? I have respect for people who know their limits with pets.

[TheStickCollector]

I guess my hot take is that Raichu should be more featured prevalently, like how pikachu is. Can't just be for people in Ash's way

[jgr]

Quick Ball + 9 Ultra Balls + Timer Ball.

[ColeLector]

Not sure if it’s a hot take, but I always hated how the future paradox forms started with “iron” when the past forms had very different names, especially since there’s so many different types of metals. Imagine names like Cobalt Crown, Titanium Valiant, Steel Treads, they could’ve had insanely cool names but nope, just iron.

[falconfyre]

Hot take of mine is that meowscarada wouldn't have been hated as much if the internet didn't make such a big deal on the cat staying on four legs

[Zoroark_Master]

Saying pikachu is an overrated Pokémon is like saying Link is an overrated Zelda character

Charizard isn’t overrated, it would be more that he’s overexposed by TPC

[Rexred]

Hot take, Greninja, Charizard and Lucario arent overatted, the correct term is overexposed or overused.

[gedexc]

My biggest hot take: touching my mom's food after just getting out of the oven

[FlareToga]

Hot Take: Triple, Rotation, and Inverse battles should've become a bigger thing and been a competitive format. They spice up battles and with new gimmicks, would make for some insane metas.

[melty_x_]

Liking charizard nowdays its like a hot take, they be throwing hate to whoever who likes him just because hes game freak favorite too

[DementedDoritoOfdoom]

Hot take: Trials are far more interesting than gyms, especially the totem pokemon battles. I feel like totem battles require a bit more strategy than any gym leader could. For gym battles, you really only need like one or two pokemon to sweep their team. This isn't always the case for Totem battles since the Totem Pokemon will generally always have something up their sleeve, making them a bit more of a challenge than gyms imo

[virtualcolt]

3:29 This hot take would have been better if the person said that they wish we had a trainer in each route with a team of 6, kinda like a challenge after beating every trainer in the route. This is very similar to what the Alola games do, where there are routes with trainers that only battle you if you defeat every trainer in that route.

[hankhill]

Disregard any take that uses the word overrated. If they just say their opinion, thats perfectly valid, but using overrated translates to "THING is popular but i dont like THING but i also dont have a reason i can put into words so im gonna say this to try to add some kind of objective weight to my opinion despite there not being a tangible scale to rate things"

[ssycooffwhite]

I know a lot of people might disagree with me, but I think the sinnoh cross-gen evolutions are really well designed and overall good pokemon. I especially don't understand the hate electivire, magmortar, and rhyperior get.

[alihanbaran]

My hot takes: Druddigon is underrated as hell and Golurk deserves a signature move

[prateekasolkar]

About the new Pokémon in new games hot take- I think gym leaders and major characters should have Pokémon from their regions as most of their team and aces rather than using primarily older gen Pokémon

[klatchabobby]

I 100% believe every single game should be locked to only having that gen's Pokémon in the region to catch until the post-game. Black and White was goated for that. Nothing annoys me more than seeing cross-generational Pokémon filling up spots in trainers' teams and the tall grass in what are supposed to be showcases of the new region's Pokémon
