(Pokémon) Is the Litten line popular/well-liked?

Not by me it isn't. Thankfully Decidueye is more popular despite Incineroar's heavy push. I'd also rank Primarina higer but it's not as pkpular.
Yeah, I don't think the theme comes through that well either. It being freakishly horrifying to look at doesn't help either.
Cinder and its line are really popular for fursonas; helps that it's a more personable design than Incineroar. It also benefits from being strongly associated with Lucario, but most of all it's just that it's a very gender neutral design compared to Incineroar, which is also why Meowscarada will blow past it
It isn't even the most popular starter of its generation post smash
I can't speak for anyone else but I'm not a fan of the "person in a mascot suit" aesthetic that many starters have adopted (Incineroar included). There's a degree of anthropomorphism that's fine to me but some of the starters are a little too much.
I like them. I think Smash really sold me on them as they are really fun to play as.
Plus it's arguably the best Pokemon of all time in competitive VGC. So that's got to be worth something.
Also, this image cracks me up every time.

Love Litten, dislike Torracat, hate Incineroar.
I hate wrestling so Incineroar was always going to be bad news for me.

Incineroar feels like it's the only Pokémon whose popularity has been materially impacted by Smash, which makes it hard to judge.
I'm not much of an Incineroar fan, but like, I get it. I can understand why someone could find Incineroar appealing. Them Meowscarada enjoyers, though, I don't get them at all. It is a loathsome creature, and I can't imagine where the popularity stems from.
Part of it is the Smash effect too, but yeah, he is real popular. Also Incineroar being a heel is so fitting considering how good it has been in competitive Pokemon for so long and how sick of it some people are as a result lol. I love it.
It's better than the ugly ass Rowlett-line and even uglier Popplio-line, so I like how popular it is.

Yeah, it's way too much of a furry thing for me. Litten is great though.
You might not be as familiar with it but that style of magician is definitely a thing:
Oh good, I'm not the only one who measures popularity by how many e6 submissions there are.
Reasonably so, yes.
Cats are objectively the worst animal so both Incineroar and Meowscarada and bottom tiers starters
I mean, these are Pokémon we're talking about.
"Water duck!" "Rock snake!" "Ice bird!"
Litten is a good kitty among strong competition
Torracat is secretly a top tier middle form and might be the best cat that's just a cat in the series
Smash bros made Incineroar pretty based, that's on top of heel pro wrestler being something I already marked out for.
But the Rowlet line is just too good, no bias, just facts
In any case the Alola starters>>>the rest
All three trios are pretty tops

I mean it's a Pokemon based on Tiger Mask, which has half a century worth of pop culture importance in Japan. You can't really get more inspired than that. Its also just a reality that most Pokemon are biped, because they are based on monsters. Go look at gen 1 and you'll see there are very few quadrupeds.
That aside, cats and grass Pokemon have a pretty varied history, so I don't see what is wrong with Meowscarada being biped. Cats have Umbreon, Espeon, skitty, Persian, delcatty etc etc who are quadrupeds. And grass starters have had a ton of variety from no legs, to multiple lines that end in quadrupeds.
It is a jester mask, and it is wearing a cape.

Absolutely disgusting. Cinderace may be my least favorite starter ever
Incineroar being a blight in Pokemon's VGC Meta also helped its image for me.
Incineroar's hated everywhere and that's what makes it for me.
i just don't like em. i don't think any responsible parent would allow their child to have a litten without an everstone. he could challenge for custody.
and it's just depressing to think about, inceneroar and Meowscarada. what wretched lives do they lead if they don't want to be a professional wrestler or a magician? they can't survive in the wild any more.
there are of course a variety of pokemon that go against what id prefer design wise. thats fine. still dont like em though. i like pokemon as a concept to be mostly mysterious magical animals/beings to get lost into a world of wonder and adventure. inceneroar and company are pokemon that break that illusion for me. theyre so specialized and human in design and character that they become something else in my eyes.
someone who uses that website tell me what kingler is at. is my boy safe from this
Reasonably so, yes.
Incineroar is badass. Actually all of the gen 7 starters are great, it's just the Rowlet line occupies a niche that isn't seen anywhere else in Pokemon, while Iceineroar has to deal with being lumped in with the THREE Fire/Fighting starters despite being Fire/Dark.
Yes, which is why they should've called it a Masquerade Pokemon or a Jester Pokemon instead of a Magician Pokemon. :P
I own www.incineroar.com
I don't know why. I don't have it pointing anywhere. I just renew it every year for some reason…

Where's the idea VGC players hate Incineroar come from lol I feel the consensus is it brings more good than bad. It's the best kind of mon to be the most used.
For me I just like new and unique designs and variety. The Pokemon that caught me first was Blastoise, which is a bipedal turtle that has two metal cannons in its shell. Hitmonchan was another, which is literally wearing boxing gloves and clothes. It also helps that I see humans as animals so designs closer to that dont really stand out to me.
All the people who drag Incineroar and design fanmon to "replace" him just turn the line into a "it gets bigger" cat. None of the personality starters are actually supposed to have
For real? Do you get a lot of offers on it? Can I pay you to have it redirect to my website?
