I think the main reason people love the Pachirisu so much, is less because of the "use your favourites" thing, but more so because it's nice to see non standard teams and good meta pick calls.

[@DrPumpkinz]

I'm not so sure. If you go into the comment section of the video, you'll find swarms of people quoting Karen.

[@JoelDZ]

I think that's true in the VGC community, but this story made its way to the Pokemon community at large

[@JosephGambit]

Yeah, but how many peoples favourite Pokemon is Garchomp? You don't see people cheering in the same way for that

[@MrZahsome]

It definitely stood out being an off meta pick and being a Pikachu clone probably also drew a lot of attention. I'm sure people were sick of seeing a bunch of Garchomps, Charizards and Tyranitars being spammed on every team as well so why not cheer for the underdog. Plus, the rest of Sejun's team also ran sets that wouldn't really be considered "standard" for his pokemon either so there's that as well.

[@morrasod1858]

But that’s the thing, Garados looks like a strong Pokémon. Pachirusu does not. I remember watching this before knowing any thing about comp Pokémon, and being like “wow, this guy really has a connection to these pokemon, I respect that”

[@Xanderqwerty123]

Something really awful about this event was how many people, in seeing Sejun as the underdog, suddenly decided Jeudy was some evil person who represented the bad side of competitive Pokemon. People psychoanalysed him and spoke about him like some evil movie rival and not just a guy who plays Pokemon. They also conveniently ignored that if anything, Jeudy was the underdog with less wins than Sejun but that wouldn't make the narrative as compelling I guess. It felt outright racist at points with how much slander and abuse Jeudy got and I genuinly feel bad that he was cast as the "villain" in the public's eye for not using an unusual Pokemon :/

Finally. A really good analysis on Pachirisu's success. It was a truly polarizing pick in 2014. People were talking about it, even a year or more later. And no one could elaborate on the opinion they had on it - whether it be positive or negative.

[@greyscaleadaven]

Better analogy for the Pachirisu: Know how, where, and when to use your favorite pokemon so that when the time comes, you can make use of it's unique strengths and weaknesses. This is why pokemon make resurgences as anti-meta picks throughout competitive history. Although it's hard to just come up with something like that, if you can manage to do enough work with a pokemon, there is a niche for it somewhere. Maybe not in VGC, but in smogon at least, I've found my greatest successes with this attitude. Using things that your opponent won't expect while choosing them specifically to counter pokemon most commonly used in the metagame is exactly how and when a meta progresses, and I think that's what's happening in this case. Also this format is super cool, and I'd like to see more like this covered by Wolfe who has a keen understanding of how this metagame works.

[@Dr._is_sleepy]

Pachi wasn't sejuns favorite until he used it.

Yeah, what you should know is that singles format is an incredibly unbalanced mess of a format which is why VGC doesnt run it.
