the relationship between /vp/ and the general pokemon fanbase is uniquely retarded
/vp/ has a lot of underaged but its consensus opinion on the series is formed by people about serebii/@JoeMerrick's age and have grown up with the series and know it's turned to shit and say so

the fanbase outside of /vp/ is a bit younger and mostly formulates its opinions based on serebii's pro bono shilling for the series. part of that opinion includes his constant dismissal of things on /vp/, and im p sure he himself is contemptuous of /vp/ (in a tripfaggy kinda way)

so you'll occasionally have these really weird posts on /vp/ calling the place shit – which, fair enough – but they're usually like way too angry idk. if it's not joe, it's some kid from his forums i dont know anything about pokemon youtubers but they seem to abhor /vp/ as well

there were almost definitely used to be paid shills on /v/ (still are? idk havent been on /v/ in years) as far as /vp/ i seriously doubt it. this is a fanbase that hates the most recent releases (USUM) and is talking so much shit about the upcoming Lets Go! release it cant work

a few days ago someone made a fake meltan evo in blender and posted the render on /vp/ and people in the thread were like "i mean it looks real and it looks like shit so it's probably real, because who the hell would bother to make this?"

answer: some kid that wants to prove how easy it is to make fake leaks on /vp/ im not terribly sure what was proven except there's a bizarre antipathy to /vp/ idk. /vp/ isn't the best example b/c it is one of 4chan's worst boards, but i find people who despise 4chan unlikable

my guess: if you're a control freak/sociopath*, you don't like 4chan because you can't manipulate an anonymous mob if you're oversocialised/conflict-avoidant, you dislike 4chan because the format means a safe consensus agreement won't be reached.
