This list is subjective and myopic beyond all hell but point #7 just makes me laugh:

7. "Neverused tier. In game stats are incredibly lackluster and he currently sees no use in competitive or casual setting (least picked starter)"

Oh boy. Yes, Incineroar is in the NU singles tier. However, if you look at Smogon's Doubles OU Rankings:

You'll see that our so called unviable cat is in Tier 1. The highest tier of viablity thanks to his combination of bulk, Intimidate, great typing, and Fake Out. And the same goes for cartridge play which so many people seem to forget exists. He's #1 on Battle Spot Doubles and VGC as we speak worldwide. You can check for yourself on Pokemon Global Link.

Incineroar may not be OU but he's made an incredible splash in competitive Pokemon. Bonus points for some of his best metas being ones that Game Freak actually cares about. His competitive starpower is much higher than Primarina's and DESTROYS Decidueye so this point in particular has no basis in reality at all. Just cause a Pokemon ain't OU doesn't mean it has no place in competitive Pokemon.

And as for that anime point, it's already making good showings with Professor Kukui and Ash will have one before long and it'll likely be a powerhouse. Between this and his strong performance in Doubles formats, Incineroar has plenty ground to be popular for a long time. This rant is just laughable.

Op is a fag, but he’s right in one thing, Incineroar doe not have the staying power Greninja still has, being in Smash isn’t a guarantee you’ll be relevant for years to come, coughCorrincough
