Serious question: what is up with this subreddit and its obsession over Tracey’s old-ass Scyther? What’s the origin story?

A user made jokes about Tracy having an elderly Scyther, a fan account was made to worship the king mantis, and then a meme was born. -Anipoke sub History 101

Every fandom has that one character who ~~is pretty weak in canon but~~ is praised as if he was super strong ~~by the memes,~~ Old ass Scyther is this character for the Pokeani comunity

Except his Scyther wasn't weak. His Scyther is awesome, and it was great to see it again in the last episode.

Scyther is basically his ace, lol. He just has no stamina.

Tbh Scyther's probably the third strongest Pokemon the gang has in the Orange Islanda saga, only Charizard and debatably Pikachu were stronger.

True. He even had a rivalry with Charizard so he definitely wasn't weak honestly.

why is he not the icon for this sub yet? respect the elderly

It should. It's the first meme that was made strictly in this sub. A piece of our history.

the old ass icon needs to be changed to everyone’s favorite old ass scyther

I loved the part where Tracey got bugged

personally i prefer the part where Bug got traceyed

Scyther, the strongest Pokémon in the anime, and Misty, the strongest trainer in the world, both in the same episode back in season 2. Orange Islands truly was ahead of it’s time.

Never change, u/BigAssScytherfan, never change.

I see Scyther, I upvote. Being Old-ass Scyther is just icing on the cake.

Tracey's Scyther is the best Pokémon ever lmao

- Seasons 1-8: Good point. - Season 9: Bad point.

Cori Falls would like a word

Meme aside, this was a fantastic catch episode especially for Ashs companions

How does a bug have facial hair?

These Scyther posts are so based. Keep making them

Thanks bro.

Bait not as good as u/biggestkalosfan

How is this bait

Yeah I'm confused.

Mods will probably remove this to prevent another best chemistry situation.

We're all just having fun on this sub. Don't be so uptight lol.

I’m all for it but mods will likely remove this to prevent another chemistry post situation.

Nah, I'm sure they won't. If they do I'll talk to Alakazam myself so it's cool. This is just a harmless meme in this sub. A lot of people that like XY likes this meme too like myself. There's no chemistry clash.

It's fine, I don't think there's anything to be baited here. Everyone knows this is just a joke and OldAssScytherFan hasn't triggered anyone yet.

can this sub-reddit shut up about Tracy's Syther FOR 5 FUCKING MINUTES

No, sorry.
