Do people know why there are pokemon in the right of sigs?

This is something I've found amusing... there's a very good reason for a number of these pokemon, but I'm wondering, are there some people who have just 'joined the bandwagon' and done it because they thought it was some kind of fad? Or is everyone really aware of what's going on?

If you actually don't know what's going on, it's because of a mafia game requiring everyone to be a pokemon

(Edit: theory, I'm not sure if this really belongs here or in General... it's kinda related to the forums, but it's also kinda not I guess. Go ahead and move it if you think it's better there).

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.

I knew what it was for. That doesn't make it any less of a fad now, though.

I haven't read  maria thread in months, but I assumed that that is what it was for.

Everything is about mafia, amiright?

I just put my favorites in the sig since everyone was doing it.  I'm a filthy follower.

Which came first, the ability to put a pokemon in the right of sigs, or the mafia game requiring everyone to be a pokemon?

I'm a sympathizer, but not a real fan, so I chose MegaMan doing an invisible Hadouken instead.

Actually, the rhetorical question is closer than you think, since the tag for right-aligned didn't exist here before we ran Cosmic Encounter #1 & #2. Granted, that WAS a few months ago now, but still....

Faust has also been incredibly stubborn this game. In other news, it's hot in the summer, and water falls from the sky when it rains.

Not rhetorical!  I really didn't know.

Now I do!  Very cool.
