This whole Pokemon's evolution line is like the origin story of a shonen anime character. Started as a weakling crybaby, went through an emotional crisis phase with an exterior appearance to match, and finally became a powerful spy-like warrior with elemental affinity and a smug attitude.

…waaaait a minute……

And the guy who made the video used for that tf2 gif tells the story of a simple gmod animator, who then struck it big, and had his golden years. I remember helping him with a few models he used in those vids. Then he lost it all when he stopped making gmod vids and became a furry instead.
