What did Game Freak mean by this?
What did Game Freak mean by this?
They were mentally-ill autists that wanted you to self-insert back then.
what happened between R/S and emerald that made them like this?
where did these people even come from
what do you mean "these people"?
I'm gay and I did the right thing.
Why does it matter? what, they gonna get naked or something?
They knew their target audience was children who are more likely to name the character after themselves. No girl is gonna pick the boy and name them Cindy and no boy is gonna pick the girl and call them Adam.
Now if you're older you're likely to just use the default names and you'll just pick whichever design appeals to you more. So if you like Brendan more you'll pick them and name them accordingly and same for if you prefer May.
Or wait, you just wanted to shitpost about trans nonsense or whatever. My bad, let me just
*ahem*
HURR TROONS HURR BODY TYPE 1 AND 2 HURR WHY YOU PLAY AS A GIRL HURR SELF INSERT AS A LITTLE GIRL HURR DURR
There you can let this waste of a thread die now
female pokemon characters are literal 10/10 character designs
male pokemon characters are literal 1/10 character designs
explain why I would every pick the male
Hilbert isn't bad
because i'm not a girl
They probably got some letters from angry parents wondering why Timmy is playing with a hottie in biker shorts
In Crystal you got to pick between mid-tier girl Kris or CHAD Gold. It wasn't until Gen 3 when you even got the "girls get hotter, guys look stupider" meme.
they really should not give a visual image of the character you'll be playing as when you pick your gender
ACTUALLY they should do what the first game did: you were gender locked into playing as a boy because 99% of the players will be boys anyway
I never play as the female character because I self-insert as the male protagonist and imagine myself in a relationship with the girl
more choice is... le bad...
i'm sick and tired of pretending that you can just swap out a boy for a girl in every story line and it makes sense. your precious cosmetic-only choice can eat glass.
self insert? is that what they call schizophrenia now?
Red and Gold/Ethan are classic designs that are superior to their female counterparts. Hilbert and Calem and whatever the fuck the S/V male is called are good enough to choose. Every other gen, the females are better though.
You're just a heterosexual male.
For females and gays, the male protagonist are 10/10s.
I pity you. You're so bitter, you can't imagine yourself in a better world.
They used "he or she" in place of they up until X and Y for the cards, if I'm not mistaken. Google's search AI claims 2022, but that can't be correct. I saw the use of "they" in Sun and Moon cards.
Both of those designs are shit, faggot.
Choosing girl to become a trans pipeline needs to be studied
Because the player character is silent so if you want the 10/10 design to actually talk and have personality you need to choose the other one
Only boys can do things! Only boys can go on an adventure!
What are you, 4? Grow up, retard.
Don't be a faggot.
male pokemon characters are literal 1/10 character designs
the only bad one is the bw2 protag and arguably the dppt one
Yes, yes (you) are.
both gen 5 boys are different flavors of mega QT
yall niggas don't know shit
bw1 boy is one of the best designs in the series I don't like nates stupid visor pineapple hair
Unfortunately true to life. If he's a guy who expresses himself, has an interest in fashion, then he's a fag
It's easier to immerse yourself in the gameworld if you self-insert as the protagonist to an extent. That's why Pokemon protags are voiceless, mostly blank slates.
gay
out of all the games you can accuse of having a dominantly male fanbase you do it in a pokemon thread.
nope, the autistic and strange kids picked the opposite gender player character in pokemon
most would name them after themselves too
this but the opposite
pokéboys are 10/10 but female trainers are pointless and ugly
not liking them both
are you some kind of fag?
Someone inform the trans crowd about this
I've only ever played as a girl in Pokémon since the option was added in Crystal. I'm still a guy 23 years and seven generations later just one with a full cabinet of female trainer scale figures because I'm too much of a waifufag and TPC has got me by the balls.
because 99% of the players will be boys anyway
In Pokemon
El retardo, we meet again.
Canon gaming.
Male was better in Black/White 1, basically Red-successor. Female looked like a dumb whore.
Female was better Black/White 2, super cute. Male has a stupid haircut and hat.
Black/White 2 is just final game of the series (despite liking them adding Fairy type). It was the best game pound-per-pound. It was the last game before 3D totally fucked the art style. It ended in a huge 'world tournament' where you can play against almost every major trainer in the series. And I believe it was the last game with Male/Female.
I just pretend X/Y and beyond were some shitty non-canon reboot.
I want to be Rosa so bad...
I always got a copy of each version, and would play through one as a boy and the other as a girl simultaneously.
I got both Diamond and Pearl for my birthday, and Diamond was my main game and I played Pearl as a girl named after a girl I liked in school usually one gym behind Diamond.
whoa where do i find more of this
Not so fast.
These two fuck in the manga
I genned it on AI to feed my AGP. Sorry.
are the manga worth reading? I read up until they changed the characters for Johto back in highschool forever ago and really enjoyed it
Game Freak? More like Game Freaky! Heh
Is red the only protagonist to take this shit seriously
Yeah, it's always fun.
Some of the Pokemon games the male MC is so bland I couldn't really fault somebody for choosing female just for something more interesting, emerald however is not one of those games.
does it keep the same energy throughout the series? I remember the manga being a little more edgy than the anime and doing crazy shit like combining the legendary birds together
A true role-playing game would let me play like pic related.
Gen 1 feels a little weirder than the rest but it almost always manages to do its own thing. Something I particularly enjoyed was how both the gen 6 and gen 7 arcs actually incorporated Zygarde in the story after it got shafted in the games. The MCs are always full of personality too.
What is the video game studio/developer for the gamer who hates Pokémon, hates Nintendo, wants a company that openly hates Nintendo and only makes games that no one associates with Nintendo?
Dating mechanics in pokemon again when?
but they ar-
Just age them up, its about time we get a more serious pokemon game anyway, pokemon war and all that
but thats ed-
Sun and moon has Nanu talking about how he will make sure your remains are returned to your mom just before you enter the team skull base
How's the Japanese level in the manga?
Legends Arceus has the expedition team leader straight-up tell you you'll probably die out there and the villain tells Giratina to kill (You) rather than your Pokémon.
Easy, it has furigana like the games.
Apparently, he's also the only one good enough to be a true superboss in a sequel to his game.
This autist is still doing this, absolutely wild.
Care to explain why Kris is not on that pic? Id yiu ask me I'd say that she's the housewife while Lyra is the trainer couple. Both serving Ethan in offscreen harem.
Am I the only one who actually likes Kris? I like her design far more than Lyra's.
Id yiu ask
If you ask me*
Why did he start drawing tits on the guys
Ingesting large amounts of semen has feminizing effects.
nah saph just keeps getting cucked
I pity you. You are severely autistic.
Terrible example actually since you get to date Yancy as Nate.
most, like 99.999% of all people, relate to their own biological gender more
you can roleplay your own gender better
nigga it's pokemon what fucking roleplaying
Having sex with his gardevoir obviously
idgi wdym
haha
Roleplay?
I just wanna see some tits jiggle when they throw pokeballs
they want kids to enjoy the art
Playing as female fullfilled my desire to control a female.
With few exception all are extremely inflatable.
WTF is the hair on the boy.
Pineapple enthusiast.
It's funny how even the old rivals don't have designs as lame as the modern male MCs, despite basically all of them being either edgelords or dorks, except for Gary.
You were one of those kids?
But you're not the character on the screen.
mei sexo
not picking female AND self inserting
you are brain washed by porn
rosas design is fucking awful
Brendan looks better in RS than he does in Emerald or ORAS, Hilbert looks fine and I never understood the hate for Calem and the flowing red scarf does a lot for Rei's outfit.
not transgender sis
Based...!
I look like this
