>game freak incorporates some sexuality into their cut content in a manner evocative of irl mythology The most miserable people on planet earth: "OMG GAME FREAK ARE GOONERS? GOONERS? GAME FREAK GOONERS? WTF? GOONERS?"

bsky.app/profile/rive... Luckily, it got handed to Dr. Nyri before the raw text was lost in a sea of "OMGWTFBBQ", so we'll see interesting tidbits overvthe coming days and weeks

I hate this kind of person with all my heart and soul.

Pokémon fans are polluted in the brain. They have been for a very long time.

It was really weird seeing that type of reaction since to me it seemed be a behind the scenes writing exercise to say these are the myths of the world for the teams to reference while making the more appropriate ones in the actual games. Is it strange yeah, but so is every mythology irl.

i think its pretty funny and interested to see this, and it proves that pokemon are more than just animals.

Whatever you do, don't tell them about all the porn in the Disney vault. I think they'd pop like balloons. Or heck, do tell them so they pop like balloons.

Honestly, I just frankly don’t give a shit about the leaks or whatever anyone is saying about them. I’ve stopped caring about the Pokémon games. If the supposedly problematic material never made it into there final product, then QA did its job. I can’t wait for the internet to move on from this…

it's not even the first time this has come up tbh let's not forget everything gamefreak does with Machoke which youd think THAT would trigger this response but that would require them to be people who actually play pokemon games

And even if they were, so what? Sexuality has been a cornerstone of human expression, including mythology.

The craziest part is that if you THINK before hand you’ll automatically know it’s supposed to be a parody of mythology (especially Japanese mythology) But nah, IMMEDIATELY jumped to the gooner comment and creepy ass comments. Poor tyhploison gonna get the vaporeon treatment now
