I'm glad to know she was the same age as I was when I first fell in love with her, but now.. I don't know what to feel. I'm upset at myself, first and foremost, I'm upset that now there's probably nowhere I can talk about her without either having to deal with being called a pedophile or intentionally interacting with the "UOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH" crowd. both of which I despise. I.. don't know what to do. I need time to think about this. at least it's a good thing I never wanted to bang her...right?
No one cares about your blogpost. Take a shower.
>>56806573Acerola was clearly always child coded just like Hapu
>>56806579but I did so yesterday .w.>>56806600honestly? I never really saw it like that. I kinda just assumed she was just a goofy, short adult.
>>56806573congrats on your transition xister
>>56806573You want to fuck Acerola and expected not to be called a pedophile? Fucking lmfao
>>56806573Don't be upset. You love her in a non-lewd way, and that's all that matters.
>>56806678uh....thanks? I guess?>>56806703damn I knew the reading comprehension of 4chan was low, but not this low. >>56806715yeah, I guess you're right on that, but still. I thought this site was gonna finally let me talk about her. I guess all dreams die eventually.
>>56806725go back tranny
Least you get this cute beta animation tooAlso reminder that leaks are literally not canon. It's not in the game, and a lot of things have been changed from their pitches, so headcanon all you want, I know I've personally not added some leaks to my own HCs
>>56806748d'awwand yeah, I know it's non-canon, my friend told me that I shouldn't worry because it's not truly canon...doesn't mean people won't harass me over it now, though, does it..?
>>56806725Honestly? If I were you, I'd just own it. People are going to be lewd about this kind of thing, that's an inevitability, but you can still discuss her, at least I hope that's the case. Pokémon character ages really don't matter at the end of the day (as long as they aren't blatant children like Bonnie or Poppy, anyway), and you clearly like talking about her just because she's cute and charming. If I'm being honest, I don't think /vp/ (or 4chan in general, really) is a very good place for you. Sometimes it's best to just keep your head down and let the constant seething sort itself out, rather than constantly complain and attempt to reason with people.
>>56806725>>56806756>I don't think /vp/ (or 4chan in general, really) is a very good place for you.Adding to this, if you want I can link you to the discord. What's your tag?
>>56806748Okay, that is just adorable.>>56806755I feel like you've created an imaginary boogeyman in your head and you're getting all worked up over nothing. If you have friends you can talk about her with, that's all that matters.
>Uh oh, the fictional character has a low number, now I'm a bad boy for liking it!You're such a bitch, dude. I thought that the Masters thing was just your way of getting other people to shut up, but this is just pathetic. Rope yourself if you think you deserve it, more of her for me.
>>56806765I gotta be honest, just fling the invite link down. I'll join in. I'd rather not put my discord tag here, purely because I know people will trace it back to here and then I'll get called out.
>>56806755I've been in many of your previous threads, people were harassing you as it was anyway, and I don't think a leak would change that either way
>>56806799..yeah, you're right about that. people here don't really like me too much unless I'm posting my photography.
>>56806797Don't want other people in this thread joining you can assume who. Maybe create a throwaway account if you're shy.
>>56806810/vp/'s a shithole outside of comfy threads, of which there's only a fewBut whenever I see your Ace threads I'll always drop anything new I've found since the last one ^^
>>56806667How the HECK did you assume that Acerola was an adult? She acted like a kid all through her anime appearances too, just like Ash's classmates.
>>56806812that.. yeah, that's fair. throwaway is @midgetglasses>>56806837thank you, anon, you've been amazing. where do you even find all of your art? I have pixiv but I swear I haven't seen some of these posts before until now. >>56806851simply put, 2 things:!: lucky star2: never watched the anime past a few episodes, liko or ash.
>>56806886I follow a few artists on Twitter, and though I don't intentionally go out of my way to find art, there's a decent artist overlap between the character I actively search for and AcerolaWhich is fine, she's cute
>>56806573>I'm upset that now there's probably nowhere I can talk about her without either having to deal with being called a pedophile or intentionally interacting with the "UOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH" crowdthis was already the case before the leaks
>>56806573The main characters that are clearly kids in SM are Acerola and Lana
>>56806942ah, I see, twitter. don't like twitter, honestly. shit site.>>56806968..y'know, the more I think about it, yeah, you're right.
>>56807072Shit site? Yeah, agreedBut it's the only place some artists post their stuff, so I do what I have to do
>>56806573Acerola bro, the ages are not canon. They're a concept for a reason.
>>56807146yeah, but if the typhlosion reputation is like anything, it doesn't matter if it's non canon or not, it's still gonna get spammed any time it's mentioned.
>>56807167I've barely heard anything Typhlosion related in the past week, thankfully (can't stand all of those NPC pedophile jokes everyone makes these days).
>>56807180I don't really know if it gets posted anymore, all that shit is in my filters
>>56807167It was already that way before anyway desu. Zoomers have kinda been obsessed with being puritans and weaponizing morals for the purpose of arguments, especially this year, so this doesn't really change anything
>>56807227sadly, I am also a zoomerfriendly fire go brrrrrrrrrr
>>56807201It doesn't, thankfully.>>56807242Same. I don't really interact with anyone besides my friends and anons here, though. I'm off to bed now, it's getting really late for me.
>>56807242So am I
Almost everyone already assumed Acerola was 11 / a child even if her age was previously unknown, it won''t change anything. If you though she was an adult despite her looking like a child and acting like a child then that's your problem buddy.
>>56807378yeah, it was.I was hoping the concept age was going to be higher than that, because my brain hasn't been able to shake her out for the past 8 years..
>>56806765convinced this guy just.. died. got no invites at all .w.
>>56806573She was 11 when she died a century ago, so she's really 111.
>>56807757...oh god am I really one of THOSE people now?
>>56806748isn't that literally just the battle intro animation from her elite four fight?do you fags even play the games?
>>56807843yeah, it is...doesn't mean it isn't adorable though.
>>56807843It is, yes. But now it's in cute lineart form
>>56806755People are retarded, the sooner you accept it, the sooner you'll be free
>>56807909the sooner I accept WHAT exactly?
>>56807956That people are retarded and will shit on you regardless
>>56807956That people are retarded
>>56807317also a zoomer seems like to me and it seems like to me all my fellow zoomers are actually tired of shit why do we still do it? why do we keep up this song and dance i personally dont care but i see so many fellow zoomers do it wouldnt be all just be happier if we admitted we actually dont give a fuck about all this puritan and shit
but anyways cool thread op i love acerola the fact she lives in a abandoned supermarket is sick as hell
>>56807997>>56808020That.. yeah. It's annoying, though. Guess it's a private thing to enjoy by myself then.
I masturbated to Mallow yesterday and I'm 28I imagined I was 12-14ish and we were having a wholesome innocent teenage romancePoint is... it's just a fantasy dude. Zoomers care about fictionnal paed0philia is because they are oversocialized by the internet and treat fiction like realityImagine... it's ok for you, as a grown man to self insert as a 10yo but it's not ok for your self insert to fall in love? LmaoAnd even if it wasnt ok it's fiction. People murder civilians in GTA
>>56808168thing is, though, I never did any of that.I always imagined she was an adult like I was. I was worried for ages about it when I was around 16 because "I'm getting to the point where I can no longer have the excuse of being young anymore." now people have even more fuel against me for thinking I'm a creep.so, seeing all of this happen to me is.. painful, to say the least. worst part is, I have literally nobody to talk to about this at this current point in time, and I just.. wish that it wasn't like this. why couldn't my brain just let go of her? why am I broken?
Learn to draw and draw her as an adult
>>56808236it's.. a decent answer, but I honestly feel it'd be too difficult.
Meanwhile I'm jerking it to 8 year old Hapu sucking on my horsecock.
>>56808216You arent broken anon. Dont inflict unnecessary psychological torment on yourself.Attraction to young female anime characters is well known and documented in Japan. Hayao miyazaki likely had it and initiated the "moe genre"I like/love Mallow but real life kids do nothing for me lol. They are not even the same species.You might think it's copz but in the world of pokemon 10 years old are legal adultsThey can earn money, have a job, explore the world and even their psychology is akin to a young adult. Ash and co are very mature in the way they handle themselves. Takeshi shudo even confirmed it.Anyway fins yourself a /vp/fren to talk about it. I wish it for you.>>56808251Do it for your waifu anon!
litterally a nothing burger as adult women cosplay them anyways stop being a fag OP, nobody cares irl
>>56808265I do have a /vp/ friend I can talk to with/about it, but our timezones don't align well. main issue is that I just have a gigantic wave of guilt flooding through me. like those leaks grabbed me by the face and performed the penance stare.
>>56808273I mean, yeah, but....look. at my current situation, I have 4 options.>start coping and say she's an adult (awkward looking, makes me look pedophilic)>say she's been growing up alongside me (autistic as all hell and extremely weird)>go full on "um ackshually" with her and say she's probably a ghost so she's over 100 years old (saddening cause she's dead and gross cause it's pedophilic)>try my hardest to fight her out of my brain (extremely saddening)and, honestly.. I'm not really liking any of these options.I just wish I could keep the cope and stick with picrel, but my brain is hurting like hell over it. I genuinely feel like I'm going through the 5 stages of grief.
>>56808262Hapu is 8 years old?! I thought she was a lolibaba
>>56808277I would advise you to look at japanesz loli artists. You will find out they are regular people. With friends, trying their best, etc.Also you can start to consider Acerola as your daugtherfu/since your attraction to her goes waaaay beyond lustThis way you can be like her protector until she grows up and falls in love with youOr you can self insert as a kid like I didReally. You only feel guilty because you have been oversocialized by zoomer culture. Zillenials like myself and most anons don't care
>>56808338loli artists as in the ones who draw NSFW? or no. cause ngl, those guys actually creep me the fuck out.also, "daughterfu" feels weird as hell, and self inserting as a kid feels weird..
>>56808354You literally can't escape age, man.Acerola makes you happy. Allow yourself to be whatever age you deem 'okay' to be happy with her. It's your headcanon and the opinion of some retard on the internet means less than nothing when it comes to that
you were always a fucking pedo manplease find the nearest gas station and take yourself out muslim style
>>56808384..to be fair, if you're suggesting I can headcanon myself as younger..why can't I do the opposite? I'd much rather do that.
>alolabortions were 11 when SM came outbors....
>>56808354Even if she were 18, one day you'll be 40 and it would be "weird as hell" of you to waifu herJust take solace in the fact that in the Pokemon world a 10yo is a legal adultI mean grown ass men and women take the 10yo player character seriously in those games lmao. Literally 40 yo vilains like Giovanni talk to you as if you were their equal... because you are
>>56808400Then do it anonSun and moon take place in 2016 anyway so she is 19today lol
Are you retarded? She looks and acts like a child.You think Poppy is legal too? Retard.
>>56806573All of this thread is just self pity that you're too stupid to realize Acerola was always a really young girl. She was forced to be precocious because she was an orphan. Even the "she is a 100-year dead spirit" explanation is pure cope, you still like a character with a child's body. Just own up to it, stop being such a little bitch.
>>56808432legit. I was 12 when the game came out, so..
I'd prefer if acerola was like 27-35 despite her appearance. It'd be funny and fit with the ghost theme.
>Noooooo this character I really like is underage AIIIIEEE I have to hand myself over to the police right now!!!Please, PLEASE tell me this is just an elaborate troll. People aren't this fucking retarded/autistic, are they?
>>56808577disingenuine salazzle post.
>>56807146>>56806573Trial captains are specifically stated being between the ages of 11 to 20 (at which point they age out) so there's a lot less ambiguity over how old they are in general. If they're child coded, they're on the wrong side of 16 no matter how you do mental gymnastics and will be called out for it.Mina being 17 is just another example of GameFreak making tall blonde girls.
10 years old are adults in the pokemon worldIf you were a digimon fan who fell in love with, say, Hikari/Kari, then yes it would make you a "pedo" in her universe (not that I care) especially since she is written like a real world child but Acerola is one of the most important people in her region's "government" https://comicbook.com/anime/news/pokemon-anime-ash-adults-kids/
>>56808063It's because it's our generations form of social signalling. And people do it to fit in. Until this gen grows out of the weaponization of morals it won't stop. Irony is most of them are guilty of the things they accuse, this gen is full of degens
>it's another ERP threadEw
>>56806573She was clearly meant to be a kid. You just chose not to see it
>>56806573I'm just a lurker, but you were the first person I thought of when I read her age, Acrola Anon. I'm a bigtime cunny fan, but you have my condolences regardless.>>56808317Life is too short and fragile to fret about things like this to the degree you are. You seem to really, really like Acerola; the fact that you consider "fighting her out of your mind" as an option is rather sad to me. Please don't toss away something that makes you happy. To hell with your peers, just don't mention her in front of normies if that's what it takes. If anyone already knows you as an Acerola fan and they want you to 'denounce' her or some shit, then fuck'em. Being around people who are zealots to that degree probably wasn't for the best anyway.
>>56808469Poppy sounds like puppy so she is legal in dog years
>>56806573To be fair, all of the Trial Captains are teenagers by definition
