>>59007670>>post-Gen 5: living out a found family fanfic with my aggressively queer and brown polyculeYou rike?

>>59007670
>>59007670Gen 5 has the first friend group THOUGH
>>59007670All of those characters are straight
Is screaming about "found family" tropes in fiction some new Heritage Foundation ordained culture war talking point? Retards keep whining about it as if it's new and only le gays like itEven "hero's journey" stories have that
>>59007702Are you ignirong Wally, May and Steven in gen 3?
>>59007708They are obviously gay-coded though.
>>59007725The only "gay-coded" (fake term btw) is maybe MAYBE Penny.
>>59007724That’s like saying Lance and Silver are your friend group in gen 2. You meet Wally a total of three times.
>>59007734Tierno comes off as kinda gay to me
>>59007670>Stupid piece of shit thinks the cancer didn't start in Gen 5.Of course, because it’s not like the fucking game doesn’t force you to swallow Bianca’s fucking story. Oh, the stupid fucking shit that N excretes from his mouth I'm not even going to talk about Hugh and how shitty, cancerous, and tedious his fucking dialogue is to read...Shit like you, who thinks Gen 5 is still real Pokemon, is the worst shit in the fandom. You're a poor, stupid imbecile who doesn't know what he's talking about.>muh le hecking brownsYeah, you stupid piece of shit, because BW didn't introduce Alder or Iris, right? You stupid piece of shit, do the world a favor and kill yourself.
>>59007670This picture kind of makes it obvious that Lida is intended to be some sort of Asian. Compare her skin tone to Taunie’s.
>>59007750>AlderAlder is aryan
>>59007670Me on top of Mt Coronet
>>59007750t. least assblasted Bortmongrel
>>59007761kek
>>59007757No, you piece of shit, there's a character in the same fucking region who's actually tanned and isn't a fucking reference to a native american like fucking Alder. Alder is brown, the first fucking brown champion.>>59007766>piece of shit thinks Gen 5 is Pokemon
marlons a tanned white guy you fucking idiot
Blue Eyes
>>59007778>gen5faggot doesn't know English>>59007782Wow, just like the Pageeta, Imagine believing that's an argument, you stupid imbecile.
>>59007750>Alder>brownYou are actually retarded.
>>59007852You're a stupid in denial.
>>59007670>Only "examples" of this "trend" are two latest gamesYou retards bitch about liberals politicized the unpolitical and then turn around and to the same thing. Hypocrites.
>>59007739How many times do you meet the xy crew? or the galar crew?
>>59007750>because it’s not like the fucking game doesn’t force you to swallow Bianca’s fucking storyreminder that it's optional lol
>>59007911No, it's not, you literally have to watch Elesa scold Bianca's dad, you can't skip that shit, just like you can't skip every fucking line of dialogue from Hugh talking about his fucking sister's purrloin
>>59007898>Cheren, Bianca, Hugh>Shauna, Tierno, Trevor, Serena>Hau, Lillie, Gladion>Hop, Marnie, Sonia, Leon, BedeBefore Gen 5, there was basically only 1 rival, and you never really interacted with them outside the occasional battle.
>>59007724Do you know what "friend group" means, ESL?
>>59007750I think you don't have a grasp on English yet, because that is not what OP wrote.
>>59007778Is this thread just full of irate ESLs who don't know how to read other peoples' posts?
>>59007852So not only are you blind and racially ignorant, you don't even know the lore of your own fav gen.
>>59008043No. If he actually meant to include Gen 5, he would’ve written:>>post-Gen 4: living out a found family fanfic with my aggressively queer and brown polyculeIt’s actually very simple. Pre means "before" and post means "after" so when someone says post-gen 5, they mean everything after Gen 5. I’m aware this may require the terrifying act of understanding basic prefixes but I promise it’s manageable with a little effort.
>>59007852He always came across as Native American to me
>>59008105"Post-" can, and in this instance *does*, mean "including and onward". OP's wording is meant to highlight Gen V as the critical inflection point. Its applicability to his second focus is implicit when one considers >>59007702, which OP rightfully did not believe was necessary to state obviously anymore than he already did. Ignorami such as yourself would just unfortunately get filtered, while everyone else could nod in agreement with him about how much the nugens suck.
>>59008105it should have been post-gen2 thoughbeitever
>>59008119why?
>>59008121wally, brendan/may, scott<- friend groupbarry, dawn/lucas, looker, cynthia<- friend group
>>59008125>>59008036
>>59008118Fair enough. That interpretation works if post gen 5 is understood to mean "gen 5 and everything after it" However, that phrasing is not the most precise. In most contexts, post X simply means “after X,” rather than "X and onward", that said, I understand the interpretation you’re describing, and it is valid.
>>59007907>XYI can’t recall exactly but it’s pretty often in the beginning and then a bit in some routes and towns. They also show up whenever Flare does something in the latter half of the game iirc
>seething at unova out of nowherewhy do trannies hate the best pokemon gen so much?
>>59007708The freak at the left outright says that your ingame mom is hot.
>>59008196you tell me
>>59008207me when I lie
>>59007750holy fucking based OP utterly and mercilessly raped
>>59008233dont talk to yourself, raj
Why do you autists care so much about the skin color of fictional characters
>>59008390Why do you care about games needing “diversity”
>pre-Gen 2: you're a random kid who goes around beating up the mafia, uncovering grotesque scientific experiments, and visiting mass graves>post-Gen 1: living out I'm the hero of the world in a heckin wholesome utopiaWhat made Pokemon start pandering almost exclusively to the basedlennial crowd?
Pokemon is a romantic epic until 3d era. It’s the passion of a gods ascension, Charizard rising to the top
>>59008557MazdaAnd also the ashnime, despite what Shudo envisioned
>>59007670> >post-Gen 5: living out a found family fanfic with my aggressively queer and brown polyculeYou really couldn’t help yourself with that last part could you. I hope the next game has a queer couple as the main plot, and all the important characters are brown or darker. Also Jacinthe makes an appearance as the true champion with a team where every member is exactly 1 level higher than whoever the current highest level’s trainer is, making Jacinthe the stronger champion ever. Also found families are based, go fuck yourself
>>59008390same skin color as their dad that left
>>59007782Look grey or just vaguely dark, shit that even Japanese Asian orientals have in anime and games
>>59008008>who are wally and may>who are dawn and barry>who are silver and lyra
>>59007752now that you've mentioned it, it's not just that—their eyes, too
>>59008674>found familiesThe widespread promotion of dissolving the natural family unit, the idea of abandoning natural blood families for cults made of people you're unrelated to (not even out of necessity but because living with strangers is somehow "cooler") is literal commie subversion. Anything glorifying the destruction of the status quo just for the sake of rebellion, old = bad/new = good, especially these days is usually communist.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_OldsMakes sense though since Tumblr is swarming with dysgenic commie atheists. Queer theory, LGBT shit, preference for people outside your own tribe/ingroup (for example people with different skin colors from your family), polycules and more are all commie ideas that have been promoted on Tumblr since the late 2000s or even earlier.This coincides with the end of Pokemon's gen 4 and the start of gen 5, curious.
>>59007670Your theory is retarded cuz Ash and Brock were in gen 1 and they are brown.
>>59007670post gen 5 with mega evolution:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNikMi0b24M
>>59007679FpbpFuck this faggot
>>59007670SV has the most coming of age story ever in a pokemon game you autist, the absolute irony of this retarded thread
>>59007670Sometimes I forget that there's people who are genuinely afraid of the Queers, niggas, and women.I'm so used to lurk here that I instinctively assume everyone who behaves like this is just doing it for fun.But OP is genuinely this faggy
>poltranny triggered into sperging out and posting one of his charts
>>59008557it's only natural to continue raising the stakes as a series progresses
>>59007693The way niggas talk about early pokemon youd swear theyre talking about dark souls
>>59007720Magatards have convinced themselves anything further than blood relations is satanic and reminiscent of the rootless cosmopolitan
>>59008047>gen 5 threadIt's like a call for every brownie to assemble.
>>59009496You don't have a wife or kids.
>>59007670>queerThere are no queers in Pokémon games and the fact that you think otherwise says a lot about yourself. Take some time to reflect a bit, OP
>>59009800Nobody is afraid of them, but nobody really needs to see them either.
