I mean it’s a pretty simple case of different countries having different values and symbols.
Personally, she looks pretty good with the apron over her shoulder, and you get to see more details of her shirt / see her belt at all - so overall it’s a decent switch that they handled well.

>depicting Black women as warm, kind, and motherly is racist
I'll never understand why people consider neutral and even positive stereotypes to be "racist". I can understand being annoyed if it causes people to make assumptions about you, or if your ethnicity is always depicted as that stereotype in pop culture, but calling it "racist" is totally absurd. Are non-whites really so desperate to think the whole world is against them that they choose to perceive straightforward admiration as hatred?

Kiawe and his family being black farmers is racist because that's that the kind of work slave owners used blacks for.

>making her a pokemom isn't good, lets give her green hair and a cape and look like fucking pajama sam
what the fuck is wrong with this designer
>>
>>59254333
No, woke would imply changing characters races to appeal to some sort of artificial quota. Blacks make up like 25% of NYC so they’re actually underrepresented in the games when you look at it.
>>
>>59254320
So how come people here say Nessa is tanned because she has blue eyes and a thin nose while ignoring Lenora has those as well?
>>
>black person and afro
>Mcdonalds toys + literal ice cream + urban youth in a hoodie +patriot eagle come to life as pokemon
>underage girl with fatass
black and white is pretty based once you realize how much their making fun of the region it's based in

>it's not woke when something I like does it

>>59254370
Except it's an inversion, as it's the blacks owning the farm and the whites share-cropping for them.
You're way back there in the 16th century, they're way the fuck out there in the 36th century.

Are we sure he said Mother and not Mammy

>>59254354
This "issue" with Lenora is that with the apron NoA thought she resembled the "mammy" stereotype, which was used to minimalize slavery
>but BW don't take place in a setting with slavery, Lenora isn't a slave. What could possibly be the problem with a happy black woman with a motherly who happens to wear an apron, No one did, but Nintendo still has PSTD from the Jynx incident. Really, Game Freak are such bumbling cocksuckers that NoA should put those tards on a shorter leash, but that's neither here nor there.

>>59254460
ignore it, that's just a pedo having a melty because Pokemon doesn't shit on blacks to make whatever race it is look better.

>>59254476
the hair probably
also didn't the teraleak say nessa was okinawan?

Woke doesn’t imply anything, it’s a buzzword that means “thing I don’t like”
