What's the point of female protagonists if male protagonists

What's the point of having women in the first place when some bald-ass semi-athletic naked man is the mascot for all mankind?

To avoid sexism lawsuits.

>>32269421
Where are the male protagonists depicted by default outside of Generations and Red?

>>32269421
I want to lick those armpits

>>32269441
Is that a real thing?
Can you get sued for making a "sexist" video game?

>>32269459
You can get sued for anything.

>>32269459
You can, it doesn't mean shit will actually happen though.

>>32269421
Because I'm not gay and don't want to play as a smelly boy.

>>32269485
How would you even smell your character?
The technology doesn't exist.

>>32269485
>i'm not gay and that's why I personify myself into a girl in a game for children

>>32269485
If you honestly cannot stop staring at butts, then kiss it!

Is this thread supposed to be ironic?

>>32269421
Honestly if her counterpart was pretty much anyone but Red she would be way more popular

Waifu faggotring and shipping. Reversed if you play as them in most games, but it has more hints if they're the NPC.

Blue/Leaf: Doesn't exist. Sadly, I think she's the most attractive one.

Kris: Doesn't exist. Replaced by Lyra.

Lyra: Not a lot, but there is.

>"Oh... this is... your boyfriend..."
>"What? Grandma...! What are you talking about? He just happens to live nearby..."

She also has a few more lines but that's it.

May: The most obvious one.

Dawn: Same as Lyra.

>"Sigh... To be with that special someone in a wonderful Villa like this... I think it's a nice dream to have."

>"You and your Pokémon together with me and my Pokémon... United like this, our dream team has no chance of losing!"

Hilda: Pretty much non existent. You just meet her at the subway and that's it.

Rosa: Just a line after the battle against the subway bosses. After that, the same as Hilda

"<Player>! I had a really great time battling with you! I hope we can battle together again sometime! See you!"

Serena: She's keen on just surpassing you. And as if she doesn't have any feelings.
THUD THUD THUD
Shauna takes her place.

Moon: Doesn't exist. Lillie takes her place

For waifufags and other such people with unhealthy obsessions for little girls of course.

They really should use reverse gender characters like May again.

>>32269674
I guess this applies to Calem too

>>32269674
Does she call you [Name]-kun in the game when you play it as Japanese?

I know Lillie calls you [Name]-san

To give female players an avatar. Simple as that. It doesn't exactly have to mean anything, it's just a way to let female players enjoy the game using an avatar they would be more comfortable with. As soon as that character stops being the avatar, like with Red, they stop caring.

>>32269421
It use to be for female characters to better connect to their avatar. Nowadays, though, Gamefreak puts them in for Waifufags, especially when you look at the later designs compared to past ones.

>Moon: Doesn't exist.
Seek the nearest gas chamber and lock it from the inside.

>>32269485
This is the most retarded excuse for playing as a female ever.

Sun is canon and you know it

wrong.

>>32271572
I was unaware those went together. Is it because of the manga?

>>32271593
Sadly yes. I find feet repulsive and if ever I say I like Kris there's usually one anon who calls me a footfag.

That's weird, I'd call you a spandexfag before a footfag. It's the one thing consistent between all her appearances.

>>32271485
There's not enough evidence for either one to be canon.
