Ok, semi serious question. IF there was confirm that Satoshi Tajiri, Masuda or anyone from gamefreak was, say, Pedo/murdere/Racist
How much more popular would Pokemon be?
Would people stop playing GO?

Normalfags don't know who any of these people are
They're not public figures. There would be a huge backlash in the community, but normies would stay unaware

they'd be fired, Gamefreak would disassociate pokemon from them. does less damage to the brand than yokai watch.

>"Direct: Creator of pokemon is pedo"
even normies would get this

Depends on the level, not everyone is as senestive as American SJWs.
If it was revealed that any of them collected loli doujins it probably wouldn't be a big deal. Also a reminder that the age of consent in Japan is 13.
Japanese people in general are pretty xenophobic too and stereotypes aren't often played for laughs, so it had to be something incredibly racist for them to actually feel any consequences.
But actual rape/murder, then they're gone in a heartbeat.
