Anyone else disappointed by the Sun and Moon protagonists?
They're both generic as fuck, and the girl's hat is retarded.

Most likely due to customization hopefully that they didn't bother as much for a detailed design. After all why design something that people are going to change?

Why not just have one preset that you can customize right from the start of the game like the sims?
It's retarded you have to start the game a certain way and waste a few hours progressing through the game before you get contacts or a haircut or what ever.

It's more of a personal thing, I'm actually Mexican but actually do look like #2 and keep getting mistaken for White and/or Asian.

that is a moot point in this conversation. these are avatars in a videogame. they have defined and undefined meanings. this is a game made by JAPANESE PEOPLE. just because the skin is light does not mean they are white. white people in general need to stop mistaking anime characters for themselves. fuckin myopia
>>
>>26550735
non-argument, dude. white people are not "normal" or "default." there is a white person, an asian person, a brown person, and a black person. all are ambiguous enough to be identifiable by many races, but it is clear that the distinction is there intentionally. to say that both of them are white is to tell everybody that you're a huge dumbfuck. there is no argument to be made. white, asian, brown, black.

Yeah, I have to agree. The guy looks like an equally shit redesign of the XY male protagonist (and seriously, they apparently have no idea what "short hair" means, because no hair option in XY was actually short for guys, and they keep defaulting to ridiculously long hair for the male characters).

The girl, whilst kinda cute, is mostly just short hair Serena.

Dang.
I hope they at least give males more options. Anything more would be better than red shirt, green shirt, black shirt. Even if they just made all clothing unisex. I'm sure some mixing and matching could work.

Then again, all I want to do is to turn my Mc into the fuccboi I wish I could be in real life. Animal crossing new leaf was nice enough to let me do it, as a "joke" of course.

Have you ever been to Tumblr? Because that isn't true at all.

The female just looks like Serena with a different outfit, but I like the male. I wouldn't say it's my favorite male design, but it's easily the first time I'd pick the male over the female.
>>
>>26559457
That's not true at all. If anything, I'm surprised Tumblr isn't mad about Game Freak whitewashing black people and removing their "beautiful natural looks" (big lips, afros, big ears, etc).

I understand why you'd be confused, since it doesn't make sense, but you still don't know what you're talking about.

>The female just looks like Serena with a different outfit
It's kind of hard not to do that, really. The defining trait of Pokemon trainer designs has always been the hair and hat.
>>
>>26559548
I know, but the face looks so similar. They've been doing that a lot lately with the same-face sorta shit, but it's probably just because of the chibi artstyle. Hopefully the feeling will subside once they use actual anatomy.

I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing to have different races in a cast, but there's a point where you start going through 5 different labels before you actually get to the character.

There are also tumblr artists who take white characters and add what would-be racist traits (huge lips, huge ears, afros) and give them super black skin and think they're social justice warriors. It's a mix of both. Frankly, I try not to worry about it. They're insane, it's no skin off my nose.
