>>53164081If you lurked here long enough, you'd see countless anons admitting to first playing the games at ages 3-6, despite them being 7's rated. there's many an ESL admitted they couldn't understand the games, because they couldn't yet read their language but still played on regardless "before going back a year or to later and playing them properly".
Guess what Anon. Pokémon is seen as safe for pre-schoolers, because they take pains to make it stylised cartoony violence, because everything loves you when you caught it and because the bad guys are paper tigers and have no real teeth, because they don't get portrayed as doing something like what gets reported on the real-world news about cartels, gangs and criminal organisations, as well as the other actions of the scum of the earth. And Game Freak are more than aware of this fact and cater to it, as that means more potential sales across the board (they have an app to help parents with brushing their kids' teeth, for fuck's sake).
