>>56633688You forget Game Freak set the canon and Sugi re-designed it to fit their universe. Game Freak had chosen Ho-Oh, based off the Ho-Oh/Fenghuang/Ho-O a feminine deity. shudo could have drawn a woman with big tits and hairy cunt, "she" was still going to get a sex change to fit into Pokémon, because she was a forced addition instead of an original creation, created alongside Ho-Oh (notice how all other box legends after came in pairs conceptualised simultaneously). Shudo was a mentally unstable man, who actually though HE was to blame for Pokémon's success and not the fact he designs were gold dust and the brand grew organically from nothing.
