>>53912993Finch is a faggot, but he's not the "leader" of Smogon. He's a councilmember for current gen OU. You and your buddies could dethrone him if you had the skills. Smogon is basically run by the cream of the crop, so, just like FGC or the speedrunning community, or any other autist-heavy gaming community, they have a higher than average percentage of troons rising to the top.
Besides, cart players are more likely to be trannies than the average population anyways.
