>>52857094So you just brush off the evidence because it's inconvenient towards your sensibilities, Mr. Galladeanon? When looking at how things are perceived in a wider sphere we should take a look at mass media especially because not only because it helps paint a clearer picture on how Pokémon are perceived but also the people who create said works. The furry subculture is very embedded in the Pokémon NSFW sphere and in turn this is what people notice, not only taking into account Pokémon unique context and how it shapes how people see Pokémon but also because people associate the two spheres together. Works from artist and big videos like furrymon are going to have greater influence on the public consciousness than your inane racist ramblings on 4chan while these works are reaching millions. All I'm doing is pointing out the manifesting of these views. The point i was trying to make is that Pokémon that lack wider furry appeal end up not receiving much NSFW like Tsareena, Meloetta and Hatterene despite them having good smash percents. The contrast between Cinderace almost 790 growth vs Hatterene 99 shows it well enough, all the mentioned ones even losing out to Ninetales from Gen I.
As you can see the appeal just doesn't trickle down to these because the sort of distinctions you're trying to make simply do no materialize.
