>>53589573How do anti Pokeshipfags who claim Poke was just 4Kids fanfiction justify the existence of Rudy’s episode or Movie 2?
What sort of mental gymnastics are they doing when we have an episode entirely focused on a dude literally trying to MARRY Misty, yet he himself realizes Misty prefers Ash in the end.
Or how about a whole-ass movie where Misty gets extremely jealous over the concept of any girl coming onto Ash? Ending with her admitting that “he’s her burden?”
I’m just really interested in the cope methods they use to twist these two instances, like short of an actual love confession or the characters kissing onscreen, how the fuck do you make what’s two of the clearest signs of romantic interest into something purely platonic?
Y’know how Pearlfags try to use simple “standing next to each other” scenes and friendly high-fives as literal hints? This feels like the opposite of that, or rather the other side of that same coin.
