Because she's, in theory, around the same "age" as Ash.

Remember that the BW protags were bumped up age-wise when compared to the protags from the last two gens.

Because news would spread across Japan that all the infants watching the B/W Pokemon series are mysteriously accomplishing 2 feet boners.

Iris was the better choice as a travelling companion. Unique design, jungle girl athletics, a background that meant she had a lot to learn about the outside world, a goal that in theory is pretty cool.
They dropped the ball obviously, but still, there was at least something to work with there.

Which makes perfect sense seeing as no one has ever had a boner over Misty, May or Dawn.

Consider the Gen VI protags seem even older I expect they'll do something like they did with Iris.

What would Hilda's goal be? There are no contests in Unova, no one wants to watch Musicals, and we can't have Ash and Hilda both doing gym battles. No one wants to watch two people battle the same gym leader back to back.

Solution: Use Iris, and make her goal becoming a Dragon Master.

That, and they were emulating the original cast by having Ash travel with two gym leadrs.

Japan and America are both ignorant of each other's cultures.

An American doesn't know what ganguro is, so to them, it looks like an offensive blackface stereotype.

Though only one person complained about Jynx anyway.

It isn't based on ganguro, it's based on a blackface character

Wrong. It's neither ganguro nor blackface.

>Jynx may also have origins in the Japanese spirits known as Yuki-onna, who lack feet, akin to Jynx's feet being covered by her dress, and Yama Uba, which is described as always wearing a tattered red kimono, having whitish-blonde hair, control over snow, dark-colored skin, and large lips, traits which are evident in Jynx.

That's the most likely influence behind Jynx.
