Fun Fact: Tracy was made literally to fill space. The show's staff thought Brock's character design would cause problems due to the eyes. Ironically no changes were made to his design yet Jynx had to be recolored and was seldom seen in the dub after that fiasco.

Disappointment of a childhood.

That moment when Ash lost due to Charizard being a bitch is the moment you knew you should be watching Digimon instead.

You literally sound like every "Mew's under the truck" kid from grade school.

*ahem*
"The translator began to explain that the Japanese crew felt that Brock might be viewed as racist by the American people because of his eyes, and that they were even fearful of it when Pokemon first came to America. I asked if anyone ever complained, and he said no, but it was just that they were worried someone might eventually"

Nothing, that's why they brought him back.

But Japan often finds things they think are OK are big Western controversies, especially in regards to race, so they were just covering their arses really.

I liked the part where Misty stomped on his foot and then violently shook him by his collar. She was a hero for that one, fleeting moment.

Because they're just straight lines, as if he has squinted eyes, which is a stereotype for asians.
They thought the western audience would find that racist, even though all other characters don't have those eyes and are asian too.
