>>14748948>>14748948I wasn't assuming neutrality, nor did I claim that any numbers "added up". I never said that the ratio of male to female champions had to be equal, or that they should.
Life isn't fair and there are naturally going to be more males in some areas. So no one is saying the number should be the same.
In fact, I don't think I've seen any female blackbelts in X or Y. Is that unfair or sexist?
I'm not sure what you're even linking my opinion to as being "identical".
The game had no female champions for three generations--so what? We weren't able to play as a girl until Crystal. I had to go through Blue, Yellow, and Silver as a boy, even though I really wanted to be a girl.
But I still played it because it was Pokemon and I loved it. I understood that, at the time, Pokemon was more marketed towards males, as most vidya games were.
(I know, there was artwork of a girl character in the R/B/G days and it's said they originally planned to include a girl option, but there was a data space or time issue.)
