We all agree that Team Aqua are no black people, but tanned white people
But what about Shelly? She really looks like a strong and independent black woman

The fuck are people so adamant about saying team aqua is anything but black for? I'm not saying they are, but that seems to really get anons angry.

Anyway, I think GF just made some people brown and some people white. No real idea as to what race they were supposed to be. Which is how it should be

They're tanned Japanese. This is Hoenn, not Kalos or Unova. Why is this so hard for people to understand?

It's Poke-Hoenn. Though it's based off the Japanese region they've been pretty insistent that the Pokemon world is different from Earth.

Anyways, they just made her brown to be ambiguous. Just like people think pale-skinned anime characters look white she's darker to give that same idea to other people.

The game is set in a region based on Japan. The game is made by Japanese people.

Stop making these threads you raging dumbass.

>>22815080
People think anime characters are white because they're Westerners who think anyone with pale skin must be white. Anime characters are stylized Japanese people, just because they have big eyes or blonde hair or whatever doesn't mean they're not supposed to be Japanese. It's a cartoon, of course they're not gonna look realistic.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise (like with Lt. Surge) you can be sure characters from pre-Unova regions are Poke-Japanese. Anime and Japanese video games always make it blatantly obvious when characters are another ethnicity.

Oh come on
Even if that IS her natural skin colour i wouldn't call her black.
maybe something like middle-eastern or cuban or something, but she's still too pale to be of african decent

You do know that not all individuals of african descent have extremely dark skin right? They come in lighter shades of brown as well.

They're modern-days Okinawan pirates (from Ryukyu Islands, like Maxi) with some aspects of Somalian pirates.

Unless they extremely exaggerate a character's features characters of different races don't look much different. Anime itself was mostly based on Disney works anyways, which depicted mainly west Europeans.

Unovans don't look significantly different from any previous games' characters (ignoring artstyle changes over the years) and obviously black characters in Unova/Kalos share most of the same "Japanese" character traits as well, the only real indicator is curly hair which isn't universal.

Why are people so slow to pick up on the fact that Shelly has BLUE eyes, and generally speaking those with African descent have dark skin AND brown eyes, (it's extremely rare for even mixed raced people end up with light-coloured eyes)

Although skin colour among niggers is common, a true nigger always has brown eyes.

Japanese people tend to have brown eyes as well.

Hair/eye color in anime is meaningless

So far any black people depicted in pokemon have been made to obviously have dark skin, curly hair type and brown eyes. I say "obviously" because GF wants to make it very clear to their audience that they include members of all races in their games, to gain any brownie points.

If they wanted to make Shelly black, they would have designed her in a manner that there would be no doubts about what race she was, as >>22816697 points out.

Anon, give it up or go back to tumblr. They're Japanese. Japanese people are allowed to be something other than pale. The Japanese fanbase aren't considering them black so neither should you.
