It doesn't matter if you have little
or if you're strong
or if you're smart
or if you're ambitious
or if you're just a kid at home
because Pokemon is for you and the same way it appealed to people of different ethnic backgrounds, it can appeal to people from all walks of life in general.

it's a dumb move which reveals the spreadsheet ticking marketing team behind the ad are subpar — it's not difficult to look at a spreadsheet and tick boxes, and yet this team failed.

I'm Indian and not poverty-stricken like that, but it's just an example of what we see in society that's commonplace. Regardless of whether or not you fit that stereotype, it's just taking an example of what we do see to inspire those people, because they do exist, at least for the males.

With the girl, it seemed to be a more generic representation otherwise they would have had more girls in it. Remember it's an "I can do that" so it's probably something trying to inspire girls to compete with more experienced players in a men-dominated field -- chess, which serves as a metaphor for Pokemon here.

Oh sorry, but the point remains the same.

A new multiregional generation could be great.

Sure would be based primarily only in one region, but the postgame could have a bonus as happened to gold and silver.

Who knows? Maybe a real world tournament On-Line?

What confuses me is what the fuck this chess event is supposed to be. Why are her opponents lined up in a row with games in progress? Is she playing several people at once? Why is there a crowd circled around them with camera phones? Where are they, even?

It's not unrealistic for a wealthy white girl to beat a bunch of no-names at a casual tournament, but I have no idea what the tournament's supposed to be

There are sometimes events where extremely high-level chess players will play games against several people at once, or do stuff like play blindfolded while having someone call out the moves, etc. It's a fun thing for people who follow chess. As >>25077928 said, Bobby Fischer, a child prodigy and maybe the greatest American player in history, was known to do that (and was also basically /pol/ incarnate)

It's not a very good one, if that's the case, as it doesn't even mention Go.

Now pretty clearly it's setting the stage for Go to be a major part of the 20th anniversary events, but it's not itself an ad for Go.

Maybe, but this is said to be the actual ad, isn't it? It certainly would fit, but why wouldn't it have been in this version, maybe just without the release date? No reason to hide what it's for, even if they want to keep the release date a surprise.

The point I failed to make: the little girl winning at chess could have been black, with the football player jock being white. Or if they really wanted to tick them spreadsheet boxes with molten magma sneaker swooshes, they could have portrayed the football player as female.

For an ad attempting to reach a wide range of people from myriad ethnic backgrounds it made some heavily misguided stereotyping choices.

What's the difference, seriously? In this day of age we shouldn't be concerned about who has what colour. A football player can be black or white, a chessplayer can be black or white. It doesn't matter.

Also, who says a football player is inherently dumb? The ad has no mention of that, that's how you interpret it.

but reminding them something is still around without letting them know something cool is on the horizon isn't going to do anything. They will say, o hey pokemon! scroll on google for 3 minutes or less, see nothing of interest, and have forgotten about it again by the next day.
there has to be the promise of a game
