How come Game Freak returned to kid protagonists for SM, and why is it because of Yo-kai Watch?

They noticed that outside of Japan it's mostly teenagers and older playing their games.
SM protagonists are """canonically""" Japanese.

Some people think it's because the fimists are freaking out over boobs whatsoever in games, so by having the main characters be too young to show any boobs they are skirting the risk of pissing off loud harpies.

Sometimes I dream of a world where SJW and special snowflakes don't exist.

But then I wake up and I realize the nightmare is not while I sleep.

Wait, I guess you may not know that. You probably weren't born yet when they released, but ORAS are actually remakes of an older pair of games named Ruby and Sapphire. The ORAS protagonists are simply based on the RS protagonists, hence why they aren't relevant in a discussion of newer characters.

Ebin.
That doesn't stop them being 12.
In fact outside gen 5 and XY all the MCs are kids. If anything they're the exception, not the rule..

OP was talking about the main games' protags and deliberately excluded the remakes you faggots.
So, no, they're not relevant to the discussion.

And if you look at ALL of the protags, being shorter rather than taller is obviously the norm.

And if you look at pokemon's demographic you'll notice that most fans are over 18, which one could assume is why they aged up the characters in the last two generations.

And trying to appeal to older fans only is exactly how to kill a long term franchise.

OP: "New protagonists lately are older. Why aren't the SM ones also?"
(You): "But the ORAS protagonists aren't old!"
Logic: "Yes, because they aren't new."
(You): "That doesn't change the fact that they aren't old!"
Logic: "Okay, but they aren't relevant to this discussion."
(You): "So you deliberately exclude old protagonists from this discussion about new protagonists to make your point, huh? Very convenient!"

Just how stupid are you?

From now on when I edit Wikipedia articles I'll be sure to write "just Google it faggot" as the source.

And it's relevant because you're asking Pokemon to suicide the same dumb way Digimon did.

You do that, but in the meantime open up a new tab and write "pokemon's demographic"

>And it's relevant because you're asking Pokemon to suicide the same dumb way Digimon did.
I'm not asking for anything, I'm telling you they've been pandering to their older fanbase, or have you missed the gen 1 pandering of the last 3/4 years?
