Are you ready for Pokémon to go down the otaku-pandering path and become nothing but shallow waifushit like Fire Emblem, Persona and Digimon?

That's literally wrong. There are like 10 more male gym leaders than female ones.
>e4 usually has two female members
>female champions
>female scientists
So you want the game to be a sausagefest? Having more or less the same amount of males and females in a game like this is perfectly normal. And until Gen 4 most of the relevant roles like Champion and Professor were exclusive to men.
>female npcs arguably better designed than male npcs
This one I kind of agree. Most female characters are either lewd semen demon #94959 or cute lolis, while fat and old men are everywhere.

Only in the alignment system. Persona and SMT feed into each other in the combat department, so you can't say that SMT always has better combat, and they're both hard as hell (although Persona is SUPPOSED to be notably easier the Atlus difficulty still shines through). The Fusion/Customization systems are roughly the same, too, with little variances here and there, so you can't act as if SMT has some edge there.

The only place I'd say SMT consistently has Persona beat is in spin-offs, but that's mostly because the majority of Persona's spin-offs are P3/P4 panderware, which got old REAL fast.

I'd be fine with that if it also became husbandoshit, but looking at SM I suspect it's just going to be the old and boring waifu pandering.

I'm still mad that Lillie is forced onto the player even if you play as Chicken-chan. With Gladion being completely irrelevant and basically asking you to marry his sister.

And to make things worse you can't even actually go the romantic route with Lillie because of Game Freak's "NO YURI ALLOWED ONLY SELF-INSERT OTAKU (MALE) SHOULD ENJOY THE LILLIE".

The poor Chicken was cucked out of the demo, cucked in the anime, and then cucked in the shipping game. The best she got was Ilima and he was a weird fag.

Too bad for Game Freak that she's like 20 times more popular than the male protag.

Yeah but they're usually popular because people want to fuck them. When it comes to shipping the protagonist with some female NPC, the male protag is always more popular for obvious reasons.

Chicken on the other hand is popular because people want to fuck her AND want her to fuck Lillie.

If Game Freak pulled a Leaf in Stars and retconned Chicken out of existence, making Sun the "canon" person who helped Lillie during her journey, you can bet there'd be a lot of dissatisfaction among the fanbase, especially in Japan.

There won't be because we otakushit now, and otaku hate men getting in the way of their waifus. They also hate fujoshits and otomewhales and anything that can potentially pander to them.

Males are only acceptable, of course, if said males are perverted losers or entities devoid of any personality, so it's easier to self-insert as them.

Not an opinion. It's based on game sales. It really comes down between May and Dawn because R/S and D/P are the two best selling games with a female protagonist. The reason why May takes it, however, is because of ORAS. There are a lot of people who never played R/S or D/P, but played ORAS. Add them to everyone who played the Original Gen 3 games and it's not even close.

Yeah, I remember when Pokemon had well-written female characters that weren't just waifu-bait.

I'll probably think of one while I remember all of the male characters that were interesting and well-written. There was N. I'm sure there's like a dozen more. The girls too, I'll seriously think of one any second now. Gen 1 alone probably has like a 20 of them because it was the best.

How the fuck do you correlate game sales to popularity of an MC, since you can play as either?

>It really comes down between May and Dawn because R/S and D/P are the two best selling games with a female protagonist.

Are you actually retarded? What does having a female protag have to do with sales? Where is the causation?

>the rest of the post

Not proof either.

You say one protagonist is more popular than the other, but have no proof. Take a survey in which protagonist did the players pay as, don't just spout out meaningless BS.

This is the same when people said that FemShep was the most popular one of ME. But then actual stats came out and way more people played as the male.

True, but the fanbase is still primarily male.
