>>39770978You're so focused on just trying to nitpick your way into the last word that you aren't even considering the initial point or acknowledging the possibility of Nessa being a black character, even with the context of Pokemon's design conventions. You're desperately grasping at whatever little detail you can to be right about anything at all.
>It is when she's the only game character with "lipstick" mouth, while the rest of the female characters have a line to represent their mouthsWhat an immense ass pull. The idea that wearing lipstick alone is a clear and universal indicator of having a stereotypical black lip profile is one thing, but the accompanying implications are just as ridiculous. This before getting to the Makeup Bag for female players last gen, Olivia, Oleana , and variations of the Beauty Trainer Class existing and disproving your premise outright.
>They can also bleach their skin and put white makeup. Does that also mean all white characters are black unless they state they are white? RetardRidiculous leap. Almost as ridiculous as assuming that not having a poofy faux-fro helps discount a character whose had their hair done from being black outright.
The reality is that Pokemon characters have subtle and few variations in facial structure and features if present at all. You pretending that the details you'd use to stereotypically identify someone with that origin being a hard necessity to even consider the possibility of a character being black is just deliberately disingenuous, especially when we've gotten to the point where the best you can cling to is trying to insist two of Lenora's already meager identifying features are somehow necessary common minimums, disregarding black folk with straightened hair or less prominent lips in the process.
