>>46492374>So Masuda made this garbage because he got some ice cream in New York?No iirc he told james to make a fast food mascot pokemon or something because he legit thinks americans eat mcdonalds everyday, so james thought about a mcflurry sundae and went "oohh perfect me make ice cream creature lul"
Its so hilariously racist but to be frank hes not too far off from reality. Now the other question is why they thought it was a good idea to remind murricans of their shit eating habits. The backlash was obvious in hindsight. Only europeans seem to realize its an icicile monster covered in snow that inspired ice cream in the Poke world not the other waybaround. Still doesnt excuse the initial inspiration however.
