When I initially learned Rosa was the first Pokemon character to have officially transitioned, it really helped me find my calling in life. If Gamefreak was ready to break down social barriers back in 2012 by introducing such an inspiring character, I figured I could make strides too. On the left is me 7 years ago. On the right is being on HRT for 3+ years. It's been an amazing journey and I honestly couldn't have done it without my SO and close friends who really understood what I was going through. I implore any other fans of Rosa to chase your dreams if you're a bit on the reluctant side to make the change. I never gave up, and neither should you.
