She was clearly meant to be younger up until pushback forced them to say she’s 9.

This seems innacurate as their heads should relatively be the same size for a true comparison. I think poppy's bonnet is throwing it off.

why would they get pushback? It's not like she's sexualized. If anything confirming her as older than she looks would sexualize her more

It also means that a 9-year old is good enough to be an Elite Four member, whereas the protagonist of a Pokemon game only ever starts out at the age of 10 or higher.
Poppy is canonically more of a prodigy than (You)

Dawn the video game character is mentioned to be 12 in the leaked documentation. In general your character is supposed to be right around middle school/junior high age with mostly cool older kids (high schoolers) as gym leaders before encountering older trainers who made a living off of Pokemon battles (though by this point the adults have all been given secondary jobs.)

They just needed a bait to get adult Pokemon fans to buy the game since they know most of them are sexually attracted to the underaged characters of the franchise. A cheap but simple marketing tactic

Also, they could have done that with the protagonists. Toddler lolis are too far for most lolicons, so it just doesn't make sense.

People like Dawn, Iris, Lillie, Marnie, Misty, etc. because they grew up with them. For most people Poppy would look too young by the time they're playing the franchise

I know the protagonists are always kids and beat legendaries and we've had characters like Iris as a champion, but I could always kind of keep the suspension of disbelief intact. I feel like this character takes it too far and kind of trivializes raising and battling pokemon as a whole. I guess what I'm saying is she's shit and I hate this stupid toddler.
