Just thought this would be a good place to mention..

Sun/Moon do not ask you this question. They show you the image below and say "So which photo should I use for your Trainer Passport?". Then it asks your name. And that's it.

(Apologies if this was already known!)

 

[Platy]

We had the image, but didn't know the question.

That is awesome !

 

[Crocodile]

So the localizers (and maybe the Japanese team themselves) basically did what the OP asked for and what Pokemon Go seemed to do with no fuss or drama?

If so

Spoiler

GBTFO everyone who got salty in this thread LOL

Woop woop. Maybe some developers at GF were thinking the same thing.

That's a far better solution than anything I could think of. Removing the direct question makes the binary choice a lot more tolerable. Not an absolute ideal, but definitely progress.

Bumping, just adding they definitely do this.

Just a portrait and a name, no pronouns.

So far no pronouns in game either, at least in English. This is exactly how it should be.

There are pronouns in the English game. I don't know what you're talking about or why you're hating on them. People will still use them in daily speak throughout your life and they don't mean to offend you on purpose. There are nothing wrong with pronouns.

I'm pretty sure I remember the mom saying "my son" at least once.

 

[Elatreus]

Still waiting for that apache attack helicopter gender option.
Maybe the next game.

Are there filial terms for trans family members?

so glad this thread was bumped just we could have a new round of people threadshitting with this tired, overused, insensitive joke. yay.

HAHAHA, get it? It's an infamously transphobic meme! HAHAHAHAHA!

 

[Caelus]

The ones that just came out at least try to address the issue of transgender representation in a respectful and simple way, but you just couldn't help making a dumb joke. Smart cookie you are.

How could it possibly be any more ideal?? It can't be any more ambiguous than this.

Fuckin lol

HAHAHA, get it? It's an infamously transphobic meme! HAHAHAHAHA!

I always thought it was poking fun at this list . Transphobia isn't funny. That meme was more based around all the genders people on tumblr kept creating

Edit: I could be horribly mistaken x.x

 

[Roufianos]

I always thought that "boy" or "girl" in these games was a question of sex.

Boy being a young male and girl being a young woman as the game is aimed for kids.

 

[Orayn]

I noticed the picture thing too and thought about this thread. I suppose it does address the thoughts some people have raised by literally removing the question that had previously been used.

Can you not

 

[Rongolian]

They included only those 8 options to set-up for the Trigglypuff DLC

That's because it is. Some people read into it further though...

 

[ModBot]

At any rate, the jokes this thread got bumped with are certainly outdated.
