Jynx after the hoohaa
jynx b4 the hoohaa

You guys should noe that the pokemon jynx used to be black in colour, which created what i think is a stupid and unnecessary fiasco. there was this african-american writer called Carole Weatherford that thought Jynx was a sign of racism, saying it was a "politically incorrect pokemon" and is a negative stereotype against african americans. Despite the fact pokemon is from japan, where black thearter wasn't prevalent. Some say that the Pokémon Jynx originated from the Japanese trend of yamanba, Nintendo apologised and changed jynx from black to purple, and warner bros. banned episodes containing jynx in offensive colours. (taken from wikipedia)

She even said in an article called "Japans' *Bigoted Exports to Kids" that the dragon ball character Mr popo was racist too. (*A Bigot is someone who is narrow-minded personwho is intolerant with opinions and thoughts differing form his or hers eg. racism etc etc)

She added that Darlie toothpaste is racist too, okay, this time i'll be honest and agree the older photo was kinda racist. But they've changed it so there's no biggie.

What i mean to say i that i think what she's blabbering about is oversensitive bullshit. Pokemon games were first release around 1996, why did she have to wait 4 long years to complain in 2000? If other people(including african americans) didn't make a big hoo-haa for 4 years, i don't undestand y she had to make a big hoohaa with it, AFTER IT WAS RELEASED FOR 4 YEARS. I think it was totally unnessasery. I didn't think that jynx looked like an african american when i first saw it, in fact, i still think it dosen't look african american. I think she's just being freaking oversensitive.
