    No offense to anyone who's non binary, but can people please stop pushing non binary characters into stories. It gets really annoying when there are like 5 non binary characters in a story that's not relevant to anything non binary. I don't hate non binary people or anything, but it's obvious when non binary people are there for nothing else other then the fact they're non binary, and it adds nothing to the story. People are forcing LGBT characters into stories for no other reason other then the fact they're LGBT. For instance, there's a side quest in Rejuvenation, that involves a shy boy who gives you a love letter to deliver to another person. Here's the surprise though, the "other person" is a boy. There's nothing inherently wrong with that, but the snarky reply the boy who gave you the letter gives you is just confirming what I'm saying. It's something along the lines of: "I'm a guy. So what?" Here's what's what. This side quest only pushes the fact that their gay in your face. You get nothing out of it. It holds no relevance to the story, and it's not even a fun side quest to do. I won't say them being gay wasn't a surprise, but I won't say it was a good one either. If anything, this only stirs more hate against gays. I'll stop there because now I'm treading into dangerous territory, but please think about this Game devs and writers and what not. Does the character being straight, gay, non binary, a sentient sun, transgender, a black hole, a satellite, or a toilet seat impact the story at all? Does it hold any meaning? If it doesn't, reconsider the character and go from there. 

    I'd actually like to hear about what people have to say about LGBT characters being forced into fiction and whatnot. They want to be treated normally right? So why force them in?

      True. Regardless, I got what I wanted. A full in depth educated discussion on LGBT Characters in fiction, and specifically Pokemon, and MORE specifically Pokemon Fangames. Thanks to anyone who participated.
