Hello everyone! I hope people are staying safe during these times But a little bright spot of happiness today! I'm currently working on a thesis for my media studies masters program, and part of my thesis has been published online! Yay. Here it is if people want to take a look at what I'm doing with the game. As a huge fan of Reborn, I'm glad I'm able to share it with the world in my own way. http://mediacommons.org/imr/content/avatar-selection-queer-resistance-pokemon-reborn

Hello everyone! Thank you so much for all of your responses. I wanted to open up the discussion about queer characters a little further. If you've commented on this thread already, or haven't posted yet, feel free to respond! I've seen some posts online about players/fans seeing some benefits from the queer characters/stories. Have these queer characters/stories affected you in some way? How does it feel to have queer characters in a Pokemon game? What would you like to see in terms of queer characters/stories in the future? Again, feel free to DM me or to comment below with responses. Disclaimer: I will probably cite some of these in my master's thesis. Your screen name may be shared, but will not be if you tell me you don't me to name you. Thanks!

Hello everyone! I'm currently a master's student in Media Studies and I'm working on my thesis right now. (It's basically a really really long paper!) My thesis is actually about Pokemon Reborn and part of the paper is going to be dedicated toward understanding how fans interact with the game. So feel free to sound off below! I'm looking to find some responses to a couple of questions. What led you to Pokemon Reborn? What do you think about the battle system in the game? What do you think about the stories/narrative in the game? In particular, what do you think about the queer characters in the game, like Cain and Adrienn? If you have any other thoughts outside of these questions feel free to let me know. You can always direct message me too. Disclaimer: If you do comment, I might use your response in my official thesis composition. I would most likely quote your response, possibly with your profile name as well. Thanks everyone!
