I’m pretty sure it’s just Brock dumping some fucking water on a fucking staryu.Īs one of the creators of this, I can verify that everything said here is correct. in this sense, pokemon becomes not merely an anime about kids making animals kill one another, but an extended discussion on the pervasive assumptions of cisnormative culture and their affect on the individual psyche. Awesome has gotten suspended from Youtube, and never returned. This series, often shortened as P:TBS, prides itself in using humor that defies many of the Tropes typically seen in Pokmon parodies and other Abridged Series.

Oh, happy day! My staryu will be the best boy/girl ever! little does he realize that gender is not biology or chromosomes, but rather a series of expressions and interconnected modes of identity that staryu will now have to struggle with for the rest of its existence after being assigned a gender at birth.

Does pokemon actually teach you the lessons of life and what to value most in the short time. In this first clip, we see brock and ash, metaphorically representing cissexist gatekeeping doctors, “assigning” staryu, a gender-ambiguous entity, with water, a representation of binary gender roles. Is Pokemon just a show, or is it something more.
