Pokemon Champions Gave Us Trans Gallade And They're Already Taking Her Away

Pokemon Champions Gave Us Trans Gallade And They're Already Taking Her Away https://ift.tt/U9r6H5R Pokemon Champions accidentally produced a queer icon, with a game tutorial including a Gallade--historically a male-only Pokemon--labeled as female. But it looks like the game's developers are taking this trailblazer away, stating that the gender of some Pokemon seen in tutorials is one of many glitches to be patched. Players can battle against trans Gallade in a tutorial segment focused on status effects. Gallade evolves from a male Kirlia when exposed to a Dawn Stone; Kirlia can also evolve to Gardevoir when reaching level 30, regardless of gender.

According to those with firsthand knowledge we've spoken to, some dataminers briefly caught wind of "Asteria" in the game's files, and it seems to relate to a new Fortnite map. Some dataminers have even said this plainly, while others haven't been too confident or willing to make such a public declaration.

This is because of the internal naming convention Epic Games uses when referring to Fortnite maps--they're all named after Greek gods. The first map was Athena, Chapter 2's was Apollo, and the current map is nicknamed Artemis. Asteria, like these other names, is also the name of a Greek god--it even similarly starts with 'A' which seems to be important to Epic, so it's fairly certain by now that Artemis is a new Fortnite map, even if it doesn't explain why players think it's launching this year.
