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.
