[Pokemon] E rating? What's that? (Spoilers)

Do I even have to explain this one? What kind of perverts are working at GameFreak to put this stuff into a kid's game?

The answer?

People who realize that it has been 20 goddamn years since the original games came out and understand that its okay to slip in an adult joke to the 30+ year-old fans who have stuck with the game since childhood.

And once again I'm reminded of how weird the ratings board can be. (not that I think this warrented an E+10 Rating, it's just that I forgot how screwy the ESRB board can be when it comes to what game warrants certain content.)

It's like the ESRB looked at this and went:

I was thinking something along the line of that, now if you'll excuse me someone just went live.

Yep, and in the meantime they'll censored J-RPGs because there's a little too much cleavage, navel or thigh showing although the games are rated M.

Wait, so we can have that but not the game corner!?

Yeah, you have fun with your digital skulls there, buddy. As for me? I'm gonna go to where the REAL skulls at!

That's really stupid. Pokemon can have bikinis and yet M-rated JRPGs can't? Ugh...

Apparently some people, mostly stupid moms, threatened with legal action due to gambling in a kid's game being "offensive" and a "bad influence".

GameFreak felt SO bad not being able to include a game corner in ORAS for more adult Pokemon players that they actually gave the game a scene where the game corner owner is closing up shop and feeling sorry about himself.
