#pokemon is my escapism utopia and by god i wont let transphobes ruin it for me

[love-is-a-pearl]

And out of spite (but also love for anipoke) here are some of my trans headcanons ùwú

Shigeru in the very first episode refers to Satoshi with the honorific -san and then later changes to -kun. Likely remembering Satoshi prefers the one more associated with men (and sato looks specially happy when he does it, fight me)

Hikari hates the Pikari nickname because SHE HAD JUST CHOSEN HER NAME and everyone then made fun of it!

Both the above work in dub too, so it's double canon

Satoshi gets binders from Team Rocket every year! They all have a red "R" stitched on somewhere (kojirou is the one who does it)

Pokemon centers provide hormone medications for any trainer in their journey who might need it

Kasumi/Misty is also a trans girl and that's why she's so settled on proving everyone she IS the prettiest of the Cerulean sisters
