Oooh, you know how in Ruby/Sapphire where those fishermen in Sootopolis tell you that they are looking for a big Shroomish and a big Barboach?

Shroomish are shaped like a woman's breasts.
Barboach is a phallic symbol.

So the fishermen are saying "Oh, I just love breasts/penises, especially big ones."

Creepy, eh?

If it looks like a gimmick, sounds like a gimmick...

Whether this is or not, I think you're reading a little too much into this.

I just love Pokémon's subtle in-game humour...

even if it was true... it's so lame...

the girl who checks how big your heracross' horn is on island 6 in FR/LG reminds me of sexual innuendo more then the two guys in Sootopolis...

Eek!! That's the last time I'll show him my Barboach... >.<

Really, though, I always found it odd that a fisherman would be asking for Shroomish - why would a fisherman be interested in Grass Pokémon?

Sure, you need to be a bit twisted to think of that... but unlike all other such theories I've seen, this one actually makes a little bit of sense.

"I like Heracross big horn! Want it! Love it! Heracross!" 'Nuff said. ;)

Interesting find, though... and somewhat accurate. :p

But of course, it makes perfect sence. Something which is done sometimes to certain things, such as video games, is add something ... what's the word I'm looking for... well I guess I'll just say something relating to sex because that is what is used most of the time is used... but place it in such an non-obvious spot that many people don't know that there's something wrong, but the brain can't help but think something's amiss. That makes it so the person doesn't forget it easily.

Eh, ragazzo!
The reason it is those two Pokemon is because there the same size.

Whoa, what a discovery!

hey, when the censors are busy PMSing about the anime, a few references are bound to slip through the games. Japan is a very naughty country.

you make it sound like the anime is a filthy filthy show... when really, it isn't... at all

infact I think the dub has MORE innuendo then it's original version... not that it's a bad thing...

Yeah, that's quite a bit. But the point I'm trying to make is that there is no sexual references anywhere. Why would Nintendo try to dig themselves in deeper? And why would they demean their own creatures?

That's why I think they're hilarious. I was rather put off when they changed it in Emerald.

Sex sells. :rolleyes:

Plus, you've never seen japanese GSC Trainers? There's some serious innuendo right there. ;(

OH NOS! They wink! :rolleyes:

Yet in the Anime the girls wink 24/7, and don't get edited. Plus, Nintendo abuses Fan Service. Look at Mario Sports Series...

Not to mention countless in-game quotes that can stand as lesbo depending on your gender, and sprites like this.

They're doing it everywhere. No need to complain about a VERY measly innuendo (Though it's quite suggestive indeed.).
 
I never thought about it. >_>;; lol
Seriously, I didn't. Just thought they were Shroomish and Barboach fans.

wow. I think I'm gonna have nightmares. jk
